In this episode of “What’s Cooking?” Michael travels to the Twin Cities where Allrecipes home cook, Raelee, teaches us how to make Tapas!

We started with Raelee’s Creamy Goat Cheese and Honey recipe, a simple tapa made with creamy goat cheese, honey, rosemary, and a light dusting of crushed pecans. Delicious, light, and melt-in-your-mouth good. We followed that up with Easier Cranberry Puffs, delicious raspberry- and cream cheese-filled wontons that, with the added jalapeno and red curry powder, had just the right amount of kick! We substituted the cranberries with fresh raspberries we purchased at the Mill City Farmers’ Market. For the final tapa, Raelee created Butterfly Chili Lime Prawn Spedini with Raspberry Dipping Sauce: beautifully butterflied prawns with a fun citrus and spice twist.
