A brief follow up to last week’s Beginners Guide to Caviar and Chef B’s list of do’s and dont’s. As promised, the recipe for French Blinis, the small yeast risen pancakes served with caviar. I mean, of course dahhhhhling, toast points are sooooo last year.
Move over orange juice, champagne has a new brunch companion for a snazzy, light brunch cocktail. I give you the Pomosa, champagne pomegranate cocktail. For your next special occasion; think pomegranate.
Nothing like a belly full of warm, spicy Double Berry French Toast in the morning. In my days as an innkeeper in at the Dragonfly Inn, this was a guest favorite. Topped with small, sweet Nova Scotia strawberries and smothered in warm raspberry-maple syrup. Breakfast, it’s the most important meal of the day.
Yea, that just happened, I made a waffle out of leftover stuffing and served a turkey sandwich on it, that’s how white trash I am. Christmas 2011; the year of the Stuffing Waffle Turkey Sandwich. Straight out of the Gypsy Kitchen.
Smooth, dark and super rich, this Chocolate Espresso Truffle Cake is a slab of pure chocolate heaven. It’s also flourless so there’s no pesky carbohydrates, and it’s gluten free. Just a few simple ingredients you probably already have: butter, sugar, chocolate, espresso and eggs, it’s temptation in it’s purest form. You’ve been warned.
Roasted Vegetables with Garlic, Rosemary & Lemon, know at Chez Gypsy as the Ode to Tubers, is a household favorite. The oils from the olive, the lemon and rosemary are old friends; they bond in a familiar kinship to make this simple side dish look amazing, taste terrific and smell fantastic.
This promises to be very bad for your diet. Gingerbread Hot Chocolate made in the French style with cream, coca and real chocolate to make it rich and thick. Then for some seasonal fun we’ve spiced it up to give you a little kick of ginger.
Two recipes adapt in dramatic contrast to create a new personal best. A far east twist on a holiday favorite, Asian Gingerbread Pear Cake is slightly sweet, moist and intense with the bright addition of poached pears for a show-stopping, simple cake; the prefect fit for holiday entertaining.
A Nova Scotia seafood chowder, brimming with chunky bits of sea flesh, it’s good old fashioned Maritime fare. When the snow flies
This week on Food Gypsy promises to be very bad for your diet. Prepare yourselves. Starting with one of the simplest, fastest Blue Cheese Scallion Biscuits I’ve ever come across, I was thrilled with the results. It’s OK, a couple of laps on the mattress will wear these babies off in a hurry.
To be more precise: candied yams, dates & walnuts with yogurt & brandied figs. A happy accident that became dessert
Cranberries, nature’s way of making sure we in northern climes get our vitamin C in the cold winter months; sharp and tangy and a must on the holiday table. Boozy Cranberry-Orange Sauce is extraordinarily easy (and fast) to make, a dash of Grand Marnier and hint of orange in a lovely jar, makes it a beautiful hostess gift.
