Seasoned Cooking: 12 February 2016 Announcements

February is a month filled with a lot of sweets. If you are looking for something a little less saccharin and a bit more grownup, try enjoying some delightful black forest mini-cakes. Dark chocolate gets infused with cherries and port and then topped with a great whipped cream-buttercream combination.

As a culinary artist, you can minimize cooking catastrophes by doing a little less improv and following a few more tried and true cooking methods. Your creativity can still flow from you to your cuisine, but there will just be less mess when using these tips, tools, and hacks in the kitchen.

Skip those fussy tater skin appetizers for the big game and opt for a simple casserole that takes less time to assemble and packs a more impressive punch. It's time to step up your foodie game in time for the Super Bowl.

If you are looking for an elegant dinner idea for Valentine's Day but want to avoid the expected dishes, why not try surf and turf … in a bowl surrounded by crisp-tender vegetables, flavorful noodles, crunchy fried garlic, and a touch of heat? Grab your chopsticks, this is one amazing dish!

Do you like cherry cordials? Are you also a fan of cupcakes? Why not bring them both together for the ultimate dessert? And these special cupcakes also pack a little bit of a brandy punch! You'll be making sure you save room for two.
