Garlic Mashed Potatoes Secret Recipe
About this Cook
I've been cooking professionally since I was 19, and love trying out new techniques and flavors.
My favorite things to cook
Breads, homemade tortillas, lasagnas, desserts, potat klub, just about everything.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Homemade cookies, and some Scandinavian dishes.
My cooking triumphs
Getting a meal put together without interference from my toddler constitutes a triumph to me...so I guess I have a few of those a week!
My cooking tragedies
Well, there was the time with the Thai noodles and the spring rolls...I will never use that much fish sauce again, in an entire lifetime!

Browned Butter Icing
Thank you so very, very much for posting this recipe! My grandmother used to use this for her spicecakes, and I *know* that this has to be what she iced them with- have never found a recipe for it before! Merry Christmas, you have made my holiday season!!! :D

Lunch Box Hot Hot Dogs
My mom had a twist on this- she would pack the hot dog in boiling-hot chicken noodle soup! Worked a treat, and on a cold winter school day, it was a joy to find in my lunch box. Thanks, Lorrie, for the reminder- my kids will appreciate this! :o)

Tangy (Not Sweet) Tartar Sauce
Right on, SKANDREWS! The tartar sauce of my youth, in WA state, was NEVER a sweet-pickle sauce- it was always dilly. This is almost exactly the same recipe I use- will try it your way soon! Thanks so much for sticking up for the "savory" side! :o)
