Bread pudding…isn’t that dessert? Isn’t it only for things like cinnamon, raisins, or chocolate? No way. If you’ve tried sweet bread pudding and didn’t like it, don’t let that have any bearing on whether or not you will like this dish, because honestly, I didn’t care much for sweet bread pudding. But take that bread [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/16/leek-bread-pudding/feed/ 12 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/14/hot-pepper-jelly-yall/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/14/hot-pepper-jelly-yall/#comments Mon, 14 May 2012 14:35:11 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=6433
I can’t believe I just said y’all. But being Midwest-born, California-raised, New York-schooled…I guess it’s time I let a little bit of the South in me too. Everyone has their preconceptions about the South, but whether you love the place or hate it, there is certainly some awesome Southern food to be had. Some of [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/14/hot-pepper-jelly-yall/feed/ 14 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/11/california-cobb-salad-oxo-salad-spinner-giveaway/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/11/california-cobb-salad-oxo-salad-spinner-giveaway/#comments Fri, 11 May 2012 20:43:12 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=6435
What’s the secret to a good salad? …creamy dressing? …a handful of your favorite nuts? …BACON???? Well, I do think all of those things can only make a salad better, but none of them can save a salad that’s wet and soggy. What I’m saying is that the secret to a good salad is super [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/11/california-cobb-salad-oxo-salad-spinner-giveaway/feed/ 58 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/09/5-secrets-to-crisp-flavorful-golden-brown-waffles/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/09/5-secrets-to-crisp-flavorful-golden-brown-waffles/#comments Wed, 09 May 2012 14:32:54 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=6406
Did you ever eat those frozen pre-packaged waffles growing up? I did.  And I almost can’t believe I did. They’re quite a far cry from the crisp, thick, flavorful waffles I now make every Saturday for brunch. Even though my waffle standards started out with the soggy, spongy frozen variety, I’ve gotten very demanding about [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/09/5-secrets-to-crisp-flavorful-golden-brown-waffles/feed/ 11 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/07/raspberry-lemon-frozen-yogurt/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/07/raspberry-lemon-frozen-yogurt/#comments Mon, 07 May 2012 14:41:56 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=6116
When you hear ‘frozen yogurt,’ what comes to mind? Do you think of those self-serve yogurt places where you pull the handles to fill up as much as you want in your cup? Yeah, that stuff isn’t bad, but try this recipe, and you may just like this Raspberry Lemon Frozen Yogurt more than ice [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/07/raspberry-lemon-frozen-yogurt/feed/ 12 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/04/classic-roast-chicken-on-a-bed-of-vegetables/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/04/classic-roast-chicken-on-a-bed-of-vegetables/#comments Fri, 04 May 2012 13:57:42 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=5320
Roasted chicken…exciting stuff, huh??? …not so much? Yeah, that’s how I felt for a long time. Who can blame us, roast chicken has become such a common, “normal” dish, and it can be hard to appreciate something so ubiquitous. It’s time to rekindle the love for roasted chicken, because when done right, it results in [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/04/classic-roast-chicken-on-a-bed-of-vegetables/feed/ 13 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/02/white-wine-mussels-with-piquillo-rouille-slathered-bread/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/02/white-wine-mussels-with-piquillo-rouille-slathered-bread/#comments Wed, 02 May 2012 13:57:24 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=6161
For the longest time I only thought of mussels as restaurant food. In my head it was: Chicken, beef, pork…cook those at home. Lobster, mussels, duck, etc….order those at a restaurant. It seems silly that I once thought of mussels as some scary preparation because they are quite possibly one of the easiest dishes you [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/05/02/white-wine-mussels-with-piquillo-rouille-slathered-bread/feed/ 28 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/30/toasted-marshmallow-malt-milkshake/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/30/toasted-marshmallow-malt-milkshake/#comments Mon, 30 Apr 2012 13:54:00 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=5993
Every time I fly up to Manhattan, it goes something like this: Deboard Plane Pick up luggage from baggage claim Go get Shake Shack milkshake Every. Single. Time. Seriously, you can find me there within an hour of landing, sitting in a booth with my luggage lined up next to me, with my eyes closed, [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/30/toasted-marshmallow-malt-milkshake/feed/ 18 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/27/introducing-the-new-fifteen-spatulas-caramelized-onion-and-gruyere-foccacia/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/27/introducing-the-new-fifteen-spatulas-caramelized-onion-and-gruyere-foccacia/#comments Fri, 27 Apr 2012 12:41:40 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=6240
I am so pleased to introduce the new Fifteen Spatulas to all of you! Probably the biggest take-away I learned at the Food Blog Forum in Orlando is that a professional website is insanely important. In other words, I knew Fifteen Spatulas needed primping. It needed a professional logo, professional design, and an improved user [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/27/introducing-the-new-fifteen-spatulas-caramelized-onion-and-gruyere-foccacia/feed/ 36 http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/25/butterscotch-glazed-pecan-sticky-buns/ http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/25/butterscotch-glazed-pecan-sticky-buns/#comments Wed, 25 Apr 2012 13:21:26 +0000 Joanne Ozug http://fifteenspatulas.com/?p=6238
Have you ever been so stunned by something that it made you forget where you were? ….what you were doing? …who you were with? Let me put this into context for you. My husband has an AmEx card and for some (wonderful) reason they send us free Food & Wine Annual Cookbooks. I recently got [...]]]> http://fifteenspatulas.com/2012/04/25/butterscotch-glazed-pecan-sticky-buns/feed/ 26
