Ironic
Finally, a wheaty sandwich loaf that satisfies the entire family's requirements for flavor, texture, and nutrition, all on an adaptable timeline!
Bananagrahams
Banana graham crackers, homemade marshmallows, and dark chocolate = an equation for everything from oatmeal to bread pudding!
Povitica
The October 2011 Daring Bakers challenge was an unusual filled holiday bread called povitica; I made two gorgeous loaves filled with apples, walnuts and cinnamon.
I Love It When a Plan Comes Together
In celebration of spring and resurrection--fiddlehead fern quiche with ramps and blueberry betty nests with banana custard.
Leftover Night, Volume III: Carnivore Edition
Four different meat-centric meals, covering all the bases: beef brisket, crumb-coated pork, roasted chicken, and lamb shanks braised with lentils and curry.
How the Grinch Stollen Christmas
The December 2010 Daring Bakers challenge was stollen, a traditional German Christmas bread. Mine contained dried cherries, pistachios, and candied ginger, and was shaped into two different varieties of wreaths.
Thanksgiving Recap 2010
A recap of our Thanksgiving dinner from top to tail: turkey with prosciutto-hazelnut butter and all the fixings.
Brioche Swirls
Whole grain brioche dough baked two ways: a simple cinnamon swirl and a slightly more elaborate streusel-topped apple swirl. A nice change of pace from muffins for breakfast!
Into the Mist
Several applications for pork braised in apple cider and molasses until meltingly tender: Simply served over crisp squash risotto cakes aside cider-glazed Brussels sprouts, or stuffed into a sandwich with sauerkraut coleslaw along twice-baked sweet…
Spinach Balls
A crowd-pleaser from my childhood: baked balls of stuffing mixed with onion, spinach and melty cheese.
Check That One Off the List
Barbecue beef sandwiches with my homemade sauce and sandwich rolls, and coleslaw with a dressing made from homemade mayonnaise and yogurt---self-sufficiency can be a beautiful thing.
Bagel Kisses
Expanding my sourdough repertoire to bagels, made with all-purpose flour fortified with vital wheat gluten.
Bread Alone
The quintessential sourdough loaf (which I am hoping will come to taste more sour as my starter matures!).
English Muffins for Oscar
Homemade English muffins that are every bit as good as store-bought, if not better!
Midsummer Feast
A simple roast of beef with sides of summery vegetables and pesto-infused mashers, remixed into roast beef sandwiches on soft, homemade potato rolls.
Tidbits
Some notes on miscellaneous recipes from recent weeks: cherry-frangipane tart, arugula and garlic scape pestos, whole wheat hearth bread, tuna melts, and a twist on spaghetti and meatballs.
Breakfast (Radishes) for Dinner
Using all parts of the radish: Raw for snacking, greens for soup, and even shredded into focaccia bread. Also a white bean-Caesar flatbread with prosciutto and arugula.
Adventures in Skillet Focaccia
My attempts to cook focaccia bread successfully on the stove-top.
