| This is an outstanding meatloaf.
- It's a trifle salty. Think I'll use only 1/2tsp next time.
- I didn't need the extra 1 cup of beef juice at the end. But I see now that I used 3/4 cup of wine instead of 1/4 cup. Oh well.
The best meatloaf I've made, and not drowned in tomato sauce. Yum. |
| The recipe calls for five large eggs to serve three people. I used five to serve two people (for brunch). DH said I should use six eggs for two people. Nicely spicy with some seeded chiles, topped with mixed herbs (tarragon, parsley, and chives tonight), the eggs are scrambled in the pan, rather than beaten on the side. Yummy. |

| Surprisingly delicious, with fairly simple ingredients.
Two of us ate a whole recipe as a dinner soup. Four to five servings only as a small starter. |
| A quick and relatively easy scone recipe.
- Recipe says it makes 9. I made 11; I thought they were slightly thick and my cutter was a bit more than the 2" asked.
- Had to add the full amount of milk, plus a dab more.
- No sultanas.
Good they were, especially with a dab of jam. |
| Pretty darn good way to cook a chicken. Kennedy recommends cutting it in half in half, but I suppose spatchcocking would work fine also. Tasty and easy to put together. |
| Very tasty soup made with roasted mushrooms. Easy to make, if a bit time-consuming (1hr roasting the shrooms).
- I made a half recipe, which made two main-dish servings, no room for seconds.
- I used about 1/3 oyster mushrooms and 2/3 champignons de Paris, the brown mushroom.

| Made up a batch of this. Yet to be seen how it works.
It makes a huge amount. My blender couldn't do the job. I transferred to a bowl and used my hand mixer.
The old jar I used years ago for my starter is one liter and it was only a bit more than half full. For this starter, I used a 1-1/2-liter French canning jar (without the seal) and it has a good liter of starter. If this turns out to be a good starter, I'll try to cut it back a bit.
A week before I can use it. |
| This is the *best* recipe I've found for making whole wheat pasta, which I don't ordinarily like much. It makes a tasty, chewy pasta, cut as tagliatelli, fettucine, or spaghetti. Roll to 5. |
