‘Thought a run through some recipe sites, before I got serious here, might get my creativity blooming. Oh my, yes.
Found a yummy bread site, the author is obviously totally steeped in food and all its myriad of joys. My best cooking hours involve flour – of some kind (noodles, bread, etc), so I drooled as I surfed ; enjoy. http://betterwithbutter.com/bread-week-day-4-challah/
Curiosity took me to this next site. Being…over 30, I was taught to knead bread doughs till they howled. So this new method intrigues me. Any one used this no-knead method? Would Love to hear your results.

Okay, you’re in a hurry, kids coming through the back door, hubby just called – traffic’s not too bad – he’ll be waltzing in within the hour. The soup in the crock pot is way ready and your quickest bread recipe takes 2 hours! Time to try a ‘quick bread’ recipe. Here’s a site that makes this food route look quick and easy. Confession time; I have never created a quick bread! Been down the muffin road, maybe it’s not too different? Any food fans out there with some experience in this area, please let us know your results.

A flour recipe trip must include at least a quick peek at pies. The chef on this video below is easy to understand. I may spend a few minutes there myself ( my first pie crust , many moons ago, could have doubled as a blunt-trauma weapon, I’m embarrassed to admit).

Life is simply not life – without a perfect Pasta recipe! (notice the capital P..). Did I mention I’m Italian. Anyway, here’s a site that uses a Pasta cutter. As our blog progresses, I’ll post a completely from-scratch pasta recipe that shows how to use just your hands and a knife; nothing expensive to buy or difficult to operate. But, my old pasta maker did grind out many yummy plates of varying noodle shapes and thicknesses before its sad demise. If noodles are your passion, let’s hear from you – your favorite pasta recipe could premier here and fill many a tummy.
