Adventures in cooking and baking.
This half-baked chocolate cake, or Gâteau au Chocolat Mi-Cuit, just oozes delicious gooey chocolate when you cut it open.
If you're familiar with those little individual molten chocolate cakes, also known as lava cakes, that were all the rage a few years ago, just know that this cake takes the concept to another level.
This fried sweet rice with sausages and shiitake mushrooms is so easy to make and totally tasty.
This fried rice recipe is different than most because it calls for sweet rice (or sticky rice), which is a short grain rice higher in starch, or amylopectin (fancy name for a plant starch).
This Lebanese Morning Bread is a tasty pita-style sourdough bread made with three kinds of flour: all-purpose, whole wheat, and corn meal.
The combination of whole wheat, corn meal, and all purpose flour, along with the sourdough starter, adds so much texture and flavor to this bread.
A thick slice of this apple babka will remind you of both apple pie and cinnamon rolls.
This apple babka is filled with a mixture of grated apple, pecan meal, sugar, and spices. It's kind of like if apple pie and cinnamon rolls got married, this babka would be the happy result.
This is my favorite recipe for chunky guacamole. It's easy, flexible, and totally flavorful.
This guacamole is fabulous with tortilla chips and a margarita or bloody Mary for a summer al fresco dinner party appetizer, or for serving while tailgating during the fall.
This honey oatmeal sandwich bread is deliciously soft and squishy and so easy to make.
This honey oat bread is great for sandwiches, including BLTs, tuna melts, grilled cheese, and especially peanut butter and jam.
These apple soy glazed chicken legs are deliciously crispy, juicy, and sticky. You'll be licking the sauce off of your fingers.
When you want an easy but succulent chicken dish, make this apple soy chicken. It's both sweet and savory, and tastes wonderful.
