Substituting All Purpose Flour for Bread Flour?
I have never bothered with bread flour. Instead, I purchase a little bag of a product called vital wheat gluten and add a heaping tablespoon per loaf (double that if Im making rye or whole wheat, which I usually am). This has worked well for me for years. Mine...
Easy Baked Apples (Microwave)
I appreciate the fact that this recipe has no sugar. Most baked apple recipes are so loaded down with sugar that it pretty much cancels out the point of eating the fruit in the first place. This is all healthy stuff!
Quick Lemon Pound Cake
I cant wait to try this as a shortcake base (happily, without the short). I dont care for biscuit-type shortcake. I think this will be just great, nice lemony flavor to compliment the berries. Mmm-mmm-mmmmmmmmm!
Handmade Pasta
MYO pasta is the boss! I have several recipes but will certainly try this one the next time Im in the mood for Italian. You can also just rough cut the rolled dough into 3-4 wide sheets and use it in lasagna - No need to cook first nor to add extra liquid to...
Chicken In A Brown Paper Poke
Cant wait to try this! I used to cook turkey this way all the time, but then I stopped. No idea why because it really is a great method. Paper or plastic? From now on, Ill take paper!
Rich Sweet Dough
Congratulations! Ive been auditioning various dough recipes for kolache. Dont want anything too sweet because I use sweet toppings. I think this might just do the trick. Cant wait to try it!
Cranberry Ketchup
Im not a big catsup fan, but this sounds amazing! How long do you think it will keep in the fridge (since Ill more than likely be the only one using it)?
Moravian Sugar Cake
Im thinking I might try this basic dough to make kolache. Ive been trying for years to get close to my grandmothers recipe with no luck. (Unfortunately, when she was alive, I was totally disinterested in cooking. Now Im pushing 70 and really wishing Id paid...
Cream of Mushroom Soup Recipe?
The best cream of mushroom soup I ever ate was in Minneapolis, the one and only time I was there. I ate it for lunch and dinner for three solid days; it was that good--thick and rich, wonderful dense flavor, had a little wild rice in it (of course...Minnesota...
Eating Canned Sardines
I love em--eat them right out of the can sprinkled with a little cider vinegar. Also have to have a couple of hunks of Rye-Krisp and some sliced canned beets--also right out of the can. (Come to think of it, lots of things taste ever so much better right out...
Recipes Using Soy Milk?
Not a recipe but a word of warning: I would be wary of drinking a lot of soymilk, which is highly touted as quite healthy. Soy contains phytoestrogens--hence, msburnys reference to menopausal symptoms below. I had a hysterectomy over 20 years ago, but just...
Have a Mix of Perennials, Annuals, and Shrubs
Your garden is simply gorgeous. Im also interested in knowing what you plant as well as how you built the tiered beds with landscaping timbers. Ive googled all over the place for directions for this (esp. how you hold the timbers together and how you attach...
PatternReview.com Sewing Website
Another very wonderful feature of this website is that you can look up patterns by individual number, and people who have sewn them offer very thorough commentaries on the up- and downsides of the pattern--skimpy sleeves, floppy backs, linings that dont quite...
Butterscotch Icebox Cookies
Oh, thank you so much for this recipe. My mom used to make these all the time.
Help Selecting a Chair and Rug Color for Living Room?
I vote for burgundy - nice spot of color. Dont know your style, but in my early attic decor, Id look for an oriental-type area rug with navy & burgundy.

Cooking From Scratch
A sure delete for me is cream of anything soup, salty, glutenous and disgusting! If some soup-containing recipe seems like a must-try, which is very rare, I use a MYO mixture I got on this site years ago: http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf31678626.tip.html Its a...
