Cookbook
People have often asked me to share recipes for various meals and snacks I’ve served over time, so I’ve started writing down my recipes. This section of my blog covers these recipes in my own personal cookbook. If you want to stay up to date with the latest additions, subscribe to the RSS feed.
Basque-burned Cheesecake
The easiest cheesecake you’ve ever made. Baked quickly and at a high temperature without regard for looking pretty.
Mayonnaise
A simple sauce to go well with everything, though most popular with french fries.
Mushroom Sauce
A savory sauce to be served warm with your dish. Works very well for steaks.
Stewed Beef Salad
A small, hearty salad. Served cold, usually as a side-dish, but also works great as a little snack.
If you use home-made mayonnaise, you can cook the egg whites in a scrambled fasion, and add it to the salad as well. This won’t affect the flavour too much, but will make it a more filling snack, and you won’t have to make meringue again.
Stewed Pears
A sweet dish, commonly served with gamey-meat or stewed meat.
Originally made by my grandmother, this recipe is my attempt to get as close as possible to this little treat.
