The Good Vanilla

Nick is back with a quick check in to discuss where he's been, his excitement that Stanley Tucci has officially entered the world of the Barefoot Contessa, and his disdain of not being able to find a good bagel place in Pittsburgh. Enjoy!

This week its all things breakfast and Ina is showing Stephen recipes for the PERFECT Breakfast Party. On the menu is buttermilk cheddar biscuits, homemade strawberry jam, a juicy breakfast mocktail, and herbed scrambled eggs!

The holidays are here and Ina has the perfect holiday dinner for twenty-somethings and beyond! On the menu is Tagliarelle with truffle butter, a show-stopping red berry trifle, roasted carrots and parsnips, and boneless chicken breasts stuffed with goat cheese, basil and sundried tomatoes. Phoebe Lapine drops in to give the thumbs up or thumbs down for Ina's recipes being worthy of her blog. Will Ina make the cut? Tune in to find out!

Ina is hosting a pre-holiday party at her new barn and we're all invited!! On the menu is a mouth watering seafood gratin with lobster, halibut and shrimp bathing in a delicious saffron sauce. For dessert, a creamy pumpkin mousse, (there's no CLOYING pumpkin pie at THIS soiree!). Then it's outside to the new garden for mulled wine and s'mores filled with French chocolate bark. How FESTIVE is THAT?

This week is egg-stra special because Ina is easing our woes when it comes to making fancy egg dishes! On the menu are french omelets with Terry Harwood, a show-stopping spinach and cheddar soufflé, fool proof hollandaise sauce, and a round of "Ask Ina!" How delicious is THAT?

Its finally Thanksgiving and Bobby Flay is helping Ina do a dry run of make-ahead Thanksgiving dishes with the volume turned up! On the menu is an eleven layer potato gratin, a seasonal heartland chopped salad, orange honey glazed carrots, herb and apple bread pudding, ginger molasses cake, homemade cranberry sauce, and Bobby's fall sangria! Now THAT's a menu to be thankful for!

Its the week before Thanksgiving and Ina's got you covered with sides with the volume turned up! On the menu is a Tuscan turkey roulade, chipotle smashed potatoes, green beans with fennel, potatoes and parmesan, and pumpkin flan with maple caramel. Ta dum!

Between Nick's new dog, a Hawaiian vacation, and the news of Jeffrey sending steamy text messages, there is a LOT to catch up on! Nick fills us in on what he's been up to and his excitement for the The Good Vanilla now that the Holiday Season has begun!
