Secret Love Notes Envelope Pillow Cover Tutorial I’m finally back at my sewing machine and it feels great! Last week I shared how to make your own pillow forms or pillow inserts. Making your own is so much cheaper than purchasing them, and it’s easier than you probably imagine. You may even already have the materials in your craft stash to whip them up. After you’ve made the pillow forms, then the pillow cover possibilities are endless.

Easy-to-Prepare Oil Pie Crust Recipe Pie crust without shortening or butter? Who would think possible? A pie crust using oil instead is not only a nice change from the usual, but is also much easier to make--you don't need a pastry blender or a rolling pin. Although the dough is most versatile when made with a mild-flavored oil like vegetable, canola, safflower or peanut, you could use extra virgin olive oil, but it is best with a savory pie like a quiche. Cauliflower Crust Thai Chicken Pizza I’ve seen this cauliflower pizza crust idea floating around the internet for a while now. It seems bizarre. Although they sound the same, cauliflower and flour have nothing in common. Turns out, my suspicions were completely wrong. Recipe Rundown Taste: A little spicy, fresh, and not at all like cauliflower. Ingredients: *Note: Use the large holes on a box grater to shred the cauliflower into crumbles. For the crust: 2 cups firmly packed shredded cauliflower from about half a large head (*see note) 1 large egg 1/4 cup finely shredded mozzarella 1 clove garlic, minced 1 tablespoon (or more) Sriracha 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons olive oil For the topping: 1 (7-ounce) jar peanut sauce (*see note) 2 tablespoons peanut butter 1 cup cooked shredded chicken (from about 1 large breast) 1/2 cup finely shredded mozzarella 4 green onions, green parts chopped 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro Directions: For the crust: Preheat oven to 450°F. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden.
Swedish Rye Bread On cool Saturday mornings, the oven seems to plead, “Make bread! Please! Make bread!” Enter my summer nemesis, a bread machine borrowed to convert a recipe for Swedish rye, a family favorite. What trouble! I learned that the extra oomph in rapid-rise yeast creates a round top on heavy, European-style bread. ALANNA's TIPS Both fennel seed and ground fennel work, so does all caraway. I love the taste and texture produced by Bob’s Red Mill’s dark rye flour but other ryes work too. Wheat gluten is a favorite breadmaker trick but lightens this bread too much. When mixed by hand, this bread works beautifully with a "slow rise" in the refrigerator overnight. For years, I baked Swedish Rye Bread in traditional loaf pans. (2012) I no longer have a bread machine so always mix this bread by hand, even a mixer is unnecessary. For just-buy-the-box convenience, Bob’s Red Mill also sells a stone ground rye bread mix for bread machines. Have you seen a Butter Bell? How to print a Kitchen Parade recipe.

Foolproof New York Cheesecake This cheesecake takes at least 12 hours to make (including chilling), so we recommend making it the day before serving. An accurate oven thermometer and instant-read thermometer are essential. To ensure proper baking, check that the oven thermometer is holding steady at 200 degrees and refrain from frequently taking the temperature of the cheesecake (unless it is within a few degrees of 165, allow 20 minutes between checking). Keep a close eye on the cheesecake in step 5 to prevent overbrowning. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Turkish pide dough recipe Standing time 2 hours 10 minutes Stir to dissolve the yeast and sugar in 125 ml of the warm water. Set aside in a warm place for about 10 minutes or until frothy. Use your fingers to work 90 g of the flour into the yeast to make a sloppy paste. Sprinkle lightly with a little more flour, then cover with a tea towel and set aside in a warm place for 30 minutes to form a "sponge". Place the remaining flour and the salt into a large bowl. Transfer to an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook and knead on a low speed for 10–15 minutes or until very smooth and springy. When ready to bake the bread, preheat the oven to its highest setting with two pizza stones or oiled baking sheets in it. Brush the surface liberally with the egg wash.
Honey Beer Bread Recipe On Friday night, I finished season six of Mad Men. At 2am. About a week after starting the season. On Netflix. On my wifi tv, my phone, my elliptical, and of course on my laptop (in just about every room of the house).
