• Kalamata Olive Garlic Bread

    This is a guest post from For The Love of Cooking. I wanted to make a loaf of garlic bread to serve alongside the Whole Wheat Spaghetti with Slow Simmered Meat Sauce and the Avocado and Butter Leaf Lettuce Salad with a Tangy Mustard Vinaigrette. Instead of using a regular loaf of French bread, I…
  • Pizza And Bread

    This is a guest post by Thibeault's Table. I'm trying to get back again to baking all the bread we eat. Earlier this week I kneaded up another batch of dough, started with a biga. I baked four baguettes and then the remaining dough went into the fridge for two days. I took the dough out of the…
  • How Do You Customize Your Grilled Cheese?

    National grilled cheese day passed on April 12th. I completely forgot the holiday. I should have made a special grilled cheese lunch. Even though the special day came and left, and I forgot, it doesn't mean we can't celebrate now. Who doesn't like grilled cheese? It's composed of butter, bread, and…
  • That’s not a biscuit, that’s a battle station!

    Which is something along the lines of what my wife would describe every attempt at that familiar southern delicacy. Yet today is not a tale of why she pretty much won’t try to make them anymore, but every bit of this latest food review at one point involves a trip to my favorite culinary dest…
  • Photo Dump, 4 April 2012

    On Tuesday, after my German lesson, I decided to take a whole bunch of random photos of myself.

Very nice…

  • Homemade Rosemary Bread

    I could not get the tasty rosemary bread from MacGrills out of my head, so I felt inspired to make one of my own. Results were great: it was crispy outside, fluffy inside, and aromatic with fresh rosemary and hints of lemon zest. My family and I finished it up all too quickly.
  • Beer Bread Recipe

    At almost every family party one of my sisters brings homemade beer bread. Before the main course is served everyone crowds around the beer bread and munches away. My family loves beer bread. Whoever brings it always has two loaves on hand. I have a big family and we can eat. I'm not entirely…
  • Frisco's Best Bakery

    To call an establishment my favorite bakery in the world is quite a statement, I know, but believe me, I am not exaggerating. I have been to an obscene number of bakeries throughout my life and this one tops them all. While I do have a favorite American Bakery, French Bakery, etc, Tartine Bakery &am…
