Maccheroni alla Chitarra con Tartufo dei Poveri reviewed by kaye16From: Geometry of Pasta (reviewed 14th November 2014)An interesting sauce wherein the ingredients (mushrooms, olives, anchovies, and chili flakes) are ground together in the food processor. The whole mass... | |
Spiced Quinces reviewed by friederikeFrom: Good Old-fashioned Jams, Preserves and Chutneys (reviewed 15th November 2014)Just some preliminary notes, as I'm not supposed to open these jars for a month or two: a few things weren't entirely clear from the recipe, or I suspect... | |
Shoba Ramji's Alimucha Oorga, Lime Pickle reviewed by kaye16From: Flavours of India (reviewed 16th November 2014)I've tried another pickle, which was pretty horrible, so I was pleased to find this one was pretty tasty. Maybe not as good as a commercial lime pickle,... | |
Weeknight Skillet Fajitas reviewed by BethNHFrom: The America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook, Heavy-Duty Revised Edition (reviewed 24th November 2014)These are exactly the same recipe as the chicken fajitas from the same cookbook (though not listed together). Although my boys prefer beef, we didn't... | |
Baked Quinces with Pecan Brittle / Gebackene Quitten mit Pekannuss-Krokant reviewed by friederikeFrom: Essen & Trinken (reviewed 24th November 2014)The idea was quite nice, the execution was not. The main problem was the brittle - even before we used it on the quinces, it was quite soft and not as... | |
Chewy Salted Oatmeal Cookies reviewed by jennccFrom: Food & Wine (reviewed 8th December 2014)The idea is terrific but the recipe itself is rather standard. The first batch (as the recipe is written) was just blah so I improved it by adding pecans... | |
Brussels Sprouts with Lemon-Mustard Sauce reviewed by hipcookFrom: Jane Brody's Good Food Book (reviewed 25th December 2014)My other recipe for this sauce uses more butter, but this lighter version trades richness for a very pleasant acidity. | |
Mango Ice Cream Sandwich with Macadamia Nut Cookies and Tropical Fruit Compote reviewed by kaye16From: Dinners for Two, Menus and Music: Vol IV (reviewed 26th December 2014)The result of the recipe is better than 3, but the instructions and proportions are wrong, so I've down-graded based on that. Too bad.
I made the mango... | |
Naan reviewed by kateqFrom: Saveur Website (reviewed 27th December 2014)The dough is way too soft. Portioning and shaping has to happen on a board and with hands that are constantly kept floured. It may just be that uping... | |
Jelly Doughnuts reviewed by Queezle_SisterFrom: Smitten Kitchen (reviewed 2nd January 2015)What in the world possessed me to make something as unhealthy as doughnuts on new years day? I guess I know - I had been promising my daughter for a year... | |
Carrot Slaw reviewed by Queezle_SisterFrom: The Forest Feast: Simple Vegetarian Recipes from My Cabin in the Woods (reviewed 3rd January 2015)This was a very simple recipe - grated carrots, golden raisins, and pecans (which I toasted). The author suggests a simple dressing, but I still had roasted... | |
Chile-Lime Veggie Noodles reviewed by kaye16From: Eating Well (reviewed 3rd January 2015)We liked this ok. It's easy and relatively fast.
The recipe says it serves 5 with 8oz spaghetti. That seemed skimpy to me. For two I used 6oz spaghetti,... | |
Hoppin' John Black-Eyed Pea Confit reviewed by southerncookerFrom: Cooking with Love: Comfort Food that Hugs You (reviewed 5th January 2015)My daughter made this one for us for part of our New Year's Day 2015 supper. Each year we make some recipe for black-eyed peas, collards and hog jowls.... | |
Chunky Fish Chowder reviewed by friederikeFrom: BBC Good Food (reviewed 5th January 2015)I was about to make the Smoked Haddock Chowder, when I realised it was an awful lot like Cullen Skink, which we had dubbed 'liquid fish pie'. So I chose... | |
Perfect Oven Sweet Potato Fries reviewed by friederikeFrom: Instructables (reviewed 5th January 2015)DH tried to make these last night - I wasn't too impressed, though, and that definitely wasn't DH's fault. My guess is that sweet potatoes just aren't... | |
Cajun spiced chicken with potato wedges and chive dip reviewed by redjanetFrom: The Hairy Dieters: How to Love Food and Lose Weight (reviewed 14th January 2015)I used this more as an inspiration than as an actual recipe as I already had a tin of Cajun seasoning lying around, which I used instead of the prescribed... | |
Crispy Parma pork reviewed by redjanetFrom: Jamie's 15-Minute Meals (reviewed 14th January 2015)This was nice, but nothing very exciting. The chilli and mint gave a nice kick of flavour to the courgettes and the pork was easy to prepare. I didn't... | |
Potato Leek Soup reviewed by hipcookFrom: Alton Brown's Gear For Your Kitchen (reviewed 18th January 2015)A pretty good take on the classic. Warm, smooth, and refined. I found it needed salt; that probably depends on how much is already in the stock you use. | |
Brandenburg Stuffed Cabbage / Brandenburger Kohlrouladen reviewed by friederikeFrom: Culinaria Germany (reviewed 22nd January 2015)I wasn't impressed. I knew it would be a lot of work - blanch the cabbage and carefully remove the leaves, make a filling, stuff the cabbage leaves, then... | |
Ooey-Gooey Brownies reviewed by vanessavegFrom: Vegan Diner: Classic Comfort Food for the Body and Soul (reviewed 24th January 2015)I didn't have the problem with dryness the other reviewer mentioned. The brownies tasted good,and they smelled divine thanks to the coffee in them. The... | |
Egg Cakes with Bacon (Eierpfannkucken mit Speck) reviewed by hipcookFrom: The German Kitchen: Traditional Recipes, Regional Favorites (reviewed 24th January 2015)It's a nice dish; a more custardy take on a frittata appropriate for brunch or breakfast-for-dinner.
Unfortunately, the recipe really doesn't help on... | |
Broccoli with olives, orange zest, and parsley reviewed by vanessavegFrom: Fresh & Fast Vegetarian: Recipes That Make a Meal (reviewed 25th January 2015)I used a mix of broccoli and cauliflower, but otherwise I followed the recipe to the letter. I wasn't crazy about this for some reason. I think I would... | |
dreamy winter vegetable chowder w/ mustard, lemon + crispy cabbage reviewed by kfranzettaFrom: The First Mess (reviewed 26th January 2015)This is a hearty winter stew. I think that I added too much lemon, so the flavor was a bit sour for me. The Old Bay Seasoning does add a nice touch. If... | |
greek islands salad reviewed by leene101From: Fresh from the Farm: A Year of Recipes and Stories (reviewed 26th January 2015) | |
Pork steaks, Hungarian pepper sauce & rice reviewed by redjanetFrom: Jamie's 15-Minute Meals (reviewed 29th January 2015)The sauce is lovely and overall this is a very nice, healthy meal with fresh flavours. My only drawback is, as with many of these recipes, that although... | |
Creamy Roasted Brussels Sprout and Quinoa Gratin reviewed by kfranzettaFrom: Cookie + Kate (reviewed 30th January 2015)This is good, but very cheesy. If I make this again, I may cut back on the amount of gruyere. | |
Prawn linguine with rocket reviewed by redjanetFrom: Eat Like A Girl (reviewed 30th January 2015)This is a nice and simple but tasty dish that is perfect for a mid-week meal and for using up some prawns I had languishing in the freezer. The rocket... | |
Spicy Tamarind and Channa Risotto Kitcheree reviewed by kaye16From: Lisa's Kitchen (reviewed 1st February 2015)Pretty good. A bit monochrome in color; adding some green peas for color at the end, might be nice.
I made a half recipe as dinner for two. It was fine,... | |
Stoofperencrumble met lobbige room reviewed by friederikeFrom: Stoofperen.nl (reviewed 2nd February 2015)As I still had some 'stoofperen' (cooking pears poached in red wine) leftover from yesterday, I decided to give them an upgrade with this crumble recipe.
I'll... | |
Szechuan Noodles with Green Beans and Cashews reviewed by ajensFrom: Vegetarian Classics: 300 Essential and Easy Recipes for Every Meal (reviewed 4th February 2015)A tasty cold noodle salad for summer.

