caramel sauce, Challah, chocolate chips, cream, eggs, salt, sugar, vanilla extract, whole milk

This is different from the bread pudding I usually make.  It’s less dense and while it’s custardy, it isn’t overly custardy.  Does that make any sense at all?  Quite awhile back, when we could still dine out, The Goddess brunched at Rouge, in Philadelphia.  This is her version of their fantastic bread pudding.  Continue reading →

Grilled Cod with Swiss Cheese and Ham-Shiitake Mushroom Cream Sauce

The recipe title is quite a mouth-full, isn’t it?  We enjoyed this wonderful dish, at a dinner party in Puerto Rico, over 25 years ago.  From the first bite, I was completely smitten with the flavor and the texture.  It was creamy, salty, all gooey with cheese and truly delicious.  It was about the best fish I had ever eaten.  The hostess told me she would gladly give me the recipe. I don’t think she wanted to share the recipe, but I was bulldog-tenacious and wouldn’t give up.  I begged and begged her for months, until we were down to pretty much the day before we were leaving the island, when she finally relented.  Sometimes Goddess’s have to be persistent.  Continue reading →

179Thomas Jefferson (or “Tee-Jay”, his lesser known rapper name), from his travels in Europe, brought the Colonies the lovely flavor of tarragon. He was a Francophile in the largest sense; if it was French, it was good…and tarragon is very good, indeed.

198I love leftovers.  I guess there are those that don’t and that’s okay, but I think they are missing out on the possibility of change.  I love change.  With leftovers, you can change the turkey that didn’t make into the mouths of hungry holiday diners, into something else, Continue reading →
