Dominick Evans’ Top Five Chefs who can Cook for Me from Food Network

Tuesday, August 14th, 2007

Chef EmerilThis is a guest post by Dominick Evans.

I decided to write two posts on Ashtyn’s Food Network Blog. This one is based on who can cook as opposed to who is hot. I’m sure you will find this list a bit different because I am actually including all chefs on the Network, not just the women! Essentially, these are the people I would let cook for me based on their skill and what they like to make.

So, without further ado, here is my top five chefs list. Let me know if you agree or disagree by making your own list in the comment section of this blog post.

5. Emeril

I think Emeril is an amazing chef. I would have placed him higher except for one little thing. Emeril likes to cook exotic food, a lot of which is fish. I am not overly fond of fish or fois gras or anything I can barely pronounce. That is the only downside to Emeril’s cooking. However, when he’s making steak, potatoes, and that famous Emeril cheesecake, he’s welcome to send me some any time.

Dominick Evans’ Top Five Hottest Women on Food Network

Tuesday, August 14th, 2007

The This is a guest post by Dominick Evans.

I brought up the idea of guest posting on Ashtyn’s Food Network Blog after reading her article on the Top Ten “Hottest” women on Food Network. Whoever chose that list was obviously smoking something because their choices were absolutely wrong. Do the vast majority of warm-blooded males agree with them or will they agree with my choices? Feel free to leave a comment letting me know whether you agree or disagree.

I chose the top five rather than the top ten because I cannot imagine naming ten hosts that I actually find hot on Food Network! I mean, I could name multiple chefs and hosts (both male and female) whose food I would eat, but when it comes to looks, I find that the amount of hot women on the Network seems to be lacking. Granted, you don’t have to be hot to cook, but it certainly does make a good show even more enjoyable.

That being said, lets get to the list.

Bobby Deen’s Caramel Cake

Sunday, August 5th, 2007

Bobby Deen's Caramel CakeWhen it comes to cooking, Bobby Deen, son of Food TV’s most popular Southern Chef Paula Deen, is a man after my own heart. His recipes look and sound delicious. I am not the only one who agrees. Bobby has two of the top recipes on the Food Network Website currently. This is one of those recipes.

I first saw Bobby whip this dessert up on an episode of Paula’s Home Cooking, which was a birthday style episode. I haven’t had a chance to make it yet, but I just had to share it so you all could try it. It has four stars on the Food TV rating system. So, if you happen to try this recipe before I get the chance to do so, leave a comment and let me know how good it actually is!

Paula Deen’s Creamy Cheddar Soup

Monday, July 30th, 2007

I made this last night for Dominick and myself to try. Dom loves soup, but isn’t overly fond of uncooked onions or cheddar. I, on the other hand, am addicted to cheese with cheddar one of my favorite kinds. Oddly enough, I have never had cheddar soup and Dominick is a lover of cheesy Walkabout Soup from Outback. Not knowing how similar this soup would be to the Walkabout Soup, but knowing he wanted some kind of soup for supper, I decided to give this a try.

All I can say is Wow! Dom went crazy for the soup. He tried a small bowl and wanted seconds. I was told “This is so good, Ash! It tastes like Walkabout Soup, only better!”

Dessert of the Day: Paula’s Strawberry Shortcake

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

I may deviate from this from time to time and add more than one, but as the title states I will work to give you at least one scrumptious looking dessert a day. I choose Paula’s Strawberry Shortcake because it looked absolutely delicious. When most people think strawberry shortcake they think a biscuit or pound cake, some ice cream and strawberries. This is taken to a deliciously whole new level and is definitely something I will be trying in the near future.

Paula’s Strawberry Shortcake

3 tablespoons strawberry gelatin (recommended: Jell-O)
