The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

serves/makes:
ready in:
2-5 hrs
2-5 hrs
ingredients
1 cup dry white wine
3 green onions, white part only, finely chopped
2 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard or regular yellow mustard
10 black peppercorns, crushed
16 jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined, with tails on
directions
Combine the wine, green onions, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, and crushed black pepper in a zip-top plastic bag or shallow container. Mix well then add the shrimp. Seal the bag or cover the container and place in the refrigerator. Let the shrimp marinate for 3 hours. Remove the shrimp from the refrigerator (but leave in the marinade) and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.
When ready to grill, heat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the shrimp from the marinade and place the marinade in a saucepan over high heat. Bring the marinade to a boil and cook until the liquid is reduced to 1/3 cup. This will take about 10 minutes.
Place the shrimp on the grill (individually, on skewers, or on a grilling screen). Base the shrimp with the sauce and cook, turning as needed, until pink and cooked, about 3-4 minutes.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
