Chef John's Shrimp Cocktail
Cooking shrimp cocktail is easier than it may seem. Before I knew much about food or dining out, I knew that if they brought shrimp cocktails to the table as an appetizer, we were eating at a "fancy" restaurant. I'm sure I enjoyed the shrimp, but what I really loved was dipping the crackers in the spicy, horseradish-spiked cocktail sauce.
Gluten-Free Quinoa Noodles
I made up this gluten-free quinoa noodles recipe when I was craving chicken and noodles. It's based on the Betty Crocker recipe. I use quinoa flour because of its increased nutritional content. Plus, as anyone following a gluten-free diet knows, we constantly get tired of the same old stuff, and quinoa has great flavor.
