Warning! Long, rambling post right here! But if you work your way through to the end, there will be recipes for Lemon Drop Martinis, Caesar Salad Dressing, Lobster Macaroni & Cheese, and Churros Poppers!
I promise that all of these recipes will eventually be posted with the usual step-by-step photos! However, I have been receiving a lot of emails from viewers of the cooking show who would like to have the recipes that I prepared on the last show. Please be warned that I'm still developing some of these recipes, and my notes will reflect some tweaks that I'm planning for the next time I prepare them!
We filmed another cooking show a couple of weeks ago.
The best way I can describe the theme would be "Attempting to prepare or develop recipes that I've never made before."
We happened upon this theme in a roundabout way. I went out to dinner with my friend, Trish. She ordered the house donuts for dessert, and our conversation went something like this:
Trish: Can you cook donuts?
Me: I never have, but I guess I could. I don't deep-fry anything...it's one thing to eat them when you go somewhere and they're already prepared, but to pour all that oil into a deep-fryer...yikes. I may as well just get a syringe and inject it directly into my thighs.
Trish: Do you have a deep fryer?
Me: Yes, I've never used it, it's sitting in my basement, unopened.
Trish: You should do a deep-frying cooking show!
Me: Only if you'll cook with me!
During the past year, I've asked her a couple of times if she would cook with me on the show, and she always said no. I'm guessing that on this particular night, her defenses were lowered by the lemon-drop martinis that we had with dinner. Lower defenses + joy at the thought of more deep-fried donuts in her future = YES! If only I had figured out sooner that plying her with donuts was the key to getting her on camera.
