The Super Bowl is less than 24 hours away and that means it’s time to start preparing to feed guests. Pizza and wings are gameday staples but if you want to mix things up, you have other options. KCRA 3 was joined by Sonya Keister on Friday morning to share multiple recipes from her book “Chef’s Table: Concepts and Recipes for Gathering”.

GOOD RIGHT NOW. THANK YOU SO MUCH. HEY, IF YOU’RE STILL LOOKING FOR SOME GAME DAY SNACK IDEAS, WE HAVE YOU COVERED THIS MORNING. WE’RE WELCOMING SONIA KEISTER. SHE’S OUT OF FOLSOM. SHE’S WRITTEN THIS COOKBOOK. IT’S A REALLY BEAUTIFUL COOKBOOK. AND YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT SOME GAME DAY SNACKS THAT WE CAN DO AT HOME.
YOU’RE KIND OF ELEVATING THE SNACKS A BIT. THAT’S RIGHT. WHAT’S ONE OF THE BIGGEST MISTAKES? FIRST OFF, THAT PEOPLE MAKE WHEN THEY’RE HOSTING AND THEY’RE MAKING APPETIZERS. YEAH. THE BIGGEST ONE THAT I SEE. AND THAT’S WHAT THE BOOK IS KIND OF ABOUT, IS HOW TO PLAN AND PREP YOUR MENU.
SO YOU JUST LIKE ON GAME DAY, YOU DON’T WANT TO GO INTO IT WINGING IT. YOU KNOW, YOU GOT TO PLAN AHEAD. AND THIS MENU HAS A LOT OF THINGS THAT CAN BE DONE UP TO TWO. AND THREE DAYS AHEAD OF TIME. OKAY. SO YEAH, SO LET’S START HERE. WHAT IS TIME MANAGEMENT.
UM, THIS IS MY TAKE ON KIND OF THAT FRIED MOZZARELLA. INSTEAD I’M USING ARANCINI WHICH IS LEFTOVER RISOTTO. SO GOOD. AND INSIDE IS A LITTLE MOZZARELLA. IT’S FRIED UP. OH YES. SO YUMMY. AND THEN THIS IS A HOMEMADE SAUCE. I MADE THAT THREE DAYS AHEAD OF TIME. IT’S HEIRLOOM TOMATOES, BLISTERED PEPPERS.
IT’S GOT A NICE LITTLE KICK TO IT. UM, FOR SOMETHING SWEET. WE DID JUST SOME RUFFLES POTATO CHIPS DIPPED IN CHOCOLATE WITH SOME FLAKY SEA SALT. WHAT KIND OF CHOCOLATE CAN YOU USE? LIKE CHOCOLATE CHIPS? OR DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE, LIKE, A MELTING CHOCOLATE? ACTUALLY, THE BARS MELT BETTER THAN THE CHIPS.
OKAY, WELL, GOOD TO KNOW OVER DOUBLE BOILER. AND YOU JUST DIP IT IN THERE AND YOU’RE GOOD TO GO. OR THE MICROWAVE MICROWAVES TOO. YEP. PERFECT. THERE YOU GO. SO YEAH THAT’S EASY. AND THEN A LITTLE SEA SALT CRUMBLED ON THERE. SEA SALT. PERFECT PERFECT. THESE LOOK INCREDIBLE.
THESE ARE THESE BOTH OF THESE ARE KIND OF MY FAVORITES. THIS ONE IS INSTEAD OF A SLIDER I DID CORNED BEEF WITH A SECRET SAUCE AND SAUERKRAUT OUT AND THEN AND SHOW US WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO DO WITH THIS. WELL, JUST FOR GOOD MEASURE, WE’RE JUST GOING TO PUT A LITTLE
EGG ON THERE AND, UM, LIKE A LITTLE FRIED EGG OVER EASY, OVER EASY. YOU WANT THE YOLK JUST TO KIND OF RUN INTO IT. SO WHEN PEOPLE PUT THE BUN, THEY’VE GOT THIS KIND OF CREAMY EGG YOLK WITH THE CORNED BEEF AND THE SWISS CHEESE. WHAT’S YOUR SECRET SAUCE? ARE YOU TELLING IT?
