About this Cook

I love reading Cook's Country. It offers a pragmatic, in-depth analysis of the recipes they publish. And they kitchen-test their recipes to make them fairly fool-proof.

My favorite things to cook

I've always loved Italian and meditarranean food. I especially love to grill and make a great steak. I make some great, fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs using a combination of grilling and oven basting.

My favorite family cooking traditions

My dad cooked in the army and has long cooked for family gatherings. My mother and aunt prepared a family cookbook dedicated to my father with a foreword written by my cousin.

My cooking triumphs

I can do anything with pizza. I have alot of personal dishes I've developed over the years that I enjoy making. I'd like to expand my horizons and try some new dishes.

Washabinaros Chili

This probably isn't the most helpful of reviews since I don't remember the exact modifications I made to the recipe to replace ingredients I didn't have on hand. But I wanted to say that it was very good. The substitutions I made were very minor and didn't effect the overall qualities of the recipe. The only major modification was to tone down the spices a bit. I like things zesty, even with a very little bite, but not so much that I have to stop and sip milk in between mouthfuls.

Whipped Cream Cheese

I made this in my kitchenaid stand mixer with the wire whip attachment and whipped it on high, turning it off intermittently to scrape down the bowl. I did double the cream cheese but I think I added too much milk (I need to start measuring). After it was whipped, I used the flat beater to folder in some chopped scallions. My wife and I spread this on homemade, toasted bagels and it was fabulous. Thanks!

Amish White Bread

I made this recipe today. The only substitution I made was using extra virgin olive oil in place of the vegetable oil. I followed the advice of another reviewer and cut down each of my loaves a bit and made six dinner rolls along with the two loaves. I did let the bread rise a bit longer for the both the first and second rises. It made 2 fantastic loaves of bread with a most excellent crumb. The rolls came out even better if that's possible. I would up with six dinners with the texture of a baguette. I was so psyched. This will definitely be my new go to recipe for bread. I want to try this recipe with baguettes sometime. Highly recommended.
