Fondue is a fun and informal way to gather friends and family together. Consider offering some fresh vegetables such as sliced peppers and halved mushrooms in addition to the chunks of French bread.
This simple preparation yields delicious results in a versatile side dish. If baby pattypan squash are not available, substitute four cups of thinly sliced zucchini or yellow squash.
Cooking the salmon at a low temperature ensures moist results. This is ideal for a dinner party--just serve with hot jasmine tea and offer ginger sorbet for dessert.
Cumin and fiery serrano chile infuse this simple soup as it cooks, and a dollop of sour cream provides a refreshing foil for the spicy flavors. For less heat, seed the chile first or use a milder pepper, such as jalape?
