Wow! I've been using a recipe EXACTLY like this for the past 6 years!!! I also use the same recipe to make mini-pies to pass out as thank you treats to teachers & friends around thanksgiving. Everyone raves about it. If the pie is jiggly /runny, cover the pie with foil and let it bake longer. The bourbon flavor mellows out, and makes this pie even better the next day.

Ethiopian Cabbage Dish

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2009

I'm from Eritrea & my mother grew up in Ethiopia. This is the most accurate & authentic recipe I've found. As other reviewers suggested, I doubled the spice & reduced the oil as well. FYI - Ethiopians use a lot of oil b/c most don't have non stick pans so they're in the habit of poring on the oil.

Fresh Mint and Cilantro Melon Salad

Reviewed: Sep. 18, 2009

I was so sceptical - I only tried this recipe to use up the mint in our garden & the not so ripe honeydew. I tasted the fruit each time I added the mint & then the cilantro. Wondeful! the only subsituted honey for the sugar, and used cantelope & watermelon along w/ the honeydew to add color. Thanks for the recipe - this is a definite KEEPER!

Blueberry Scones

Reviewed: Aug. 20, 2008

Wow! I just made these scones and they came out perfect. The dough was definetly sticky, but I took another reviewers' attitude and ignored the stickiness. It came out great. I did use white sugar instead of brown sugar and added 2 extra tablespoons of sugar. I subsituted 1 of 2 cups of flour with Whole Wheat flour just to make it a little healthier and the still came out light. This is a keeper.

Sunday Dinner Rolls

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2007

Talk about the easiest recipe! No kneading and the rolls came out soooo wonderfully soft! The only thing is that it was a bit sweet for me, so I'm going to cut the sugar in half next time. This one is a keeper!

Easy Pancakes

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2006

This is the best and easiest pancake recipe. I've made 3 times already. I added ripe bananas and reduced the milk for 3/4 cups for a wonderful banana pancake that my hubby & 1 year old just wolfed down. Thanks!

Ethiopian Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2005

This is definetly NOT Ethiopian chicken. Being of Ethiopian descent I was wandering how the ingredients were going to come out having an Ethiopian flavor... well it didn't. So if you're looking for Ethiopian this isn't it. The soy sauce should have been a dead give-away. As for the taste of the dish itself, I thought it bland as well.