Perfect Pancakes reviewed by ajensFrom: Vegetarian Classics: 300 Essential and Easy Recipes for Every Meal (reviewed 4th February 2015)Okay. These are thin type pancakes and I'm more of a thick and fluffy person. | |
Pumpkin Pancakes reviewed by ajensFrom: Vegetarian Classics: 300 Essential and Easy Recipes for Every Meal (reviewed 4th February 2015)A thinner type pancake which I'm not as partial to. Decent flavor though. | |
Chocolate Ginger Snaps reviewed by BethNHFrom: Still Life with Menu Cookbook (reviewed 17th February 2015)I made these for someone whose favorite flavors are chocolate and ginger. Sadly, these cookies don't taste strongly of either flavor. I suppose that... | |
Spiced Sweet Potatoes and Chickpeas reviewed by kfranzettaFrom: Sprouted Kitchen (reviewed 19th February 2015)This took much longer to cook than the recipe indicated. This is a nice side dish, but I don't know if it tastes that much better than plain roasted sweet... | |
Coffee Baba reviewed by Queezle_SisterFrom: The Silver Spoon (reviewed 23rd February 2015)This cookbook has been selected for our next cooking club gathering, and my assignment is dessert. There are lots of desserts in this gigantic book, and... | |
Raspberry Cream Soup reviewed by vanessavegFrom: The Complete Book of Raw Food: Healthy, Delicious Vegetarian Cuisine Made with Living Foods (reviewed 1st March 2015)It's healthy, but lacks pizzazz. The "cream" comes from cashews, and they are more gritty than creamy. I'll soak the cashews first if I make this again.... | |
Pineapple Upside-Down Cake reviewed by innocentfrontFrom: Southern Cakes: Sweet and Irresistible Recipes for Everyday Celebrations (reviewed 2nd March 2015)The cake was light, the pineapple was gooey and sweet. A great and easy recipe for a classic cake.
My baking time was nearly doubled for some reason.... | |
Cauliflower Cheese Steak reviewed by Queezle_SisterFrom: The Forest Feast: Simple Vegetarian Recipes from My Cabin in the Woods (reviewed 4th March 2015)Cauliflower sliced clear through to make large slabs, roasted in the oven, then topped with cheese. Its really a can't miss recipe, but...

