  1. @blue_dolphin i did make the dish Baked Sweet Potato Maple Crème Fraîche. I baked up two sweet potatoes but made the full recipe for the dressing. I divided the dressing between the spuds and while the dressing is delicious, I'd say the full dressing recipe was too much. But thanks for posting this as I will make it again.
  2. Alas, not on Amazon.ca
  3. I have all the ingredients for this. I am making this as a side. Thanks @blue_dolphin ,

    Jiffy love

    Count me in as a Jiffy person. I used to pick it up whenever we went south of the border as i couldn't find it here. Haven't done that now in a long while now, but I've put it on my list and will look for it next time I'm out.
  5. Is there any reason to not chill the ice cream custard in the freezer? Assuming you give it the odd stir?
  6. When possible, I make applesauce and freeze it in the portion sizes we use. We normally (pre-pandemic) have a family gathering in the fall and my SIL would bring me a batch of apples from their wild trees. They'd get chucked in the pot skins and all and after they are cooked, put through a food mill, catching the bad bits. Such wonderful applesauce! It is sweet but has no added sugar and a lovely rosy hue. Wonderful stuff.
  7. But would that have an impact on the texture of the cookie?
  8. Yum. I've never made them but I do like them. Will she part with her recipe?
  9. I love peanut butter but don't love peanut butter cookies. The trouble with all the ones I have had is that they are so sweet they make my teeth ache. If anyone has a recipe for peanut butter cookies that are not overly sweet and would like to share their recipe, I'd happily make them.

    V8

    I too am a Clamato fan, especially the spicy one. V8 not so much.
  11. I just made some muffins and took the picture below. I use it for any loose batter/dough (e.g. pancakes, yorkshire pudding) as it makes really short work of mixing. It works really well on wet bread doughs such as foccacia and no-knead dough.
  12. Yes indeed. I think every kitchen should have one.
  13. They're great, aren't they? My current one has a wooden handle also but the wood has split. I just ordered an all-metal one.
  14. If you don't have one, you need one of these. https://www.amazon.com/Jillmo-Danish-Dough-Whisk-Stainless/dp/B083532915/ref=sxin_7_ac_d_mf_rf?ac_md=5-2-U2lsdmVy-ac_d_rf&crid=9URWROJUQGUV&cv_ct_cx=danish+dough+whisk&dchild=1&keywords=danish+dough+whisk&pd_rd_i=B083532915&pd_rd_r=a3112516-069a-4263-a22b-91a860855d9c&pd_rd_w=OcUM5&pd_rd_wg=gX3bU&pf_rd_p=89fa575a-c44e-401e-be03-82c92ec5e029&pf_rd_r=XVBMZ184BM1P5P9WQFN5&psc=1&qid=1620231241&sprefix=Danish+%2Caps%2C203&sr=1-3-89f8c401-73d8-4caf-b340-e9b34f2a8bae
  15. A cousin of mine and his wife came for a visit a few years ago from Holland. They couldn't believe the size of the meat portions they were served in restaurants. It was way more than they were used to.
  16. That's the one we had when we had the house. You'll love it.
  17. Thanks. My peel skills suck too.
  18. Do you bake it on what looks like a pizza stone?
  19. Her mango ice cream was really good. I couldn't find her recommended brand but the one I did use had a 5% sugar content so not tooth-achingly sweet.
  20. Ordered today.
  21. I have had a Thermomix for a number of years and I hardly ever use it. I will occasionally use it to make one particular dish, a risotto, but I have found the Instant Pot does a great job of that. I just registered on the Cookidoo site and maybe having a good look at that will inspire me to use the machine more. Thanks, @EatingBen, for your post. It may have given me the nudge I needed.
  22. Did you check the water temperature?
  23. All this is very impressive.
