Pasta is getting a lot of people through this crazy quarantine. My Spicy Surf and Turf Pasta is no exception. If I had to sum it up in one word, I wouldn’t be able to. It’s just too damn good! Delightful, filling, flavorful, and perfect. It’s laced with juicy bits of claw crabmeat that cling…

How to Make Fool-Proof Fresh Pasta
There is nothing like the clean taste of fresh pasta. So many of us are used to that gummy stuff in a box, that we’ve been trained to believe is stellar — but it isn’t. Not by a long shot. Sure, it’s doable in a pinch, I won’t pretend I don’t use it from time…
Holiday Mac-n-Cheese w/ Roasted Garlic, Caramelized Shallots, and Prosciutto
So, I’m a firm believer that macaroni and cheese should never be diet food. The very thought of a low-cal/fat mac&cheese just pisses me off. First of all, this isn’t something you should be eating every day. This is holiday, or special occasion food. I’m sure there are plenty of you out there who enjoy eating low-fat version, and more power to you — but I’m not interested in it at all. Considering I only eat this kinda stuff MAYBE 3x a year at max, it’s totally worth it to me. With that said, this is a very decadent and “made with love” version of mac&cheese the CarnalDish way — can you say version 3? You get to caramelize your own shallots, roast your own garlic, and make your own breadcrumbs as well as make a deliciously cheesy mornay sauce. There are a lot of steps here, but they’re easy steps. Lots and lots of photos to help you nail this recipe, and believe me — when you nail it, you’re going to love it.
