Steak au Poivre - The Showstopper I have a comment on this comment, then I have a comment for the OP. To Amy: Removing to foil is simply a way to keep the steaks warm whilst resting (FOR 5 MINUTES AT LEAST… ALWAYYYS!). When the OP says remove to foil, he/she doesn’t mean to wrap them tightly. They mean to place them in a plate, and form a loose ‘covering’ of foil. This will simply trap some of the heat and allow it to remain warm, without trapping too much moisture. To the OP and to anyone else who decides to try ‘flambe’: It is important to note: When you add cognac or any other high proof liquour to a hot pan, then ignite, you are not burning the alcohol itself, per se. - Never light alcohol while there is an open flame/heat source. - Notice how in the OP, they remove the pan from the stove and then light. - Keep a heavy lidded pan nearby, just in case things Do go awry (if you follow the first 2 tips, they won’t) - Always have at least an ABC rated fire extinguisher within arm’s reach

These Exist!? Zipzicles Are Ziploc Bags Designed For Popsicles We’re getting a bit nostalgic here today. What did you call the ice pops that came in a sealed plastic tube and that you generally bought in a box of at least 50? At Brit HQ some of us knew them as Otter Pops, others as Flav-or-Ice, and still others as freeze pops. Whatever you called them, we can all agree that they were delicious, especially when eaten poolside or at a backyard BBQ. That’s why we were excited when we came across Zipzicles, a new product that makes it easy to make your own ice pops. What could be better than getting a bit buzzed off of an ice pop? The first step for all the recipes is to make a batch of simple syrup, which like its name implies, is actually quite simple. You can make as much simple syrup as you like, just use a one to one ratio. You can’t go wrong with a classic strawberry margarita.

10 Easy Crock-Pot Freezer Meals - Mommy's Fabulous Finds A couple of months ago I started meal planning with crock-pot freezer meals. They have been a huge help and make dinner time not only easier but stress free. I no longer have to worry about what I am cooking last minute, or run to the store to grab take-out since we have nothing prepped at home. When we come home from sports or other activities, I know there is a warm meal all ready in the crock pot. We recently used up all of our crock pot freezer meals so I decided to compile a new list of recipes to try. Update: I have made all 10 of these recipes on a number of occasions, my son is a huge fan of the Teriyaki Pork Chops and is always requesting it for dinner, in fact we had them again tonight served on top of rice with corn on the cob. I use a Hamilton Beach 6-Quart Oval Stay Or Go Slow Cooker .The meals are cooked for 2 adults and 2 young children (ages 3 & 5), and there is always leftovers for lunch the next day.

How to Thaw a Frozen Steak in Minutes « Food Hacks It's a basic law of cooking: whenever you're really craving something, you don't have it. All you want is a glass of wine? Chances are you finished the bottle while braising meat last night. Want nothing more than a sandwich right now? Yep, you finished the bread with breakfast. Don't Miss: Why Perfectly Cooked Steaks Require More Than One Flip I can't help you with the non-existent wine or bread, but I can help you with the frozen steak, thanks to one of my all-time favorite food hacks: thawing a steak in minutes, without hurting it at all. Step 1Remove Your Steak from the Freezer I probably didn't need to tell you to remove the steak from the freezer in order to thaw it. Your best option is a ziplock bag (preferably one that's already vacuum-sealed). Step 2Add Water to a Metal Pot You don't need to add a ton of water to the pot, just enough to make it heavy. Step 3Place Your Pot on the Steak Step 4Wait In a mere matter of minutes, your steak will be perfectly thawed. Steak It Up

Eggs in Hell (Shakshuka) - The Cooking Jar So I was going to post a chicken shawarma recipe today then I realized it was Halloween and I had done nothing to even acknowledge its existence on the blog. I don’t bake so I can’t do all those fancy Halloween cookies and cake that really make Halloween food fun. But what is Halloween food really? And then it randomly hit me. So I abandoned my chicken shawarma (which you’ll see in the next post) and set off to make some eggs in hell. The fact that I was able to come up this unplanned post at the very last minute just goes to show how easy it is to put together. I modified the recipe a little mainly through the spices because I wanted more flavor. I used a decent amount of cayenne to spice it up a little but not enough to make it super spicy. The Parmesan adds a nice touch to things. You’ll notice the eggs will start to sink while it’s cooking. And lastly, a word of warning: this is messy to cook. Happy Halloween, guys!
