Coffee Gelato
This Italian-style coffee gelato does not contain eggs and will melt quickly when removed from the cold. You can add more ground coffee if you prefer a stronger taste. It is recommended to eat when ready, but you can store it for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the freezer.
Simple Whole Roasted Chicken
A whole chicken is seasoned with a sweet and savory dry spice rub made with allspice, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon. This combination of unique ingredients makes this chicken dish delicious! It does need to marinate in the fridge for 24 hours, but it roasts beautifully and surprisingly fast once in the oven.
Ba'corn Cheese Corn
This bacon-studded "cheese corn" is a popular bar snack in Korea, made of pure bacon-y, creamy, cheesy, corny decadence. The original recipe combines mayonnaise and sweetened condensed milk, but we're going with heavy cream here for a lighter approach. This may be the first time in my career that I've "lightened up" a recipe by adding a cup of heavy cream. Garnished with green onions, this would be amazing with a cold beer!
