Tonight, Jake Cohen dips into the family recipe box, seemingly inspired by both his mother-in-law and grandmother. First, he attempts Turk-ish leek burgers, a creation that sounds like it could either be a delicious fusion or a culinary collision.
For dessert, he’s riffing on his grandmother’s cake recipe, transforming it into peach crumb bars. One can only hope the result resembles something closer to a sweet treat than a crumbly catastrophe.
In the second half-hour, lamb meatballs seasoned with an intriguing blend of sweet and savory notes take center stage. Accompanying this potentially adventurous main course are cardamom snickerdoodles with a citrus twist.
Could this be a surprisingly harmonious pairing or a flavor combination that sends taste buds scrambling for cover?
