As a gesture to help more people find and cook with this book, I’m doing a Cookbook Giveaway!! Check it out at The Frog Commissary Cookbook Giveaway. If memory serves me correctly, I was first introduced to the Frog Commissary cookbook as a kid by my uncle. He was a pretty big […]
The recipe for Anchovy-Feta Salad Dressing found in the Frog Commissary Cookbook mentions a Greek Salad composed of greens, feta, olives, green beans, tomatoes and cucumbers. I’ve added fresh dill and basil for added garden-freshness. Read on for a few salad tips.
This salad dressing comes from one of my favorite cookbooks, The Frog Commissary Cookbook. This IS the dressing you’ve been looking for. It can be used on everything from a mixed green salad, steamed broccoli, potato salad, a grilled chicken sandwich, or a topping for a pan roasted salmon fillet. […]
Traditionally, ‘our’ Italian Hot Dog is served on an Italian bread torpedo roll, has fried peppers and potatoes and comes with deli mustard. I par boil my potatoes before crisping them up in some oil. My peppers are essentially slow braised in olive oil while you make everything else. When […]
I couldn’t tell you the last time I bought salad dressing. My go-to is a nice bottle of olive oil used exclusively for dressings and either red vinegar, lemon or grapefruit juices. Often I’ll use dijon or tahini as an emulsifier. Generally, I like my dressings light and simple so […]
I’m a little in love with the microgreens I picked up from Riverwards Produce. It’s always a treat to have them out to eat because you can’t really find them in the grocery stores. Even Whole Foods only has a half-hearted, overpriced selection. So as soon as I saw the […]
I feel like scallops don’t get enough attention. They’re one of the easiest, most delicious, and healthy, sustainable land or sea foods you could eat or cook. They’re low in fat and high in protein and B-12. Your basic pan-seared Atlantic sea scallop with butter and lemon can be made […]
This Easter, mom asked that I make some ham and cheese scones for the family dinner. Sure thing moms! Now, how the heck do you make ham and cheese sconces?
You’ve got guacamole for dips, guac for toppings, guac for kids, guac for adults. Spicy, chunky, garlicy, with or without cilantro, etc. You can make it how mom made it, how the food truck makes it, or how you had it on that one trip to SoCal. Different people like […]
The Bloody Mary must have over a thousand different recipes. I used to hate them. I thought they tasted like cocktail sauce. Then I found out I was just drinking really crappy Bloody Mary’s – probably with cocktail sauce in them. I wanted to get some input on how you […]
Please find the updated version of this recipe at https://eatup.kitchen/salmon-burger/ If you cook one thing this week, make this! These delicious salmon burgers can be cooked up from scratch in less than 20 minutes. Now, when I say delicious, I’m saying this was the best thing I ate all month.
As the spring teases us with the whispers of summer, I’d like to share one of my favorite bands from my teenage summers. I put this on the other day when it was eighty plus degree in Philly. It’s pure motivation to cook, clean, dance, love, eat, play volleyball, you name […]
Previously, on Eat Up! Kitchen… I was having a hard time deciding on something quick and easy to make with the defrosting chicken breasts in my fridge. I’ve braised and I’ve nuggetted. I’ve pan roasted and I’ve souped. The weather was nice but I was feeling too lazy to clean the grill. Not […]
