Western USA

The American West is big country. It takes in the vast high plains, the rugged mountain states, the arid Southwest, and the verdant Pacific Northwest. The cuisine that has grown up here reflects this diversity. It can be as simple as a buffalo burger tossed on an open flame or as well-heeled as a wine dinner served in a fancy San Francisco restaurant. There’s spicy Southwest cuisine from Arizona and New Mexico and delicate Asian-inspired cuisine along the coastal stretches of California, Oregon, and Washington. And let’s not forget that here in the West the wild salmon makes its last stand. Yes, there’s much to the claim that the West is best.

Crispy Baked Basa

Reviewed on Nov. 17, 2008 by Caroline C
Basa is great for people like me who don't really like fish but eat it because it's healthy. I'd never had it before, and would compare it to tilapia. I was expecting it to taste muddy like catfish, but it really didn't. The only changes I made were to use crushed saltines instead of Melbe toast, and I added garlic powder to the crumb mixture instead of using fresh. I'm still not a fish fan but this turned out great. Thanks!

Slow-Cooked Corn Chowder

Reviewed on Nov. 17, 2008 by INDYSAY
If you rate this on ease and taste, it's definitely a 5. That being said, I took the liberty of making some changes that I feel helped the rating (if I had not done these things, I'm not sure I would have given it a 5): I used small baby red potatoes chopped up instead of hashbrowns, substituted ground turkey sausage instead of ham, and added lots of chopped carrots and celery. Oh my goodness, it was so tasty I have just finished my 3rd bowl today. :) Thanks for this recipe!
