"This was an absolutely awesome recipe!! I made it for company and everyone just raved. I used 2 heaping tsps. of cayenne. That makes it pleasantly hot but we like hot and spicy food so we loved it. In addition, I used flank steak,and left it in the marinade for 4 hours.It was as tender as it can be. I also added some snow peas and some julienned..."

"This makes an absolutely awesome soup!! I am asked to make this all the time and it is so filling and delicious. It freezes beautifully so I always have it on hand. Don't forget to shave some parmesian cheese over the top of each serving, get a slice of ciapatta bread and just pig out. I cannot believe that more haven't commented because ..."

"I was skeptical about an all-pork meatloaf. I figured it would turn out like a hockey puck that could be kicked up and down the street without harm. I do like pork, though, so I tried it and WOW. What a pleasant surprise!! It was juicy and tender and, oh, so flavorful. Spices were right-on. I couldn't find the bratwurst Aida recommended so ..."

"The marinade was excellent. It was perfect for the chicken, however, the recommended cooking time of 10 minutes per side was way way off. It came out like shoe leather. Next time I will reduce the cooking time substantially and I know I will have a winner."

"This was an awesome recipe!! I used boneless pork butt. It was cooked to perfection in 6 - 6.5 hours on low. I could not believe how delicious the meat was. It literally melted in your mouth. The sauce had the perfect amount of sweetness even though I cut back on the sugar by about a third. Next time, I will cut the sugar by half. There was a ..."

"So delicious, so easy. I had my doubts about the primary mustard content of the marinade but when you taste them, there is only a hint of mustard. They are just simply delicious.
The other thing I liked about them is there was no sugar, other than what is contained in the soy sauce. So, diabetics, like my cousin, can enjoy them knowing t..."

"Awesome combination of ingredients. I just added some crumbled feta cheese and it was so delicious. My lime was very big so I needed to add a little more olive oil to counter the tang a bit. Other than that, it was perfect. Everyone raved!! I will make it often. Thanks Giada! Your recipes haven't failed me yet."

"I have been making this broth for years and it is the absolute best you can make. I stick to the recipe exactly and cook in the crockpot for 24 hours on low.....liquid gold. My friends are amazed at how good it is and all want the recipe. It makes homemade soups SO much better than using store-bought. You need to look around for the marrow bon..."

"This is excellent!! I added 3/4 cup of wine....very good sausage from the Italian butcher.....whole tomatoes that I crushed in my hands......... and an additional cup of water after an hour of cooking. I pretty much stuck to the recipe and it was thick and delicious after 2 hours of simmering. So delicious and not the least bit runny. It coated..."
