I heard the familiar sound of the garbage truck rounding the corner of our street, and sprung out of bed and ran to put out what we had. What a shock, it's not shorts weather in Kansas Dorothy! I wont complain though, there is still (even with all 2020 has thrown us) so much beauty [...]
170g (6 ounces) unsalted butter, cut into pieces 2 tablespoon vegetable oil, I use canola 6 tablespoons water 1 ½ tablespoon sugar ¾ teaspoon salt 320g (11 oz, literally 2 scant rounded cups) all-purpose flour
This is a super simple cake recipe to do. Best part again is flexibility with what fruit or berries you have available at the moment or are shopping for. In my case, we eat a ton of apples so we always have apples in the fruit bowl. I'm using Ambrosia apples for this recipe, but [...]
Here’s a great Breakfast Muffin recipe. I like it because it has some whole wheat flour in it, and, the choice of flavorings can be anything you have in your pantry. I added a handful of dried coconut, dried blueberries and currants, as well as almond slices. I also made them in a mini muffin [...]
In these stressful times we tend to gravitate to what brings us comfort. In my case it is spending enormous amounts of time looking for delicious recipes to cook or bake. Not all the recipes I look at I spend time with. Some recipes I may never try either because there isn’t flexibility in ingredients [...]
With the unbelievably tasty - and my new favorite condiment - Spicy Chili Crisp, and also with some Hummus and Thai basil garnish. Decorated for the picture with curry leaves and sesame seeds. Here is a fun recipe to try this weekend, especially if you are having company (within the guidelines of course) [...]
I think just about everyone has finally been able to get all purpose flour by now. If you were one of the few that bought a bag of whole wheat flour and didn't know what to do with it not that the all-purpose is available, here is a recipe for you. I have various types [...]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I love salmon! One of my favorite fish to cook and eat! So tasty, it’s really hard to screw it up and there are so many ways to cook it - baked, broiled, pan fried, bbq (among others) and of course, my favorite - poached! [...]
Ridiculous!! This is a feel good treat. I categorized it as "Pantry Staples" because you can use really any type of fruit you have in the kitchen. The aroma while it bakes in the oven - the cinnamon and brown sugar topping - is what sells homes. So if you are a real estate agent, [...]
In my “Some Like it Hot” cooking class, I made a Mango Jalapeno Cheesecake - yes everyone loved it. Candied jalapenos, fresh (or canned if fresh ripe mangos are not available) mango puree, cream cheese and a biscuit crust. Well I’m using that as inspiration for these cookies. Only this time, I’m using habaneros (scotch [...]
