Randy's Famous Margarita

Sun, 01 Mar 2009 18:31:08 -0500

The secret is the amaretto. We made 7 different versions of the same margarita to find the perfect flavors. . .it was a fun day to say the least! We juiced our own limes and oranges which I highly recommend. -- posted by JanuaryBride

Tamborine Chicken

Mon, 02 Mar 2009 17:51:56 -0500

This tangy chicken works well with salad or rice and is delicious both cold and hot. You can cook this dish straight away, or if you have time you can keep it in the fridge for up to a day while the flavours work their magic. This recipe is based on one found in an old South African cookbook, which said that tamborine is a local name for a lime tree. -- posted by English_Rose

Texas Lime Pie

Thu, 05 Mar 2009 01:39:46 -0500

I needed to use up some fresh limes, and I wanted to make a pie. This is the perfect balance between sweet and tangy. You could probably get away with lime juice from your fridge too. I cheated and used a Marie Callender's pre-made crust to cut down on time, but I do think the graham cracker crust would be even better. Super simple, and you feel like you got a 2-for-1 deal because it makes 2 pies. I found this recipe in America's Best Church Supper Recipes/Taste of Home from Diane Bell of Manvel, Texas. Next time you have a potluck, make 2 pies and keep 1 at home to enjoy. Loved this with fresh whipped cream...MMMM. Waiting for the pie to chill is the hardest part of making this pie. Cook time excludes chilling time. -- posted by AmyZoe

Coconut Lime Smoothie

Thu, 02 Apr 2009 01:46:54 -0400

I was just wanting to try to make something new and this is what I threw together. You can't taste the spinach AT ALL. Tastes very limey - add coconut milk if you have it to balance it out if you want. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What's great about this pairing is that the ascorbic acid, the vitamin C, in the limes helps the body absorb the iron found in the spinach. Without vitamin C mixed with the spinach, the human body only takes 20% of the available iron in the spinach! Drink up! -- posted by ThatSouthernBelle

A Mayonnaise That Won't Make Your Heart Explode

Sat, 25 Apr 2009 14:59:23 -0400

This has a Peruvian twist on it (the limes) that you could always leave out. Vegetable oils are usually made out of rapeseed (canola) or cottonseed oil - both which are actually industrial oils and not fit for human consumption, or soybean oil which damages the thyroid. Try Spectrum's high oleic, expellar pressed Safflower oil in this mayonnaise - don't use the partially hydrogenated stuff. -- posted by ThatSouthernBelle

Sat, 25 Apr 2009 15:32:35 -0400

Cooking Light's Citrus Chicken Cutlets

Fri, 08 May 2009 01:39:10 -0400

This is a fast, easy, and healthy recipe that makes a very moist and flavourful chicken. If you double the marinade you can pour it over some rice and have a complete (and delicious) dinner. Also, if you have the time, let the chicken marinate for longer- it will be even juicier. The marinade would also work well with a mild fish. Recipe is from Cooking Light Magazine (October 2006). -- posted by blucoat

Grilled Scallops With Mexican Corn Salad

Mon, 18 May 2009 14:08:36 -0400

Recipe by Nick Fauchald, From Pairing of the Day: June 2008, Beer vs Wine in F&W Magazine, June 2008 edition. In this spicy salad, plump grilled scallops sit on top of charred corn tossed with the ingredients in "elote", an irresistible Mexican corn-on-the-cob street snack. Faced with the spiciness here.:) Sam Calagione chose the refreshing Allagash White, a low-alcohol wheat beer that won't make the chile's heat taste harsh. Marnie Old zoomed in on the salad's smoky nuances and selected moderate oaky 2006 Alma Rosa Chardonnay, from California. She likes to pair oaky wines with grilled foods , she says "oak gives the same kinds of smoky flavors that grilling gives food." There is a 10 minute "standing" time to allow some flavors to marinate which I didn't include in the preparation time. -- posted by Manami

Green Chili Guacamole

Fri, 22 May 2009 01:59:06 -0400

My standby guac recipe has bacon in it and I needed to whip something up for a BBQ that was hosted by a vegetarian. Not wanting to run to the store I raided the pantry and decided 'what the hey', I'll see what I can come up with. I couldn't have been happier with the result. Even a guy at the cookout that was from Mexico said it was better than his grandmothers. Now that's a compliment. I do recommend leaving it in the fridge overnight for best results. Enjoy!!! -- posted by Bekah49036

