What Are Lion House Rolls? These rolls are made with an enriched dough—meaning in addition to flour, water, and yeast, this dough is enriched with egg, fat, and dairy. In the case of these rolls, we use dry milk powder which is called for in almost all Lion House roll recipes we found in our research. In addition to the milk powder (aka powdered milk), there’s an egg and LOTS of butter in the dough brushed between the layers and brushed on top warm from the oven....

I’m sitting in a dark corner of Los Angeles International airport (squatting by a powerpoint!), writing this post for a recipe I cooked and photographed before I left for month long trip to Mexico and Los Angeles. It’s Monday night LA time and I won’t arrive home until Wednesday morning Sydney time because of the time difference. The flight actually isn’t that long – “only” 15 hours, far faster than the 24 hours it takes to get to London!...

Where our fruit salads tend to be rather predictable, a typical Mexican fruit cocktail has elements of chili and salt, and perhaps some cilantro and onion as well. The combination is interesting in the best possible way, and terrific served alongside Mexican food or on its own for a snack. The following fruit cocktail recipe is from the Jalisco region of Mexico. Its formal name is “Ensalada de Pico de Gallo” and comes from a friend of a friend from Guadalajara....

Where can I purchase cotija cheese? Cotija is carried in many grocery stores in the United States and can be found near the cheeses or deli section. It’s a Mexican-style cheese so it can also be found in Latin grocery stores or in the Latin section of a well-stocked supermarket. What can I use instead of cotija cheese? If you can’t find cotija cheese, you can substitute with parmesan cheese or feta cheese....

That speaks to the ease of making these milk bread rolls. The ingredients are dumped into a stand mixer, which then does all the hard work. You do have to make tangzhong—the secret to lasting softness—but that’s simply boiling flour and milk into a paste. Don’t be surprised if your family asks for these rolls for every dinner. What Is Milk Bread? Milk bread, known as shokupan in Japan, is a super soft and airy everyday bread....

I’ve never had it anywhere but at home, not even at a school cafeteria, where God knows they’ve served every other budget meal known to mankind. Did my mother invent it? Probably not, but she may just as well have. We’ve eaten this ground turkey recipe in our house at least once a month for almost 50 years. And you know what? It’s good. It’s cheap (especially ground turkey thighs which have the added benefit of more flavor)....

This is a reader-favourite recipe included by popular demand in my debut cookbook “Dinner”! A JUICY Baked Chicken Breast! Though I always stand firm that brown meat is better than white – more flavour, more juiciness – lean chicken breast is a regular in my shopping trolley, week after week. So today, I’m sharing my recipe for how I make Oven Baked Chicken Breast. We can never have too many really great quick chicken breast recipes!...

And the next free eCookbook is….. drumroll please….. ASIAN TAKEOUT AT HOME!!! I’m trying to ramp up the excitement, but it won by quite a margin and everyone could see the results of the poll at anytime. So rather than a drumroll, a more appropriate sound effect was probably pfffffffff ( <– The sound of a deflating balloon, totally obvious, no? 😉) It will largely be a collation of recipes already on my site, but I’ll add some extras that I haven’t published....

And the tomatoes. Beefsteak tomatoes, early girls, heirlooms, plum tomatoes, not to mention the little ones like sun golds. Anyway, the heat has come, the garden has finally started to act like summer, and this classic Tuscan bread salad is a perfect thing to make with the bounty. What Is Panzanella Salad? Panzanella is really a way to use up crusty bread that has gotten hard and to celebrate perfect summer tomatoes....

This healthy, aromatic dish is low in fat and carbs, but big on flavor. The best part is that this delicious dinner requires little clean up and can be on the table 30 minutes start to finish. Once you master the parchment wrapping technique for this recipe you can apply it to any variety of protein and vegetable combinations. The same is true for Chermoula, the sauce comes together in minutes, and provides a solid punch of flavor for this hands-off dinner recipe, but it also makes a delicious dressing, dip, marinade, or topping for grilled vegetables and chicken....

Some of your gathering may be vegetarian, or gluten-free, or dairy-free, or all three. Pasta is pretty easy to do gluten-free, there are many gluten-free brands available that are pretty good (we’ve been using Bionaturae lately). But if you’re going dairy-free, what about the Parm? To me pasta without Parmesan, or some other nutty cheese, is just missing something. So, following a tip from Sunset Magazine, I used chopped toasted almonds instead....

Anyway, I was in one of those moods for dessert, but felt the guilt of the spoon, so I decided to make some peanut butter and Nutella no bake cookies.

This recipe is super easy to make and is perfect for an adventure in cooking with kids....

Why Do They Call it Antipasto Salad? As mentioned, antipasto is a traditional Italian dish. It has been around for centuries, and Italians continue to enjoy it today! Literally, the word “antipasto” is derived from the Latin root “anti” which means “before” and “pastus” which means “meal.” Translation? The “antipasto” course simply refers to the dish that precedes all others. Now you know! What’s the Difference Between Antipasti and Antipasto? Antipasti is simply the plural form of antipasto!...

Boiling them for only a couple of minutes ensures that the asparagus will be cooked through, but still crisp and vibrant green. Asparagus should have a gentle crunch to them; they should not be mushy. A little lemon zest helps brighten the natural flavor of the asparagus, and the Parm and olive oil? Well, of course, they make everything taste good. Tips for Cleaning Asparagus It’s always important to clean fresh produce before preparing it....
