I originally tagged this post as "Indian" but when I searched for "biryani" on Wikipedia I realized that calling it Indian is about as accurate as calling rice Chinese. Biryani has been adapted by many countries and all the variations sound delicious (although I'd...
Please sit down because I have something very important to say to you: you must make this dish as soon as humanly possible. Are you at work? Feign illness and leave immediately. Don't like beans? Get over it. Why do I feel so strongly about this recipe? ...
Buy. This. Book. Why? Because I think it will give you some nifty tricks and deceptively simple morsels to serve to friends or family. Because the recipes are recognizable favorites, stripped, for the most part, of their processed components, and yet still...
This salad was part of the Chicken Potpie menu and complemented it perfectly. What with the apples in the potpie and the cranberries in this salad it had a nice note of Fall running through the whole meal. I absolutely LOVE salad and could eat it for dinner every...
One of the reasons I made this dish is that Pam Anderson's daughter, Maggy, said it was one of her favorites from the book. And I can see why. But can I just ask: when did pearl onions become an endangered species? I went to three stores and could not find them...
Pam says that the whipped cream traditionally used in mousse dulls the flavor of the chocolate and I have to believe she's right because this mousse tastes like a truffle. The vanilla ice cream on the side is meant to compensate for the cream not being in the...
This was a delicious and easy lasagna although not much quicker than my usual. I've never used cream cheese in a lasagna before and I'm sure it will make purists sniff with disdain but hey, it works. I made the vegetarian version with mushrooms and spinach as well...
I always forget that I like beets, and you should too (like them that is, not forget about them). They're sooooo delicious and I'm sure they're full of things like antioxidants, or probiotics, or carbon offsets or something beneficial. I'm giving you a...
I worried about this cookie at several points during its creation. It was liked a troubled child who manages to pull it all together at some point and ends up a fine, upstanding adult (I can relate). My first issue was that you are supposed to bake the two...
Talk about bang for your buck. These are ridiculously simple and so very, very delicious. They require no baking and not only can they be made ahead but they must be made ahead. The recipe calls for assembling the tartlets in foil muffin cups but when I realized...
Yum yum yum. I made this and had my mom and her boyfriend, Rudy (my photography life-coach) over for dinner and everyone loved this dish. Special thanks to my neighbor, Jennifer, who saved me from having to make a THIRD trip to the store by hooking me up...
Pam Anderson is one of my favorite cookbook authors. She tends to steer you towards home-made and from-scratch but with empathy for the fact that no one is paying you to cook this stuff, so your time is limited. Just thumbing through this book I can tell it's a...
Not worth much if you can't print.
No where in the recipe does it say to add the pecans!
I have made this recipe many times and love it. will be cooking for a gluten free friend. will use…
Fairly easy, if you have an iPhone and Adobe Acrobat just touch the green button at the top of recipe…
Not worth much if you can't print. My first post
