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.

A simple but gourmet meal. Tender leg of lamb is marinated overnight and then simply grilled 10 minutes per side. The secret is in the rosemary-mustard marinade.

3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 small onion, peeled and quartered
2/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 leg of lamb, boned and butterflied
Combine the garlic, onion, olive oil, lemon juice, rosemary, mustard, mustard seeds, salt, and pepper in a food processor. Process until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a non-reactive container or large zip-top plastic bag.
Place the lamb in the marinade and turn to coat. Cover the container or seal the bag and refrigerate the lamb overnight, turning it occasionally.
Preheat the grill to medium heat.
Remove the lamb from the marinade and let the lamb come to room temperature while the grill heats.
Place the lamb on the grill and cook for 10 minutes per side or until desired doneness.
Remove the lamb from the grill and let it rest, covered lightly with foil, for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
