PanchHambre, about a year ago we fell in love with "Adesso...Cagnina di Romagna", which has since become our "table wine". (Cagnina = ca-nee-na, as there is no "g" in the Italian language). This wine is from the Romagna region, just south of Venice, since the 13th century, and has been called...

:lol: LOL! Allen! Too funny! If you would follow a recipe as it is written, you really can avoid the "hit or miss" and actually have a successful outcome!!! The "authentic" Italian Creme Cake does call for pecans. Pecans are a moist nut than others, especially in comparison with almonds! In...

Oh, Jeekinz, the San Marz's are the best! and they make the best sauce! Good choice of words, Jenk's!!! And that is what you want with a "good" marinara sauce...you want to taste that "brightness" of those tomatoes! Once again, it's a SIMPLE sauce, packed with true tomato flavor!

No, marinara was NOT originally a "seafood" sauce. It was discovered on ships making the long journey across the Atlantic as tomatoes stored well and making a "sauce" out of them could be done in 15 minutes, the time it took for the sailors to boil the water and cook the pasta, the marinara was...

The amonia procedure works for ALL surfaces of your pots, pans, cookie sheets, cake pans, pie pans, etc., where there is that gooky, sticky baked on and baked in shiney, golden gunk! The trick to this, however, is that you cannot place your items on top of one another unless the area is free...

If you have red pepper flakes, grind them well in a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle and you'll have the same thing. I have also seen this very same recipe made with chipolte or habanero powder. Comments posted state that these pepper powders really do not add "heat" as much as they add...

Thoughts and prayers for her, and for all your family and those involved in her care.

Maverick, this is the recipe from a "cookbook" I have for copycat recipes. Not sure if it's the same as the one you have linked. CHILI'S RESTAURANT CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1/8 cup chicken base (found with chicken bouillon) 1 1/2 cups diced yellow onions 1 tsp ground...

Gabe, make sure your measuring cup is hot/heated before pouring in your candy. Pouring into a cold/room temp measure can easily drop the temp of the candy anywhere upwards to 20 degrees, which results in what you are experiencing. You can heat the measuring cup by filling it with hot tap water...

So sorry to hear this news, June. Will keep him, and all his family, in prayer. Keep positive. Prayers DO get answered!

Continue what you are doing EXCEPT place the truffles on a wire cooling rack with a parchment or wax paper lined cookie sheet under the rack to catch the drippings. This will avoid the "pooling" of chocolate you are experiencing. You can then remove the chocolate drippings which you can reuse to...

When I make butternut squash, I always use the frozen concentrate orange juice, a nice slightly heaping tablespoon, and it works quite well, and we actually prefer it over both the orange extract and the Grand Marnier. The squash with the GM didn't have the "bright" orange flavor as it did...

B'sgirl, what you want to do is as simply as what you wrote. What tonymac is attempting to do is way complicated, more for an experienced baker/chocoletier. You can purchase carob discs or other "chocolate" discs which contain parafin or other ingredients other than the milk you are trying to...

How to use 100% of a vanilla bean, or, how to get the most out of a vanilla bean: 1. Make vanilla extract. Use 6 beans to 2 cups of alcohol. For Madagascar Bourbon vanilla extract, use Madagascar beans and a good bourbon. Jack Daniels (whiskey) makes an excellent extract. You can also use...

Yes, you can turn it into a frosting without it being "grainy".... There are a number of frostings/icings which are made without heating some ingredient to "melt" or to "dissolve" the sugar. You're looking at quite a bit of frosting with the quantity of ingredients you listed. Do you have an...

A group of us tried this bread as "rolls" and what you are describing did not work. The way we were able to get "rolls" as successful as the bread was to follow the recipe up to that point. If you have a lid or cover to a cast iron pot or pan, heat that. I have several LeCreuset's casserole...

Butter, margarine, veggie oil.....

Jeni78, you may not need all the flour that any bread recipe calls for. When I teach breadmaking, I tell my students to stop short approximately 1/2 cup of the lowest amount of flour called for. For example, if the recipe calls for 4 to 5 cups of flour, stop at the 3-1/2 cups and see how your...

Ol-blue, made this, and, deelady, I used butter cuz I'm not a margarine person! WOW!!! The crust was crunchy, most definitely, and what a wonderful idea to use cereal for a crust!!! While these would be great for "anytime", I have been enjoying them for breakfast! They freeze well, too...

Baking 911 site is no longer free. She "upgraded" her website and now charges. I have both Nick's "How to Bake" and "Cooking with Julia", and as a pastry chef, I don't feel either are for a "beginner". I recently reviewed a new release from the CIA, their cookbook, "The Culinary Institute...

Well, B'sgirl, for making those names up, you are spot on!! That is exactly what we call them in the industry (tho we can get more technical and place a number along with it, i.e., a #2 round). The kit you received is pretty much what I thought it would be, and the tips are quite the ones...

If you were closer, I'd give you lessons! What all came with your set? Tips? Pastry bags? Parchment? Food colors? Any type of booklet or pamphlet to show you how to use whatever came with your set? Is there a recipe in there for "practice icing"??? It's edible, but the difference is you...

Choja, welcome to DC. Personally, I do not like boxed cake mixes, so this one I truly appreciate and enjoy. Have made this one but not the one posted by SierraCook, with the box mix. Here is the recipe you are asking about: Chocolate Macaroon Bundt Cake 1 egg white, reserving yolk 1/4...
