Boom’s Glazed Doughnuts
There’s something truly special about keeping family traditions alive, especially in the form of recipes passed down through generations. One of my most cherished family recipes is my grandmother’s homemade doughnuts. While they require a bit of practice and patience, the end result is absolutely worth every minute. Imagine a golden, crispy exterior with a tender, melt-in-your-mouth interior—this isn’t just any doughnut, it’s a taste of family tradition.
Honeynut Squash Carbonara
I love using the sweet roasted flesh of honeynut squash with egg yolks, from Pete and Gerry’s eggs, for a luxurious, emulsified pasta sauce, butternut will work beautifully. The natural sweetness and richness from roasted squash help prevent carbonara from drying out, ensuring every strand of pasta is thoroughly coated in a creamy, flavorful sauce.
Mango Tiramisu
This is an interpretation of a Filipino dessert called a Mango Float. I substituted lady fingers or sponge cookies and soaked those in mango juice as opposed to the traditional espresso that is used to make tiramisu. Thus, Mango Tiramisu was born.
Stuffed Mushrooms
Holiday season is nearly here. Make these stuffed mushrooms as a last minute appetizer that requires very little prep. They come together in less than an hour.
Hawaiian Garlic Shrimp
Hawaiian Garlic Shrimp is the dish you didn’t know you needed in your life. Take shrimps with their shells on, shallow fry until the shells are crispy, and then toss in a seductive and sweet garlic butter sauce. Move over Shrimp Scampi.
