How to Make Stuffed Bell Peppers and Other Comforting Creole Recipes - Eater Posted: 22 Jul 2020 09:00 AM PDT ![]() The culinary impact of the late "Queen of Creole" Leah Chase is obvious to anyone who has either been to New Orleans or is familiar with the city's cuisine. From Cajun-Creole and Creole-Italian and even "haute Creole," the city — and Louisiana at large — have taken the style of cooking in countless creative directions. One staple of Creole cooking in New Orleans is Sassafras, co-owned by mother-and-son team Sandra Duckworth and Corey Duckworth since 2004. Over the years, Sassafras has become known for Creole soul food dishes like smothered okra, fried catfish and shrimp, and stuffed peppers, with Corey manning the kitchen as chef. As part of our Eater at Home series, Duckworth is joining Eater's Instagram Live to give us an in-depth rundown of some of his favorite Creole dishes: stuffed bell peppers and a marinated trout and broccoli stir fry. Check out the recipes below for yourself. Stuffed Back Porch Pepper Makes 4 servings 1 ¼ pounds cooked ground turkey * Note: Considered similar to mirepoix in most Louisiana Creole cooking, holy trinity is a blend of yellow onion, green bell peppers, and celery. In a pan over medium heat add your holy trinity, bay leaf, green onions, and oil. Cook until onions are translucent. Add garlic and crabmeat plus 1 tablespoon of Tabasco Red Sauce and let simmer for another 5 minutes. Add your chicken broth and cooked ground turkey, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook covered for about 7 to 10 minutes so the broth reduces. Remove the pan from heat and mix in 2 1⁄2 cups of bread crumbs to the crab mixture. Then, working one at a time, stuff your blanched bell peppers with about one cup each of the mixture. Top the stuffed peppers with the remaining bread crumbs and 1⁄2 to 1 tablespoon each of butter; sprinkle each with paprika. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Trout and Broccoli Stir Fry For the trout marinade: For the stir fry: On a cutting board, slice the fresh speckled trout into 8-ounce servings. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. In a medium bowl add Tabasco Red Sauce, melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and lemon juice; mix well. Using a basting brush or your hands marinate the trout with the Tabasco mixture. Transfer trout to a plastic bag and refrigerate for at last 2 hours. Once marinated, wrap serving in aluminum foil and fold the edges. Broil at 270 degrees for 15 minutes or until cooked medium well. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil, the holy trinity, and broccoli. Cook for 5 minutes. Add rice vinegar, Tabasco Green Sauce, garlic, and soy sauce, and stir. Add the rice and cooked trout and stir fry for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Creole seasoning blend and Parmesan cheese. Garnish with fresh scallions and Tabasco Red Sauce. Enjoy! |
Suprême de Volaille Fermière à la Crème (Chicken Breast in Cream) Recipe - The New York Times Posted: 21 Jul 2020 10:10 AM PDT ![]() The author Bill Buford adapted this recipe, which he learned while working with the chef Mathieu Viannay at La Mère Brazier in Lyon, France. (Mr. Buford worked with the chef while researching his book "Dirt.") If you just made a batch of chicken stock, there are few better things to do with it than poaching chicken breasts in it. You get two benefits: white meat that is about as moist and tender as possible, and stock that is stronger than when you started, particularly if you poach the entire bird and save the legs for another night. The goal is to keep the liquid well below boiling; it's a stove-top approximation of the sous vide technique. |
Posted: 22 Jul 2020 02:00 AM PDT In this third week of our series, we are taking things to a new level; we are making dinner. For many of us, dinner is the main meal of the day, when we gather as a family to talk about the day and refuel after work or school. You may notice that some of this week's recipes involve a few more steps. We are building upon our one-pot-and-pan skills and taking on maybe two pans and learning some new techniques. None of it is difficult, but maybe this week, you grab a partner to join you in the kitchen. After all, two sets of hands are more fun and gets dinner on the table in a flash. On this week's menu: Homemade chicken strips, beans and rice and zucchini boats. Beans and riceBeans and rice is one of the most practical dishes a budding cook can learn. It is a filling combination that makes a lot of food for little money, a good thing to know when you are on a budget. In my 20s as a young journalist, I made beans and rice every week to stretch my tiny paycheck. And as you will see in the recipe, beans and rice is customizable; mix and match beans and topping as you like and come up with your own creations. Kool Tidbits:
