These sous vide chocolate pots de creme may be the best thing I've ever made. Subtly flavored with espresso and bourbon, the flakey Maldon salt complements these deeply chocolate creamy pots of goodness. With only 15 minutes of active prep time, they are a great make-ahead choice for a dinner party.

Grilled octopus is surprisingly simple to make. The key is tenderizing the cephalopod before you grill it. This recipe provides two methods: sous vide and braising.

Whole roasted cauliflower is dramatic and delicious. This recipe incorporates a secret technique that keeps the outside from burning. I also offer two ways to slow cook the cauliflower -- oven roasting and sous vide. You decide which you like best!

The Paper Airplane cocktail is a bitter, sweet and sour riff on a classic whiskey sour. Created by world renowned bartender Sam Ross, this cocktail is a wonderful before-dinner drink that will prep your appetite and your palette for the coming meal.

Why do I love blood orange margaritas? Blood oranges are gorgeous. I love their red, orange and pink color. Blood oranges are tarter than regular orange juice, so they work to keep the margarita not too sweet, but still refreshing. Make these vibrant cocktails between December and May when blood oranges are in season.
XOXO PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED SCALLOPS

Pan seared scallops are quick and easy to make. We take them up a notch by wrapping them in prosciutto and serving them on a bed of corn and roasted pepper risotto. We place red pepper X's between each round mollusk so the serving plate reads " O X O X O," or Hug, Kiss, Hug, Kiss, Hug. What could be more appropriate on Valentine's Day?
