Food & Wine Magazine Giveaway

 Did you guys catch last nights episode of Top Chef? For those of you that don't know I am a huge Top Chef fanatic. I never miss an episode. I have been watching for years. This season they are in Seattle and the competition is stiff.Last night they had 30 minutes to make a dish and they had no pots, pans, mixing bowls etc... all they could use was aluminum foil. Not only that, but they had to pick their ingredients without knowing what it was, because all the ingredients were wrapped in foil!  It was fun to watch them make bowls and pans out of the foil. Quite the challenge. The winner was Kristin with her yummy sponge cake. Very ambitious! A well deserved win. She also ended up winning the main challenge at the end where she won $10,000! Congratulations Chef Kristin!
top chef, season 10, seattle, kristen kish, bravo

  5. Made this maple sweetened cranberry sauce for thanksgiving & its a new family holiday tradition!
    3 oranges
    24 ounces fresh cranberries, rinsed and picked over
    1 cup golden raisins
    1 cup maple syrup
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

    Directions

    Zest & juice oranges to get 1/2 cup juice. Place a 4 quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add berries, raisins, syrup, orange juice & 1/2 cup water to the pan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly & cook for about 5 minutes, or until the berries begin to pop. Season with cinnamon & cloves. Add orange zest, saving 2 teaspoons for garnish. Stir, bring back to a rolling simmer & turn heat down to medium. Continue cooking for 3-5 minutes. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish the cranberry sauce with the reserved orange zest and enjoy!
