Saffron Shrimp and Grits Recipe

January 23, 2017 by The Foodie Whisperer Leave a Comment

Whenever I think of  a great breakfast spread, grits is always in the picture, even though it’s been decades since my childhood of eating them almost every morning.  It wasn’t until many years beyond my childhood that I first had shrimp and grits, though, and now, they top my list as one of the great…

*Recipe* – Shishito Peppers With a Twist

August 16, 2016 by The Foodie Whisperer Leave a Comment

Shishito Peppers

I don’t know if shishito peppers are available everywhere, but they’ve become more and more common in SoCal, grown fresh locally and present in most grocery produce sections and farmer’s markets.  They’re a small, thin-skinned, generally mild pepper, perfect for roasting and eating as an appetizer or accompaniment to any flavor forward dish, particularly grilled…

*Recipe* – Elote Corn on the Cob

August 2, 2016 by The Foodie Whisperer Leave a Comment

Elote Corn on the Cob

If you’re like me, there’s probably no food that screams summer more than sweet, fresh-picked, grilled corn on the cob.  I can eat it all summer long with a little butter, salt and pepper.  But, in Mexico, they have a little thing called Elote Corn on the Cob.  Actually, sometimes, they cut the corn off…

**Recipe** Pickled Onions

July 12, 2016 by The Foodie Whisperer Leave a Comment

Pickled Onions

Pickled onions are great for snacking on, garnishing a plate or adding a little bit of a vinegary component to any dish.  I like to keep a batch in the refrigerator so that I have them on hand whenever they’re needed – which is a lot.  This is an easy, quick recipe that can be…

*Recipe* – Cajun Jambalaya

June 27, 2016 by The Foodie Whisperer 1 Comment

Cajun Jambalaya Recipe

Cajun Jambalaya was one of my favorite dishes growing up.  It follows the common pattern for Cajun style cooking, using the “trinity” of onions, bell pepper and celery for the flavor base.  The great thing about Cajun style cooking is that most of the ingredients are probably sitting around in your refrigerator or pantry already….

*Recipe* Creamy, Cheesy Shrimp and Grits

Creamy, Cheesy Shrimp and Grits recipe

In the deep South, grits are considered one of those ubiquitous dishes that can be served as plain or as dressed up as you like.  For me personally, I can eat them breakfast, lunch or dinner with a healthy dose of butter, salt and pepper.  And, the creamier they are, the better I like them….

*Recipe* Risotto Milanese – Rich and Golden!

April 28, 2016 by The Foodie Whisperer Leave a Comment

Risotto Milanese

I was trying out a new oven roasted, “smoked” beef rib recipe and wanted something other than the same ol’ macaroni and cheese to accompany the dish.  I realized I hadn’t made a Risotto Milanese in awhile and it felt like a great fit.  To top it off, I threw a little bone marrow in,…

*Recipe* New Orleans Style Red Beans and Rice

April 14, 2016 by The Foodie Whisperer Leave a Comment

New Orleans Style Red Beans and Rice

New Orleans style red beans and rice is one of the first meals that Mom taught me how to make as a kid.  It’s on my Death Row “Last Meal” list – it’s a long list.  Suffice it to say, you’ll never see me pass up a good bowl of red beans and rice.  They’re a…
