August 5, 2019September 7, 2023 Jeff the Chef

"Pop-Tarts," from Make It Like a Man! In-flight dining

Blackberry-Saskatoon Hand Pies: Pop-Tarts, Perfected

July 29, 2019July 12, 2023 Jeff the Chef

The sour-cream-and-butter dough for these homemade Blackberry-Saskatoon Hand Pies is somewhere in between pie crust and pastry. A touch of glaze makes them perfectly sweet. They’re sort of like Pop-Tarts, except we left out the thiamine mononitrate, the palm oil (with TBHQ for freshness!), the dextrose, the high fructose corn syrup … you get the picture.

Grapefruit-Lime White Wine Spritzer

July 1, 2019August 10, 2018 Jeff the Chef

Is the Grapefruit-Lime White Wine Spritzer the comfort food of cocktails? I think so. It’s gratifying and satisfying, and on a hot, humid day, you just want to curl up around an ice-cold glassful. Such a simple and easy recipe for such a fantastic drink!

"Vanilla Bean Buttermilk Lemon Curd Ice Cream," from Make It Like a Man!

Vanilla Bean Buttermilk Lemon Curd Ice Cream

June 24, 2019June 28, 2019 Jeff the Chef

Blue Cheese and Honey Tartine

Birthday Party Menu for a Dozen Adults

June 10, 2019September 30, 2024 Jeff the Chef

You know how, after a sitcom has been on a few seasons, you have one of those episodes that’s nothing other than a series of flashbacks to previous episodes and you feel like thank god you get this stuff free, because you feel like you totally got cheated, but at the same time, you’re like, oh, that episode!
