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

Bowl o’ Rolls
Monday night I made some calzone using a new-to-me bread recipe. The bread was great, but I made a rookie’s mistake and forgot to grease the pan. I just put down some cornmeal on the insulated air bake pan. They … Continue reading