IT’S A SECRET. NO, I’M KIDDING, IT IS. IT HAS. NO IT DOES. IT HAS COLLABORATED CHILI PEPPERS, HORSERADISH. SO THERE IS A KICK TO IT. NICE. SOME WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE, MAYONNAISE, KETCHUP. AND IT JUST COMES TOGETHER. SO IT’S A LITTLE SWEET. SAVORY. PERFECT. YES. AND WHAT IS THIS RIGHT HERE. THOSE LOOK FANTASTIC.
THOSE ARE. AND THAT HAS A SAUCE ALSO MADE AHEAD OF TIME. UM, THAT ONE IS A CREME FRAICHE DIJON AND HOT HONEY DIPPING SAUCE. WOW. AND THIS IS MY TAKE ON KIND OF PIGS IN A BLANKET BUT ELEVATED A LITTLE BIT. SO I USE AN ALL BUTTER PUFF
PASTRY LIKE ANY KIND, WHICH IS LIKE LIKE A SHORTCUT INGREDIENT TO. YES, IT IS, BUT THE ALL BUTTER, YOU KNOW, MAKES IT EVEN JUST THAT MUCH BETTER. YEAH, TOTALLY. AND THEN YOU TAKE WHATEVER GOOD QUALITY SAUSAGE YOU CAN USE, CABASA, WHATEVER YOU LIKE, WRAP IT TOP IT WITH, UM, SOME PEPPER
JACK CHEESE AND BACON AND BAKE IT OFF. OR LIKE, DO LIKE A JALAPENO CHEDDAR DOG OR SOMETHING. YOU COULD DO THAT TOO. YOU COULD DO THAT TOO. ALL RIGHT. VERY GOOD. SO SOMETHING THAT’S ALWAYS A LOT OF FUN TO IS, UM, BLOODY MARY BAR. YES. WHICH IS PRETTY EASY TO DO.
WHETHER THE ESSENTIALS. RIGHT. WELL I CALL THIS THE WATER COOLER OF THE SUPER BOWL. I MEAN, THIS IS WHERE EVERYONE GATHERS THE PRE-GAME REALLY STARTS. SO THE ESSENTIALS ARE THESE ARE THE ONLY VEGETABLES ON THE TABLE BY THE WAY. UM, YOU WANT TO HAVE SOME PICKLED VEGETABLES FOR COLOR AND
FOR THE ACIDITY, LIKE A JARRED PICKLED ASPARAGUS OR DELI BEANS OR SOMETHING. YES, EXACTLY. SO I HAVE JUST A VARIETY. I LOVE SHRIMP, UM, SO I DID SOME PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED SHRIMP AND SEARED THAT OFF AGAIN. YOU CAN DO ALL THIS AHEAD OF TIME AND JUST SET IT OUT, AND
PEOPLE CAN MAKE THEIR OWN TOO, RIGHT? YOU JUST HAVE ALL THE LITTLE DISHES AND STUFF WITH THE ACCOUTERMENTS. EXACTLY. AND IF YOU HAVE KIDS, YOU CAN DO A ROOT BEER FLOAT BAR. THAT’S A PERFECT IDEA. UM, REAL QUICK, I KNOW THIS IS KIND OF DESSERT ISH. CAN YOU THINK OF A QUICK LIKE,
DESSERT THAT YOU MIGHT OFFER THAT WOULD BE KIND OF EASY TO DO. WELL, I MEAN, I’M ALWAYS A FAN OF, LIKE, LITTLE CUPCAKES BECAUSE YOU COULD PUT THOSE OUT AND DECORATE THEM RIGHT THERE, RIGHT THERE AS PART OF THE PARTY. VERY COOL. GOOD ENOUGH. EVERYTHING IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. THIS IS YOUR COOKBOOK HERE.
