If you have never made cheese before homemade ricotta is such a great place to start. It is so easy and fresh, really fresh ricotta is so different from anything you can buy in a store. You only need basic ingredients, nothing fancy that you have to order off line and when you […]
You know, there was a reason that kings in the Bible ate raisin cakes and honey, right? Those things were considered aphrodisiacs, and with so many wives it probably was one of those things that kings deemed to be necessary.
Valentines Day is one of those holidays that can be very romantic and seductive, but […]
I bet you never expected to see a picture of green beans on Baking Delights, huh?
The thing is, as I share my love of cooking with the people around me, who are mostly my kids, I instinctively pass on bits of information that make huge differences in the end product. I realized last night […]
Well, besides this.
I don’t know about you but I spend way too much time on the computer. Really. I do. I am always looking for new recipes, to see what other people are doing, to see if anyone has left cool comments (hint) and to see if, you know, PBS has emailed me about […]
Annie was so sweet to comment yesterday..and she brought up a good point..it is important to preserve those family recipes AND write the stories that go with them for future generations. So…in light of that..here is my Gramma’s recipe for homemade catsup.

Luckily for him he is 6′6″ and works really hard to […]
A most excellent way to save some money and ensure that you’re getting a quality product as well. Making your own candied orange peel is easy as pie. All you need are orange peel, water and sugar. If you want to get a bit fancy, use orange liqueur. I used the […]
And found these gorgeous candied fruits and flowers from Market Hall Foods (they also carry Mariage Freres teas, BTW). I am seriously craving Michael Recchiuti’s Burnt Caramel Sauce. That stuff is awesome drizzled over a plain cake — heh — or stirred into coffee.

Here’s something that’s enjoyable and frugal at the same time — make your own vanilla extract! I’ve only done it once, using very simple instructions — 1/2 cup of vodka, and pieces of leftover vanilla bean pods (from recipes where I was required to scrape the beans off the pod). I put the […]
