Aha! Connection Recipes you will LOVE
My first featured chef is dear friend and neighbor, Matt Kern.
Hello to all you AHA Connection followers! I have the pleasure of sharing with you some recipes that I hope you will enjoy this Valentine’s Day.
I grew up in Atlanta, so many of my culinary influences come from Southern Chefs and the Southern comfort food my mother made when I was a child. Everything from smothered pork chops to chicken fried steak and grits could often be found on our dinner table.
In the summer of 1980, my mother sent me off to a Summer School focused on Home Economics – I guess she was getting tired of cooking for me and thought it time that her 11 year fend for himself! Believe it or not, that was the beginning of my passion for cooking!
As you prepare for Valentine’s Day, I give you two of my favorite recipes – one appetizer and one main course. Enjoy and if you have questions, please feel free to reach out to me personally.
Matt
First Course: Polpette
Main Course: Paul Prudhomme’s Barbecued Shrimp
