Gluten Free Valentine's Day

Elizabeth has some excellent recipes. Also, any recipe for flourless chocolate cake would be perfect for Valentine's.

Challenge: Post Your Best Wing Recipe.

I parboil wings for 10 minutes, drain, and toss with a little oil, Then I grill them until crispy. Toss with the hot sauce recipe from the back of the Frank's bottle. These are excellent and don't require deep frying!

First Timer in New Orleans: Where to Eat?

For beer drinkers, I recommend Crescent City Brewhouse. A flight of their beers and a dozen on the half shell make a terrific lunch.

Cabbage Rolls - Filling & Sauce Helps, Pretty Please

Sorry if somehow I end up posting this twice.
Serious Eats has an excellent cabbage rolls recipe. I use it all of the time.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: The Sriracha Lover's Ultimate Gift Pack

When my son was in high school, he would carry a bottle of Sriracha in his backpack and would use it on his tater tots like the other kids used ketchup. It made him pretty popular!

I like to mix it with some Frank's to make an extra hot sauce for wings.

Food Gifts in the Office

I have two staff members to whom I always send something from American Spoon Foods. I think their favorite item so far has been the very simple Cherry Berry Nut Mix. Which reminds me, I need to order!

Nut Liqueurs for Holiday Drinking

@kdroste, I don't think the Praline is all that new. I've been buying it for at least a couple of years. I like it mixed with with espresso flavored vodka or with the espresso vodka and cream. Since I work in academia, I've named these drinks the Nutty Professor Eddie Murphy and the Nutty Professor Jerry Lewis.

Cranberry Walnut Pie

I'm getting pretty frustrated with your insistence on using weights. Couldn't you at least also give standard measurements in tablespoons, etc? I'm not about to go out and buy a digital scale so that I can measure 5.6 ounces.

Gluten Free........

As a sufferer of IBS, I found that eating a wheat-free diet really improved my health. I'm not sure that the problem is actually with gluten, though. New research out of Australia indicates that many of us have problems digesting certain sugars (which are collectively known as FODMAPs). Still, the easiest way to avoid wheat is to eat a gluten-free diet. There are many more of us IBS sufferers than diagnosed celiacs which may explain why so many are eating GF diets.

anyone have a different version of pecan pie?

Take a basic pecan pie recipe and add a couple of squares of melted baking chocolate and a shot of bourbon. Heavenly!