Tool Kit:1 medium pot fitted with a lid (for rice); measuring cup and spoons; stirring spoon; sharp knife; can opener; 1 10-inch pan (for beans) Tips:
Beans and RiceMakes 5 servings. Ingredients: Rice
Directions:Place the rice pot on the stovetop. Set the heat to medium-high. Add the oil and the rice, stirring until coated. Toast the rice for about 1 minute; it's OK if it gets a little brown. Add the water and the salt. You may hear a swooshing sound; that means the temperature is right. Bring the mixture to an active, rolling boil. This might take a few minutes. Cover and reduce the heat to low. Set a timer for 12 minutes. With a fork, taste for doneness. Keep covered off heat; the rice will continue to cook. Ingredients: Beans
Directions:Place a skillet on the stove and set the heat to medium. Add the oil, stirring until it is well coated. Add the onion and cook until softened and the kitchen starts to smell like onions, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the spices and stir; the mixture may be pasty and that's OK. Add the beans, stir, and cook until you see bubble — that means it's boiling. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the mixture gets thicker, maybe 15 minutes. Add corn kernels if you like, or tomatoes. It's cook's choice. To serve, scoop 1/2 cup cooked rice into each bowl, then top with 1/2 cup beans. Serve with any of the topping options, or create a fixings bar so that everyone can create their own bowl. |
Romi Londre: It's too hot to cook - La Crosse Tribune Posted: 22 Jul 2020 12:00 AM PDT ![]() It's that time of year where some days it is just too hot to turn on the oven, stand over a stove, or even venture outside to grill. One of the best parts of summer is the abundance of fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs and that makes it easier to make healthy meals without overheating. Here are some no-cook meal ideas to help keep you and your house cool! Take advantage of summer produce to up your salad game. While lettuce and leafy greens make a great salad base, no need to limit your definition of a salad to this. Now that cucumbers and tomatoes are beginning to ripen, a vegetable Greek salad or southwest bean and vegetable salad are as easy as whipping out the cutting board and the can opener. Adding summer fruit to your salad is another way to excite your taste buds — blueberries, peaches and pitted cherries to name a few. One of my favorite summer side salads is arugula with watermelon and feta cheese. Arugula grows like a weed so even those without a green thumb or a yard can enjoy it all summer. Pasta bowls or grain Make extra pasta or quinoa on the nights it is cool enough to cook. Dress it up the next day with spinach, cherry tomatoes, drained and rinsed chickpeas, a sprinkle of feta and Italian dressing. This is a great way to exercise your creativity, get more produce in, and use up leftovers! Get your family in on the fun with a "build your own bowl" meal — offer a variety of toppings and a couple options for salad dressings and see what each person comes up with! Some topping ideas: beans, chopped chicken, bell peppers, fresh tomatoes, sweet corn, blueberries, snow peas, garnishes of walnuts, cilantro or basil. A meal doesn't have to include an entrĂ©e as long as you include servings from most of the food groups. Fill a platter with a variety of fruits, veggies, whole grain crackers or bread, cheese, etc. and go to town. Lately we like grapes, cubed melon, unsalted almonds, low sodium deli meat or seitan, whole grain crackers, cheese, cherry tomatoes, and thinly sliced radishes and cucumbers. If you're in the mood for a cold, refreshing meal you can't beat blended frozen fruit. A smoothie bowl is different from a smoothie in that you use less liquid so the final product is a thicker smoothie that can be eaten with a spoon. Place in a bowl and garnish with fresh fruit, nuts, granola, and a drizzle of Greek yogurt. It's like an ice cream sundae for dinner! The ideas above are a great way to work in more fresh produce and use up leftovers, but my favorite part is that there are no recipes required! That being said, here are a couple recipes to get your creative juices flowing: 'Berry' Refreshing Smoothie Bowl By Mayo Clinic staff Ingredients 1 small banana, sliced and cup frozen mixed
