Mrs. Hayes’s Lasagna
Last night was hella fun! But the night started with a happy hour hosted at our condo with a small appetizer prepared by me, inspired by Gordon Ramsay. Earlier in the day I was at Taylor Shellfish on Capitol Hill and I bought diver scallops. I have watched Gordon Ramsay make Scallop tartare 10x but I never have been able to find diver scallops. I am so used to seeing scallops without a shell I just figured they sit at the bottom of the ocean like that 🙂 I have tried to make scallop tarter before with regular ‘dredged’ scallops but the flavor was just off. Without rambling too much here is this amazing happy hour appetizer recipe. Scallop Tartar Lemon Lime Chives Creme…

To compliment Mark’s baby back ribs, I decided to roast corn on the cob- a must have during the summer months! This is a super easy and tasty way to dress up an ear of corn…just try not to over grill/roast the ears :0) You need a few cloves of minced garlic, melted butter, chopped cilantro, freshly ground pepper, kosher salt and crumbled cotiga cheese. First, shuck your corn and prepare the grill to medium-low heat. Then melt your butter and add the minced garlic. Brush the corn with your melted garlic butter, season with pepper/salt and place the ears on a single layer of foil on top of the grill. You will spend the next 10-15 minutes, turning the corn when they lightly…

On Saturday Ash and I drove to Ballard for Bastille Day. On the way back downtown we stopped at a couple places to buy baby back ribs. Bill the Butcher (Magnolia) — Rip off! Period. A 2.2 lbs vacuum sealed rack of baby back ribs cost about $31 dollars. The people were nice…but was just completely let down. Their price for ribs was ridiculous. I used to like Bill the Butcher but whatever happened to being a real meat monger? Ken’s Market (Queen Anne) — After leaving Magnolia we headed toward the Trader Joe’s at the top of Queen Anne. When we got to the intersection of 6th Ave W/ W McGraw…I saw the Ken’s Market display board read “$4.99 Baby Rack Ribs,” so…

Spicy Bolognese Lasagna WARNING…this recipe is truly a two day process but is so worth the time, energy and love spent. Originally adopted from Smitten and modified to my liking, there is not a person on this earth who will not think about this dish at least three times the following week after having it. MMM…It is sinful, simple and delicious. DAY 1 – Make your bolognese sauce and store it overnight. DAY 2 – Make your béchamel & assemble your lasagna In the ingredient list below, you might be surprised not to see ricotta in the ingredients, why? Because we are going to substitute it with a rich and creamy béchamel. You will need: 1/2 cup unsalted butter 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 4…
