Grapefruit flambé avec la vodka
Really old-school and easy with a fun grown-up twist! In junior high home-ec class we learned to make these -sans the liquor. For the flambe part we put them on cookie trays and slid them into a gas oven for the broiler flames to do the trick. They were intended to be a breakfast accompaniment but I was so proud of my newly learned skill I couldn't wait for a breakfast opportunity so I served it as a dessert that night. My mother was a nurse on the evening shift and often times it was only my dad and I at the dinner table and most of the time he did the cooking. I had wanted so badly to impress him with my own ability and I knew I was really going to knock his socks off with this. That night I prepped the grapefruit and sprinkled the tops of the fruit with way, way more than enough sugar…I was a teenager after all. Because there was so much sugar it really flamed-up quickly - a nice crispy black top on the grapefruit halves! Of course my dad said it was the best thing he'd ever eaten - I know better now - but I did get to whirl and twirl around for awhile as Queen of the Kitchen.
Perfect Corn Muffin Mix
Way back in 1996, when the Magnolia Bakery opened on Bleecker Street, before cupcake-mad crowds packed every inch of the place, it actually served breakfast. At tables. These muffins, no longer served at the bakery, are relics from that time, incomparable in flavor and butteriness. Most mixes include lard, which I don't mind in principle, but don't want to eat in its shelf-stable form.
Goat Milk Ricotta Cheese
Making your own ricotta cheese is ridiculously simple. In this recipe, switched it up by using fresh goat milk, which you can get in most grocery stores now.
White Chocolate Mmmmocha
Stop using fake creamer and try this. It's way better and better for you!
Rye and Cornmeal Muffins With Caraway
I like to serve these savory muffins, whose flavors are reminiscent of black bread and pumpernickel, with hearty borscht-type soups, smoked fish or cheese.
Carrot Apple Ginger Juice with Meyer Lemon
I've been enjoying variations of this Carrot Apple Ginger Lemon Juice recipe for years and it's one of my favorite ways to use fresh carrots. Cheers!
Carrot Cake Muffins
These spicy whole-grain muffins are just sweet enough, unlike most cloying carrot cakes. And these are packed with carrots.
Yogurt Without a Machine
This is the traditional method of my family from India.
Homemade Yogurt with Salton Yogurt Maker Instructions
The instructions that come with the Salton Yogurt Maker give recipes s for a few types of homemade yogurt, and it’s easy to use them to experiment with flavors.
Breakfast reform
Thanks to Jessica Tom I have just tried cooking teff to make her wonderful pudding recipe (really great, btw). At the market I had found both teff flour and teff grain. Going with teff grain (right choice), I was then struck by how really tiny these grains are. I was also a little suspicious that they would taste...well, you know, good for you, but really not that good. But, the flavor and texture both deliver....and I mean good for you and really good tasting! I think I have just made a new best friend!
Perfect Hot Chocolate
Whole milk, unsweetened cocoa powder and luscious dark chocolate liquefy together to become what is undoubtedly the Perfect Hot Chocolate recipe.
Brody’s Cranberry-Pumpkin Muffins
Cardamom Hot Chocolate
We've always been fans of cardamom and chocolate, and this hot chocolate recipe reminds us why. The tiny bit of butter adds richness for a well-rounded treat.
Te Helado
For this te helado recipe, you'll make refreshing ice tea with one cup of lemon. Serve in a glass with ice or chilled and sweetened with sugar of choice.
Cinnamon Amaretto Syrup
This cinnamon amaretto syrup recipe is one of the first that I made. It's sweet and makes you feel warm inside. It's great over waffles on cold winter days!
Mango Lassi (with Cardamom)
A mango lassi (blended mango nectar with plain yogurt and cardamom) will do well to cool and focus the mind.
Cardamom Chai Tea
I am a tea lover, and I met a co-worker from Pakistan, who used Cardamom as a spice. He gave me some, and I put it in my tea, added milk, and honey, and felt the calming effect on my mind. This drink became my energizer in the morning, when I wanted to get through the day calmly, and it smells sweet. I later tried store brought Chai tea, but this is a more authentic, and exotic version of Chai. You could take this recipe anywhere, which makes it especially good for a fast pace lifestyle. Enjoy!

Eggs with Chervil, Feta & Heirloom Tomatoes
Creamy Greek Yogurt
This is one of my favorite must-have ingredient in our house. I love the whole process, from the actual making of the yogurt to straining it for the thick creamy result. It is as rewarding as the smell of baked cookies and a well-risen loaf of bread. I use this for everything: breakfast, snack, appetizer dishes, and also makes a fabulous substitute for sour cream.
My best finger lime recipe
Finger limes are a new arrival at the Santa Monica Farmers' market. They are an extremely resin-y version of lime, with small vescicles that pop like caviar. I thought they might taste good with gin. I was right.
Post-holiday Clementine Cocktail
After the holidays I usually end up with too many clementines in my kitchen. This drink is brings a nice, light, citrus kick to a cold and dreary January.
Bloody ginger
The first drink that I made with my new bottle of Domaine de Canton was this; it was New Year's Day.
Scrambled Ricotta with Chorizo and Bell Pepper
The best thing after a long night of celebration is the big breakfast. I wanted to step out of the typical breads, eggs and bacon breakfast but still keep it satisfying; then I remembered my Indian teacher’s variations in using Ricotta- a great substitute for scrambled eggs. For the vegetarians out there: opt out the meat and put more veggies.
Apple a Day Toddy
Everyone has heard the old adage: an apple a day keeps the doctor away. During the winter months some of us drink a medicinal toddy every now and then, and I think this variation on the classic imparts an extra level of warmth thanks to the addition of ginger liqueur. The fresh apple cider keeps the flavor bright and, if they're available where you live, use Bittercube blackstrap bitters. The extra bite is a welcome addition, but is not strictly necessary.
