Oysters Rockefeller With Fresh Herbs and a Dash of Absinthe

Your Recipe of the Day No Images? Click here Oysters Rockefeller​ Oysters Rockefeller is a decadent New Orleans classic that is often imitated but rarely duplicated—because the original recipe is a carefully guarded secret. This version ditches the spinach found in most attempts at recreating the dish (despite there being no evidence to support its inclusion) and brightens things up with fresh herbs. Read More → The Kitchen Essential Rock Salt Lay down an even layer of rock salt (sometimes labeled "ice cream salt") on a sheet tray, and place the oysters on top of it before broiling. The large crystals will keep the oysters in place and generate a nice amount of heat around the shells.

BraveTart's Sugar-Toasting Technique Will Change the Way You Bake

Your Recipe of the Day No Images? Click here Toasted Sugar Toasting sugar in a low oven allows it to slowly caramelize without sacrificing its crystalline structure. The result is a sort of "granulated caramel" that can be used in any recipe as a one-to-one substitution for plain sugar. A mere hour of toasting will dramatically tame the sugar's sweetness, while extended periods of time will build a more intense caramel flavor.  Read More → The Kitchen Essential A Food Processor Deeply caramelized sugar can be superclumpy. Stirring from time to time helps release entrapped moisture but not enough to stop it from cooling into hard, lava rock–like pieces. Fortunately, these chunks are highly porous and easily demolished in a food processor, where they can be ground until powdery and fine.

Tools and Equipment for the Best Game-Day Feast

For Nacho Average Football Food No Images? Click here   Who cares who's playing? Not sure. Who cares what's cooking? Everyone​! Below are all the tools you need for killer nachos, perfect chile, and fantastic cocktails to make your team feel like winners on game day. A Rimmed Baking Sheet Use a rimmed baking sheet to keep your nachos with melty cheese and tons of toppings contained. The best part? You can take the sheet straight from the oven to the table. Once the nachos have been demolished, rinse the sheet pan, line it with parchment paper, and use it for a big batch of cookies. A Wire Rack Make sure your fried foods stay crisp and delicious with a wire rack that can fit right over a rimmed baking sheet. Then use it to cool the cookies (if you have the patience to wait).  A Cast Iron Pan Cast iron pans are the true game-day MVP. Use them for nachos, this gorgeous brown butter cornbread tamale pie, garlic knots, and even dessert. Might we recommend Stella's skillet cookie for your crew?     A Waffle Iron This may be unconventional, but a waffle iron is an excellent tool for game day. Use it to waffle all sorts of things, like this puff pastry and pepperoni combo. Our buffalo chicken waffle recipe is a great twist on classic game-day grub.    A Pressure Cooker Been wondering what to do with your new Instant Pot? Whip it out to make one-hour chile con carne or our simple, super flavorful chile verde. (If you don't have one, now's the time to get it.) A Dutch Oven Grab yourself a Dutch oven if only to make this gorgeous pulled pork. Use it to top your nachos or tacos or eat it with a fork right out of the pot.  A Punch Bowl Don't waste your time with individual cocktails for your party. Make things easy on yourself with a big-batch recipe (like Aperol gin punch) and a nice big punch bowl. This one has glasses and a ladle included.  Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.
