Asian Dipping Sauce

I’ve been making an Asian Dipping Sauce at the club lately that goes very well with seared Ahi tuna. It’s sweet, tangy, and delicious of most types of fish, and shrimp.

Vegetarian Vegetable Stock

Most soups and sauces begin with a flavoring agent, base or stock. Stocks provide depth of flavor, and are essential when preparing memorable cuisine. Vegetarian vegetable stock is simple to prepare, and can be frozen in Ziploc bags for use at a later date.

Lobster Bisque

Lobster bisque is an extremely decadent, rich, flavorful soup. I recently made a large batch for a member’s brunch at the Allegheny Club. The secret to successful lobster bisque is to not rush the dish. Prepare this velvety soup when you have a few hours of time to dedicate to it.

Chicken Chili

I’m a big fan of chili, especially during the cold winter months. I don’t make traditional chili too often because I find ground meat too fatty, and kidney beans waxy. This Chicken Chili recipe is delicious, nutritious, and satisfying.
