crème fraiche cake

beautifully fluffy and light cake with a special ingredient: crème fraiche. perfect for when you bought a whole tub because you only needed a spoonful for a different recipe, or if you want to make a cake that isn’t butter-rich! i made this last night and it would be a crime not to share. 

ingredients:

- 180g caster sugar (i used half vanilla sugar half plain sugar) - 250g (or most of a 300ml tub) crème fraiche - 3 medium eggs - 300g flour - 3 tsp baking powder - chocolate chips (any kind; i use plain/dark chocolate since it complements the light creamy flavour) - butter/margarine (for greasing the cake tin)

you will need:

- a cake tin/silicone baking mould 24 - 28cm in diameter - mixing bowl - wooden spoon - hand whisk - sieve

to make:

- preheat oven to 200 degrees C or gas mark 5. - combine sugar and crème fraiche in a large bowl with the spoon. add the eggs, one at a time, beating the mixture with the whisk between each addition. - sift the flour and baking powder in; combine. add chocolate chips at this stage! - grease your cake tin/silicone mold and pour the mix in. throw it into the oven and bake for 30 minutes. - once baked through, upturn the cake onto a wire rack to cool. pop it in a tin or box the same day you make it to keep it fresh and fluffy!

enjoy!

Lembas Bread (Lord of the Rings “authentic” Elvish bread)

Ingredients: 

 2 ½ cups of flour 1 tablespoon of baking powder ¼ teaspoon of salt ½ cup of butter 1/3 cup of brown sugar 1 teaspoon of cinnamon ½ teaspoon honey 2/3 cup of heavy whipping cream ½ teaspoon of vanilla

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425F. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Add the butter and mix with a well till fine granules (easiest way is with an electric mixer). Then add the sugar and cinnamon, and mix them thoroughly.

Finally add the cream, honey, and vanilla and stir them in with a fork until a nice, thick dough forms.

Roll the dough out about 1/2 in thickness. Cut out 3-inch squares and transfer the dough to a cookie sheet.Criss-cross each square from corner-to-corner with a knife, lightly (not cutting through the dough).

Bake for about 12 minutes or more (depending on the thickness of the bread) until it is set and lightly golden.

***Let cool completely before eating, this bread tastes better room temperature and dry. Also for more flavor you can add more cinnamon or other spices***

One-Pan Chicken Florentine Spaghetti

[bubblyfeedingblog]

mine own carbonara recipe for my big sis joouheika:

2 tablespoons olive oil lots of garlic butter (I probably use more than is necessary so do it to taste) 6 rashers of bacon 75g parmesan 3 eggs 400-450g pasta (depending on how hungry you are)

all of these measurements are guesses tbh so if you want more cheese add more cheese. be careful with adding more egg though bc it’s easy to add too much

before you start, chop your bacon into thin-ish (1cm?) strips and grate the parmesan. idk how long your pasta will take to cook/when to start cooking it but I usually start it after the bacon

SO first off you get however many garlic cloves are reasonable (cooking for 1 I use about 4 bc you can never have too much), peel them and bash them with the flat side of a knife so they’re slightly crushed. toss them in a frying pan with hot olive oil. once the garlic’s golden brown on both sides whip it out and throw it away (or eat it I won’t judge you), add a bit of butter and throw in the bacon. cook it until it’s slightly crisp and turn off the heat. get a warmed bowl and mix/whisk the parmesan with the eggs in it until the mixture’s nice and smooth, then add pepper (and salt if you want but with the bacon, cheese and salt in the pasta water I find salt at this stage is too much). just before the pasta is completely cooked, reheat the bacon. once the pasta’s cooked, drain it and chuck it in the bowl with the egg/cheese mixture as soon as possible, add the bacon and mix it around so the egg cooks a little. then eat it and cry bc it’s delicious

Brûléed Yogurt with Fresh Fruit

[milles-feuilles]

welsh rarebit (recipe under the cut)

ingredients

- 2 slices bread - 1 egg - hard cheese (edam, cheddar, etc anything that will grate well), grated finely, A Really Big Handful - tomato, cut into slices (cherry tomatoes work too) - worcestershire sauce/lea & perrins - salt & pepper - optional sprig of parsley

method

grill/toast bread on one side under the grill (low heat, to give you time to work)

meanwhile, grate the cheese (if you haven't already done so), and beat the egg lightly in a small bowl with a fork. mix in the cheese as well as a pinch of salt and pepper. add one or two drops of lea & perrins.

take the bread out from under the grill and dollop the cheese/egg mix onto the non-toasted side of the bread. spread it out but not all the way to the edges because it will melt further!

arrange the tomato slices on top of cheese mix, scatter a few more drops of lea & perrins on top of each slice of bread, and add parsley (if using)

put the bread back under the grill on low heat for 5~7 minutes, long enough for the cheese to be browned on top!

it's gonna be really hot when you eat it so wait a bit before tucking in!

