Curd is the word
January 27, 2021 by Darcie
Early on in the pandemic I started stocking up on food in case panic buying hit another frenzy. The trouble is, I didn't do a great job of inventory management or organization which led to some redundant purchases, including an abundance of lemons. While citrus fruits do keep well, there are limits on how long they will last. (If you… read more

Great British Bake Off – Recap – Week 6 – Japanese
November 1, 2020 by Jenny
For the first time ever, it was Japanese week in the white tent. I enjoyed the feeling of the tent this week but wondered why they didn't elaborate more on the exquisite pastry culture of Japan.

Fresh isn’t always best
September 26, 2020 by Darcie
I always have at least one bulb of garlic in the pantry, usually more. I also grow herbs like parsley, basil, dill, and thyme. For most recipes, using the fresh version of these items is the best way to go, but that is not true in all cases. Sometimes dried spices and herbs work better, and that is the case… read more

An ode to the cutlet
August 23, 2020 by Darcie
What can perk up a boring chicken breast, accommodate almost any type of meat, and even make a bland vegetable the star of the show?

Whether you… read more
