@heyheymama and I are undertaking a ‘Baking Deep-Dive’ in 2021 as a bit of a COVID diversion, and to learn something new that we hadn’t studied before. This is our first attempt at a swiss roll with a decorative paste inlay.

And on Labor Day…aka ‘National Coffee Ice Cream Day’, note the homemade coffee ice cream on the side. :coffee::coffee::coffee:

Years ago I learned about this technique from a Japanese magazine. I LOVE it! Yours turned out wonderful!

Pan fried gnocchi with asparagus and home-grown green beans. Seasoned with shallots, garlic, parsley, and lemon zest.

Very bright and tasty.

I followed this recipe pretty closely, other than:

  • cooking the shallots, then adding the garlic
  • cooking the gnocchi in a separate pan in parallel with the veggies.

My 3yo loves to cook with us, so we made a homemade apple pie from the NYT cooking blog. Breyer’s vanilla to top it off :slight_smile:

First time making my own burger buns and they were fantastic! The only change I would make next time is to make seven buns instead of six. They were massive. I used Joshua Weissman’s recipe.

On the food network I think they would use the fancy term “deconstructed”. :slight_smile:

What are your thoughts on the Recteq? How long have you had it? I’ve been looking at one after a friend of mine happened to get one and she really loves hers.
