Parma, Italy is a small town with a huge culinary footprint, home to Parmesan cheese, Prosciutto di Parma and some of the best tomatoes in Italy.

Cheese Please
How do you make any dish even more delicious? Some would argue, just add cheese. To prove this point Sara’s got two recipes elevated by our favorite milk product: a French Onion Soup Burger topped with melty, gooey cheese and an equally gooey Alsatian Onion Pie with caramelized onions and melted Gruyere. Later, a visit to a dairy farm where the cows are treated like queens and a homemade ricotta.

Weeknight Two for One
Easy weeknight cooking takes strategy, and Sara has one of the best: cooking a dish one night, then repurposing it into a different meal for another night. Food entrepreneur Maya Kaimal joins Sara to make Turkey Keema with sweet potatoes and ground meat, which morphs into Indian stuffed peppers another night. Then Sara Sautee’s Duck Breasts for a quick meal. She uses those in a Peking Duck Wrap.

Vegetarians, this one’s for you – Sara’s elegant Butternut Squash and Date Crostata sits comfortably next to the holiday turkey as a main dish. Or you can wow them with Sara’s crispy Roast Duck with Duck Fat Popovers.

Then Sara goes to tiny, romantic Key West to cook with renowned seafood chef Norman Van Aken.

Sketches of Spain
In Spain, paella is so popular there are competitions between towns for the best recipe. It is especially so in Valencia, where Sara cooks with local chef Franck Garanger. At the local market, he finds his secret ingredients for a showstopping paella, cooked outdoors, on the open fire, overlooking the sea. Then, Sara sautés fish topped with a colorful Gazpacho Vinaigrette.
