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
2 cups white vinegar
2 cups dry white wine
3/4 cup salt
1/2 cup sugar
4 dill flowers or sprigs
2 tablespoons caraway seeds
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
8 cloves garlic, peeled, and thinly sliced
18 firm Kirby cucumbers, well washed
directions
In a large enamel-lined pot, combine vinegar, wine, salt, sugar, dill, caraway seeds, red pepper flakes and garlic. Add 4 quarts of water.
Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Immediately turn off heat, and allow mixture to steep for 30 minutes.
Place cucumbers in a very large glass or plastic bowl. Pour vinegar mixture over the cucumbers, and submerge them by placing a plate on them (make sure no air is trapped beneath). Weight plate down with a glass or ceramic pot.
Allow mixture to cool, and refrigerate for at least three days before using.

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.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
