Loaded Croutons

Loaded Croutons

by perfectlittlebites | Jan 14, 2015 | Assorted, Baking, Cheese, chef, cook, Cooking, creativity, culinary, Food, Gardening, health, Nutrition, Photography, Recipe, vegetarian

A few weeks ago, I posed the question “Are loaded croutons a thing?”. I have already declared my love for croutons, and use The Crouton Test to assess a cook’s attention to detail. If I don’t want to eat handfuls of croutons by themselves, then...

Chinese Cabbage-Cured Egg Yolks

I’ve wanted to try this for a while, but hadn’t gotten around to it until now. I’ve posted a lot about the fantastic umami powders from RC Fine Foods, and thought they would work well in different cures. Cured egg yolks seemed like a natural place to start. This...

Sometimes it’s as easy as looking at the leftovers in your fridge. I had some dulce de leche from making pie, and an open bottle of blood orange ale from making beer cocktails. It was that easy. Knowing that I had a carton of vanilla ice cream/orange sherbet...

Creamed Southern Greens
