Serious Eats: semper083's Profile

So hard to pick just one. I like my lobster and crab boiled. Clams stir fried in a hot wok with black bean sauce. Shrimp with lots of garlic and lemon.

Cook the Book: The Essence of Chocolate

My first taste of molten chocolate cake will always remain with me.

Cook the Book: 'Baking Unplugged'

I was fixated with having a proper tea and eating scones after reading Victorian literature in high school. I tried making scones one day but they turned out to be more like dry hockey pucks.

Cook the Book: 'Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics'

Lemon yogurt cake is my signature dessert based on an Ina Garten recipe. My go-to entree is pan roasted chicken.

Cook the Book: 'The Modern Baker'

Biggest baking success was a fudgy chocolate cake that came out impeccably... I'm still not sure why. :)

Cook the Book: Lidia's Italy

Roasted rack of lamb for dinner and a fudgy chocolate cake for dessert... both are pretty simple but super tasty.

So hard to choose just one! I'll say nothing beats a good yellow cake with chocolate frosting.

Cook the Book: Nigella Express

I like to make a big batch of soup, stew, or chili and freeze half of it for the future. Also for Italian sausage, I only use about two links at a time. When I buy a pack, I divide it up into separate freezer bags, so that I don't have to defrost the entire package.

Cupcakes, unmolded onto a plate and drizzled with chocolate sauce or plated with whipped cream. Simple but tasty and always a crowd pleaser.

http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/ is one of my favorites (along with SE, of course!) - her entire blog receives several visits a day from me as I check to see if there is anything new - I discovered this delightful site this summer - I've tried several of her recipes, and am smitten - I'd really love to win her cookbook!
