This version of chicken cacciatore couldn't be easier to make, but has a deep, rich flavor. I like to serve it with thick pasta or noodles to enjoy with the sauce and I also add some red chili flakes to give it a little kick, but … [Read more...]

A Great Grower Champagne

December 30, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

During the holidays - and especially for New Year’s - many of us will pop open Champagne. Recently, thanks to my wife and a recommendation from wine expert Francis Fecteau of Libation, Inc.

December 24, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Last week, I finally got my first ski day of the season. And I did it at my favorite local ski resort: Deer Valley.

Cheese Fondue

December 24, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

This is a pretty straightforward, classic Swiss-style cheese fondue. Enjoy it with cubed bread, blanched or raw veggies, fingerling potatoes, etc.  Ingredients: 1 medium clove garlic, peeled and cut in … [Read more...]
