Frozen, ready-to-use phyllo dough is a wonderful cheater ingredient, which can be used to produce an array of gorgeous pastries that look like you put way more effort into making them than you really did.

My only complaint with this operation is...to read the rest of Chef John's article about Baked Feta Phyllo with Honey please follow this link to become a member.)

I will also admit to using a...to read the rest of Chef John's article about Mongolian Meatloaf please follow this link to become a member.)

Chicken Marbella – The Best Chicken Recipe Ever?

I’m very happy to be sharing my version of the Silver Palate's famous Chicken Marbella, which many have called the best chicken recipe of all time.

Chili Dog Mac and Cheese – A Very Successful Failure

“Black Magic” Sesame Crisps – Thin, Dark, and Handsome

As promised, here’s the recipe for what I called “Black Magic” crackers in the Horrible Hand video.
