Shrimp and Sausage Gravy with Rice Grits

February 17, 2019 by The Runaway Spoon 2 Comments

Shrimp gravy has roots in the Low Country and in Louisiana, and my version is a variation of … [Read more...] about Shrimp and Sausage Gravy with Rice Grits

As St. Patrick’s Day approaches, I always turn to hearty meat and potato dishes with a nice Irish flair, and this classic with a twist makes a perfect family meal.

It's nice to have a really hearty, hot dip as part of the spread when the ravenous football hordes are hungry. This is a jazzed up version of a classic sausage dip recipe, with warm, winter flavor.  Zesty Italian sausage with the bite of fennel is paired with woodsy sage and creamy, nutty fontina cheese, with a little kick of salty Parmesan to round it out.  Don’t skimp on the … [Read more...] about Italian Sausage Dip with Fontina and Sage

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
