This post is sponsored by Princess Cruises. All opinions expressed are my own. I have a deep love of Mexican Street Corn. The flavors in it are just so amazing. In fact, they are so inspiring that I even created a soup based on the flavors. You just can’t help but love these deliciously indulgent flavors. I recently returned from a trip to the Mexican Caribbean with Princess Cruises. 90% of Caribbean ports are open for business, and tourism is such an important part of the economy in all of those ports....

Do I have to use a stand mixer to make Chocolate Sugar Cookies? You can use a stand mixer or a hand mixer. It is important that you use one of these, as the cream cheese and butter in the dough need to be whipped for the best texture. Why do I need to use corn syrup? The corn syrup helps to keep the cookies chewy, but if you don’t like corn syrup, you can omit it....

What Does Curry Taste Like? If you’ve never tasted curry before, you’re in for a treat. It boasts quite a unique flavor. It’s savory, sweet, and earthy. It also has a brightness to it, and the yellow color lights up any dish that you add it to. It’s simply delicious with the chicken, celery, raisins, and mayonnaise in this picnic-perfect dish. Can I Make This Dish Vegan? While the base of our curry chicken salad recipe is, well, chicken, you can make this dish vegan with some adjustments:...

Cream Cheese Substitute in Easy Oreo Truffles: If you don’t want to use cream cheese, you can always substitute with 1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk. Chocolate Dipping Tip: Dipping the balls into melted chocolate can get super messy. To save your fingers, use a fork or a toothpick carefully inserted into the Oreo ball to dip them. Melting Options: There are a few different ways you can melt your chocolate. We love how quick and easy it is to melt in the microwave, but you can also use a double boiler method or a small crock pot to melt....

Strawberries: You can use either frozen or fresh strawberries in this recipe. In the middle of summer when they are in abundance, we love to use fresh strawberries. The rest of the year, we stick with frozen. If you opt for fresh, be sure to let your jello mixture cool before incorporating them. Fruit Options in Grandma’s Strawberry Pretzel Salad: You really don’t have to stick with strawberries in this recipe....

Meat Options: We prefer the flavor of Italian sausage, but you can always replace with ground beef if desired. While it will affect the taste, you can also use ground turkey or chicken as well. Spice Level: You get to completely control the spice in this recipe with your sausage choice. Stick to a mild sausage if you are particularly heat sensitive, and opt for hot if you love that extra kick!...

Wet vs. Dry Scallops: You can typically find two different varieties of scallops at your grocery store. Wet scallops and dry scallops. Wet scallops are shucked on the boat, put in a wet solution to preserve them, and typically frozen. It is hard to get a good sear on wet scallops. Dry scallops are shucked on the boat, and put onto ice to transport. They are more translucent than wet scallops, have better flavor, and most importantly, they sear better because they don’t soak up any additional water weight....

How to Brine a Turkey: Brining your turkey adds flavor and moisture to your meat from the inside out. How to do a Turkey Injection: You can inject your turkey with little pockets of flavor. How to Roast a Turkey: Prep your turkey by removing all the innards. They might be in a bag if you are lucky. If there is a neck you’ll have to remove that as well. You want a completely empty cavity in the middle of the turkey....

Baking Pan Options: To make cheesecake, it is preferable to use a springform pan. This is a cake pan that has a removable bottom. The sides of the pan are sprung and it has a clip to adjust the sides. Springform pans are sold in various sizes, generally 4 inches, 6 to 7 inches, and 9 inches. A good standard size to have is a 9-inch pan. If you do not have a springform pan, you can always use a standard cake pan....

How do you tell if asparagus is good? Asparagus should have a bright green color. The tips should be colorful and look healthy. The spears should all be stiff and hold their shape. There should not be any unpleasant slimy texture. Asparagus is often sold standing upright in water. This is because it stays more fresh when stored this way.
