#15 - An Austrian Supper
Season 10 - Episode 12 - Aired 3/20/2010
Breaded Pork Cutlets (Pork Schnitzel) - The hallmark of wiener schnitzel is its light, puffy bread-crumb coating. So why is it typically so soggy and greasy? Austrian-Style Potato Salad - For potato salad that’s both creamy and light, do as the Austrians do: Ditch the mayo and look to the soup pot. Equipment - Traditional Skillets
#16 - Sensation Skillet Recipes
Season 10 - Episode 11 - Aired 3/13/2010
Stovetop Roast Chicken with Lemon-Herb Sauce - One skillet and a trick from Chinese cookery were all we needed to produce the speediest crisp and juicy roast chicken that never saw the inside of an oven. Skillet Lemon Soufflé - Swapping the ramekin for a skillet took some of the fuss out of this finicky dessert. But for brighter lemon flavor, we had to fudge another French technique. Equipment - Inexpensive juicers
#17 - Egg Dishes With an Accent
Season 10 - Episode 10 - Aired 3/6/2010
French Onion and Bacon Tart - French Onion Tart is similar to quiche but delivers a more refined slice of pie, with more onions than custard. The problem? Rolling and fitting the dough into a tart pan. Spanish Tortilla with Roasted Red Peppers and Peas - This tapas bar favorite boasting meltingly tender potatoes in a dense, creamy omelet would be the perfect simple supper—if it didn’t cook in an entire quart of olive oil. Equipment - Electric Wine Openers
#18 - Rolls and Loaves
Season 10 - Episode 9 - Aired 2/27/2010
Rustic Dinner Rolls - Turning flour, water, and yeast into crusty, airy rolls is one of the hardest bits of kitchen wizardry around. We wanted to make the process foolproof. Multi-Grain Bread - Some multigrain bread is better suited to propping open a door than making a sandwich. We wanted a light but flavorful loaf--and we didn't want to spend all day making it.
#19 - Meat and Potatoes for Company
Season 10 - Episode 8 - Aired 2/20/2010
Roast Beef Tenderloin -The classic approach to roasting this prime cut sacrifices juiciness for crust. Why settle for anything less than perfection? French Mashed Potatoes - French cookery’s intensely rich, cheesy take on mashed potatoes flouts the rules. To Americanize the dish, we ignored a few more. Vive la résistance! Equipment - Slicing Knives
#20 - Saucy Italian Favorites
Season 10 - Episode 7 - Aired 2/13/2010
Hearty Italian Meat Sauce - This over-the-top Italian-American tomato sauce typically calls for six cuts of meat and half a day at the stove. We wanted the same flavor with a lot less work. Pasta with Tomato and Almond Pesto -Not all pesto is basil, pine nuts, and Parmesan. In Sicily, tomatoes and almonds take center stage. Equipment - Blenders
#21 - The Cookie Jar
