This pie crust is the best! It was the first time I ever made quiche and it was perfect!
This quiche is lovely, but next time I would exclude the mayo because it gave the quiche a really weird sweet flavour. I didn't have spinach so I used mushrooms, green capsicum and fried ham. Ten minutes before it finished in the oven, I sprinkled grated cheese and Kraft grated parmesan over the top. It turned out perfect, but like I say. No Mayo.
This pie is fantastic! A definite keeper! I followed the other reviewers advice and used 1/2 cup of juice plus zest of one lemon. The filling was delicious. A perfect blend of tart and sweet. YUMMY!! I poured the filling into the pastry shell while both were still hot and then immediately spread the meringue over the top and sealed off the edges, baking for 15 mins after. No lumps at all and not runny. I let the pie sit at room temp for 30 min and then in the fridge. I often make pavlova, so I used a touch of vinegar in the meringue, 1/2 tblspn corn flour and a couple of drops of vanilla. Add the sugar to meringue slowly and the corn flour helps stiffen it and the vinegar gives it a lovely glossy smooth texture. The only problem is that it is too yummy. LOL.
This pie was very time consuming. It tasted great with the syrup. You have to work fast with the syrup and I found it thickened up too much, so I added a tiny bit more butter and water. I also added 1 tsp each of cinnamon and nutmeg and this enhanced the flavours. I tossed the apples in 3/4 of the syrup and coated the crust with the rest. It didn't flow over the sides like some other reviewers noted and the lattice work needs to be in thick strips. It didn't hold together very well, but it still a wonderful home made pie.
What a delicious salad! I added more ingredients eg: yellow capsicum, sliced mushrooms, small chopped apple and instead of the dressing (because I had no mayo) I used bottled Ranch Dressing instead! Mmmm...flavour explosion!!! Yum!!
This marinade is very tasty. I whipped it up and placed the steaks in it for only half an hour as it was a last minute enhancer. My hubby said it was ok - but he cleaned his plate! I loved it! YUMMY!
These were passable. Nothing fancy. The cookie was too soft when cooked. The dough lacked flavour. Vanilla extract or something similar wouldn't go astray.
EXPERIMENTAL FUN!! The first two times I made this it wasn't much chop. I burnt it. Then forgot the soda. It was so much fun, tho. I felt like a child making candy and just having a blast in the kitchen. Considering this is the first time I've ever tried to make Peanut Brittle, a few failures were a certainty. The trick with my microwave is because it's 1000W is to put it on Medium High. Third time's the charm. And, it tastes lovely. I didn't use the baking sheet as the first two times the brittle stuck to it even tho I had sprayed it with light cooking oil. A plain tray sprayed with oil works fine and I followed another reviewers advice and used 3/4 honey 1/4 water as a substitute for the corn syrup. I'm gonna have funnnn making this one all the time. Thanks Linda!!
YUM!! I've always wanted to learn how to make rum balls. My favourite are ones with mixed fruit as well because it adds flavour and interest in that dark, chocolaty heaven. The sultanas in the mixed fruit soak up the coconut rum that I used. Plus the huge splash of bourbon. I'm used to rum balls being rolled is dessicated coconut. So for the 1 1/2 cups for chopped nuts, I substituted half chopped nuts and half mixed fruits so the measurements were still the same. Had no corn syrup and used honey instead. I've never had rum balls rolled in icing sugar or cocoa, so try it in the dessicated coconut, you won't be disappointed!! Thanks Donna!
This pie turned out great! I used Grandma's Secret Piecrust Recipe from this site and used what I had on hand. Thanks Roberta!
Light and airy, yet moist and yummy. Very sweet.
I am giving this recipe 4 stars only because my hubby gave me at least five comments of how good it was. I thought is just so-so and better prepared fresh as I took it to a birthday party, the juices needed to be drained three times and it looked slightly unappetising. I put the cut up flour tortillas in a muffin pan to create the curve in the chip and it really is time consuming and uses a lot of fruit (remembering that you might need lime for browning apples). I would have given this three stars as it tasted alright, but hubby said it was a good little munch out.
