Yuzu Angel Food Cake

May 6, 2022Mar 24, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 6 Comments

I would love to experiment with fresh yuzu, but this is a citrus fruit we do not get here. There are always egg whites in my freezer so I used them to make this yuzu angel food cake with dried zest. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Yuzu Angel Food Cake ♥ I … Continue reading Yuzu Angel Food Cake

Garganelli Made From Two-Sided Striped Pasta

May 2, 2022May 3, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 12 Comments

To make garganelli you need a wooden board with ridges, as well as a small rolling stick. This tube shaped pasta is similar to penne and the ridges carry the pasta sauce. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Garganelli ♥ Dave and I watch MasterChef UK which is amazing. The format is fantastic, … Continue reading Garganelli Made From Two-Sided Striped Pasta

Spinach Egg Dough

Apr 29, 2022Mar 23, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 6 Comments

I used my own method to make the spinach egg dough from The Pasta Man. It was wonderful to work with and I really enjoyed using it for patterned pastas. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Spinach Egg Dough ♥ If you have ever been to hospital you will know there are standard … Continue reading Spinach Egg Dough

Orange And Almond Cake

Apr 25, 2022Mar 15, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 10 Comments

I love the method that Ellie Goulding has used for her Orange And Almond Cake. An entire orange is cooked until soft, and then used, peel and all. Zero wastage for a healthy sweet treat! Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Orange And Almond Cake ♥ About 15 years ago, my Doctor prescribed … Continue reading Orange And Almond Cake

Rich Egg Dough

Apr 22, 2022Mar 23, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 4 Comments

Expect a glut of pasta recipes from me while I work my way through The Pasta Man. I am trying to recreate Mateo's cover photo but I am not having much success. The first pasta I made was this rich egg dough. The egg yolks make this an extremely pliable dough. Head straight on to the … Continue reading Rich Egg Dough

Crema Catalana

Apr 18, 2022Mar 15, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 15 Comments

When I was sent a signed copy of The Family Meal: Home Cooking with Ferran Adrià, I was immediately drawn to the recipe for Crema Catalana. The book contains the meals he fed his staff at elBulli and from these, Dave and I have chosen one entire meal to make. A lot of the ingredients … Continue reading Crema Catalana

Chocolate Fudge Cake

Apr 15, 2022Mar 7, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 5 Comments

The secret ingredient in this chocolate fudge cake is freshly made espresso. It added a richness of flavour and the cake stayed super moist for a week. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Chocolate Fudge Cake ♥ I use quite an expensive razor blade that for years was sold online at a 3-for-2 … Continue reading Chocolate Fudge Cake

Condensed Milk Rolls

Apr 1, 2022Feb 23, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 11 Comments

These condensed milk rolls are sweet and best suited to toppings that are super salty, or fiery from the heat of chilli. I took some west coast rock lobster, slathered in a Sriracha sauce, and made lobster rolls for dinner on Valentine's night. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Condensed Milk Rolls ♥ … Continue reading Condensed Milk Rolls

Bacon And Leek Quiche

Mar 14, 2022Feb 10, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 8 Comments

This bacon and leek quiche took several attempts to get it perfect. I wanted the leeks to be cooked and not squeaky when you bit into them. And the bacon had to offer some texture. To me, what makes this a must try dish is the addition of the cheese. Head straight on to the … Continue reading Bacon And Leek Quiche

Spiced Caramel Ice Cream

Mar 11, 2022Feb 9, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 12 Comments

Some recipes are born out of leftovers, and this spiced caramel ice cream is one of them. I made a large batch of the caramel to take to friends and not all of it would fit in the jar. So I used what was left in the bowl to make this dessert. Head straight on … Continue reading Spiced Caramel Ice Cream

Quiche Pastry

Mar 7, 2022Feb 7, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 8 Comments

James inspired me with his bacon and leek quiche and I set about making my own. This quiche pastry is a doddle to make and to me, the key is refrigerating it for long enough. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Quiche Pastry ♥ Having heard the term ‘ladies who lunch’ bandied about … Continue reading Quiche Pastry

Roasted Plum Cake

Feb 18, 2022Jan 24, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 9 Comments

This roasted plum cake will stay moist for several days due to the natural juices that come from roasting the stone fruit. I may adjust the recipe slightly if I make it again, but that does not detract from how good it was. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Roasted Plum Cake ♥ … Continue reading Roasted Plum Cake

Baked Chocolate Mousse

Feb 11, 2022Jan 19, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 8 Comments

I was not sure what to call this recipe. It is a failed brownie but not quite a pudding. I finally settled on baked chocolate mousse. It is rich and decadent and made for the perfect dessert when served warm. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Baked Chocolate Mousse ♥ Last year, Jim … Continue reading Baked Chocolate Mousse

Vanilla Cookies

Jan 17, 2022Nov 30, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 8 Comments

Hannah came to bake with me and we made vanilla cookies. This is a simple recipe that works well for cutting out. You can add sprinkles etc. as a topping or change the flavour profile as detailed in the recipe. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Vanilla Cookies ♥ Never before has reading … Continue reading Vanilla Cookies

Bacon Waffles

Dec 31, 2021Nov 29, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 9 Comments

There is one place we always go to when in Amsterdam and that is Pancakes Amsterdam. On each visit I have the pancakes with bacon pieces cooked into them. Served with maple syrup it is the perfect meal. Using this as my inspiration I made bacon waffles to enjoy for breakfast. Head straight on to … Continue reading Bacon Waffles

Mocha Tart

Dec 27, 2021Nov 29, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 8 Comments

It took me close on a year to remake this mocha tart. It had to be perfect before I could share it. The ganache is on the bitter side which I prefer. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Mocha Tart ♥ Last year I wanted to get the curtains for our dining room. … Continue reading Mocha Tart

Chocolate Bites

Dec 20, 2021Nov 29, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 22 Comments

These chocolate bites are a delicious choc chip cookie. Make them  gluten free by using gluten-free flour. Or lactose free by using dairy free chocolate. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Chocolate Bites ♥ Yesterday I had a good chuckle. A woman drove into our private parking and attempted to park her car … Continue reading Chocolate Bites

Vanilla Pastry

Dec 13, 2021Dec 14, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 10 Comments

I first made a mocha tart using this vanilla pastry on the 8th of February. I was not happy with the original mocha ganache so I decided to make it again. That did not happen until last week, 10 months later! Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Vanilla Pastry ♥ Dave and I … Continue reading Vanilla Pastry

Liquorice Biscuits

Dec 3, 2021Nov 11, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 7 Comments

I used liquorice powder to make these liquorice biscuits but do not worry if you don't have any. The flavour is easily replicated using fennel seeds. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Liquorice Biscuits ♥ *Screeeech* That is the sound of the brakes being deployed in my life. I had a plan to … Continue reading Liquorice Biscuits

Cheese Muffins With Piquantè Cream Cheese

Nov 29, 2021Nov 11, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 13 Comments

The recipe called for 1 teaspoon of the mixture to be used for each of the cheese muffins which did not make sense to me. I used slightly more and still ended up with 21 small muffins. Head straight on to the Recipe For ♥ Cheese Muffins ♥ 16 years, 8 months and 2 weeks … Continue reading Cheese Muffins With Piquantè Cream Cheese
