Saute
Gratin of Penne, Turkey, and Mushrooms
Because Gruyère is somewhat salty, use unbrined roast turkey in this dish. Also, and old-fashioned turkey gravy (no cider or soy sauce) will enhance the gratin best.
Skirt Steak with Poblano Rajas and Zucchini
Rajas are chile strips cooked with onion (raja means "slice" in Spanish).
Liver and Blue Cheese Pâté
Larry Leichtman of Phoenix, Arizona, writes: "Thirteen years ago, I sold my business in Los Angeles and moved to Phoenix. One of the first things my neighbors discovered about me was that I love to cook. We get together often, and I'm usually the one in the kitchen. Being the cook means never having to do the dishes."
Serve with crackers or baguette rounds.
