Cornmeal Pancakes: Sweet or Savory

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jun 26, 2012 at 9:17pm

I love recipes like this, pared down to their most basic elements, pure of flavor and intent. You can find a million recipes for cornmeal pancakes, made soft with wheat flour, fluffy with baking soda, sweet with sugar.

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jun 12, 2013 at 9:48am

Browned butter (beurre noisette), is having its moment in the spotlight for good reason.

Tomato Soup & Flatbread

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Mar 12, 2010 at 7:45pm

Minnesota is butt-ugly in March, there’s just no other way to say it. Mud-covered ice just sucks, although fog-covered snirt bites too. (I love using those words. That felt good.)             Yeah, it’s time for some color. Time to buy a bunch of tulips (yellow!), time to make tomato soup…
