Okay, let me tell you about my little kitchen adventure the other day. I got this sudden craving for cinnamon rolls, like, really bad. But here’s the thing: I’m doing the gluten-free thing, and honestly, messing with yeast sometimes feels like too much work, especially when you want something now. So, I decided to try making some gluten-free cinnamon rolls without yeast. Yeah, I wasn’t...

Alright, so I got the urge to bake something cozy the other day, and fruit cake muffins popped into my head. Not everyone’s cup of tea, I know, but I like ’em sometimes. Getting Started with the Fruit First thing, I tackled the dried fruit mix. Had some raisins, currants, maybe some mixed peel lying around. The usual stuff. I remembered reading somewhere, or maybe...

Alright, so I got this sudden urge the other day. You know how it is, sometimes you just need something… solid. Comforting. And I had all this dried fruit sitting around. Honestly, it’s been in the cupboard for ages, leftover from Christmas I think? Felt bad just letting it sit there, seemed like such a waste. My grandma, she never wasted a thing. Used to...

Getting Started with the Parve Chocolate Cake Okay, so today I finally got around to making that parve chocolate cake I was thinking about. It’s a pretty straightforward process, really. First thing I always do is get the oven preheating. Cranked it up to 350 degrees F, that’s about 175 C. While that was warming up, I grabbed my trusty cake pans. Used two 8-inch...

Okay, so I finally got around to doing some proper baking this weekend. I’d been seeing a lot about Francine flour recipes baking stuff online, and figured, why not give it a shot? Been meaning to bake some simple bread anyway. Getting Started First things first, I pulled out the Francine flour I bought. Got the T55 type, I think? Seemed like a good all-rounder....

Okay, so, I’ve been messing around in the kitchen again, and this time it involves tea and… heavy whipping cream. Yeah, you heard that right. Heavy whipping cream in tea. Sounds kinda weird, right? But trust me, it’s worth trying. Here’s how it all went down: It all started when I was staring into the fridge, trying to figure out what to do with this...

My Adventures with Cherry Compote in Baking So, the other week I found myself with a rather large jar of homemade cherry compote. I’d gone a bit overboard picking cherries, you see. Cooked them down with a bit of sugar, splash of lemon juice, nothing fancy. It was great on yogurt and stuff, but there was just so much of it. I thought, right, let’s...

Alright, so I’d been hearing about these Tenga things for a while. The ‘Easy Beat Egg’, specifically. Sounded kinda funny, but curiosity got the better of me, you know? Decided to just grab one and see what was up. It arrived pretty quick. Package was plain, nothing shouting about what’s inside, which is good. Popped it open, and yeah, it looks exactly like a plastic...

So, I’ve been trying to eat a little better lately, you know, cutting down on junk. Crackers are my weakness, love that crunch. Figured I’d switch to whole wheat crackers, thinking they’re automatically the healthy choice. That was the plan, anyway. Went to the grocery store the other day, looking specifically for them. Grabbed a few different boxes, all screaming “whole wheat” on the front....

Alright, let me tell you about this baking mold situation. I decided I wanted to step up my baking game, you know? Move beyond the usual round cake pans. Saw this really neat looking mold, kind of intricate, promised these amazing looking little cakes. Getting Started So, I ordered it. Didn’t cost too much, which was nice. When it arrived, it felt pretty solid, made...
