Nacho Burgers

Posted by Sheri on Saturday, April 21st, 2012 · Comments (0)

We tried a different vendor for ground beef from the farmer’s market this week – Full of Life Farm. We usually buy our pork from them, but we love the beef rom Moon Meadow. After having these burgers, I’d say Full of Life is a close second – I still like Moon Meadow better. The [...]

Linguine with Cacio e Pepe

Posted by Sheri on Friday, April 20th, 2012 · Comments (1)

I’ve given up caring that the pasta dough from Ad Hoc uses 14 egg yolks. I love it. It’s so easy to make, delicious, and I love kneading it until it transforms from a shaggy mess to a silky ball of dough. Plus there’s no fear of kneading it too much – it should be [...]

Skillet Potatoes and Eggs

Posted by Sheri on Thursday, April 19th, 2012 · Comments (0)

This is a quick breakfast or even breakfast-for-dinner recipe. Less of a recipe than a blueprint – spices, cheese and herbs can be changed up to suit whatever flavor you’re craving. I used smoked paprika and manchego cheese in my version for this scramble – no herbs. And I used fingerling potatoes instead of red, [...]

The Milkiest Chocolate Ice Cream in the World

Posted by Sheri on Wednesday, April 18th, 2012 · Comments (1)

Back to Jeni’s ice cream – I like the method and the silky texture of the ice creams out of this book. I also like that there isn’t any need to strain the base. What I don’t like is that it doesn’t use any egg yolks – sometimes I have leftover yolks and need to [...]

Ultimate Brown Butter Stovetop Popcorn

Posted by Sheri on Tuesday, April 17th, 2012 · Comments (1)

This is a genius method for making popcorn. It’s easy, it’s fast, and it’s way better than microwave popcorn. I’d love to say this was all my idea, but I got it from Ryan over at The Spinning Cook. His post went up last September, and I don’t know why I didn’t make this sooner. [...]

Vanilla-Caramel Angel Food Cupcakes

Posted by Sheri on Monday, April 16th, 2012 · Comments (1)

This month’s Bake Together is angel food cake! One thing I love about angel food cake is that it uses only egg whites – I’ve usually got an abundance because of all the ice cream, lemon curd and pasta I tend to make. Larry and I brainstormed over this cake. I could have gone the [...]

Maple-Banana Bread Pudding

Posted by Sheri on Sunday, April 15th, 2012 · Comments (0)

Considering my love of all things custard, I’m surprised I don’t like bread pudding. It’s rare that I taste one that I really like. I don’t know what it is, maybe that it’s essentially just soggy bread? I don’t like French toast either, so I suppose it makes sense. This bread pudding came about because [...]

Barbecued Tempeh Sandwich

Posted by Sheri on Saturday, April 14th, 2012 · Comments (2)

This is a simple dish, just sliced tempeh baked in a homemade barbecue-type sauce. The tempeh soaks up the sauce and gets nice and brown in the oven. It’s good on its own, or in a sandwich – we like it just on bread with avocado, or in a wrap with avocado. The point is, [...]

Caramel Apple Cake

Posted by Sheri on Friday, April 13th, 2012 · Comments (7)

This cake was on the Baked Sunday Mornings schedule a while ago but I didn’t make it. It’s the only week I’ve missed the bake-along for the group, so like the type-A that I am, I was compelled to make it up. I was really tempted to make cupcakes like several in the group did, [...]

Smoky Tomato-Bacon Soup

Posted by Sheri on Thursday, April 12th, 2012 · Comments (0)

Some people celebrated Easter or Passover this past week. But today is our holiday, National Grilled Cheese Day. And it was a great day for it too – windy, cold and stormy. There isn’t anything particularly special about making the sandwiches – a liberal coating of salty butter (Kerrygold, to be specific – it’s very [...]
