Carrot Ginger Tea Sandwiches

Posted by ~TigerJo~

This sandwich was part of the Tea we enjoyed at the Empress Hotel in Victoria, BC. I've not been able to find "sweet ginger paste" in this country, so I just grate some fresh ginger and sweeten it. MORE»

Pickled Grapes

(1 reviews) Posted by ~TigerJo~

We had pickled grapes as part of an appetizer that was served at Teatro ZinZanni. These ones don't taste exactly the same as the ones chef Tom Douglas served there, but they're a tasty addition to a cheese or charcuterie plate. They taste similar... MORE»

Chocolate Espresso Cake (flourless)

Posted by ~TigerJo~

I got this recipe from a friend I used to work with, who maintains that it's VITAL to use fresh espresso. This cake is very rich and fudge-like. I've tried cutting the recipe in half (unsucessfully) so I prefer to make the whole cake and just... MORE»

(2 reviews) Posted by ~TigerJo~

This recipe came from a dietitian I know; her original recipe came from Bon Appetit. I haven't made this for awhile, but I tried to include the time it takes to slice and grate the cheeses within the prep time. Total servings should be at least... MORE»

Cucumber, Pomegranate and Goat Cheese Appetizers

(1 reviews) Posted by ~TigerJo~

These are adapted from "TANGY TART HOT & SWEET", by Top Chef's Padma Lakshmi. There, they were called an open-faced tea sandwich, but I'd consider them more like "toasts". They have a nice crunch, and the green, red, and... MORE»

Tangerine Semifreddo (Frozen Tangerine Souffle)

Posted by ~TigerJo~

I made this for Christmas, and it was a refreshing, delicate dessert after a heavy meal of rib roast and mashed potatoes. It tasted a bit like a Creamsicle! I'll post it in the amounts I made it in, but I'd probably add more citrus zest next time.... MORE»

Sauce for Fish Tacos

(10 reviews) Posted by ~TigerJo~

To save time, I bake breaded, frozen catfish strips or other fish fillets. I slice cabbage very thin, it works better for the tacos than shredded cabbage. Add your favorite tortillas (like the "homemade" ones at Trader Joe's) and you have an easy,... MORE»

Asian Salmon

(16 reviews) Posted by ~TigerJo~

This is very quick to prepare; I have marinated the salmon for as little as 1/2 an hour, yet it has plenty of flavor. For ease of preparation, we buy individually portioned salmon from a big-box store. We prefer to grill it on our indoor contact... MORE»

Cheesecake Squares

(4 reviews) Posted by ~TigerJo~

I love this recipe because it got me an "A" one week in my "Newspaper In Classroom" class back in high school. If we made a recipe we found in the newspaper, and the teacher liked it, he'd grade us well. My teacher's questionable grading practices... MORE»

Sesame Cheese Olive Poppers

I got this recipe from a co-worker. She brought them to a Christmas party and although I don't usually like green olives, I LOVED these. The surrounding cheesy-dough goes well with the tart olives. The recipe calls for them to be served hot, but... MORE»
