Chef John's Baklava

I tend to enjoy a generous ratio between nuts and pastry, as that makes me feel a little bit better about the copious amounts of sugar in this, but above and beyond that, I think this approach produces the best texture. You can use as many layers of filo as you want, but be careful, since too many may not cook through, and the only way to mess this up is to undercook the dough. The top and bottom layers need to dry out, and thoroughly crisp up, otherwise, once the syrup gets ladled over, you'll have a soggy mess.

Pork Tenderloin Sandwich

A classic sandwich in the Midwest, particularly popular in Iowa and Indiana, but there are regional variations throughout the entire United States. I've always thought of this as a German schnitzel on a sandwich. It's crispy and crunchy... tender deliciousness!

Brandied Pears

Brandied pears are an impressive dessert. They're pretty enough for a special occasion but light enough to follow any meal.

Slow Cooker Cheeseburger Soup

Use your slow cooker to make this easy cheeseburger soup. Don't skip the toppings - they make the soup!

Chinese Spareribs

These Chinese spareribs are tender, juicy, and delicious. I created this recipe after nothing caught my eye while searching for a good sparerib recipe. I cook the spareribs in a broiler tray in the oven, but they should be fine to cook on a grill.
