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

The cooking method may be simple but the results are outstanding. Oxtails are slowly simmered in a seasoned sauce until they are melt-in-your-mouth tender.

2 tablespoons cooking oil
3 pounds oxtails
1 onion, sliced
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 cup ketchup
salt and black pepper, as needed
1/2 cup water
Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oxtails and cook, turning as needed, until well browned.
Add the onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft.
Add the marjoram, basil, thyme, ketchup, salt, pepper, and water to the skillet. Bring to a low simmer, cover the skillet and cook for 2 hours or until the oxtails are tender. Check on the level of liquid in the pan occasionally and add more water as needed.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
