Just a few quick photos of some new recipes I've tried recently. Fall/Winter is in the air. I have even started a knitting project that may be duplicated for holiday gifts.
I love tomato soup! I had never tried to make any myself, but with the cold weather in the air I was craving some and wanted to give it a go. So....here is my first attempt. I have to say it turned out very well. I have since made another batch and how have a couple of jars in the freezer. The only ingredients I used were shallots, butter, tomatoes (~ 2lbs, blanched, peeled and cut up), chicken broth, salt, pepper, dried basil, and heavy cream after pureeing the mixture. YUM!
I made my first apple pie of the Fall season last night. I used a new recipe for the crust from my Martha Stewart book. My heart cut-outs got a little burnt, but hopefully they will still taste good. Pâte Brisée in French means "broken pastry". Martha says this is a must-use recipe for homemade pie crust and promises that the crust will be tender and flaky. We are about to try it very soon, so I will let you know.
