A list of all the recipes Michael Shoup has tested.
Pigs in Pretzel Blankets
These are gonna ruin the childhood classic for you. Seriously ruin. Sturdy pretzel dough wrapped around wee sausages and baked until irresistible.
Korean Chicken Wings
Know that elusive balance of ridiculously crisp skin yet tender meat and a dipping sauce that’s sorta sweet but with some heat? Most wings fail miserably to achieve that. These nail it.
Pecan Pie Bread Pudding
When you’ve got leftover bread, sure, you could make bread crumbs. Or you could make this Southern melding of pie and pudding that’s obscenely indulgent. Tough decision, eh?
Roast Chicken with Moroccan Spices
This is definitely NOT the roast chicken of our childhood. And with all due respect, we couldn’t be happier about that.
Choriqueso
Choriqueso = chorizo (spicy Mexican sausage) + queso (Spanish for cheese) melted into a puddle in a skillet. Perfect for dipping.
Bacon Bourbon Butterscotch Popcorn
Bourbon-spiked, butterscotch-coated, bacon-gilded popcorn raises the bar to a whole new level of hopelessly irresistible.
Whiskey and Fig Gelato
This unexpected yet enticing melding of sweet and smoky makes for a sassy summer dessert you’ll be craving year round.
Kachumbari Salad
Salsa masquerading as salad, this recipe for kachumbari (say it with us, ka-chum-bar-i) is from Kenya, not Mexico. Surprise!
