Recipe: Venison Rib Roast

I developed this recipe for an Axis deer, classified as an exotic species, as are fallow deer and other non-native cervids; they are legal game throughout the year. They are also incredibly tasty. The key to this roast — as it is with prime beef — is the dry-aging process.

Recipe: Andrew Zimmern's Bohemian Roast Duck With Caraway

In the 1960s and 70s there were dozens of eastern European and Czech restaurants on NYC's Upper East Side over on 2nd, 1st and York Avenues. That old neighborhood of Yorkville was near our home on East 71st street and my dad and I would walk over to our favorite Czech restaurant where we would always order the Bohemian-style duck with caraway. Paired with braised red cabbage and a side of potato dumplings, it was a thing of beauty and that memory and that dish in particular motivated me to create this recipe...one that has become a favorite of mine over the years.

Recipe: Rasika's Smoked Rack Of Pork Vindaloo

This rack of pork — smoky, adobe red, caramelized from the grill, and majestic — makes a sensational presentation at a dinner party.
