water-bath method IS the way. Maybe.

So last week I decided to make pudding. Japanese style which Ive gotten the recipe from www.about.com It was fairly easy honestly... But the weird thing is, it calls for steaming rather than water-bath. Ive never heard of steaming pudding before. Nonetheless, I tried it. Before steaming. It's sad...

I have banana nut muffins fresh from the oven sitting in my office and I’m claiming it’s due to my insomnia, but really it’s because I’m trying to rid my cabinets of the cake and muffin mixes I’m unsure why I bought in the first place. It’s so unnerving, moving food, so I’m attempting...

Chocolate Waffle Cookies

My mother-in-law gets a bi-monthly magazine called Reminisce, and when she finishes with them, she passes them along to me. Among other cool articles, these magazines are packed with nice full-colour recipe cards, one of which I am about to "toot my own trumpet" about. This is from the...

Magnolia Bakery Cupcakes

My favorite cupcake bakery in New York is Magnolia Bakery. They are little cups of heaven. I used to think my favorite kind was vanilla with chocolate frosting (the same as my favorite kind of cake, in general) but after trying the Vanilla/Vanilla ones I've decided those are my favorites. I also...

I've Got Twin Lobsters

The girls got to their positions at the hotdog stand half an hour early on Sunday. Of course, when we dropped them off they were fighting over who would carry what. Instead of one of them carrying the two bags with the small cupcakes and another taking the big box with the banana cake, both of them...

Small update! Sakura usher in Spring.

March was a laid-back month, though still quite chilly this year. Some of the things I did included: Going to Dai & Yuka's. Olivia, Yuka and I made cookies and chatted, and Dave played golf with the guys then assisted in eating the cookies! ;) We all played cards before going home! I think the game...

Why do I love bread soooo much?

Ok, so it's not much of an update--I've been busy, yo! As clearly much of the rest of my neighborhood has been judging by the lull in posts lately. Last night after working out--lifting weights like a weakling--I stopped by Central Market and ordered a little margherita pizza to go for dinner. While...

Macaroons, green tea

I don't have time to really post now, but wanted to get a pic up of the macaroons. I decided to add a bit of matcha powder (thank you Auntie Mae!) to the batch and they were such a nice delicate flavor, and nice and green for Spring. My friend BD still prefers the plain coconut ones, but I am fond...

Seafood Crêpes

I normally do these with shrimp, but this time I tried salmon. As much as I love salmon, I'd say I definitely prefer shrimp, though. The Béchamel-style sauce gets its flavors from butter, onions, scallions, celery, cream, lemon (or in this case, lime) juice and cayenne pepper, so the flavors of...

Fruits of the Farmer's Market (and a day of doughy hands)

Yesterday I went by the Union Square farmers' market to see whether anyone had anything particularly interesting now that it's sort of spring. There were new things like flowers and baby herbs to buy, and the one farmer who always has interesting greens, Gorzynsky, looked like he had had plenty...

Baking Fun

Sienna and I really had too much fun getting the kitchen dirty and using every bowl, pot and pan we own. hehe! It's the only way to bake. We have been invited to a Passover dinner, and were asked to bring dessert. So i found a article in a Martha Stewart Living Magazine that was all about Passover...

Angel food cake and strawberries

My all time favorite dessert ever; Angel food cake, strawberries and whipped cream. BUT, I have to be all "calorie watchy" so I used cool whip instead of whipped cream. Hell yes:
