NOLA Boy Meets Ciabatta Bread

Three Equals Twelve (3=12)
NOLA Boy is a mathematician, so my title here caused a bit of a stir. I’m sure with the addition of enough little squigglies in my equation, he could make three into twelve, but I did it the easy way. … Continue reading

Egg Bites – Not Starbucks
I guess I’m the last person in the world to discover that Starbucks serves a breakfast-on-the-way-to-work dish that is taking the country by storm. From what I read, they are prepared sous vide and then reheated at the time of … Continue reading

Fun with Egg Wash
Sometimes the obvious escapes me; and other times it shines like a bright star! Last night I made Judie McNuggets, although they are really lightly breaded, hearty strips of boneless, skinless chicken breasts rather than smallish bits and pieces of … Continue reading

Breakfast al Fresco
We have been having an extraordinarily lovely summer, thus have spent some mealtimes on the deck. Most notably – the famous “Pre-breakfast Breakfast” feast! Not sure why the pancakes look so dark; weren’t that way in real life. The cooked … Continue reading

Olive Omelette
On the inside were mushrooms, onions, and extra sharp Cheddar cheese. It was a good thing that I had my iPhone at the ready, because this baby disappeared right before my very eyes. The one-week report on the cataract surgery … Continue reading

The Twenty-Five Cent Breakfast
Hard to believe, I know, but twenty-five cents may be more than the actual cost. The eggs were $.99 a dozen (so sixteen cents for two); a couple of leftover Tater Tots, and the last two inches of a loaf … Continue reading

Les Restes du Jour (The Remains of the Day)
There were no leftover blueberry pancakes for NOLA Boy’s pre-breakfast snack this morning, so I quickly made up some fresh French Toast – Pain Perdu. I guess the name of the dish and “fresh” are rather at odds with one … Continue reading

Homemade Buttermilk
Homemade Buttermilk gives a huge flavor boost to pancakes. These have dried cranberries and sliced almonds and went down real easy. I was shocked to find that commercial buttermilk is the same price as half and half., i.e. … Continue reading

Versatility, thy name is “egg”. When I am busy with a lot of other dishes on Sundays’ special brunches, I sometimes just steam fry the eggs. When you think about it, all methods that keep the egg whole produce something … Continue reading
