I haven’t cooked a veal breast in years. The last one I made was stuffed and it was good, but…. Well, let’s put it this way, it didn’t make my taste buds do cartwheels. This one, which is based on Jacques Pépin’s recipe, does! Continue reading

I was flying around the InterWebs and ran across a reference to Apple Fritter Bread, and I thought it sounded wonderful…but that one was a quick bread. I wanted a yeast bread and then I found one. So I took to my handy-dandy roll recipe and made a change here and there, so here we are! This dough is pillowy soft and somewhat sticky, but a dream to work with. I takes a bit longer for it to raise, because it’s both rich and sweet. You know, good things!

This is more or less the Everyday Bread recipe, but with additional butter, egg and sugar and using all-purpose flour. I decided to give you an actual recipe, rather than try to alter it…I did that, but even I found it confusing. Confusing is bad. Understanding is good…and it leads to much better results!

It seems that everyone is baking bread these pandemic days. Particularly sour dough, which The Goddess wandered into, when yeast was not so readily available. But, she’s returned to her roots…the bread you eat everyday! A good, basic loaf…. Continue reading

Fresh peach pie tends to disappoint me. It never seems to do justice to the flavor of a fresh, fabulous peach. It’s a bias I have, but I’m working on it. And that’s when I decided that maybe if I used part nectarines, I might be happier with the end result. Yes! Continue reading

This is one of THOSE sauces. The one you keep returning to. The one you keep tweaking until it’s perfect, and then you tweak it again. And no matter what, it is spectacularly delicious. Continue reading

Remember back when I posted Strawberry-Lemon Blondie Bars, I mentioned that I thought instead of strawberries, I wanted to use nectarines and blueberries. It was a good thought and it’s a wonderful combination. Continue reading

These just positively fly together…like about 5 minutes. It takes longer to dice up the strawberries than it does to actually make the recipe. Oh, so delicious…and easy, too! Continue reading

The Spicy Honey loves, loves, loves Bolognese sauce. And admittedly, I’ve never been particularly happy with my previous attempts. They were just ho-hum. This one…I’m very happy with, and I think you might be, too! Continue reading
