First, my go - to shortbread recipe (essentially the recipe below without matcha, and with various additions depending on what I feel like) is only about half of what I
see in a lot of recipes, calling for one stick of butter instead of two, one cup of flour instead of two, etc. etc., and yielding about 24 cookies instead of 48.
It is my understanding that they are used
interchangeably in a lot of recipes on a 1:1 basis, with honey obviously being the preferred choice because it is less refined and contains more minerals.
As you may remember from some of my other recipes, like this Peach Praline Ice Cream, I use full fat coconut
milk in a lot of my recipes (the cans, not the cartons).
Saffron, a beautiful colored and aromatic spice that is used as an
ingredient in a lot of recipes, could be used as a strong and beautiful name for a baby girl.
Hi Ella, I have Addison's disease and am adding a lot of your recipes into my diet in a bid to reduce my steroid intake if my consultant thinks it is safe to do so of course... I have a nut allergy, almonds are a total no go for me and
appear in a lot of your recipes along with other nuts.
Often times I buy a rotisserie chicken to use in this dish, but since I tend to use shredded
chicken in a lot of my recipes, I think I am going to start buying my chicken in larger packages and using this handy little time saving trick I saw over at The Pinning Mama for shredding my chicken, and then freeze dinner size portions to pull out as I need it.
You will find me subbing Greek
yogurt in a lot of recipes around here — I like to bake with it, I like to throw it in pasta sauces, even tuna salad but if you ever eat my chicken salad, you can rest assured that it's mayo in there, always, no questions asked.
You can use your seitan in place of
meat in lots of recipes, or start with a recipe developed specifically for seitan.
Oftentimes I will make recipes (like this one) with tapioca flour — it works as a great
substitute in a lot of recipes that would otherwise include breadcrumbs.
You know that cassava flour is a favorite around here, because it most closely mimics white
flour in lots of recipes, but there is a learning curve.
As you may remember from some of my other recipes, like this Peach Praline Ice Cream, I use full fat coconut
milk in a lot of my recipes (the cans, not the cartons).
In this recipe you can switch the dates for honey, but
in lots of the recipes they're essential as they stick the whole thing together!
Hi Ella, I can't wait to try this recipe out, but I wondered if you had a one for almond butter, as I see you use
it in a lot of your recipes?
Please let me know, as I want to use
this in a lot of your recipes, and don't know if they're the same thing.
