Best White Wine Recipes

This easy fondue recipe, which has been adapted from my family's cookbook, uses just a few ingredients and makes a satisfying, cheesy dish, perfect for an appetizer or an entire dinner.

Cooking with lobster garners tons of bragging rights and maybe even a few Facebook status updates. It’s not just that they are a hot commodity or that any dish is made better by them, it’s that you so rarely hear of home cooks getting to play around with those delicious-when-dunked-in-butter creatures.So when it came time to drum up a lobster recipe, I didn’t waver at all. Fresh lobster goes perfectly with a steaming plate of buttery, white wine-y, herby linguine. I was pretty excited to make this at home as it’s something I’d savor in a restaurant. It’s not a particularly difficult recipe, you just have to pay close attention to the timing of everything. Click here for more lobster recipes. 

While there’s nothing quite like enjoying a boiling pot of cheesy fondue with a hunk of crusty bread, sometimes you’re at a loss when you don’t have a fondue pot on hand. Here’s our solution: fondue fries.  Fondue is actually incredibly easy to make, so let those fries take the place of the pot and the bread and serve it as a sauce rather than something to dip into.

Big, fat, stuffed artichokes, beer-battered artichokes, and Ball jars stacked to the brim with baby marinated artichokes are what you'll find in my kitchen on a regular basis. Since we're trying to think lean during this no-holds-barred holiday season, I thought it might be nice to lessen the load and grill them this time around.  Slathered in a blend of garlic, shallot, and butter, sprinkled with grainy sea salt, and lightly grilled — these artichokes won't taste light at all!
