Amy Giezentanner, Recipe Tester
A list of all the recipes Amy Giezentanner has tested.
Thai Basil Pork
A little spicy, salty, and sweet and altogether satisfying. A weeknight salvation when you need dinner pronto but you want something that’s not predictable or boring.
Ruby Sangria
The official Spanish summer sipper. And, for those who don’t care for sodden, wimpy, mushy fruit in their cocktail, we include a nifty little party trick.
Chicken Wings with Garlic and Paprika ~ Pollo al Ajillo
These Spanish-inflected, heart-achingly outstanding chicken wings are our latest lazy weeknight crush.
Sole à la Meunière
Classic bistro cooking at its best. Rustic simplicity that’s still so very elegant, sole à la meunière is complex only in taste. French cuisine at home.
Macaroni Gratin
This luxe mac and cheese comes in diminutive dishes at hoity-toity Balthazar, though it creates no less comfort scooped straight from a plain old baking dish sitting in the center of the table.
Sweet Potato and Cranberry Strudel
This strudel, filled with sweet potato, raisins, and cranberry, is a great lunch or side. Store-bought Phyllo makes the strudel a cinch to make.
Baja-Style Tempura Fish Tacos
Relax with these crunchy-tender fish tacos filled with a kicky cabbage slaw and sweet-tart mango-banana salsa. Think flip-flops and a beer—all year long.
Japanese-Style Cucumber Salad
Simple. Surprising. Spunky. Just what we look for in a summer salad. Just what we found in this jumble of cucumbers, vinegar, and ginger.
Spicy Tomato Blue Cheese Soup
This spicy tomato soup gets its heat from Thai Sriracha sauce and depth from blue cheese. San Marzano tomatoes are used, so the soup can be made anytime.
Glazed Doughnuts
Mmmmm…doughnuts. Ethereally fluffy, wonderfully drippy, homemade glazed doughnuts. What are you waiting for? Go make some.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Fondue
This peanut butter fondue is oozing with semisweet chocolate and creamy peanut butter. A unique fondue, it’s a great recipe for peanut butter fiends.
