So, What Did You Make?
It was just us two newlyweds with a paella pan we received as a wedding gift. We produced a Spanish feast. The first course was shrimp balls with cilantro aioli, followed by a traditional paella (meat only). We finished the meal with almond milk custards. Delicious! Though, at some point, I was homesick and craving my aunt's sausage stuffing.
Cook the Book: 'Baked, New Frontiers in Baking'
I loved ice box cake, the one made with chocolate wafers and whipped cream (or whipped topping). And no, I have not outgrown it. In fact, when I was home in Denver this past summer, I searched through my childhood book collection for The Better Homes and Gardens Junior Cookbook so I could make it for my husband. Unfortunately, I could not find the cookbook.
Cook the Book: 'Martha Stewart's Cooking School'
In the 1980s, Martha Stewart had a beautiful menus cookbook, the name of which escapes me. It was filled with lots of beauty shots and great recipes, including her buttermilk fried chicken. But my favorite recipe of hers, found in that book, was a salad composed of avocados drenched in a warm tomato dressing. So delicious! Unfortunately, that cookbook is at my mom's house and we constantly tussle over who should have it (she, who does not cook regularly, or me, who does).
