One of my favorites. This soup was an adventure for me to experiment and try to perfect. The French Onion Soup also has a lot of history traced back to ancient Rome 8,000 years ago. The French Onion Soup we know today was developed in Paris, France in the 18th century. Although a lot of chefs now are trying to refine it further, there is a base standard for it to be called a French Onion Soup;

• Has to be made with Beef stock, not broth.
• Caramelized onions
• Cheese (many chefs argue the use of Gruyere cheese)
• Bread
• Stock
• Garlic

What is the difference between stock and broth?

well, a stock is a liquid that is created by cooking bones, while broth is used by cooking the meat. Both share the same Mirepoix (a Mirepoix is Onions, Carrots, Celery. The ratio is 50% Onion, 25% carrot, 25% Celery). Although a…

This is a one-pan meal that is delicious and easy to make. I love to serve with mashed potatoes, but roasted potatoes and rice would work well. Be sure to use a high quality heavy bottom pan that can be transferred to the oven. This will ensure you get a great sear and give the chicken a beautiful golden crust. I love the flavor of the veggies as they braise the chicken in a little wine and lemon. Look for frozen artichokes for best results, but you could rinse the canned ones as a substitute. This is a nice make ahead option for a busy family.

Serves 4-6

Ingredients:

• 6 bone in skin-on chicken thighs
• 1 large fennel bulb, thinly sliced
• 6 shallots, thinly sliced in rounds
• 12 oz frozen artichoke quarters, thawed
• 2 lemons, sliced
• 1/4 cup wine
• kosher salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoons unsalted…

Bourekas are a family
favorite and not just because they are uber delicious, with all the flaky
layers of butter dough. It is because they are so easy to make. Truth be told, this
recipe is extremely easy and quick because the pasty puff is store brought. It
would take me hours if I prepared the pasty puff dough at home. It is possible
but just very time consuming. This was perfect quick filling meal after work on
a weekday night!

meats, cheese and or vegetables, with either a thin pasty or puff pastry crust.