Mini-Corncakes With Avocado & Lime Salsa

Wed, 29 Jul 2009 02:38:17 -0400

"Put very simply, canapés are nothing more than tops and bottoms with endless variations ensuring you will never, ever get bored with serving them." This is what The Passionate Cook, Johanna Wagner, has to say! They give you sustenance while chatting before sitting down to the meal. In all supermarkets thwew is a wide selection of pre-made finger food; vol-au-vents, mini quiches [which are awesome!] salmon rolls, or cheese bites, but isn't it more satisfying making your own??? This canapé consists of a fritter made with (fresh, frozen or canned) corn and a simple batter & adding chilli flakes and coriander! This dish can be made with another type of bottom and store-bought salsa & guacamole, season it(to make it your own) serve with coriander leaves & VOILA! ;) -- posted by Manami

Smoky Strip Steaks With Chimichurri Sauce

Tue, 01 Sep 2009 12:07:52 -0400

From: July Fourth, Published July 2007, on the Grill & Pairing of the Day: Big, Balanced Red Wines, July 2008, Food & Wine Magazine, Recipe by Laurent Tourondel. The chimichurri sauce made with parsley, garlic & olive oil is the ubiquitous accompaniement to grilled meats in Argentina; when serving steak, Chef Turondel often prefers its clean, sharp flavors to richer French sauces like bernaise or red wine sauce. The tang of chimichurri is especially delicious with his smokey steaks, seasoned with both smoked sea salt and smoked pepper.

Scallop and Mango Ceviche With Thai-Lime Dipping Sauce

Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:11:05 -0400

This dipping sauce, fresh with herbs and tangy with lime, is Blue Ginger's, Ming Tsai's restaurant, most requested recipe. It's based on the traditional Thai dip called cha-gio, which gets its flavor from fish sauce. That salty ingredient is nicely balanced with lime juice. The herbs darken as the sauce ages; this isn't a taste problem (quite the opposite, as the flavor deepends over time) but the sauce will lose it looks. If this bothers you make and store the sauce "base" only, then chop & add the herbs an hour before serving it.Ceviche is food "cooked" without heat. As with all ceviches, freshness is key. Make sure your scallops are pristine enough to eat raw. This technique uses citric acid or vinegar to firm and therefore"cooked". Here, mango adds its exotic sweetness to scallops, which cook in the flavorful dipping sauce. Ming Tsai - ming.com - Episode 105, Tags: sauce, appetizer, scallops or mangoes. ;) -- posted by Manami

Shredded Brussels Sprouts & Scallions (Gourmet)

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:37:21 -0500

An easy and delicious recipe from Gourmet Magazine (March 1996). You can make this ahead of time and rewarm before serving (even in the microwave!). Perfect for Thanksgiving or a holiday meal. Another very good twist on this recipe is to replace the lime juice with balsamic vinegar and the scallions with shallots. Yum! -- posted by blucoat

Ginger-Garlic Shrimp With Tangy Tomato Sauce by Kerry Simon

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 09:42:10 -0500

"The marinade for these shrimp is a piquant mix of lemon juice, garlic, ginger, basil and parsely - which would taste just as wonderful with chicken or pork. The dipping sauce is almost chutney-like with chunks of whole tomatoes, lemongrass and lime juice add tang." Chef Kerry Simon is the creator of this dish - F&W Newsletter - October, 2009. When we made these for a small group - we served it with herbed angel hair pasta with Parmesan and a green leafy salad.It takes 2 hours to marinate - we prepared it early in the day and served it about 3 o'clock - absolutely wonderful! ;) -- posted by Manami

Coconut Lime Stars

"These crunchy, buttery cookies have a refreshing tropical taste from the toasted coconut in the batter and a tart lime frosting. Reeah Parker of Germantown made these for her son in the Marines one summer and they were such a hit, she now makes them year-round, cutting them into holiday shapes." Found this recipe in The Washington Post - almost an amuse-bouche for a Christmas platter. Refreshing, tart, wonderful! Thank you Reeah! ***Note - prep time includes a 30 minute chill time for the dough*** -- posted by Buster's friend

Easy Thai Green Curry

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:35:24 -0500

This is one of my favorite curry recipes. It is incredibly easy but tastes like it took hours to make. It's a great starter curry for anyone looking to venture into the world of curry cookery for the first time. This is a versatile recipe; I've made it with both chicken or red meat, so I leave the meat choice up to the chef. -- posted by SarahCKS
