Feeding Pat Conroy
When Vince and I were dating, he used to love to tell me all about Beaufort. One of Beaufort's claims to fame (that he repeated way more than once) was that The Great Santini had been filmed here. “You know, from Pat Conroy's book. He's Conrack. He's the guy who wrote The Lords of Discipline.” After we were married, screening our VHS copy of The Great Santini was one of our favorite things to do with guests who had never visited Beaufort before. We'd all watch the movie and then Vince and I would take everyone downtown and show them the sites they had just seen on our television. Pat Conroy was our local star and we were mighty proud of him!Al...
Celebrating the Big 250!
Who needs an excuse to have a party? Those of you who know me, know that I'll make up a reason to celebrate something, even when there's no real occasion. In this case, I think a little party to commemorate a milestone for me – and for Lowcountry Weekly – is in perfect order. This is my 250th Everyday Gourmet column. Back in 2005, when I first started writing, the column was named “Easy Cooking with Debbi.” Eventually it morphed into “Easy Cooking” and finally into “Everyday Gourmet.” I've saved every single column that I've ever written. They're all clipped and glued onto poster board. The first columns were only half of a page. The ...

Wouldn't it be fun to host a small party for them – just to say “thank you?”Your party doesn't have to be a fancy affair. Keep it small. Limit the guest list to family and special friends. You're not expected to invite the entire wedding party. Keep the event intimate and informal.Coordinate the menu with the tone of your party. If you're planning a casual event, opt to serve the food buffet-style. Tailor your food to the time of day. If you are hosting a luncheon, you may want to stick to less elaborate, lunch-appropriate dishes. ...
Salmon with Cream Sauce Dijon
Gorgeous fish when whole, king, sockeye, and coho are choice wild fish, available from spring through fall. Atlantic salmon, only available farm raised, is notable for its consistent quality, but is not as flavorful as the wild varieties. Use tweezers to remove any stray pin bones, which run down the center of the salmon fillets before cooking.
