You can now rate and comment on recipes you’ve cooked right from your recipe box and search results, without viewing the recipe summary.  To celebrate, we’re giving away a free cookbook with a rate & comment contest. Between now and February 1st, rate or comment on any of our “Recipes to Try January 2009” (listed below) and you’ll be entered into a random drawing* to win a free copy of the cookbook “Things Cooks Love” by Marie Simmons.  We’ll announce the winner in next month’s newsletter. 

Recipes Try January 2009

Gourmet - picked by Carolyn Jung

Butternut Squash and Radicchio Pappardelle, because I bet the sweet, nutty flavor of the squash nicely balances the bitterness of the radicchio.

Individual Grape and Vin Santo Cakes, because they are just too cute and precious looking. Plus, who can resist sweet wine baked into a sweet treat?

Bon Appetit - picked by Foodie Pam

Fettucine Carbonara with Pancetta and Brocoli Rabe:  From the moment I saw the cover I just knew this recipe was gonna be on my list of recipes try.  Pasta, pancetta, eggs - How can you go wrong?

Beet Salad with Cornbread Croutons and Country Ham:  While I admit this recipe has a rather long list of ingredients for a salad the traditional combination of citrus vinaigrette and beets with the southern twist of cornbread and country ham just has my curiosity peaked…

Food & Wine - picked by Foodie Heather

Angel Hair Pasta with Crab & Country Ham: I can't wait to splurge on a little fresh crab meat and give this recipe a go. The combination of sweet and salty country ham should work really well with the richness of the crab.

Welsh Rabbit: For the anglophile in me I have to give this British staple a try, such great flavors. Extra sharp cheddar cheese spiked with spicy Worcestershire sauce and the sharp flavor of Guinness Stout. I can almost visualize myself sitting in a London pub right now.

Saveur - picked by Carolyn Jung

Chicken Breasts Stuffed with Raclette, Herbs, and Proscuitto, because it's hard to resist anything with prosciutto and melty cheese.

Worcestershire Sauce, because it's supposedly bolder and bigger tasting than the premade bottled stuff we buy in the grocery store.

*winner must provide a mailing address in the continental united states to receive cookbook.
