Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
5-minute rich and flavorful velouté sauce is a French “mother sauce” made from roux (butter cooked with flour) and chicken stock. It’s basically gravy without drippings, and it’s a great recipe to have up your sleeve for serving with things like roast chicken, roast turkey, or even pot roast!
I’ve been making chicken gravy without pan drippings for years.
This is for two reasons.
…This easy Chimichurri Sauce recipe is herby, garlicky, and tangy with a hint of spicy heat. It takes just 10 minutes to make and kicks up of the flavor of grilled meat, vegetables, and more!...
Creamy, sweet, tangy, and salty Yum Yum Sauce is a delicious condiment that instantly bumps up the flavor of whatever you put it on! It’s one of the most popular hibachi sauces at Japanese teppanyaki restaurants, and it’s commonly eaten on fried rice and grilled meat....

This Spaghetti Marinara Recipe is an easy meal that cooks in under an hour, but tastes like it simmered all day! Naturally sweet San Marzano tomatoes are cooked down with garlic and basil in extra-virgin olive oil for a delicious tomato sauce that’s absolutely perfect tossed with pasta.

This Easy Low Carb BBQ Sauce Recipe has a classic well-rounded flavor profile; it’s the perfect balance between sweet, tart, spicy, smoky, and umami flavors. After I started cutting back on carbs, I realized just how much hidden sugar is in so many of our foods. Like ketchup, for example. Yes, it’s sweet, but it’s not dessert so it really has no business being that sweet, lol! And yet you wouldn’t believe how much sugar it packs, and guess what? A lot of BBQ sauces on the market have even more sugar than ketchup....
Ancho Chili Peach Blender BBQ Sauce is sweet and tangy with a touch of spicy heat. I used to think that most people either fall into the creamy condiment camp (like mayo) or the sweet/tangy condiment camp (like ketchup, honey mustard, and BBQ sauce). That’s because until about five years ago when I discovered the bliss that is homemade mayo (not to mention how insanely easy it is to make), mayo just wasn’t my thing....
Make your favorite Japanese dishes at home with this versatile 2-Minute Homemade Teriyaki Sauce! Plus it’s paleo and you probably have everything to make it on hand right now. When Mike gets to choose our restaurant for date night, he inevitably goes with Lebanese or Pakistani. I was on a serious Indian food kick for a while when it was my turn to pick a place, but I had it so much even I got sick of it (which is unheard of for me), so now I’ve taken to exploring smaller, locally-owned restaurants of all kinds in our area (they are usually full of charm […]...
I got you some fruit – your favorite!, Mike said with a huge smile one day a while ago when he came home from work. I ran over eagerly and peered into the large brown paper bag he was holding, wondering if it was housing apples, grapes, figs, or maybe even dragon fruit....
I’m nothing approaching a homesteader (heck, I’m really not even a camper!), but I like a DIY cooking project as much as the next girl. This is why it seriously surprised me that it never even dawned on me to make homemade enchilada sauce until recently. Not long ago, enchiladas were requested for dinner and as my pantry was bereft of canned sauce, I knew I either had to head to the grocery store for just a single item (which I was not about to do…this is one of my pet peeves!) or get creative....
