Portuguese Custard Tarts - Pasteis de Nata

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2009

I would have given 5 stars but the recipe did not give the temperature for cooking the custard. Also didn't say to remove the custard from the heat after you cook it for 5 minutes.The custard will burn quickly after the 5 minutes. Great tasking custard tart. Made it twice already.To save time I used the packaged frozen tart shells.

Restaurant-Style Coleslaw I

Reviewed: Aug. 20, 2009

Perfect sweet creamy coleslaw. It tastes best after it sits for 1 hour in fridge. I noticed the next day the leftover coleslaw had to be drained it was watery. I have made this coleslaw three days in a row and I still love it. The recipe is so easy and can be adjusted to suite eveyone's taste.Less sugar or 2% milk it doesn't matter it still tastes great.

English Butter Tarts

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2008

tastes great. This was a very easy recipe to follow. I cooked them for exactly 12 minutes. I used Crisco golden shortening which to me looks like butter.The tart shells were 3 inches not 2 inches. Only sold 3 inch shells at the store. The tarts were a little runny.

Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2008

Delicious and moist muffins. I used 3 very large bananas which equaled to 2 cups of mashed bananas. I followed the recipe and used butter NOT oil as others have. The muffins took 26 minutes to cook.The recipe made 12 large muffins. Delicous!!

Reviewed: Feb. 10, 2008

delicious spicy soup.I added the spices slowly. Starting with 1/4 tsp of spices and went up to 1 tsp. That worked for me. I used 1 cup of chicken broth not 6. I am keeping this recipe.

Beef Stew VI

Reviewed: Jan. 22, 2008

Delicious stew!! I loved it. I did not use the corn starch because I let it simmer for a total of 3 hours. The stew was thick and tasty. Since I did not have parsley or rosemary I threw in a Bay leaf. BUT the 4 beef cubes made the soup too salty so next time I will put in low sodium beef cubes.
