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.

ingredients
4 thick slices stale white bread
1/4 cup cold milk, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
2 tablespoons cold milk
1/2 cup fish roe (see note)
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/2 small onion, finely minced
2 lemons, juiced (to taste)
1 egg yolk
1/4 cup olive oil, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
2 tablespoons olive oil
directions
Remove the crust and soak the bread in the cold milk.
Meanwhile, beat the roe thoroughly in a mortar or in a blender until it is soft.
Squeeze the bread dry and crumble into the roe. Add the garlic and onion, half the lemon juice and beat (or blend) to a creamy paste.
When it is smooth, break in the egg yolk and continue to beat or blend while dribbling in the olive oil and the rest of the lemon juice.
Chill and serve as a dip with whole radishes, black olives, celery stalks, and Middle Eastern bread.
NOTE: The most authentic roe to use is tarama, the dried and salted roe of the grey mullet. Smoked cod's roe can be used instead, in which case the skins will need to be removed first.
Most taramasalata sold commercially is artificially colored and tastes nothing like the homemade version. It keeps for about 10 days in a sealed container in the refrigerator.

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.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
