There are plenty of whole-grain crackers on store shelves, but none taste as good to me as those made at home. You can use a mix of grains and flours to make them, including gluten-free varieties like...
You find these mushrooms served in little ceramic casseroles at tapas bars all over Spain. It's a simple hors d'oeuvre that can be made ahead and reheated. In Spain, it would be made with about four times...
Crackers can be made with just flour and water (as in water crackers, or matzo), but like almost everything else, they're better with richer ingredients. These are typically made with butter, oil, and...
Pan con tomate is traditionally a humble dish, a way to make a single tomato and some old bread serve a family for lunch. For Tertulia's version, use a box grater to shred the best tomato you can find....
This combination of miso and butter is natural and delicious, too. Miso butter looks a little like cake frosting and is just as easy to lick off the fingers. With the egg yolk dripping onto the butter...
The textures in this delicious recipe for pajeon, traditional Korean scallion-based pancakes, are manifold: meaty from the squid, crunchy yielding to soft from the fried bits of batter, juicy from the...
The purchase of an electric deep fryer inspired a backyard deep-frying shindig. For this recipe, I got the crunchiest results from a classic flour/egg/bread-crumb method. Dip the food in flour, then in...
Roasted nuts are standard snacks, and almonds are a healthy food. But it is easy to eat too many. I find that if they are a little spicy or hot, delicious as they are, they are not quite as addictive.
This makes a delightful hors d'oeuvre, appetizer or even a light supper. If you're serving it as an hors d'oeuvre you can spoon it onto cucumber rounds, small endive leaves or toasted pita triangles. The...
"Pissaladiere, a specialty in the Nice region of France, is a type of pizza usually made with fresh bread dough that is covered with onions, anchovy fillets, black olives and, sometimes, tomatoes, then...
This is a fresh, tangy salad, loaded with sweet-sour flavor and given a good crunch by toasted hazelnuts. The bitter endive and peppery watercress complement each other beautifully, and it's all tarted...
If you deep-fry properly - allowing the oil to reach 360 to 375 degrees, letting it return to high temperature between batched, and not crowding the pan with items - your food will not absorb much of the...
I'm usually not a big fan of sweet kettle corn, but I wanted to make a moderately sweet version because some people love it and it is nice to be able to offer a sweet snack for the holidays. I realized...
All my other relatives served gefilte fish at holiday meals, but not Aunt Sandy. Instead of breaking the fast on Yom Kippur with gefilte fish, kugel and bagels and lox, she made potage Parmentier, pesto...
I've been wanting to offer some gluten-free baked goods for some time, and crackers are a good place to start. I used a bit of butter to get a better texture, because when I used only olive oil, the resulting...
