Looking for a fun summer side salad for your next family meal? Why not try this delicious black-eyed pea salad recipe. A fresh summer salad with lots of flavor that you can serve as a perfect appetizer for a meal with your friends and family.

To make your black-eyed peas more flavorful, you may also add garlic cloves, diced celery, and bay leaf. This will add a flavor contrast that will be perfect with the light tomato vinaigrette.

Grains, dried beans, peas, and lentils are rich sources of nutrients, but they are difficult to digest unless properly prepared, as they contain enzyme inhibitors that keep them from germinating under dry conditions. This is the reason why you need to soak the beans overnight so that the body can easily digest the black eyed peas.

1 lb marinated octopus
4 cups chicken stock
4 cups water
16 oz cherry tomatoes
4 oz green bell peppers

Savory Braised Oxtail in Wine

Transform this braised oxtail into something rich and succulent for an incredibly satisfying and delicious meal for the entire family. A flavorful and easy oxtail recipe that you can prepare in just an hour for your next family meal.

Oxtails are an underrated cut of meat. People tend to choose the cuts they are more familiar with. Cuts like oxtails are only used by chefs and other culinarians — who have ample time to develop flavor using time-consuming techniques. Oxtail can sometimes be hard to find except in specialty butcher shops. But, they are worth the effort. These cuts are gelatinous and have a full flavor and texture when cooked right.

Tomato puree would be a perfect addition to this recipe. It adds a depth of flavor that balances the acidity of the wine and the sweetness of the vegetables. If you prefer using the traditional way of cooking the oxtail without the use of a pressure cooker, then you can simmer the oxtail for 3-4 hours until tender.

Adding fresh herbs such as thyme, basil, and parsley would be a perfect addition. Roasting the oxtail for 1 hour before transferring to the pressure cooker, adds another dimension of flavor and creates a nice color on the oxtail's outer layer.

2 tbsp paprika
8 lbs oxtails
½ cup olive oil
2 cups beef stock
2 cup red wine
1 large onion
4 celery stalks

Salisbury Steak Recipe

This homemade salisbury steak recipe is an amazing dinner idea or lunch for the whole family. A delicious homemade salisbury steak with a rich and creamy mushroom sauce. This kid-friendly recipe is a great way to transform humble ground beef into something amazing.

This recipe has a softer and tastier salisbury patty than you might expect. You may also grate the onions rather than mincing them. You will avoid the risk of the steaks falling apart if the onions aren't chopped finely enough. Searing the beef patties creates a wonderful texture and flavor in the mushroom gravy. It also adds great color to the patties.

What is the difference between a salisbury steak recipe and hamburger patties? Hamburger patties are made with nothing more than good quality ground beef, salt, and pepper. Whereas the ingredients in Salisbury Steak patties are more like meatballs – including breadcrumbs, onion, and flavorings such as Worcestershire sauce.

Red and yellow bell peppers are a great addition to this recipe. In addition, you may bake it in the oven for a roasted flavor profile.

Salisbury Steak:
1 ounce onion
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
20 oz ground beef
2 cloves garlic
1 large egg
2 tbsp ketchup
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
3 tsp dijon mustard
Gravy:
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 oz onion
5 oz mushrooms
2 tbsp unsalted butter

Grilled Pork Roulade

A perfect summer treat for pork lovers! An herbaceous grilled pork roulade for an easy family meal. A delicious summer pork tenderloin that you can serve both for lunch and dinner meals. It has a fennel curry sauce and a fresh herb salad that pairs so well with the smoky and bright flavors of the pork tenderloin. This pork is stuffed with a flavorful chutney.
