FNCCC Week 9 - Cat Cora




This week's featured chef is Cat Cora, who has been on numerous FN shows. If you looked at her recipes at FN you realize her Greek heritage runs deep in her cooking. I wish I had time to make some of those Greek dishes but ran short on time. I have her Avgolemono: Chicken Soup with Egg-Lemon Sauce on my must-try list. Hopefully one of you chose that one so I know if it should stay there :)

I just happened to buy broccoli slaw last week so needed a recipe to use it. I don't like mayonnaise based slaw so this was great for me. Very tasty. Very easy. I would make it again.

Ingredients
Dressing:
1/3 cup Dijon mustard

3 tablespoons hot sauce (I only had wing sauce so used that)
1 teaspoon celery seeds
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 packages broccoli slaw
Directions
In a large bowl, whisk together the mustard and the sugar. Slowly add in the remaining ingredients for the dressing, continuing to whisk. Add in the broccoli slaw and mix thoroughly.

  1. I almost made this, but it is very similar to a recipe we make so I figured I better choose something else. Looks yummy!

  5. Oooh, I think I'd like this recipe better than the Aaron McCargo recipe I did in the first challenge.

    I bookmarked that soup recipe too but eggplants went on sale and I figured that meant I better make moussaka!

  6. Your dad made Eliopitta: Olive Bread. It was very good fresh. We will see how it is tomorrow. I think a great substitute for the thyme wold be rosemary. Hope to try it that way soon.

    We made about 70 tamales on Sunday. Used masa harina in the dough and wrapped the chick and beef tamales in corn husks. Even though the dough was a bit too thick they are quite good. It was a fun experience and hope to make them again.

    Love,
    Mom

  8. Hi everyone,

    Cat Cora's recipes seemed intimidating to me so I went with her simplest one: pizza dough. :) Check out what I cooked up on my blog, Sabbath Supper! Thanks!
