E114 - Beefing It Up with Cookbook Author Jessica Formicola

12/04/22 • 30 min

1 Listener

This week I talk with food blogger and cookbook author Jessica Formicola about her cookbook Beef It Up, which not only puts a new spin on comfort classics but also helps demystify the many different cuts of beef and how to cook them. She gives us some great ideas for cooking beef, from the spectacular to the everyday. We also talk about the underutilized technique of browning and how it can be used on everything from meat, to spices, to vegetables to add flavor.

The meal plan for this week features beef (of course!) in a few different ways. Korean Beef and Rice Bowls are full of flavor and the Beef Noodle Skillet uses only one pan and comes together in no time. Head over to COOKtheSTORY.com/MealPlans to get the meal plan with links to recipes, and the grocery list worksheet that goes with it. This one is Meal Plan #114.
Have a great week!
