Stuffed Garlic Bread

Originally published on June 29, 2014 Along with potato skins and Buffalo wings, when my husband used to have poker nights, I always had this stuffed garlic bread on the menu – even though it was always all gone by the time I had a chance to sit and maybe swipe a slice for myself. Sadly, we’ve moved […]

Easy-Mix White Bread

Originally published on July 3, 2014 The other day, my Internet went down. I considered it disaster until I went to go make my usual Sourdough Bread and realized that I couldn’t come to the site to get the recipe. Then it turned catastrophic. I was about to have a go at it and just try […]

Crunchy Corn Flour Waffles

Originally published on July 6, 2014 Yesterday I talked about how, after a very long wait, I finally made polenta and it didn’t nearly fulfill my high expectations. Well, it’s a good thing you can do a lot more with corn flour than just make that. Of course cornbread entered my mind, but since it was morning and I […]

Peanut Butter

Originally published on July 8, 2014 Did you ever think you could make peanut butter that was better than what you bought at the store? Or perhaps even more so, did you ever think there was a need to make peanut butter at home? I never did, until one day when I made my summer rolls and needed my Thai peanut sauce to […]

Perfect Lamb Loin Chops

Originally published on July 10, 2014 Welcome, welcome, welcome to my very first post on lamb! Can you believe it?!? This blog has been kickin’ around for five years and I’m just now getting my first post up about lamb! I’m so excited about it, although there is a very good reason why it’s taken me this long – lamb is […]

Bruschetta

Originally published on July 11, 2014 Bruschetta is one of those things that is a favourite of most. What’s not to love about grilled bread, dripping with olive oil and tomatoes, with some fresh herbs sprinkled in? And while bruschetta really is a simple enough dish to pull together, there are a few things to remember if you want it […]

Parisian Scrambled Eggs

Originally published on July 12, 2014 Right now I’m reading My Life in France, by Julia Child. It’s a wonderfully funny and interesting book, and is somewhat familiar to me since it’s what the movie Julie and Julia is based on, and I’ve seen that about a kabillion times. In the book, Julia speaks about a Chef Bugnard that was […]

Perfect Scrambled Eggs

Originally published on July 13, 2014 Because I turned my nose up at the idea of Parisian scrambled eggs yesterday, I thought it only fair to bring you my version of perfect scrambled eggs today. These are small little mounds of eggs that are light and fluffy and, even have a little bit of onion in them (because I love an […]

Chicken Roulade

Originally published on July 14, 2014 Can I ask you what, exactly, is the difference between chicken roulade and chicken involtini? Before I started making this dish, I thought there was a big difference. But as I started making it, I couldn’t help but notice just how similar the two are. So what is the difference? As far as I […]

Dijon Breaded Pork Chops

Originally published on July 15, 2014 I love Michael Smith. He not only creates beautiful and tasty food, but he makes it accessible to everyone from other chefs, to the home cook that has just started cooking for their family. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him make these specific pork chops, but I did […]
