  • THRILLER

    I only recently discovered Rocco Dispirito on ION Life channel and immediately wanted more. First recipe I plan to make is the Lemongrass Lobster Salad and Miso Chicken. The recipes are more than ingredients, they include steps to coach maximum flavor into your dish. Makes me want to search for more James Beard award winning cookbooks.
