I learned a lot from my Berlin studio mate, Paula. One of those things was how to make a great curried egg salad. Before Paula gave me the recipe, I didn’t believe that apples and eggs had any reason to keep company. We regularly served this as an appetizer or side dish at our monthly buffets, where we gathered English-speaking artists together for food, drink and conversation. I miss Paula since moving to Bern, but at least I can still make the salad. [...] I like garlic, and I like easy. This recipe definitely fits into both categories. There’s nothing more satisfying than dumping a bunch of ingredients into the blender, turning it on, and pouring out delicious, ready-to-eat, garlicky goodness. Give it a try and I think you’ll see what I mean. A strong dressing like this goes [...] Chopped liver was served as an appetizer at most of our holiday dinners.I loved it from the time I was a kid, unlike my brother who could not be convinced to eat anything besides hot dogs and and french fries. This is my mom’s recipe, though I don’t think she’s made it in 30 years. It’s brutally rich, but I can’t resist recreating it at least once a year. Not for the faint of heart or those who are on a low-cholesterol or low-fat diet. [...] Simple is best, and that’s just as true for chocolate mousse as anything else. There are only five ingredients involved in this recipe, and very little cooking. This was the crowning glory of my mother’s holiday dinners, and event my uncles who had gorged and were groaning with tummies full of meatballs held a small space for my mother’s chocolate mousse. [...] I love carrot cakes, and I experiment almost every time I bake one. The addition of cardamon and the creamy cashew frosting made this one stand out. The recipe is adapted from the the one created by Cheryl Porro, whose devotion to the cupcake genre is impressive. [...] My friend Paula, with whom I shared an art studio for an idyllic two years in Berlin, shared this recipe for bean and rosemary dip with me. It’s become one of my favorite party dips, and this recipe makes a party-sized serving. Making a quarter the amount will provide enough dip to serve four people as an appetizer or side dish at lunch or dinner. [...] |
