I've made lots of chocolate chip cookies in my life, but these are THE BEST I HAVE EVER MADE.
They flavor is good, if you want a stronger flavor I'd suggest adding a little more vanilla.
The texture is exactly what it claims to be. Crunchy outside, chewy middles.
I added slightly more flour because it seemed a bit runny, then I chilled in the fridge for just 30 minutes and used 1/8 measuring cups for smaller cookies. Rolled them in my hands, patted them down a bit and placed them on foil lined cookie sheets for 14 minutes. Perfect.
Really good recipe for a twist on hummus. I would decrease the amount of tahini and use chopped fresh basil. Whole different experience fresh basil in this is. I also added sun dried tomatoes for a bit of tangy sweetness, but that's just a personal preference.
Absolutely, HANDS DOWN, the BEST gucamole recipe EVER. I actually learned this recipe from a few waiter friends I knew that worked at this AMAZING Mexican joint. The key, and I seriously mean this, is good avocados. This is ALL ABOUT the avocados. Don't bother to use this recipe if you don't have good, creamy, ripe ones. It will turn out chalky and unpleasant. If your avocados aren't ripe yet, stick them in newspaper with a banana in a cupboard for a few days. If you insist on using bad avocados I would suggest adding some sour cream and a couple of teaspoons of olive oil and they should improve the taste.
This was ok, but bland. I decided to try it because I'm Arab and not a big fan of this dish (shak shooka) the way we make it, but this is very bland in comparison to the way we make it at home.
If you want to give it a kick add onions with the garlic then some mild to hot green peppers (depending on your liking) then season with cumin. That's how we make it here in Egypt and, more specifically, my house.
This is an EXCELLENT recipe. I did make a few changes though so I'll list those before I tell you what I liked about this recipe. I cut down the sugar to only two tablespoons for a less sugary challah. I also used only a third cup of vegetable oil and used only 3 eggs but omitted the yolks. My challah was very soft and moist, almost velvety on the inside, with just a slight crunch on the outside.
I made this into one large 6 braid challah and brushed with only egg. Then I dipped my finger in water, then into the sesame seeds and gave each segment a roll of sesame for a more even look.
Overall this was SUPERB and I have already been asked to make it for a baker friend of mine who wants to feature it in her bakery!
I cannot tell you how AMAZING this bread is. 3 loaves were gone in under a day and a half! It is crunchy on the outside, soft and moist on the inside and filled with all these lovely bubbly craters! I replaced the milk with water and just baked on a greased and floured baking sheet and it was still wonderful. I cannot rate this recipe highly enough. I served with olive tapenade and caprese salad for appetizers and it was wonderful. My fiance and family could not get enough of it! They beg for it EVERYDAY. Will certainly make again and again and again!
First, the sponge is amazing. Tastes just as good after only sitting for a few hours as it does after 24+. I made it once and left it for 24 hours in a cool place and that made nice fluffy bread without many air pockets. The second time i made the sponge I left it right next to a warm stove top and it rose very quickly and made these HUGE air pockets in my finished product. I only left this for 4 hours but the taste and texture were FANTASTIC and the sponge almost spilled over the rim of the bowl! It was a bit difficult to get out of the bowl because of its stickiness but that was to be expected. For those that thought the sponge needed water, it doesn't. It will look just like a clump of dough in the beginning but if you leave it you'll be pleasantly surprised with a bubbling, frothy, sticky sponge.
Secondly, I made this recipe cautiously because I expected it to be very difficult to handle, but it was not.
This is a really good recipe if you're tired of plain ole English Breakfast. I make a coffee similar to this and the flavours are wonderful, but you have to like these ingredients to enjoy this tea. Also Chai means tea, so chai tea mix is like saying tea tea mix. Anyway good recipe, will make again!
I was about to post a recipe very similar to this that I got from my mother but I found this one instead. I did try this one and honestly did NOT like it. I can't imagine why anyone would want to eat such a sweet salad.
My recipe includes lettuce, mayo, yogurt, apple chunks and almonds and does not include sugar. My family ADORES this salad this way. It's quite similar to the one they have at Chick-fil-A as one reviewer mentioned.
I used yogurt and cut down the mayo in this recipe. My fiance likes chopped apples in his potato salad so I did that and it gave it a nice sweetness. I've also never used regular onions in potato salad and used scallions (spring onions) instead. All in all a good recipe, pretty basic really and a crowd pleaser.
I make a similar recipe but decided to try these. They're good but not as good as the one I got from my mother. These were a bit dry and hard to work with, whereas if you omit the flour altogether you get easy to handle drop cookie dough and it's SUCCULENT and gooey to perfection.
I loved this stuff. I used whole spices though, roasted them together on dry pan until you could smell the aroma and then ground them all up. Was perfect on chicken tandoori and pulav.
