five hungry girls: June 2010
http://fivehungrygirls.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Sausage in puff pastry. I've made this twice and it was a hit both times. The recipe is in Ina Garten's The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook. I did change it ever so slightly. Instead of using lamb sausage I used italian chicken sausage (mild). Because those sausages tend to be fatter, I sliced them in halve lengthwise before rolling in the puff pastry. Here is the link. Boston bakery when the article was published. Today she is a respected chef. I even saw her on Throwdown. When it's close to its expiration d...

five hungry girls: November 2010
http://fivehungrygirls.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
I just took this out of the Martha Stewart Living December 2010 issue. Her quantities were for twice as much (a party). I halved everything here for a one-bottle party for six. These cocktails are really pretty! 1 pint kumquats, pricked a few times with a pin. 1 bottle sparkling wine. Place kumquats in a saucepan. Cover with cold water. Bring to a boil. Drain immediately. Repeat twice. Spoon 3 kumquats and 1 TBS syrup into each of 6 champagne glasses. Top off with champagne. Toast, drink, enjoy. Lives in...

five hungry girls: Tiramisu
http://fivehungrygirls.blogspot.com/2010/06/tiramisu.html
I realized today that my only copy of this recipe is from the original issue of Fine Cooking (May 1999) when it was published. If that goes missing I will never forgive myself, so now here, I have a backup. Joanne Chang was a former economist with a startup. Boston bakery when the article was published. Today she is a respected chef. I even saw her on Throwdown. Doing sticky buns (she beat Bobby Flay easily). I'm making this for Father's Day dessert. It can be frozen and thawed successfully. Sift the flo...

five hungry girls: April 2010
http://fivehungrygirls.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Chipotle-Garlic Butter with Lime and Cilantro. Um, you had me at "hello? Cook's has this recipe in their March and April 2002 issue. I put it on top of pan-roasted halibut steaks. But, I bet it would be equally yummy on top of steak or something else equally decadent that doesn't need more calories but rejoices when you dollop it on top. Sigh. 1/2 stick of unsalted butter, softened. 1 chipotle chile en adobo, minced. 1 garlic clove, minced. 1 tsp grated lime zest. 2 tsps minced fresh cilantro. 1 Mince 2 ...

five hungry girls: December 2009
http://fivehungrygirls.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Lebanese Lentil and Rice Pilaf with Blackened Onions. This recipe is wonderful. It's vegetarian and exactly what we needed after a week of overindulging in Puerto Rico. I usually slice up cucumbers and tomatoes to eat alongside. I also make the flatbread that is in Cook's Jan/Feb 1999 issue. Http:/ www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Lebanese-Lentil-and-Rice-Pilaf-with-Blackened-Onions-108813. 2 TBS orange liqueur (I used Cointreau). I've made it three times successfully without a baguette pan. 34 ounc...

five hungry girls: September 2009
http://fivehungrygirls.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Note: the recipe is from the Barefoot Contessa on Food Network. 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts (I used a bag of frozen ones). 3 tablespoons good olive oil. 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt. 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grilled Snapper with Olives and Oranges. This sounds like an unlikely combination but the fruit "salsa" is pretty and quick and really good. Prep time: 15 mins. Cook time: 8 mins. 1-1/2 c. orange sections, chopped (sweet is good: I used mineolas). Lives i...
