Reader questions from Ask Ina:

How much in advance can I make your Fresh Corn Salad?

From Sandra McCullough - Oregon

I find that Fresh Corn Salad is best served the day it's made.

Having friends over for a casual pizza dinner. Would you serve starters with this?

From Marianne - Milwaukee, WI

I would serve a big Italian salad with lots greens, radicchio and Parmesan alongside the pizza.

Do you serve salad at the beginning of a meal or the end? As I understand it is a European/American difference?

From Andrea - Venice, Fl

Both are perfectly fine. It's definitely a french custom to serve salad after the main course, but I prefer to serve it first. 

Planning to make roast chicken with bread and arugula salad for 6 people. I am using 2 whole chickens. Can I use a Cuisinart roasting pan instead of an iron skillet? A 10 or 12 inch skillet won't have enough room for 2 chickens.

From Thida Lwin - Irvine, CA

I haven't tried roasting two chickens in a roasting pan, but I have doubled the recipe many times using two separate cast iron skillets- it works beautifully! 

Do you use mostly white dishes and white Le Creuset? I love various colors but have a hard time mixing colors when entertaining. Am I being silly?

From Cathy Gilchrist - Asheville, NC

I use mostly white dishes and serving platters because they generally make the food look the best.  There are a few exceptions:  salads and green vegetables can look beautiful on grey platters and I love to serve dessert on colorful old-fashioned plates that I collect at flea markets and antique china stores.

What would be a good salad, vegetable or starch to serve with your Beef Bourguignon?

From Sandy Lauper - Blue Point, NY

Since the Beef Bourguignon really stands on its own, I might serve a green salad and a piece of Brie as a separate course. I like the recipe for Green Salad Vinaigrette in my book, Barefoot in Paris.

Do you have a recipe for a Caesar Salad dressing that doesn't include any anchovies?

From Wes and Kent Quesenberry-Poteete - Peachtree Corners, GA

My recipe for Caesar Dressing in Barefoot Contessa Parties does have anchovies, but you can omit them and the dressing will still be delicious!

What are your go-to brunch recipes that you can make ahead of time?

From Molly C. - Washington, DC

For brunch, I like to make a Potato Basil Frittata ( the recipe is in Barefoot Contessa Family Style), platters of smoked salmon, bagels, cream cheese, and in the summer, a fresh tomato salad. For dessert, I serve a big platter of fresh fruit. The frittata goes into the oven about an hour before you serve it, so everything is ready before he guests arrive.

I'm going to Paris in December for the first time and would love some restaurant recommendations.

From David L. - Evanston, IL

Our favorite place in Paris is also one of the simplest - Cafe de Flore in the 6th Arrondissement. We order an omelet, a green salad, and a glass of Champagne and watch the Paris world go by. Heaven!

What sides would you serve with your Penne with Five Cheeses recipe?

From Janet H. - Cape Elizabeth, Maine

With the Penne with Five Cheeses, I would probably not serve a side dish. Instead, I would make a first course like a tomato salad or melon & prosciutto. In the winter, I might make some kind of winter arugula salad - but nothing with cheese, since the main course is so cheesy!

Once I pick fresh herbs from my garden, how can I store them to make sure they last as long as possible in my refrigerator?

From Jen T. - East Hampton, NY

To make herbs last a few days in refrigerator, I wash them, dry them well in a salad spinner, and place them in a plastic storage bag with a slightly damp paper towel.
