Shortbread Cookies Recipe & Video - Joyofbaking.com *Tested Recipes*

http://www.joyofbaking.com/shortbreads/shortbreadcookies.html Shortbreads are one of my favorite cookies. Scottish in origin, this rich, tender and crumbly straw colored biscuit (cookie) was once only served during Christmas and New Year's Eve (Hogmanay). In its most basic form, shortbreads are made with just four ingredients, butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and flour . While today they are made in various shapes and sizes, at one time the dough was baked in a round mold and then cut into wedges that were given the name "petticoat tails". This name refers to the shape of the shortbread wedges which was similar to the bell-hoop petticoats worn by court ladies in the 12th century .

Taste Test: Chips and Salsa | Shine Food

Chips and salsa are an essential dynamic duo, and Cinco de Mayo is their big holiday, so we tasted 31 brands of store-bought tortilla chips and 20 store-bought brands of salsa. The best tortilla chip should have a good corn flavor and a slight saltiness. It must be sturdy and crunchy, not oily and dense. The perfect chip should be crispy and have a firm snap when you bite into it; it should not drape like a soft tortilla. Lastly, it should have a sensible shape, built for scooping salsa, guacamole, and dip.
