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.

The spicy sausage with cannellini beans, tomatoes and seasonings is a perfect match. If you don't have a clay pot you can easily cook this recipe in a pan with a lid.

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion
1 small carrot
1 stalk celery
2 cloves garlic
6 hot pork sausages
1 tablespoon chopped rosemary
2 sprigs thyme
1 cup canned diced tomatoes
2 cans (14 ounce size) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups chicken stock or water
salt and pepper
Heat the clay pot over a medium high flame (place the pot on a diffuser if using an electric range). Or heat a stainless steel saucepan over medium heat.
Heat oil in the pan. Chop onion, then peel and dice carrot, and chop celery all in a small dice. Cook onion, carrot, and celery in the oil for about 5 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook for another two minutes.
Working in batches if necessary, brown sausages in the oil with the vegetables. Stir in herbs, tomatoes, beans, water or stock, and a bit of salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cover with a lid and cook for about 10 minutes.
Remove sausages from the mixture and cut into 2 inch pieces then mix back in with the beans. Adjust seasoning if necessary with additional salt and pepper. Serve warm.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
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.
