Over here, in another thread, @jedovaty mentioned Brazilian pão de queijo and reminded me that I picked up a packet of frozen, bake-at-home mini pães at the farmers market a while back.

These are the cassava root flour type and are cheesy, chewy and salty. I added a drizzle of Mike's Hot Honey and enjoyed with a tangerine & black coffee.

I hadn't considered those might be in the local-to-me farmer's markets, I'll keep an eye out once the shut in is lifted! Do you know if they used cassava flour, soured starch (polvilho azedo), or tapioca flour/starch? BTW, if you've never had soured starch.. it is a feast for the nostrils worthy of any dog. yuuuucccckkkkkk 🤢. Surprisingly, it cooks up delicious!

Looks delicious.

Just to inform folks, this is cilbir (Turkish eggs might also refer to menemen).

The ingredient list on the package says cassava root starch. Maybe try contacting them via their website for more info?

Spicy Green beans with pork in a black bean sauce. Over rice.

I had one of these apple squares with my morning coffee.

Fried rice made in a totally unauthentic manner with long grain (Tilda) rice, kielbasa, and asparagus. Showcasing my Darto pan.

@blue_dolphin – so freaking weird! I have had a bag of pão de queijo in my freezer for a few months. I saw them in the grocery store and was intrigued. I finally made them a few weeks ago and wasn’t impressed – they were very bland. I happened to mention them to a friend who is an incredible cook and has even taught cooking classes. I asked if she’d ever had them and what she thought. She had (of course) eaten them. Actually IN Brazil. She loves them and offered to send me a recipe, which I received Saturday – the day you posted your message about them. I can't wait to try them. A question, though: is tapioca flour the same as tapioca starch?

Breakfast this morning was an improvisation. Toasted thin-sliced ATK sandwich bread, spread with Salmon cream cheese and sprinkled with Trader Joe’s Everything Bagel seasoning and an IP hard cooked egg:

That toast was great. Not exactly an ET bagel and lox, but close enough in taste that this qualifies as a wonderful breakfast or snack!

House made bread, toasted (there was butter on the table). A couple of lovely cheeses. Cara Cara orange and an apple.

Potatoes fried in bacon drippings and hot dogs cooked in CSO steam bake 350 for 15 minutes.

Kim Shook · April 21, 2020

Yesterday's breakfast of salmon cream cheese and ET bagel seasoning was so good, I had two of them today:

I will probably be having this for awhile now. I'm the only one who eats smoked salmon and I just started another loaf of the ATK bread a few minutes ago. I won't post it anymore, I promise. LOL

1/2 a BLT on toasted white bread with some Miracle Whip.

The other half is going with us for John's lunch as we check a bluebird trail for nesting birds.

Made John gluten-free pancakes for his blueberries and maple syrup.

Shakshuka. Served with tahini, schug, pickles, olives.

Opted to add some sirene and zaatar to our regular salad.

I have to shakshuka recpies, for different seasons.

This one is for pepper season (winter & spring). It mostly consists of bell and mild chili peppers, some OKish tomatoes, lots of chilly. It is long cooked, so it has a deeper flavor. Spiced with ample paprika, cumin, some coriander seeds a hint of caraway.

I always serve it with tahini. Leftover sauce makes for awesome sandwiches with scrambled or fried eggs.

Recipe below (might be a bit outdated).

The summer version is made with tomatoes and hot chilies only, some garlic and paprika. Cooked briefly, so the tomatoes don't break down, and finished with cumin and sumac. I serve it with sirene or tahini.

For today's Instagram Apéro Hour, David Lebovitz made hot chocolate so I did, too: Chocolat Chaud from Drinking French.

Served in one of my grandmothers Limoges chocolate cups. I'm now on a sugar high and better go wash the floors before I crash!

That is so beautiful! It reminds me of my Limoges, but is obviously much older and lovelier. My cups and saucers are all packed away but here is the creamer from my pattern:
