Angel Food Cake

If you are left with extra egg whites after making a custard or a creme pie, Angel Food Cake can come to your rescue, but since it contains about 11 egg whites, you’ll likely then have to make more custard! There could be worse things…

Blue Cheese Salad Dressing

I have experimented with different bases for this dressing: Mayonnaise, whole milk, heavy cream, sour cream, buttermilk, and varying combinations of these, and have decided I prefer a combination of sour cream and olive oil. I wanted a blue cheese dressing that complemented the flavor of the blue cheese without competing with it and I […]

Gin Fizz

This is a refreshing cocktail for a summertime party and is festive enough for a holiday gathering. I tend to make this most often in January and February during the peak of our lemon season. If you find yourself with an extra egg white, a Gin Fizz is a fine use for it!

Spaetzle

When we have Spaetzle for dinner, I am asked every time why I don’t make this more often, and given how easy it is, I’m really not sure!

Creamy Tomato Soup

This is my idea of the quintessential creamy tomato soup. If you use sweet, fresh, dry-farmed early girls, you’ll find the resulting soup to be balanced and delicious before you even add the cream. If your tomatoes are more acidic, the cream will help balance the acidity as will a little extra salt.

Spiced Molasses Cookies

Chicken Brine

Whether you plan to roast a whole chicken, bake or fry it in pieces, or deep-fry some chicken wings, brining is a worthwhile step when preparing chicken. You can vary the seasonings to your taste and omit the honey if you like. The most important operative ingredient here is the salt. Like in most recipes, […]

Chocolate Buttercream Frosting

This chocolate buttercream is rich, chocolatey, and not too sweet. Use a 1M cake decorating tip to make fun chocolate cupcakes or smoothly spread on a chocolate layer cake for a classy celebration.
