Clementines are the small citrus in boxes or mesh bags that appear in markets during the winter months. This year's crop is tasty, juicy and plentiful (prices are low!). They're great for snacking, dessert or in fruit salads. Clementines also make a wonderful addition to almost any green salad, or in hearty salads with whole grains and beans. I've included five of Diana's recipes below to get you started. In Canada and perhaps elsewhere clementines may be called mandarins. Technically clementines are a cross between mandarins (Citrus reticulata) and Seville oranges (Citrus auratium). The recipes can be made with any of the tangerine-sized citrus or with oranges sections cut into bite-size pieces. To...

Is there any drink more fun and refreshing than an ice cold milkshake? I don't think so. Milkshakes are a part of American food culture and have spread all over the world. Here's my list of the best milkshake recipe you can find anywhere. Classic Vanilla Milkshake - Made with vanilla ice cream and vanilla extract.

Old Fashioned Chocolate Milkshake - Made with chocolate or vanilla ice cream (depends on how intense you want the chocolate flavor), milk and chocolate syrup. This is always the second most favorite milkshake flavor. It's so easy to make and delicious to...

Celiac disease is the reason that the gluten free diet exists.

There are two distinct camps on strawberry shortcake. The original strawberry shortcakes were made with a biscuit dough. The berries were sweetened and spread between layers of biscuit, then topped with plain or sweetened whipped cream. Another way to make the shortcake is to use a sponge cake as a base for the shortcake. The berries are sweetened and served in the same way as the biscuit version. I prefer the sponge cake version, or sometimes I make it with pound cake. When choosing berries for this recipe, look for ripe berries without soft spots or blemishes. Store them in a cool dry place, without washing. When ready to prepare them, wash them gently by dipping them into a large bowl of...

There are many products out there that promise to whiten your teeth, but they often cost a pretty penny. While asking my friends and family for advice on what worked for them, I came up with my own home teeth whitening recipe. I wanted to share the concoctions I have made right in my kitchen that have given me the best results. The first whitening recipe that I ever discovered was after I ate a handful of strawberries.

The sauce in this Moroccan Chicken Recipe are flavorful but not too spicy. That is why I love Moroccan cooking. This particular recipe uses boneless chicken breast and the sauce is a delicious blend of sweet, hot and savoury flavours that even a non-curry eater should enjoy. This breast chicken recipe uses most of the traditional Moroccan spices such as cumin, cinnamon and turmeric. Lemons are another typical ingredient in Moroccan cuisine. This recipe is quite simple but the exotic flavors and aromas from the spices make it seem far more sophisticated. The yogurt at the end is optional for those (like me) who prefer a less spicy option. To go with the Moroccan theme, I like to serve this with...

When cooking a beef roast it is important to know that seasoning added to the surface of the meat before roasting will only penetrate the meat a small fraction. Large beef roasts, like beef ribs and rounds usually have mostly fat covering or bone. The reason the seasoning of a beef roast has little effect is because the fat and bones are not commonly eaten. This is why it is important to know two alternative techniques when seasoning a beef roast right before roasting. 1. Marinate the meat or apply seasonings in advance, to give the time for flavors to penetrate. 2. Serve the beef roast with a flavorful sauce, gravy, or jus. The sauce serves as a seasoning and favoring for the meat. 3. Another way...
