Chi Tan T'ang (Egg Drop Soup)

Reviewed: Nov. 14, 2009

Good, next time I'll cut back on the vinegar, as it was very prominent. I used rice wine vinegar, but I don't think that would have made a difference.

This one's definitely getting made again. Next time I will up the cream to 1.5 cups. Like so many others, I subbed coconut milk for cream and found the potatoes took a long time to cook, even cubed quite small. I ended up adding a little water to the pan and covered to sort of steam the potatoes and carrots.

Phenomenal Chicken and Pasta in Creamy Pesto Sauce

Reviewed: Jul. 28, 2009

It's a definite keeper - next time I'll put the pine nuts on top as a garnish rather than cooking them in - they got strangely mushy. I used 2% milk instead of cream and cooked the pasta to al dente before mixing it with the sauce, and I had no problems with the sauce thickening.

Fresh Rhubarb Bread Pudding

Reviewed: Jul. 27, 2009

I liked this, even though I'm not a huge bread pudding fan. If I make it again I'll cut back to 4 eggs - parts of it were a little too eggy for my tastes.

Curried Cauliflower

Reviewed: May 30, 2009

I'm not sure if I'll make this again or not - it was good, but not very special. I tasted the sauce as I went, and ended up using 5 teaspoons of curry powder. I also added salt and pepper once it was cooked - if I make this again I'll put those in the sauce. I wish I had stirred the sauce into the mix before baking - it didn't trickle down as well as I'd hoped. I added about a pound of carrots that were sitting around, and it still seemed like a lot of sauce - I could have added more veggies and been happy, or cut back on the amount of sauce.

Best Toffee Ever - Super Easy

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2008

Mine separated, I poured off the extra butter and the result was still incredible! Next time I'll try stirring less.

Savory Grilled Potatoes

Reviewed: May 22, 2008

These didn't blow my socks off. There wasn't anything wrong with them, just not that exciting. My fiance called them "very midwestern".

Rhubarb Muffins

Reviewed: May 22, 2008

Moist and easy, but not as much rhubarb flavor as I would have liked. Next time I'll try a different recipe.

Go Anywhere Rhubarb Squares

Reviewed: May 22, 2008

Tasty and easy. I'll be making this again. Note that the recipe calls for an 11x7 pan. To make in a 9x13, change the servings to 24. Someone else said that the crust seems to powdery but turns out ok, which was my experience, too.

T Bird's Beef Jerky

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2008

I make this to take camping, but if I make it too far in advance it all gets eaten before we leave the house! It's one of the best jerky recipes I've tried. I've started doubling the amount of hot sauce to give a little more kick.
