Baby Got Bundt
It began as a simple craving. I really wanted an angel food cake with fresh whipped cream and strawberries. But, of course, I didn’t have any strawberries in the house. And I’d just gone shopping. And it was pouring out. And I was busy doing other things.
Obviously, I wasn’t going anywhere.
Gobi Paratha Made Easy
Munching away on a delicious chai paratha a little while ago, of course my fingers did what they often do and went Googling for recipes. I had a pretty good idea of how to go about making a chai paratha, as I’ve made paratha plenty of times before…but was curious to see what other people had to say. I like to compare, and always have done; as I’ve said before, you can take the girl out of the academic research library, but you can’t take the academic research library out of the girl.
I’m digressing, however. In the travels of my fingers, I found Nags’ fantastic Gobi Paratha recipe over on her food blog, Edible Garden. I’ve of course enjoyed gobi paratha many times before…but never actually made them myself. The way she does it vs. how you’d normally do it makes so much sense. I’m definitely going to try this, and soon. If it weren’t for the fact that I’ve already got plans for khanom paeng na moo this evening, I’d be all over it immediately—I’ve even got fresh coriander in the fridge downstairs.
Or, as it’s known in our house, Moolantro.
Sweetness and Light
If you’ve ever wondered what makes me stare at my monitor, on point of weeping from the beauty and trying desperately not to drool on my keyboard, that would be this recipe for dulce de leche that Jennie recently posted over at Straight from the Farm.
I HAVE to try this. Possibly this weekend. All I need’s the milk, I’ve got everything else including jars.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, it’s time to make the bread.
