Zuppa di pesce is an Italian fish stew packed with clams, mussels, and other seafood. This recipe includes pasta and spices things up with red chilli flakes. It's always a favorite on Christmas Eve. Best served with a nice red wine and Frank Sinatra playing in the background!

Delicious mandelbread/biscotti that come out crispy and sweet every time. Great for Passover, but do not taste like a Passover recipe.
Prime Rib Roast on Charcoal Grill
This is a very good recipe for grilling beef rib roast. I have used this for both bone-in and boneless roasts with great results on each. Make sure to remove the roast from the fridge about 1 to 2 hours before cooking.
