Rhubarb and strawberry empanada recipe

It’s probably pretty obvious that I like empanadas, and most of the time I make savory empanadas, but as a kid I obviously preferred the sweet empanadas stuffed with yummy fruit inside, so every now and then I want a sweet empanada either for dessert or breakfast or as an afternoon snack with some café con leche . I’m also trying to incorporate all the yummy things I get at the farmer’s market into my cooking, so while the original plan was to use strawberries as the filling when I saw the bright red stalks of rhubarb I had to add them, more out of curiosity because I have heard all about how strawberries and rhubarb make this great combination, but I have never tasted it before.

Princess cake demystified (prinsesstårta) | semiswede

http://semiswede.com/2011/09/21/princess-cake-demystified-prinsesstarta/ On my first trip to Sweden in 1998 I fell in love with prinsesstårta (PRIN-sess-TOHR-tuh). The spongy layers of cake alternating with jam, vanilla custard and whipped cream topped with a thin layer of bright green marzipan had me hooked from the first bite. But it wasn’t until recently that I really started to wonder about this cake and it’s origins. Is it Swedish? Why is it called princess cake? Why is it typically green and how is it made?
I hope you’re ready to see a billion underexposed photos of the same exact dough over and over and over again. Please say yes, because you will be rewarded with this. This was a… project. http://www.howsweeteats.com/2011/09/how-to-make-croissants-and-lose-your-mind-while-doing-it/

Dry vs Wet Caramel There’s 2 different kinds of basic caramel: a wet caramel, where sugar is melted with water then cooked, and a dry caramel, where sugar is cooked by itself until it liquefies and caramelizes.

Ok – I’ve found a new favorite ingredient at the store. They’ve probably existed for years, and I somehow missed them. But hey — they’re new to me. :) I’m talking about…. Mini-pepperonis!!!!

Pepperoni Pizza Puffs Recipe

If you ask me, Nutella should be considered one of the four main food groups. This chocolate-hazelnut spread has it all: healthy fat and protein from nuts , heart-healthy antioxidants from the dark chocolate , a touch of sweetness to fulfill that...um...sugar requirement...okay, so it's not quite ready for a starring role on the food pyramid. Who cares, when it tastes so good?

Banana Split Bites ~ A classic ice cream dessert gets mini for some bite size fun. And yes, there is actually a tiny scoop of ice cream tucked inside and underneath the whip cream of those little darlings. Banana Split Mini Bites For once I made something mini for portion control and not just for the cute factor.
I have recently completed a consulting job with Poulet , deli/restaurant with a humble, kitchy interior. Started by Marilyn Rinzler and the infamous Bruce Aidells , Poulet has stood in the same spot since 1979! With the hopes of providing honest, healthful food, with a chicken slant, it is still owned by Ms. Rinzler and manages to makes heaps more food than the diminutive kitchen implies. A family friend, Ms. Rinzler asked me one day last Spring if I could look at some of their baked good recipes and help her out with advice and suggestions.
