GARLICVS MAXIMVS: beach blondies with corona and lime
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012/08/beach-blondies-with-corona-and-lime.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Thursday, August 9, 2012. Beach blondies with corona and lime. Believe it or not, I actually made these Corona Blondies back in January for an Oscars party. I added lime zest and juice to the original recipe and called them Hawaiian Corona Blondies in honor of nominee The Descendants. I did start off with a recipe for corona-blondies. These are definitely a fairly sweet dessert, and if you go with the glaze like I did, they are also a bit of a sticky mess, but I don'...

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: squid and leeks braised with red wine/foie gras ravioli with cherry balsamic gastrique
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012/11/squid-and-leeks-braised-with-red.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Thursday, November 1, 2012. Squid and leeks braised with red wine/foie gras ravioli with cherry balsamic gastrique. Back in April, Nathan and I celebrated our four year anniversary. As he's a law student and I'm a terminally underpaid editorial assistant, we opted to stay in and prepare a fancy meal for ourselves, much as we did for Valentine's Day. Squid and Leeks in Red Wine. Adapted from Richard Olney’s Simple French Food. Via the Amateur Gourmet. 2 cups red wine.

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: January 2012
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Tuesday, January 17, 2012. Butter-fried potato and apple slices with porcini mushrooms, shallots, parsley and sage. Man, I cant believe how January is already flying by! And here I am, still blogging about something I made back in October. Luckily, this meal was mainly root vegetables and apples, which store pretty well throughout the winter, so this is still fairly. Friday, January 13, 2012. Pork chops and apples in mustard cream sauce. Tuesday, January 10, 2012.

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: June 2012
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Monday, June 25, 2012. Sunday, June 24, 2012. I am, in general, a pretty big sports fan. As a child, I may have asked my grandma to read me recipes instead of stories, but once I learned to read I also used to pour over the sports sections of Newsday. Every morning, obsessing over baseball standings. Saturday, June 16, 2012. Spaghetti with raisins and spinach. This pasta dish was actually spun off a couple. Friday, June 15, 2012. Thursday, June 14, 2012. And how Nath...

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: romantic dinner
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012/06/romantic-dinner.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Monday, June 25, 2012. I knew that I wanted to make a duck dish for the main course, and I ended up using a combination of two recipes. Nathan wasn't able to track down the cherries for this one. So while we did employ that pan-fried-then-roasted cooking technique, we switched out stone fruit for citrus and made duck with orange gastrique. Duck Breast with Orange Gastrique. Adapted from Martha Stewart's Cooking School. 1 orange, zest the skin and reserve the juice.

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: April 2012
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Thursday, April 26, 2012. Bacon-y carrot potato crusted pie. Sometimes all it takes is a photo, and a recipe will jump the line straight to the top of my to cook list. A ridiculously rustic pie, with a burnished filling of caramelized carrots and bacon. Why dont you twist my arm a little harder, photographer blogger lady man sir? Monday, April 23, 2012. Garlicky broccoli rabe, fresh mozzarella and tomato jam sandwich. Sunday, April 22, 2012. Where do I even start?

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: May 2012
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Bacon blue cheese quinoa/porcini rubbed pork chops. Ive always been extremely, extremely skeptical about quinoa. Thats like health food, right? No thanks, Ill pass. So what made me pick up a bag? A recipe where the other ingredients are bacon, blue cheese, spinach and cannellini beans, obviously. Monday, May 28, 2012. A good pot of lentils. Back in December Bon Appetit posted a so-called food lovers cleanse. Sunday, May 13, 2012.

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: olive oil tuna spread
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012/06/olive-oil-tuna-spread.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Sunday, June 10, 2012. Olive oil tuna spread. Nathan likes to make fun of pantry meals. You know, when people brag about "oh you know I just dug through my cupboard and pulled out some dried goods and some canned goods and threw this and that together and voila! A filling, hearty and tasty meal that also happens to be totally thrifty! So really there's just no pleasing him. Being inspired by the ingredients at hand is apparently obnoxious now. It's also a perfect way...

GARLICVS MAXIMVS: white bean salad/mustard maple carrots
http://garlicusmaximus.blogspot.com/2012/08/white-bean-saladmustard-maple-carrots.html
Two cooks, innumerable garlic cloves. Wednesday, August 8, 2012. White bean salad/mustard maple carrots. Like my most recent entry (which was a while ago, sorry), this post doesn't feature the best looking photograph, but it does have one new take on a Cascone classic, as well as two brand new side dishes, so I hope that will help to make up for the poorly lit picture. First, there was macaroni and cheese, covered fairly extensively. In this particular instance, I had found a recipe. I did manage to snea...
