Finnish Meatballs (Lihapyorykoita)

These Finnish meatballs, or lihapyorykoita, are my family's favorite meal. They're made with punajuuret, or beets, and perunasose, which are mashed potatoes. Serve it with cranberry sauce. Personally, I also like it with a quarter of a pickle on the side.

Skillet Cornbread

This skillet cornbread tastes great! It's slightly sweet and a good base recipe to experiment with. Cast iron skillets are versatile. They take a little bit of time to warm up but preheating the skillet allows the cornbread to cook more evenly.

Étouffée is a delicious shellfish stew that's a New Orleans classic. I use a homemade spice blend in this recipe and demonstrate that it is possible to get good results using frozen shrimp, which is sometimes the only option.
