Buttery Dinner Rolls

by Pam on November 27, 2012

I brought these rolls to a friends house for dinner recently. I tried a recipe I found on The Baker Chick’s^[1] site that looked easy and delicious. Unfortunately, I ran out of time so I couldn’t let the rolls rise as much as I would have liked but they still turned out really delicious and everyone liked them.

Place all dough ingredients into the bread machine pan in the order listed making sure to only use 1 egg. Select the dough cycle and press start. Once the bread machine stops (it was one and a half hours on my machine). Grease a 9×13 glass baking dish or large round Dutch oven or baking pan. Divide dough into 12-15 pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Place 2 inches apart in the baking dish.

Cover with a clean dish cloth (don’t use plastic wrap). Let rise in a warm place 45 to 60 minutes or until doubled in size.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, beat remaining egg until blended; brush onto rolls. Bake until golden brown, about 17-20 minutes, rotating pans back to front and top to bottom halfway through. Melt 1-2 tablespoons of butter in the microwave; add the minced garlic, stir until well combined. Brush the garlic butter over the top of the rolls; sprinkle with sea salt. Let rolls cool 10 minutes before serving.

Holiday Recipes

The holiday season involves a number of luxuries, from nice gifts, to comfortable traditions, and, perhaps most importantly, food. It seems that, come Christmas, people go to great lengths to find new and appealing recipes with which to impress friends and families. To some, this can be as simple as looking into Christmas hampers from Marks & Spencer^[1], which often offer a number of specialty food and drinks; however, for others, it can mean learning how to cook and prepare exciting new dishes that go well with the holidays and can be enjoyed by a number of different people. For the latter type, there are a number of websites online that specialize in sharing holiday recipes.

One example of one of these helpful websites is epicurious.com, which has an interesting and broad selection of recipes specifically designed to go well with the holidays. For example, their porchetta dish offers an interesting alternative to the somewhat more traditional Christmas meat dishes of turkey or roast beef. The dish is pork based, and is prepared to offer a seasoned, almost crispy skin-on outer layer, with juicier meat at the center. This is a fantastic option as a centrepiece for any Christmas meal, or even for a different meal during the holiday season.

There are also a number of recipes listed on epicurious.com that are more geared toward desserts and holiday treats than main courses. For example, one of the most highly rated options on the website is a decadent-looking zeppole with chocolate sauce. Essentially, these are light, small powdered donuts that can be great to offer to a group of people. With a number of these in a bowl and a dish of chocolate sauce available, an entire group can enjoy a unique dessert together, which some find more appealing than indulging on different sorts of pies and cakes.

There are of course thousands of other recipes available online and indeed in cookbooks and kitchen advice publications all over the world. Due to the nature of the holiday season as a time of comfort and luxury, holiday recipes are an extremely popular topic in the world of culinary expertise. In fact, this is one of the most consistent portions of cooking, as the holidays come every year and many people – though they enjoy their traditions and like to stand by what’s good – never stop looking for the next great meal. All it takes is a little bit of research, and you can find this meal just about anywhere.

Crab and Artichoke Dip

by Pam on November 7, 2012

We had friends over to watch the election coverage and we had a smorgasbord of appetizers to munch on through the night. I made this crab and artichoke dip and served it with crostini. It took only a few minutes to make and tasted fantastic. This dip had a great combination of flavors and textures – cheesy, creamy, salty, and delicious.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a baking dish with cooking spray.

Add the crab, chopped artichoke hearts, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, and minced garlic together in a bowl. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Pour into the prepared baking dish.

Place into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden on the top. Serve with crostini, crackers, or tortilla chips. Enjoy.