Recipe

[ohcarararara]

someone in my tag reminded me of this so I thought I’d share this ‘recipe’ I use!

Remember this dude from Aristocats?

It’s Roquefort! Enjoying Crème de la Crème à la Edgar! And holy crap, this tiny little scene left such an impression on me as a kid! Despite the, you know, drugs and everything, I ALWAYS thought Crème de la Crème à la Edgar looked AMAZING and I wanted to GO TO THERE.

And I eventually figured it out:

Heat up a mug of milk in the microwave for about a minute or a minute and a half, or carefully heat in a small pan over the stove, but make sure you’re constantly stirring it so the bottom doesn’t scorch

I usually drink whole milk, so that’s what I use, but man I bet this would be delicious with Almond or Coconut milk as well

Once your milk is warm, stir in a small splash of vanilla (extract, not flavor), a spoonful of sugar, and sprinkle with cinnamon

For the true experience, you seriously need to have Ritz crackers to dunk in the milk. I freaking love Ritz crackers, and they’ve got just the right touch of sweetness to be perfect.

This is one of those feel good comfort recipes that is just so good on a bleh day and you just want to stay inside and watch Disney movies (which honestly, is most days).

Hot Apple Spiced Tea

[oldcoyote]

with the southern hemisphere heading into winter, this tea is a delicious way to warm up the cold nights. it also helps to relieve nausea and clear the head.

1 pound (500g) of green apples, cored & quartered

2 cinnamon sticks

5 whole cloves

½ teaspoon of nutmeg

½ teaspoon of allspice

2 pieces of orange peel

2 to 3 tablespoons of 100% pure maple syrup

1. place all the ingredients except the syrup into a large pot, and cover with half a gallon (2 litres) of water.

2. bring to boil on the stove

3. once the water boils, reduce to simmer for half an hour until the apples break up (note: if you leave the lid off the pot, your house will fill with that amazing, spicy apple cider smell)

4. strain the liquid into a large jug

5. add 2-3 tablespoons of 100% pure maple syrup to taste (i don’t always use the maple syrup, but it does give it body, and that apple-cider like taste. you can also use brown sugar if you prefer it.)

Animal Crossing – Brewster’s Pigeon Blend

Here at Gourmet Gaming we’re big fans of Loading’s 9-Bit Mega Coffee, and have been looking for the perfect recipe so showcase it for some time. While coffee does feature quite often in games, it’s never been more charming as in Animal Crossing. Visit The Roost, and once a day Brewster will serve you his perfect blend, sometimes with a splash of pigeon milk – if you’re lucky. For a mere 200 bells you can enjoy this sweet and smooth treat. Just don’t wait for it to cool! Are you insane?!

This recipe serves 1.

What you will need: A Moka Express/Espresso Maker/Cafetiere etc., a small mug and a small pan.

Ingredients:

75ml / 2.5 fl oz. Fresh Espresso/Strong Coffee

25ml / 0.85 fl oz. Vanilla Coffee Syrup

50ml / 1.7 fl oz. Almond Milk

100ml / 3.5 fl oz. Whole Milk

Optional Garnish:

Double/Heavy Cream

Feathers

Making Brewster’s Pigeon Blend:

In a small pan, warm the whole milk and almond milk together - don’t let it boil! Have your cup ready with the vanilla syrup filling the bottom.

Prepare your coffee. Once the almond milk and milk is near boiling point, pour it into the mug on top of the vanilla syrup.

Next add the shot of espresso on top, then swirl through with a little cream. Garnish with a few Brewster feathers.

Turning on my DS was a stressful affair, I tried to avoid looking at all those weeds… It’s just as well I had this cup of java to pick me up. Though Brewster would rather you took your coffee black, his legendary Pigeon Blend is a beautiful homage in gaming, but could you expect anything less?! For the record, I did research the idea of actually using ‘pigeon milk’ and soon discovered ‘crop milk’. Something you definitely don’t want in your morning coffee.

You can buy Loading’s 9-Bit Mega Coffee from Firebox.com.
