Recipes from Andrew Zimmern

  • Cold Cucumber Soup with Yogurt and Dill

    In the Zimmern house, when the weather turns steamy in Minneapolis, we always keep a glass pitcher of cold soup, like this cucumber yogurt soup of Turkish origin, in the fridge.—Andrew Zimmern

  • Grandma Zimmern’s Tailgating Pot of Love

    This one-pot meal is fantastic football food. I get my sausage from Kramarczuk’s in Minneapolis, and it’s worth mail ordering some links if you don’t have a good local sausage shop.—AZ

  • Pan-Roasted Cornish Hens with Calvados and Apples

    I make this during the cold-weather months, which include everything but July here in Minnesota. The Calvados, the apple vinegar and the apples themselves lend a sophisticated quality to this dish.—AZ

  • Asopao with Chicken and Shrimp

  • Daube de Boeuf with Belgian Ale

    January in Minnesota. End of story. We know a thing or two about cold-weather comfort food, especially a one-pot rock star beef stew that will warm you from the inside out.—AZ

  • More Zimmern Recipes

    I created this bacon-and-egg dish when I was a chef at a French bistro in Minneapolis in the early ’90s. It’s hard to beat the contrasting combination of salty and sweet, hot and cold, soft and crunchy.—AZ
