Dear Ina,
Dear Ina, You know I adore you. Why else would I take on this insane project and preach the Contessa gospel to everyone I know? Sure, there have been a few bumpy stretches along the path, but I’ve reconciled those … Continue reading →
East Hamptons Clam Chowder
I made a half-batch of this (Barefoot Contessa Family Style), which was plenty for dinner plus leftovers. It was delicious. I love this style of clam chowder, but this recipe was especially good with plenty of potatoes and carrots.
Brisket with Carrots and Onions
Continuing with our Jewish theme from yesterday, I made this brisket (Barefoot Contessa Parties!). I don’t know why or how beef brisket became associated with Jewish holidays, but I can see why the tradition continued. Based on my previous disappointments … Continue reading →

Roasted Parsnips & Carrots

Roasted Carrots

Sweet and Crunchy
Orange Honey Glazed Carrots (Barefoot Contessa at Home, p. 133) taste like the cooked carrots you know, but better. They are still slightly crunchy, and the orange and honey bring out the natural sweetness in the carrots. This is probably … Continue reading →
