When I'm not totally wiped
out from helping out at the store, and can drag myself away from our webpage,
I love to cook. Here are some of the variations I've come up with.
(This page is the direct result of a customer (Thanks, Brendan!)
asking me how to cook mahi-mahi---check out Tangy Barbecued Fish Steaks
for a quick & easy recipe!)
Kitchen Gadgets..
..Widgets and Gizmos....I've got 'em...I love em. Drawers full of neat 'lil things. Decided that I'll share some of them here.
MISTO® ~ misto.com If you cook with oils this is the greatest thing since sliced bread! I have one I use for olive oil...I'm planning on getting others with a different colored bands for the other oils that I like to work with.
AccuSharp® ~ accusharp.com We sell these at the bait shop...best sharpener we've ever used! Sssssh..don't tell the manufacturer, but I've used the 001 model to sharpen my scissors...worked just fine.
Cooking Supplies
There are tons of places to shop for goodies locally and on the web.
Mmmmmm. Coffee....
Cooks Corner ~ www.cookscorner.net This is one of my favorite local places for gourmet coffees, teas and lots of those kitchen widgets that I adore!
I've put together a few players with cooking tips and/or recipes that I found helpful...or just really cool. These will pop up in a new window, so unblock or allow the popup.
How to Use Cooking Knives
- This is a batch of 10 videos with detailed info on Kitchen knives and how to use them. Very well done.
Cooking - Food Preparation
- This is a batch of 4 videos (so far) related to preparing food for cooking. How to butterfly a chicken breast, how to prep a japanese blowfish (ok - not relevant to NJ coast, but really, really cool to watch!), how to cut shallots. One is actually a recipe for tequila shrimp skewers...but I haven't made a recipe player yet so for now, it's in here.
