Honey Jack Daniel Whiskey-Infused Prune Chocolate Brownies

Chocolate brownies! Do you prefer rich, fudge brownies, chewy ones or cake-like ones? So, the texture of the brownie depends on the ratio of chocolate, butter/oil, eggs, sugar, and flour ingredients. The type of fat used in the batter will change whether the brownie ends up being richer and fudge-like or less dense. Although I [...]

Recipe Testing: Sesame Wow Greens

Here’s another vegan recipe I tested for Terry Hope Romano’s upcoming international cookbook. So far, I’ve tried her fresh noodle soup in sesame miso broth, ginger marinated cucumbers, pumpkin potato panko cutlets, as well as her spicy kale coconut relish.

Here is a recipe for pork croquettes that I have been meaning to post for a while. These pork croquettes make tasty appetizers. You can bake them or shallow fry them in a pan. I decided to bake them since that would be a healthier option.
