Classic Gingerbread Cutouts

Reviewed: Oct. 30, 2009
This made an incredibly fragrant Halloween gingerbread house. I let the larger pieces bake a little longer, then let them sit in a 200 degree oven until they felt very firm. This was my first gingerbread house from scratch and I'm very happy with the results. Thanks for the recipe.

Plum Clafouti

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
Easy to make and fun to say. What's not to love about clafouti? It comes in somewhere between a custard and a pie and you can make it with cherries, plums, peaches, figs...whatever is fresh. I wonder how it would work with apples or pears this fall? Let's find out!

Lavender Tea Bread

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2009
Fragrant, lovely, slightly dense tea bread. I made it with fresh lavender from my garden, which added another reason to enjoy this recipe. The next time I make this, I'll reduce the amount of lavender to 2 tablespoons because it is possible to have too much of a good thing. I also glazed my loaf with confectioners' sugar mixed with freshly squeezed lime juice. Heavenly.

Rhubarb Cake I

Reviewed: Jun. 29, 2009
A cake so delicious I made it twice in one day. The second time around I cut the sugar back to 1 cup so the rhubarb flavor would come through. Very nice. My son wanted to eat it before dinner was ready. He got one bite. I'm the pushover mom of the year.

Chutney with Mint

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2009
I needed to find a way to use up the mint that's taking over my garden, and while this put only a tiny dent in the crop, it was so delicious I'll make it again and again. I served it with curried chicken kabobs one night, grilled shrimp another night, and as a flavor agent on potroast sandwiches. It's amazing, versatile stuff. Thanks for the recipe!

Minnesota Broccoli Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2009
Here's how much my family liked this salad. My son didn't touch the portion on his plate until I urged him to have a bite. So he did. "Oh," he said after his first bite. "OH!" he said after his second bite. "This is really good!" he said, as he shoveled broccoli salad into his mouth. "Can I have some more?" he said. My husband ate two helpings of salad and said things like, "So is this the official Minnesota State Dish?" So yes, this is a winner. Thanks for the recipe!

Veronica's Apple Pancakes

Reviewed: Feb. 23, 2009
Wonderful pancakes! Here's my tweak: I tossed finely chopped apple with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar while I prepped the rest of the batter (I added a pinch of salt to the dry ingredients). Then I folded the cinnamon apples into the batter. Cold leftover pancakes made a great after-school snack today because the apples made the pancakes moist and tasty even without butter and syrup. Yeah, baby!

Curried Butternut Squash and Pear Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2009
A combination of flavors so deliciously right it makes me crazy to think I've lived this long without experiencing it before now. Better late than never. Thank you for this beautiful, beautiful soup!

Knudson's Knasty Habit

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2008
Knothing knasty about it. This pleasing little cocktail was tart and refreshing, sort of like Lorem himself. Knudson seemed to enjoy it, too.

Perfect Pear Brandy Sidecar

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2008
This smoothed the jagged edge off a particularly rough week and restored a sense of general benevolence. Now if only it counted towards my goal of five fruit and veg per day. *Sigh*

Basque Salad

This smelled great, looked beautiful, and tasted fantastic. The sweetness of the peppers and the acid of the vinegar were balanced beautifully. This is a keeper.

Melon Trio with Sherry and Mint

Reviewed: Sep. 21, 2007
So refreshing! I loved the little hits of mint with the fruit. It was beautiful to look at and the sherry elevated the flavor to something very, very special indeed. I would definitely have this again.

Chimichurri Sauce for Steaks

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2007
From now on, everything I eat will have a dab of this chimichurri sauce on it. Even ice cream. I kid. No, seriously. I just had it on grilled shrimp. Just now. Sorry - none left for you. But it was oh my god good. Make some and you'll see what I'm talking about.
