The cooler weather is knocking at our door with the warm fall days and chilly nights but soon enough we will be right into winter and it’s about his time of year I start pulling out those recipes that keep us warm and comfy cozy!

Braising is simply slow roasting in the oven with liquid that covers our ingredients about three quarters of the way.  It’s kinda like a hot tub- not all the way submerged so we get a rich roasted flavor but have the moisture that gives us that fall apart in your mouth deliciousness!

You’ve probably seen the little bags of Chipolino Onions at the grocery store in the produce department.  They’re so cute and tasty but there’s a trick to them!  To easily peel- all you need to do is toss them in boiling water for 1-2 minutes and drain. The skins will slide right off.

Otherwise plan on spending the rest of your life peeling them 🙂
