Creamed Mushroom Phyllo Pie

Creamed Mushroom Phyllo Pie

Sometimes I get random dish ideas. They stay in my mind until I make them. If not, they become an obsession that borderlines on torture. I don’t know what it is. The yogis call this Bhakti, devotion. Anyway, I don’t think it’s a form of devotion because sometimes it feels like the obsession will drive me insane and I will see no peace. Until I create the damn thing. So anyway, here it is. Creamed Mushroom Phyllo Pie. I used shiitake, oyster, and portobello with a mix of baby kale and baby spinach. Here’s the recipe.

Spiced Molasses Crinkle Cookies

I’m trying really hard to make this Christmas ✨festive✨. It’s hard work, so I made these spiced molasses crinkle cookies in order to feel better about a shitty situation. They’re highly inspired in Masala Chai being that they have all of the ingredients of Masala Chai: cardamom, black pepper, cloves, cinnamon, and ginger. However I skipped the black tea because with the molasses and sugar it would just have been way too much. Spiced Molasses Crinkle Cookies Ingredients 2 cup all-purpose flour 1 tbsp fresh ground ginger 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1 tsp ground cardamom 1 tsp ground cloves 1/4 tsp ground black pepper 3/4 tsp baking soda  1/4 tsp salt  1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter softened 1/2 cup granulated sugar (such as turbinado or demerara) 1/2 packed brown sugar  1/4 cup unsulphured molasses  1 large egg  1/3 cup powdered sugar Method In a medium bowl, combine all of your dry ingredients very well: flour, , baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, salt, and black pepper, then set the bowl aside. Using a stand mixer …

Galletas Especiadas de Melaza

Si miras muy de cerca … puedes ver un largo mechón de mi cabello. Maravilloso. Es difícil para mí sentirme ✨festive✨ durante estos días por razones que puedes asumir, así que he estado horneando más de lo habitual. No soy muy de hornear cosas, pero aprendí un par de cosas durante mi tiempo trabajando en una repostería, así que tengo bastante confianza en lo que hago. Desarrollé esta receta por un capricho de inspiración después de que una amiga me dejó algunas galletas de jengibre la otra noche. Estas están muy inspiradas en masala chai. Están muy condimentadas con cardamomo, jengibre, canela, clavo y pimienta negra. Sin té negro porque no hay razón para volverse loca … todavía. Galletas Especiadas de Melaza 2 tazas de harina para todo uso 1 cucharada de jengibre fresco molido 1 cucharadita de canela en polvo 1 cucharadita de cardamomo molido 1 cucharadita de clavo molido 1/4 cucharadita de pimienta negra molida 3/4 cucharadita de bicarbonato de sodio 1/4 cucharadita de sal 1 barra (1/2 taza) de mantequilla sin sal …

I love pistachios. I love almonds. So when I saw Claire Saffitz’ Pistachio Pinwheel Cookies I was IN.
