Dried Cherry Biscuits with Lemon Curd

By

These are a sweet take on my usually savory biscuits such as the fennel-pepper biscuits that I made for our Befana feast. And I love that one bowl and 25 minutes later we have a warm, fresh-baked breakfast.

4 C white whole wheat flour
2 t baking powder
1 t pink Himalaya salt
4 eggs
1 t pure vanilla extract
1/3 C organic brown sugar, packed
1/2 C olive oil
1/2 C warm water
1/2 C dried tart cherries

Mix all dry ingredients. Make a well. Add eggs, oil. vanilla, and warm water to the mixture. Pour into flour mixture. Mix well. Knead dough. Add cherries. Form into biscuits, placing them in a buttered pan. Bake in a 425 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden.

Slather these with a tart lemon-ginger curd or any other jam you prefer.

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...
