Where do I begin? I’m looking at it right now… my last post dates from February 9, 2020, and it is almost September now. I’ve never been the most prolific blogger but a break this long is unusual. I kinda want to blame the pandemic but that would be just an excuse because what better […]
No Knead Bread Redux!
You might remember 2 years ago when I posted my first no-knead bread article. I was happy-ish with the result but the bread wasn’t as airy as I would have hoped even though I had done everything right… or had I? Wanna get more sous-vide cooking guides and cool cooking how-to’s in your mailbox? You know what […]
Steamed Miso Milk Buns
Let me say hi first. It’s been a while since I last added an entry on my blog. I have been bogged down by a recent leg injury that limited my mobility a bit. Still bothers me. It will most likely require surgery according to one of the 5 doctors I saw. It’s a minor procedure […]
a simple ratatouille tart
I’m one of the worst food blogger out there. I abandon my site constantly. Neglect it for extended periods of time and when I do post I have typos and writing mistakes everywhere. I rarely provide photos of the process. I can’t stay focused on the subject in question and find it extremely hard to provide […]
no-knead bread.
You will be able to find many variations of this bread on the internet but the idea behind it is the same. Skipping the kneading part. No-knead bread requires 12 hours to make…yes, that’s the catch. Takes a little planning but zero physical effort other than moving some bowls from one place to another […]
Savory Galette. Beef + Peppers + Leeks
Finally back with some decent time to do some cooking, take some pics and blog it all! (sadly the rest of the year will be pretty inconsistent blogging wise) Told my friends I’d be making ratatouille for dinner this weekend. I also told them I would be baking it in a flaky quick puff pastry crust. Side […]
Cinnamon Rolls
I don’t eat a lot of baked stuff but I love baking stuff. And if I had to choose what my favorite baked thing is, cinnamon rolls would go at the top of my list, well above croissants or … don’t hate me.. donuts… Palmiers are my all time favorite along with french bread, […]
Chocolate Chip Cookies : Hershey’s Milk Chocolate
It’s finally happened. I caved and made cookies. First time, so I figured I’d document the whole thing with some pics and some notes. It’s been so long since I baked anything and the summer heat is approaching fast, so might as well get some baking done before the sun takes care of baking the […]
Pear Butter Coffee Cakes
1 hour till midnight on a sunday night. Another monday ahead. 4 more left till this year is over, including tomorrow. Hope you’re doing well. Hope you’re looking forward to the beginning of the work week because I am certainly not. Ok, I give up, I’ve been trying to write this intro paragraph for the […]
A Simple Bosc Pear Tart
This tart was part of my Thanksgiving dinner plan, in fact, this tart was the conclusion of the Thanksgiving dinner, so it had to be good! and tons of planning went into it, but plans, usually mine, don’t always go as expected. I should have prepped the tart a couple of days in advance, throw […]
