October 19, 2017We had a guest taster today. Her name is Audrey and we hope that she will join us in cooking recipes and then critiquing them.
Ruby used Week Night Wonders cookbook.
Page 32- Sweet and Savory Carrot Salad with Orange and Dates-(Front middle cup)- recipe was easy to follow, not expensive to make and taste was a unanimous GOOD. Audrey suggested using baby carrots instead of full grown carrots for a more consistant taste.
Page 68- Shot Gun Wedding Soup-(Left Back blue and white bowl)- easy to follow, not expensive and tatse a unanimous VERY GOOD. Audrey suggested that the spinach leaves be cut in bite size pieces and I agree with that.
Page 283-Two Minute Coconut Sherbert-(front left cup)- easy to follow, not expensive and taste was not unanimous. Ruby said WOW, Audrey said VERY GOOD and I said GOOD.
Ruby will use this cookbook again, she really likes it.
I used The Complete America Test Kitchen TV Show Cookbook.
Page 301-Pasta Alla Norina-(bak right bowl)- easy to follow, not expensive and taste was a unanimous VERY GOOD.
Page 416-Beef Empanadas-(back middle dish)- easy to follow, not expensive and taste was not unanimous. Ruby said VERY Good, Audrey said VERY GOOD and I said GOOD. Audrey liked it because it was not so spicy, I said it needed more spice.
Page 477- Indian Flatbread-(front right dish)- easy to follow, not expensive and taste was not unanimous. Ruby said WOW, Audrey said VERY GOOD and I said VERY GOOD. You need to plan ahead if you want to amke this recipe and I would add a litttle salt.
