Hi everyone,

With the Easter holiday coming so early this year, we had to get out some Easter Recipes, especially Easter Ham Glaze and a few others coming in the next few days. Stay tuned to our latest recipes by going to the Latest Recipes menu in the Recipes section of our site. There you can view the 10 newest additions to the site (RSS Feed coming soon – updated).

I’d also like to discuss glazing hams before the holiday officially arrives, which is a popular tradition in many households who celebrate Easter. Usually the ham is cooked to whatever family tradition passed down to the chef du jour, and is one that has been used for a long time.

While I don’t propose breaking family tradition of course, it’d be very easy to change up your style instead and throw some pizazz into that family tradition. How do you ask? Simple, we’ll show you some tried and true methods for your old favorites and some new ideas for those of you bold enough to change it up!

Saint Patrick’s Day is fast approaching and to help celebrate the holiday, we’re revamped and updated some of Professional Recipes to help celebrate the holiday!

The Featured Recipe this month is a wonderful St Pattys Day Corned Beef! Traditional, delicious and easy to make, this one is sure to be a hit!

Be sure check out the Irish Potatoes recipe. This one’s a family recipe, but I’m sure it’s the same as a few others, or very similar. They’re very easy to make and just about everybody loves em!

Normally, I’ll go out and taste some local Irish fare and have a few rounds with some family and friends as there is a good bit of Irish in my family. Ham and Cabbage, Irish Potatoes, and of course this year I am making the Corned Beef and Cabbage! More on that to come.

So come check out all of our Gourmet Recipes and be sure to stop by for more site updates and more recipes!

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

I came across this great link about making girl scout cookies at home and I wanted to share it. The woman, Nicole, took the descriptions of the cookies and did her best to recreate them from this and her memory.

Homemade Girl Scout Cookies

This one is for making the Samoa’s cookies in particular but there are links to some of the other famous kinds (like Thin Mints!!!).

Enjoy!
