So you think you know how to make scrambled eggs? I bet your method could use some improvement. Watch this short video by Gordon Ramsey on how to scramble eggs like a chef:
Scones are a world of confusion. Here in Utah, most people know a scone as deep fried bread, like the base for Navajo Tacos. There’s even a fast-food restaurant chain based on it called Scone-Cutter. It seems that in other parts of the world, everyone knows the kind of scone in this recipe — the British scone. According to wikipedia, a scone is a quick bread, like a biscuit.
I found this recipe a while ago and it looked delicious so I bookmarked it. It looked really good, and it also used yogurt as an ingredient which was interesting. Then, when I wanted to make it, I couldn’t find it! A few days ago I found it again, so I decided to just make it right then and there. The recipe is from Baking Bites, another cooking blog.
The scones turned out delicious, and I would highly recommend them! Recipe is below…
Several days ago, I picked up some fresh blueberries on sale from the grocery store. I also bought some pancake mix so I could make some blueberry pancakes. They turned out GREAT! (sorry, no pictures)
First, mix up the pancake batter as directed. Then heat up your skillet to 300-350F. When the pan is hot, pour in the batter to the size of pancakes you want. Then drop the fresh (washed, dried) blueberries into each pancake. When the bubbles in the batter start to set, its time to flip the pancakes. Check the bottoms in a few minutes. When they are golden brown (and the blueberries will start to ooze their juice), they are done.
Even store-bought, cheap, plain pancake mix can be made 100 times better by adding blueberries. Don’t forget the REAL maple syrup either. Yes, it’s a bit more expensive than Mrs Butterworth’s, but ITS WORTH IT!
