Ooh cinanmon rolls...can't wait! A wonderful baker in Chiangmai Thailand taught me to make my very first batch. The brioche dough which I'd never made before is some kinda magic! She kept assuring me that the butter would incorporate into the flour. I had serious doubts but it was only a matter of time just like she said. From that day I've never taken a Cinnamon roll for granted. When made by hand, they are truly a labor of love.
Phew-y made that carrot salad w/ date vinaigrette last night and per usu it was a stunner. We are long time snacks stans in this house (but new to Substack? Lol) and my wife was like I ACCEPT JUSTINE’S FOOD ONLY!!!!! like copy that 🫡
Forgot to mention: I am using bread flour to make the Salted Banana Cookies and the Sour Cream Chocolate Chip Cookies per your suggestion about the bread flour. I am really loving what a level up texture these cookies have now! You give such great instructions...it's so great to be able to trust that the time and ingredients will produce such a dependably terrific result!
The tuna salad. It will now be THE tuna salad for me. Really satisfying and perfect!
A question: Can the Salted Banana Cookie dough be portioned and frozen successfully? I tend to make the two ounce cookies and I'm also wondering about how long to bake them and at what temperature if I freeze them. These have become such a favorite and we would love to have them "at the ready" when the craving hits...but, we are also wanting to try for more "moderation." That never seems to happen when I make a full batch!!!
Adding that carrot salad to my cook list - looks heavenly!
