I’m going to attend a family gathering this weekend, and there will be a bunch of youngins’ in attendance. In a perfect world, they would go crazy for my acorn squash soup or a fall salad, but let’s not fool ourselves. All they want is sugar. Sugar, sugar, and more sugar. Actually, the adults crave a bit of sugar at parties, too. These pumpkin spice rice krispies with Oreos will be a crowd pleaser, don’t you think?...
It took me a while to figure out the best method for making scallion pancakes. In the past, I rolled out small balls of dough into a relatively thin circle, rolled that circle up into a tight log, and curled that circle into a snail-like shape. Then, I would roll out that curled dough into a thin circle again, and pan fried the pancakes (see my post here for the full recipe)....
Puoi cucinare questi flatbread in 3 modi diversi: su una teglia nel forno, in una padella o su una pietra refrattaria per pizza da forno. Poi per condire i flatbread vi propongo 3 condimenti speciali che chiamiamo l’italiano (stracchino vegano, basilico e pomodori), il greco (pesto di pomodori secchi, olive e yogurt) e il californiano (purè di avocado e una salsa chipotle veloce). Ma cos’è il flatbread-pizza? Il flatbread-pizza è un ibrido tra un flatbread e una pizza ed è assolutamente delizioso....

A friend of mine tried to dissuade me from making these sandwiches because the thought of peanut butter and cheese was rather suspect. I’m so glad I followed my taste buds and stood my ground. I wouldn’t have known about the glory that is grilled PB&J sandwiches with cheese, and I wouldn’t have experienced my first ever PB&J-induced food coma. Hot diggity, these sandwiches were addictive! And now for some truth....

It will quickly become a household staple! How to Make Cashew Cream Cashew cream is a simple blend of cashews and water. I like to use raw cashews because they have a very mild flavor that will be neutral enough to add to almost any recipe. I typically use a 2:1 ratio of cashews to water when making cashew cream, so that the cream isn’t too runny. You can add more water as needed, 1 tablespoon at a time to help thin it out, but this starting point will give you more options later....
More often than not, Mama Lin and I make dumplings with store-bought dumpling wrappers because it saves a lot of time. That said, I also like using fresh wrappers because they are better for making certain types of dumpling pleats. In addition, homemade dumpling skins have a softer, chewier texture when they’re cooked. That’s why it is well worth the effort to make the wrappers from scratch. TIPS ON HOW TO MAKE DUMPLING WRAPPERS WEIGHING THE FLOUR If Mama Lin were in the kitchen, she would just throw flour and water into a bowl and adjust the amount of each ingredient based on feel....
What is a Flax Egg? A flax egg is a vegan egg replacement made from a combination of ground flax seeds and water.You can also use ground chia seeds, instead of flax, for a similar result. When mixed together, the flax meal will start to “gel” with the water, creating the consistency of an egg that you can use in baking. Flax seeds are a great source of lignans and omega-3 fatty acids, so they make a healthy addition to recipes!...

Be sure to check out the recipes below for more ideas.

As a nod to the culinary adventures of my youth, I made mashed potato waffles with Chinese sausage. I love how the waffle iron creates thin and crisp pockets that contrast nicely with the soft texture of the mashed potatoes. The sliced scallions also give a lovely fragrant flavor to the waffles. These mashed potato waffles are great on their own or served with my sweet chili sauce or any kind of chili crisp!...

Not only does it add some great flavor and chew, but it also bulks up any salad and makes them feel like a real hearty meal rather than just a side. I love this salad because the couscous really soaks up the flavor of the dressing, meaning it’s delicious to pack up for lunch the next day!...
