Growing up, I hated liver in all forms. It wasn’t until I made in into my 30’s that I FINALLY got the courage to try liver and found that it was not as bad as I remember. My Chicken Liver Nuggets with Southwest Ranch, those are another story though – I can eat the entire…

My Venison Stir-Fry with Wild Ramps is the perfect way to transform simple ingredients into a delicious Chinese take-out style meal at home!  If you don’t have a freezer full of venison (like us) or freshly foraged wild ramps – Don’t worry!

I can’t even fathom that I now have 2 amazing recipes for Salmon Meatballs here on HSITK! My latest recipe for Salmon Meatballs with Garlic Lemon Cream Sauce only happened because I had ground wild caught salmon but not capers – so I couldn’t make my wildly popular Salmon Meatballs with Caper Dill Tarter Sauce. I love it…

When I first met my husband and learned that his family shared the same tradition as mine,…
It feels really strange to be talking so much (recently) about low-carb… I feel like it’s a complete blast from the past, I started eating low carb back in 1999 when I was a senior in college and while I’ve never eaten a “high carb” diet, it’s only been recently that I’ve become more dedicated…
Every June we spend a long weekend at the Lowe’s Wharf Marina in Sherwood, Maryland, eating fresh Maryland blue crabs and fishing for striper bass (rockfish). While there I learned that the key to making an authentic Maryland crab cake is to keep the ingredients simple and avoid overusing binding fillers such as bread and…

Pairing Spicy Peel and Eat Shrimp with a smoky, tangy Chipotle Remoulade is an awesome alternative to plain-jane shrimp cocktail!
