This technique keeps the meatloaf moist, while fortifying the sauce with its flavorful drippings. Regardless, this technique will work with just about any meatloaf recipe out there.
Ingredients
- 0.25 cups butter
- 2 cups shiitake mushrooms , sliced
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary , chopped

Caramel Rolls
Caramel rolls are my absolute favorite thing on earth. They're perfect for all holiday mornings!
Firecracker Shrimp Roll with Crab Aioli
Inspired by a shrimp po' boy with crab mayo seen on "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives," I decided to create an extra spicy recipe—firecracker shrimp roll with crab aioli—and give it a July Fourth-friendly name. The result is an explosively flavored combination of hot, crunchy shrimp and cold crabby mayo—it was one of the best things I've had in a long time, and that's after eating it barely warm. For best results, enjoy this just as soon as it's safe to eat, in all its crunchy glory.
Flan Mexicano (Mexican Flan)
This Mexican flan recipe was given to me by my mother-in-law, who is from Durango, Mexico. I had to beg her for years to give me this custard recipe — she finally gave it to me one Christmas. I like to add orange zest, but the original dessert recipe calls for just pure vanilla.
