Today I want to teach you guys how to make your own pumpkin purée from scratch. It’s just about that time of year, when pumpkin everything is the talk of the town, and it seems like every store has a pile of local pumpkins available for purchase. There is something about a small, chubby pumpkin […]
Hey guys, today I’m so excited to tell you all about my new ebook, “The Naked Cake, A Step-by-Step Guide.” This tutorial is something I did the bulk of the work on years ago, and– fun fact– it was actually for a double wedding! The cake made for this book was actually 2, twin cakes! […]
Okay everybody, I believe I can safely say that I’ve successfully made a good sourdough starter! As you can see in these pictures, my starter has risen up to be beautiful, and I’ve made several successful loaves of bread (and several successful starters!) since. I’m currently working on a rye starter, but I’m not going […]
Alright everybody, it’s time for another staple to add to your recipe collection! These tortillas are actually remarkably easy to make; although, it can be a bit time consuming. I like to make these with one other person, ideally. That way, one of you can roll the tortillas into shape, and your buddy can fry […]
Okay, so this applesauce recipe is so simple to make that I almost feel embarrassed to post it… except that if you don’t know how to make it yet, the time has come, and your joy is about to multiply! This is an all-season, all-time favourite that everybody needs to know how to make because… […]
One of my goals for this year is to finally learn more about bread. I love making bread, but aside from the basics, my knowledge of the craft doesn’t span too far (to my embarrassment). So, this year, I want to change that – starting with sourdough. As I was thinking about it, however, I […]
Everybody knows I have a weakness for pumpkins. Especially cute little ones – I always have to buy one at the beginning of the season, and even then… I usually end up with multiple of them in my possession throughout the season. I just can’t help it! Anyway, it’s that time of year again, and […]
Welcome to the prettiest bagels I’ve ever made. And, depending on the type of cheese you use, possibly the smelliest. But trust me… It’s totally worth it, if you’re using the right stuff. These bagels are made by first sautéing fresh garlic with fragrant sage leaves in butter (which smells AMAZING, by the way) and […]
These simple make-at-home bagels are delicious – I can tell you that from personal, recent experience because I am currently eating one, toasted with butter, and it is delicious. I just wish… I had some cream cheese. Ah, well. Another time! This recipe is just spicy enough to make your mouth tingle, but mild enough […]
Yes, these are as good as they look. And yes, like all of my other bagels, they’re pretty quick and simple to make, even for someone who’s never done it before. Score! I love this cheddar cheese/jalapeño flavour combo, as well as the look of the crispy cheese all over the outside and green flecks […]
