STARTER: Skillet Fish Pie
|
|
|
This pie is one of those rare recipes that tastes like it came from the oven while being cooked entirely on the stovetop. It is an excellent choice for hot summer days, camping with a gas burner, vacation rentals, or any time you want a homemade meal without heating the entire kitchen. I also like that the batter is neutral enough to work with almost any savory filling, making it a recipe you'll come back to again and again.

NEW RECIPE
Lavender Syrup
Lavender syrup has long been made in Provence, France, where fields of fragrant lavender bloom every summer. This homemade version uses freshly harvested culinary lavender blossoms to create a delicate floral syrup that pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, lemonade, sparkling water, cocktails, and desserts. The flavor is subtle and elegant—never overpowering—when steeped for the proper amount of time.
