Cranberry-Orange Shortbread Cookies with Apricots
I was searching to make the perfect citrus-y cranberry shortbread cookie, but it always felt like something was missing. So on a final attempt, when I didn't have enough dried cranberries to make a full recipe, I threw in some dried apricots and bam! That was it! They add the perfect backdrop flavor to these shortbread cookies!
The Ultimate Berry Crumble
This berry crumble recipe may berry well be my favorite summer dessert, with the perfect balance of sweet to tart, tender to crisp, and fruit to crumble. I don't tack the word ultimate onto just any recipe. Some ice cream on the side is highly recommended.
Branzino Mediterranean
Branzino, also known as European sea bass, is a delicious white fish with a mild flavor. I like to cook them whole, stuffed with lemon wedges, fresh oregano, and rosemary before roasting them for an easy dinner full of Greek flavor.
