We completely bypassed Autumn here in Sydney. One week ago, I was still in short and thongs, splashing around in the surf with Dozer, just as I was back in December. But now, it’s freezing. Let me rephrase – cold by Sydney standards. “Cold” being 55F/13C. It will get colder as we get into the height of winter, but really, the truth is that even in winter, most days it’s as warm as spring....
As a self-proclaimed kitchen slowpoke, even the most simple one-pan recipes for me take longer. My typical pace in the kitchen hovers somewhere between “comfortable” and “seriously—what have I been doing in here for the past hour?” I like to thoughtfully select garnishes, chat to whoever happens to be in the kitchen with me (even if it’s usually just my dog), sip on a Jalapeño Margarita, and just relax. Therefore, for fun (and efficiency), I decided to give myself a challenge....

Beer bread is a savory quick bread that uses the carbonation in beer for leavening. Like other quick bread recipes, you make beer bread without yeast, a shortcut that makes it especially easy to prepare. Beer bread is buttery and moist. The inside crumb is sturdy but tender. The outside is lightly craggly. One of my favorite parts about eating beer bread is picking off that textured top! I’m hesitant to use the phrase “you can whip this right up!...
My kids’ never liked beets until I introduced them to this rice. Mildly flavoured with mint leaves and whole spices, this dish also has some green peas & potatoes added to it for a sweeter flavor. However you can easily tweak it to your personal preferences by swapping mint leaves with coriander leaves and boiled/canned chickpeas for green peas. You may completely skip the potatoes in the recipe. Some crunchy papads, cucumber raita or plain yogurt or a vegetable salad will compliment your meal....

While I am not new to Korean cooking, I initially found preparing bibimbap to be quite intimidating and even a little stressful. As I was learning to make this dish, I discovered that there are dozens of tasty components to choose from for bibimbap, and what you put in it really depends on what you have, what you like, or what you feel like eating on a particular day. Any single bibimbap bowl cannot, and should not for that matter, include all of the possible ingredients, so different recipes showcase different components....
While a lot of people say a dish without meat is not a biryani and a lot more say a dish which is not layered and dum cooked is not a biryani. However the truth is that there is no one way it is made. But yes an authentic biryani is said to have meat and is always layered & dum cooked. About Biryani Rice Biryani Rice is a fake version of the authentic biryani as it has no meat, not layered and is not dum cooked....

(Today’s post is sponsored by the U.S. Highbush Blueberry Council. After all, who doesn’t love blueberries?) Yep! Thanksgiving is in two weeks and Christmas is in 45 days. ?

This salad is close relative of our family favorite Italian tomato and cucumber salad. It has the similar fantastic taste and similar summery freshness, only it goes above and beyond that. What makes this bread salad truly special is the pieces of toasted sourdough bread, my new favorite – beer bread and pan bread with sourdough discard, or the quick but so good no-knead bread, and the Italian-style salad dressing that is so good that you could just drink it....
