Shepherd's Pie

Do you have a good recipe for shepherd's pie?

—Alan

Hi Alan,

I most certainly do—and it’s one of the site’s more popular recipes. Go to Warming Shepherd’s Pie for a terrific savory pie made of mashed potatoes, ground beef and mixed veggies.

    My husband will not eat any meat unless it is well, well, well, done. It is very difficult to cook a good steak this way that doesn't taste like leather. Any suggestions? --Robin

    My Grandmother used to make the most wonderful really SOFT molasses cookies, but whenever I try to make them, they always turn out hard, only good for dunking in milk or coffee. Can you find a true recipe for soft ones? Thank you. --Bernice