Almost Classic Pork and Celery Stew reviewed by friederikeFrom: The Olive and the Caper: Adventures in Greek Cooking (reviewed 4th March 2015)A bit bland; tastes like chicken (or rather pork) soup without the soup. Even though completely un-Greek, it was better served with couscous than with... | |
Lime-Curry Orzo reviewed by kaye16From: Fast, Fresh & Spicy Vegetarian : Healthful Recipes for the Cook on the Run (reviewed 6th March 2015)An odd combination, curry spices with olives and feta, but it wasn't too bad at all.
Recipe says it serves 4. I made the whole recipe for 2 (and served... | |
Cherry Cake reviewed by digifish_booksFrom: Simple Cakes (reviewed 9th March 2015) | |
Grilled Salmon with Basil Butter reviewed by friederikeFrom: Real Fast Food (reviewed 9th March 2015)Quite okay, but it very much depends on what you serve it with. The first night, we served it with runner beans and potatoes. The basil butter went very... | |
Pork Chops (Banelko Chop-Nepali) reviewed by westerFrom: Joys of Nepalese Cooking (Thoroughly Revised Edition 1989) (reviewed 27th March 2015)Quite basic but very nice. The orange flavor isn't too pronounced. | |
Corn and Basmati Rice Pilaf reviewed by kaye16From: Screamingly Good Food: Fresh Feasts and Seasonal Meals to Knock Your Socks Off (reviewed 3rd April 2015)Decent way to do rice.

Broccoli & Olive Tart reviewed by kaye16From: The Book of Vegetarian Cooking (reviewed 6th April 2015)Really 3.5 we decided.

Sourdough Baguettes reviewed by jennccFrom: King Arthur Flour (reviewed 7th April 2015)These were good, but I have definitely made a better baguette. The crumb was a little dense and the crust went from very hard to a little too soft. They... | |
Creamy Guacamole-Tomatillo Dip reviewed by jennccFrom: Truly Mexican: Essential Recipes and Techniques for Authentic Mexican Cooking (reviewed 15th April 2015)This was a nice alternative to guacamole but it didn't pack enough punch for me - maybe extra lime and some cayenne would help. This is not the avocado... | |
Hippie Bowl reviewed by kfranzettaFrom: The Sprouted Kitchen Bowl and Spoon: Simple and Inspired Whole Foods Recipes to Savor and Share (reviewed 26th April 2015)These components come together nicely. The baked tofu is delicious. I used quinoa instead of millet. | |

Coconut Quinoa and Kale with Tropical Pesto reviewed by kfranzettaFrom: Cookie + Kate (reviewed 26th April 2015)This salad was ok. The raw onions were a bit overpowering. | |
Lemony Roasted Cauliflower Risotto reviewed by kfranzettaFrom: Cookie + Kate (reviewed 26th April 2015)The lemon flavor of this risotto is very nice and light. I increased the recipe, and it came out a little mushy. If I make it again, I will make it as... | |
Crumble reviewed by Queezle_SisterFrom: Ottolenghi: The Cookbook (reviewed 26th April 2015)I prepared this crumble for a topping for the Pear and Amaretto Crumble Cake, on page 218. This is a restaurant-styled recipe, it makes a lot. I only... | |

Tofu, Asparagus, and Red Pepper Stir-fry with Quinoa reviewed by kaye16From: Cooking Light (reviewed 9th May 2015)Tastes aren't bad, although the "dash of crushed red pepper" could be more substantial. A good squirt of sriracha gave it some oomph.
I think this recipe... | |
Cool White Bean and Cucumber Soup reviewed by vanessavegFrom: Vegan Express (reviewed 10th May 2015)I was looking for a refreshing summer soup. This did come together very fast, and required no cooking. It's a mix a canned great northern beans, rice milk,... | |

Cream Cheese Pie Dough reviewed by innocentfrontFrom: The Baker's Dozen Cookbook: Become a Better Baker with 135 Foolproof Recipes and Tried-and-True Techniques (reviewed 1st June 2015)Ok pie crust. Didn't think it was flakier than normal pie crust. | |
