The January 2010 DC challenge was hosted by Cuppy of Cuppylicious and she chose a delicious Thai-inspired recipe for Pork Satay from the book 1000 Recipes by Martha Day.This was a really yummy recipe. I did the faster version. It had a little to much pepper in it for my kids, so I think when I make it again I'd do 1/2 or 3/4 as much. Enjoy :)Satay (or sate) is very often served as “street fare

So I'm late in posting again (and still haven't figured out pictures on my computer). I attempted the gingerbread house and it was a DISASTER.

They chose to challenge Daring Bakers’ everywhere to bake and assemble a

The November 2009 Daring Cooks challenge was brought to you by Audax of Audax Artifex and Rose of The Bite Me Kitchen. They chose sushi as the challenge.At first I was really nervous about this challenge. I think that I had only had sushi once in my entire life and I remember the seaweed tasting terrible. I thought about what I would want to put in my sushi. I decided on cucumber, avocado, shrimp

She chose the French treat, Vols-au-Vent based on the Puff Pastry recipe by Michel Richard from the cookbook Baking With Julia by Dorie Greenspan.This recipe was so much fun to make. The pastry really reminded me of the same process as the braids, only this time I didn't end up in tears while making it. (The

This month's challenge was really fun. My husband was really excited because he lived in Spain for two years and loved their rice dishes. I found an import store in SLC so I was able to get a paella pan, saffron, and Spanish rice. It turned out okay. I should have stirred the rice a little more to mix the saffron in to make the rice yellow. Also, I didn't cook the rice long enough and it was

The July Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Nicole at Sweet Tooth. She chose Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Cookies and Milan Cookies from pastry chef Gale Gand of the Food Network.
