Make-Ahead Appetizers

In this course, we divide appetizers into three categories to help you space out the planning and execution of your party. This translates to a full array of appetizers for guests to choose from, all executed perfectly and at the right time and temperature. By planning (and cooking) ahead, you'll be able to enjoy the food—and your guests too! But no matter how well you plan, emergencies or spills can happen. We'll share a few of the pantry essentials we like to keep on hand for last-minute events or appetizer calamities. And finally, we'll walk you through recipes for Slow-Cooker Glazed Cocktail Meatballs, Devils on Horseback, Southern Cheese Straws, Spinach Squares, and Broccoli Dip in a Bread Bowl.

Shrimp 101

Some think shrimp is the perfect food for a busy weeknight dinner. It cooks up lightning fast, is delicious, full of protein and low on fat and calories. But there is much to know about this crustacean before you tackle any shrimp dish. Learn how to buy and store shrimp, and what the different sizes really mean. Find out why we prefer frozen shrimp, and how to properly and safely thaw them. We will show you how to cook shrimp in a pan, cook them on a grill, and in a stir-fry too, and when to peel the shrimp or leave the shells on. See how to prep shrimp for cooking, and how to poach them in our comprehensive core technique videos. Take this information into the kitchen to prepare four shrimp recipes, and find out what common mistakes to avoid to ensure success every time.

Ultimate Apple-Cranberry Pie

This beautiful pie replaces some of the apple filling with a layer of cooked, sweetened cranberries. This recipe uses the pie dough from the Foolproof Pie Dough recipe. If you haven’t already done so, you’ll need to make the pie dough. To keep the cranberries from overwhelming the apples, we actually create two fillings and layer them into the pie shell one on top of the other for a stunning final presentation. As with our Deep-Dish Apple Pie, we found it best to precook the apples. Since we needed to cook the cranberry filling as well, we decide to simplify the apple filling a bit. We found we could handle the smaller quantity of apples used in this recipe in the microwave. And to skip the tedious draining step, we added a bit of cornstarch. Finally, we found that all sweet apples were a good foil to the tart cranberry layer. To simplify work on this project recipe, you can prepare the two fillings in advance and keep them in separate containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Likewise, the dough can be made in advance, so that all you need to do on serving day is roll out the dough, assemble the pie, and bake.

Easy Baked Manicotti

Manicotti are tubes of pasta stuffed with Italian cheeses and baked in a simple tomato sauce, similar to a meatless lasagna. Those who have made manicotti before and have been scarred by the experience may want to run in the opposite direction from this recipe. But fear not: thanks to no-boil lasagna noodles, we have a dramatically streamlined manicotti recipe that does away with precooking the pasta and the fussy task of stuffing each pasta tube with filling. Learning how to make stuffed manicotti with our recipe requires a fraction of the work of a traditional manicotti preparation yet tastes every bit as good.
