This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

These tasty bites of bar food were created in England (named for the store that sold them). They originally were covered in fish paste. We'll stick with the sausage version, thank you!

ingredients
4 hard-boiled eggs
1/4 cup seasoned flour
3 cups dry bread crumbs
2 pounds bulk pork sausage, spicy or regular
2 eggs, beaten
oil, for frying
directions
Carefully remove the shells from the hard-boiled eggs. Set the eggs aside.
Heat 2-inches of oil in a deep, heavy pan (or use a deep fryer) to 375 degrees F.
Place the flour and bread crumbs in separate shallow dishes. Divide the sausage into equal portions. Press each portion out into a flat square. Wrap each egg with one of the sausage squares, making sure that the egg is completely sealed. Lightly roll the covered eggs in the flour.
Coat each egg with beaten egg, then roll them in the bread crumbs.
Place the scotch eggs into the hot oil, in batches, if needed. Let fry at 350 degrees F for 5-8 minutes, or until crisp and browned. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and let drain on paper toweling.
Serve hot or cold.
To bake these instead of frying, bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes, or until crisp and browned.

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.
Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.

I bake mine, making them a lot healthier. No difference in preparation, just bake them at 350C for 35 minutes. Delish! Oh, and using sage sausage meat makes for a very nice twist.

I use a deep fryer set at 375F. They come out perfectly every time.

Oh man, these things are so good. They are perfect if you are drinking and need some drunk munchies. Gut bombs for sure. So good.
