This simple, soft & chewy sugar cookie pairs beautifully with an espresso. I’ll be making a batch with almonds in the near future. These disappeared too fast. Soft Sugar Cookies makes 36-40 2 cups AP flour 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/2 cup extra-fine granulated sugar 1/4 […]
This dish should have a fine dusting of bottarga on top, but, I didn’t have any on hand… maybe next time. Fregula with Tuna serves 5-6 1 bag (500 g) Fregula Sarda 1 can (25 oz) DOP tomatoes, finely pureed in a food processor […]
So, I wanted to take a simple lemon bar recipe and make a few minor changes. Red grapefruit juice and zest fill in for lemon. One grapefruit provides more than enough juice. (If it’s a big & juicy one, you’ll only need half.) Then, I wanted to add flavor to […]
This wilted pea shoot salad makes a great base for a gently fried egg. It’s a perfect light meal for any time of the day. But, I particularly enjoy this as a light breakfast. Wilted Pea Shoot Salad 1 TBSP Olive oil 2 TBSP rice wine […]
A shocking amount of chocolate is needed to give this mug of hot chocolate the flavor you would expect, even using 82% extra-dark chocolate. But, I’ll happily give up dessert for this mug of liquid chocolate. It’s worth every sip. To gild the lily, I’ve added a super-sized jumbo marshmallow. […]
Buttermilk Pancakes with Sorrel Syrup Buttermilk Pancakes makes more than enough for 2 2 cups AP flour 3 Tbsp sugar 1 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 1 jumbo egg 2 cups buttermilk Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and stir vigorously […]
The flavors of a Pimento/Cheddar cheese spread work well in a traditional mac & cheese recipe. As a matter of fact, all of the added flavor from the roasted red peppers allowed me to use a smaller amount of cheese than I normally would. Pimento Cheddar Mac & […]
My goal was to create a slightly healthier breakfast treat by substituting oatmeal for most of the flour. The oatmeal created a very dense and moist bar that we both enjoyed. For me, the flavor is identical to a traditional crisp gingerbread man cookie. Considering how fast they are disappearing, […]
A small bowl of fresh strawberries and a cocktail of creamy vanilla and praline liqueur make a nice substitute for dessert on those occasions when you’d like a little something special. Creamy Vanilla & Praline Cocktail 1 ounce vanilla vodka 1/2 ounce praline liqueur one whole […]
My sweet & sarcastic husband: Aww… how pretty! Me: Taste it. (He takes a sip.) Him: Hmm… not bad. Me: Eat a blueberry. (He eats a berry.) Him: Mmm… Ok, I’d drink that. Violette 1 ounce vodka 1/2 […] |
