Angie Zoobkoff, Recipe Tester
A list of all the recipes Angie Zoobkoff has tested.
Angie Zoobkoff has always been happiest when she’s in the kitchen. Encouraged to cook at an early age by both of her parents, Angie spent many weekends as a child in the kitchen, dreaming up and preparing elaborate meals for her family. Years later, Angie spends her days puttering outside during the very short Canadian summers on her acreage outside Calgary, Alberta, where she built her dream garden and greenhouse. She also spends a lot of time happily recipe testing for Leite’s Culinaria, much to the delight of her husband and two children and anyone else who happens to stop by.
Arugula Salad with Pear and Blue Cheese
Peppery greens, creamy blue cheese, and crisp pear are jumbled together with a sweetly nutty vinaigrette that’s so delicious you may just catch folks licking the plate.
Beef Wellington
A favorite holiday dish, beef Wellington is beef fillet slathered with pate, covered in a dice of mushrooms, wrapped in puff pastry, and baked.
Fennel and Potato Soup
A spectacular riff on the classic French potato and leek soup known as Vichyssoise, this is astoundingly good. So much so you may just find yourself raising the bowl to your lips.
Chopped Vegetable Salad with Pomegranate
Scoop up mouthfuls of this colorful and herbacious salad, and revel in the fresh flavors of Middle Eastern food. Serve with lettuce leaves or pitas for spooning and dipping.
Jamie Oliver’s Garlic Pull-Apart Rolls
A fun side dish that also tastes exceptionally good. Rolls of cheese-filled garlic bread in a tear-and-share loaf, they make a terrific snack, too.
Roasted Tzimmes
This is not the sweet, gooey tzimmes of your childhood. Nope. So don’t be surprised when that old familiar flavor pales in comparison.
Dairy-Free Crispy Onion Strings
Crispy onion strings make a delish side dish, especially for the holidays. But even better is just eating them, out of hand, dipped in your favorite sauce.
Hot Turkey Sandwich
So crazily satisfying you may just find yourself making Thanksgiving dinner more than once a year.
Pine Nut Brittle
Crunchy, sweet, salty, buttery, and nutty. It comes together in 30 minutes, making it practical to toss together batch after batch for gifts if you get carried away with sampling.
