Coco-Red Bean MOffins

By

So, that is not a typo.  I do not mean 'muffin.' Mochi + Muffin = MOffins.  When my friend posted a recipe for MOffins, I was out of rice flour.  But after Chinese New Year I had both rice flour and leftover red bean filling from my mooncakes.  So this was a 'must try' this morning...with my typical variations, of course...especially since I didn't have any matcha powder.

3 eggs
1/2 C canola oil
2 cups milk
1/2 C organic granulated sugar
1 T baking powder
2 t ground ginger powder
1 box of rice flour (I actually didn't have a whole box because I had used 1 C for my mooncakes.  I substituted some coconut flour)

Mix the eggs and oil.  Then mix everything else except for red beans.  Pour half the batter into muffin cup, add about teaspoon of red beans, top it off with more batter. Bake for about 30 minutes at 375˚F till the top of the MOffin is slightly browned.

    Wow, this recipe sounds really neat. I like the idea of using rice flour to make these and, of course, I'm crazy about red bean filling. It looks really good. I bet the rice flour gives them a nice chewy texture.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

By
photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams. Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream

By
As we headed inland from the coast, I cringed as the temperature gauge in the car for outside temp climbed into the triple digits. Ugh. I'm a rather wimpy central coastal Californian who begins to wilt when it's 70 degrees outside. Thank goodness for air conditioning and a planned ice cream stop. When I parked the car outside Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. We knew that we still had to get to the campsite...and set up our tents in the heat. But we were going to enjoy the cool, sweet treats from Frozen Art first! Michoacana ice creameries are the equivalent of Starbucks in Mexico; they're ubiquitous. Purists, however, claim that operating a true Michoacana ice cream shop require ties to Tocumbo. It's estimated that almost ninety percent of the Tocumban population is currently employed in the ice cream business from making ice cream itself to making equipment. But the real art of Tocumban ice creams: imaginat...
