This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is img_1771.jpgI 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 →

Apple Fritter Bread

01 Thursday Oct 2020

all-purpose flour, apple cider, apples, arrowroot, brown sugar, butter, dry milk powder, eggs, instant yeast, lemon juice, powdered sugar, Spices, sugar

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!

Everyday Cinnamon Rolls

18 Friday Sep 2020

Posted by The Gourmet Goddess in cinnamon rolls

≈ Leave a comment

Tags

all-purpose flour, brown sugar, butter, dry powdered milk, eggs, instant yeast, kosher salt, Spices, sugar, water

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!

butter, dry powdered milk, egg, instant yeast, kosher salt, sugar, water, white flour

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 →

Spiced Peach-Nectarine Pie

05 Saturday Sep 2020

Posted by The Gourmet Goddess in nectarines, Peaches, Pie

Tags

arrowroot, butter, heavy cream coarse sugar, lemon juice, nectarine, peach schnapps, Peaches, Spices, sugar

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 →

all-purpose flour, baking powder, butter, egg, lemon juice, powdered sugar, Strawberries, strawberry-flavored gelatin, sugar

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 →
