Best stew ever! Worth all the work.

This is good biscotti. Not rock hard, not too sweet. A nice crunch from the cornmeal and the cherries are great. It's a very sticky dough and for me, should be made into 2" logs for baking. It spreads enough that the resulting biscotti is a good size.

Very close to the picadillo my Cuban friends taught me to make when I was in college. It took me a while to figure out what was missing. The potato cubes were fried till they were crispy and crunchy. They were not mixed in to the picadillo but rather layered--rice, beans, picadillo, potato cubes. It seems to me there was an additional sweet element--peas maybe. And it was spicier. But this is pretty close and pretty darn good.

This cake is a knockout! Five out of five tasters LOVED it and were amazed that it was gluten free. I went with the lemon syrup glaze on top and really was impressed. The texture of the cake is perfect. I found it best to put all the dry ingredients in a large bowl and whisk them well (in lieu of sifting) and to put all the wet in another and whisk that well and then combine the two. I also found it best to bake about 35 minutes--the cake begins to get a delicate brown around the edges.
I'm looking to forward to trying this with orange in stead of lemon and perhaps lime with some chopped mango in the batter.

Delicious and easy--makes a lot of sauce

For a simple yeast bread, made with all purpose flour and no starters or preferments, the results here are fabulous. The instructions are impeccable. I followed precisely, using instant yeast and my stand mixer, and the result was two gorgeous boules with a great crust and some real flavor. My only departure from the instructions was that I baked both loaves at the same time.
