Louisiana Real and Rustic
By Emeril Lagasse
William Morrow Cookbooks - 1996
This is a very easy recipe with all the flavors of Louisiana. You can adjust the amount of spices to suit your taste. I make the jambalaya with andouille, a spicy sausage, but is delicious with the ham.

The King Arthur Flour Baker's Companion: The All-Purpose Baking Cookbook
By King Arthur Flour
Countryman Press - 2003
I looked at many recipes before I found this one. My family likes stollen with an almond paste filling, this one is excellent. I have made this recipe twice and it came out better than any store bought stollen. It takes quite a bit of time to make, but it yields three loaves that you can freeze or give away.

These little molten chocolate cakes are cute and delicious. Easy to make, but I had some trouble getting them out of the pan. The chocolate pieces that you put in the middle, stuck to the bottom of the pan. Next time I will try a nonstick pan.
This recipe makes 32 mini cakes, but they freeze beautifully. Reheat for a few seconds in the microwave.

This bread is typically made in South America, and because they are made with tapioca starch the buns are gluten-free. They have a nice flavor from parmesan cheese and garlic. Good with soup or a snack. Reheats quickly in the microwave.

This recipe is more about technique, than ingredients. I used a lemon-lime soda can instead of the beer. The chicken was delicious, very moist and tender.

This is a great recipe for blueberry pie. I make it every summer when the blueberries are in season, sometimes I add some blackberries when they look good in the farmers market. I use the recipe for the sweet dough on page 149. I always get raves.

I have been making these appetizers for years, they are great. They take a little bit of work but you can make them ahead and freeze them. First you have to make the cream cheese pastry and then chill 1 hour. Next the filling. Roll out the pastry,cut out rounds, fill and seal. If you bake them frozen, add to baking time, till they are golden brown.

This is a simple dip to make. It's creamy, but not thick. It's buttery, garlicky and has lots of anchovies. Serve with crisp vegetables.

The filling is easy to make, but preparing the pepperoncini and pipping the mixture into each one is tedious. They are worth the trouble, but only if you have the time and patience.

Another good recipe if you love artichokes. Moderately easy to make. It's layers of artichoke pesto and cream cheese formed into a tort. Serve with bread or crackers.

I reduced the cheddar from 8 ounces to 6 ounces and it's still a very rich soup. I also substituted baked potatoes for the mashed potatoes. All in all a very good soup.

This is a simple appetizer to make, but forming the 30 to 40 balls of spinach takes time and patience. The only ingredient that I didn't like was the margarine,but when this recipe aired on TV they said it didn't work well with butter. The recipe is still worth making.

This dough is made with over a cup of honey,and it has a filling of chocolate, cream and almonds. It's a very sticky dough, so it must be rolled between two pieces of wax paper. But it's worth the effort, the cookies are great.

This is one of my favorites, the chicken is moist and tender and the sauce is smooth and silky. I don't like peas so I substituted green beans and corn. I make extra and freeze them, then I can have them anytime.

Very tasty and quick to put together. I changed a few things,added red pepper flakes and put it together in the serving bowl instead of the pan. Added the breadcrumbs last,so they stayed crispy. This dish is all about the olives, so you must like them.

The recipe has been tweaked a bit, from the original no-knead recipe. The dough is not as wet as the original, needs some kneading and it replaces some of the water with a mild-flavored lager. It is an easy recipe that produces a great bread.

This pie dough is different in technique and that half the water is replaced by vodka. The dough is wetter and easier to roll out.The vodka vaporizes in the oven and using less water makes the dough more tender. Great recipe, I use it for all my pies and tarts.
