The fastest bread

Legit: the Food Charlatan saved my life one night when I had a bread emergency. This is almost that recipe but with a few changes so I can remember what I did to make such great, last-minute, bread.

Chicken Picatta

February 20, 2023

Chicken Picatta is a coveted dish in our family. One of the first my new husband requested after saying that a friend’s girlfriend had made the best picatta he had ever had. Well I took that as a challenge and this is the closest I’ve gotten to the best. It’s pretty close to a cheesecake restaruant’s Chicken Picatta.

That guy I married loves fried rice. I love rice. I also do the cooking and am terrible at portioning rice so I always have extra. This recipe is a win win (win).

A long time ago when I was working long days and had a toddler and an infant at home, cooking elaborite fancy dinners got hard. I was privilaged enough to be able to enlist Blue Apron for help. Some of their recipes were simple, this one was a stand out. Looks fancy, so yummy.

Brother from another mother-ship Meat Pie

October 11, 2022

Let’s talk meat pies. When I was in Leeds for work there was a pie shop called Pieminister. Within that heaven I had a meat pie every afternoon. My all time favorite was “The Mothership” which was any meat pie, with mashed potatoes, minty peas and gravy; in one big delicious pile. I DREAM of these but as I am not from the UK and do not have a Pieminister here so I had to look up the recipe and make them myself. Luckly they’re delightful and provide many amazing meat pie recipes on their blog. Highly suggest a look.
