I never knew how serious Friday Fish Fry was in Wisconsin until I moved here. It is legit serious. 🐟⁠ Every restaurant, regardless of type of restaurant, has a fish fry on Friday nights. Pizza place? Fish Fry. Supper Club? Fish Fry. Mexican joint? Fish fry. The Journal Sentinel has an article online showing “The 43 best Friday Fish Fry’s” in Milwaukee. THE FORTY THREE BEST. 😆⁠ ⁠ Of course you must make it with beer and @coorsbanquet is perfect for this recipe! ⁠ ⁠ ↔️ Swipe to see the steps...⁠ ⁠ Recipe here...⁠ ⁠ https://bit.ly/3rXgQlL⁠ ⁠ Tartar sauce recipe (you must try this if you love Frisch's Big Boy tartar sauce!

Do you like curried chicken salad? I had never had one that I liked (which is odd...I like all the things in it?? but the balance was just never quite right between the curry and the rest of the ingredients, to me. Did I ever mention that I'm picky? 🤣⁠ ⁠ So I put this one together. For me, the balance of curry, sweet and tangy turned out perfect, and it was a great dinner on a 90 degree day! Completely hit the spot. ⁠ Could it have been the Duke's Mayo? Possibly so. ⁠ @dukes_mayonnaise⁠ ⁠ Recipe here⁠ ⁠ https://bit.ly/3ypqiRr⁠ ⁠ And all recipes and instructions can be found on my Linkinbio page. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #dukes_mayonnaise #chickensalad #salad #chicken #lunch #dinner #freshfood #foodblogger #chickendinner #chickenrecipes #recipe #recipes⁠

They're really amazing!! (we had been frying the fish...this is so much better!

For years I've wanted to try making arancini but was super intimidated because well...food styling just isn't something I'm super great at (I mean I'm working on it!) So I did what I do and got the right tool for the job, and soon I was cranking them out and I think they turned out *prettY* good?⁠ ⁠ And making the risotto in the Instant Pot is like a miracle, seriously.

You know how much I really love food that comes together fast, but every once in a while, I have to take it low and slow. ⁠ This red sauce recipe was given to me by an authentic Italian grandmother, and it came from her grandmother. The beautiful fond from browning the beef really contributes to the flavor, and the beef cooks until it nearly falls apart in the red sauce.

One of my favorite Father's day gifts I've ever given (really...a gift for *me* 🤣) was the Blackstone Grill. As my husband often does his first reaction was "what the heck did you do now" that rapidly turns into "this thing is awesome", and it IS. ⁠ In my opinion it's the only way to make smash burgers 🍔, (I mean you need the space, right??) and give the perfect beautiful crust on the burgers.

Sourdough Cinnamon Raisin Bread⁠ ⁠ I guess I s

Sourdough Cinnamon Raisin Bread⁠ ⁠ I guess I should call this sourdough-ish because the heavy lifting of the rise is done by commercial yeast. However, adding sourdough starter (fed or discard) and doing an overnight fermentation definitely give you the sourdough flavor, enough to balance out the sweetness of the brown sugar and raisins. Plus a double pow of vanilla with Watkins liquid and powdered vanilla. ⁠ ⁠ This is really one of our favorite breads and tastes like a warm hug 🤗⁠ ⁠ Recipe here⁠ ⁠ https://bit.ly/3zMGzQI⁠ ⁠ And all recipes and instructions can be found on my linkinbio page!⁠ ⁠ #sourdough #bread #sourdoughbread #levain #artisanbread #baking #realbread #bakery #homemade #wildyeast #sourdoughstarter #sourdoughbaking #breadmaking #homebaker #breadbaking #homemadebread #fermentation #watkins.1868 @watkins.1868

Muffuletta. Quite honestly the best sandwich I've ever made. Homemade bread (They wanted like 20 dollars to ship it from NOLA. Heck to the no on that).⁠ ⁠ Homemade olive salad, and layers of Sopressata, Mortadella, Capocollo (gabba gool), Coppa and more olive salad.

An updated classic, this dip has 3 kinds of onions and all kinds of beefy flavor. You know how I know it's delicious?

Anatomy of a slider-⁠ In this case, Italian beef sliders. The beef is cooked in beer @millerlite in the Instant Pot @instantpotofficial⁠ ⁠ That makes cooking the beef super fast and super tender. Pile it all high with cheese, a super tangy sauce, and Cento hoagie spread (if you have not tried this, it's freaking amazing. I never want a sub without it again) @centofinefoods and of course you need to serve them "dipped" (or I guess you'd say drowned in this case 🤣)⁠ ⁠ Take the time you saved on the beef and make the rolls from scratch for next-level ridiculousness.

Happy #sundayfunday !! Is everybody ready for some #brunchin this morning? ⁠ ⁠ I present to you French toast. But this isn't just regular French toast. This one is turned up to 11, with homemade sourdough-ish cinnamon raisin bread (I say ish because commercial yeast does the heavy rising, the sourdough is just for flavor). Soaking the sturdy bread in the egg mixture makes the texture somewhat of a cross between French toast and bread pudding. ⁠ ⁠ Served with Dr. Bill's Can and Maple Syrup! @drbillssyrup⁠ ⁠ Recipe here⁠ ⁠ https://bit.ly/3i25RUU⁠ ⁠ And all recipes and instructions can be found on my linkinbio page!⁠ ⁠ #frenchtoast #sourdough #brunch #drbillssyrup ⁠ #realbread #sourdoughbread #baking #breakfast #breadbaking #breadmaking #recipe #recipes #foodblogger

Another delicious *and* filling dinner salad. Inspired by a salad I had at a restaurant which was so unique and delicious. ⁠ ⁠ The romaine is just ever so slightly grilled, and the dressing is a nice creamy and tangy horseradish flavored dressing.

I like having a salad *with* dinner, but it's pretty rare that I will have a salad *for* dinner. There just usually isn't enough there to make me feel like I've had a full meal. ⁠ That is definitely NOT the case for this Thai Chicken salad, the chicken and peanuts really give it some body. Also there's the fact that I can't stop eating it because it's so amazing. 😋😋⁠ ⁠ Prepping the chicken ahead of time really saves time on a weeknight when I'm trying to keep my crap all together!!⁠ ⁠ Recipe here⁠ ⁠ https://bit.ly/2UCzVgT⁠ ⁠ And all recipes and instructions can be found on my linkinbio page⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #healthy #food #fresh #yummy #delicious #dinner #recipe #eeeeeats #veggies #foodblogger
