Honey Mustard Roasted Chickpeas

Honey Mustard Roasted ChickpeasChick peas can be seasoned and served in several ways to make them very tasty. One of my favorites is marinated in a honey mustard and roasted.

Salt Preserved Lemons in jars

Salt Preserved LemonsThis is a super easy, super useful recipe for preserved pickled lemons. Although they are best known as a staple Moroccan ingredient, used in dishes such as tagines and couscous. Since I began making them a few years ago I have found myself using them in all kinds or recipes up to an including washing off the salt and chopping up the lemon zest to pop into my famous rich Christmas cake (a desperate moment but it worked absolutely fine and I now do it on purpose).

Herbs being pulled through a grater to separate the leaves from the stem.

Pull Herbs Through GraterThis is a fast way to separate herb leaves from their stems. Poke the bottom end of the fresh herb stem in a hole on a grater, then pull on the stem. The herb leaves will be saved on top, while the stems gather on the work surface. Use the smaller grater holes for smaller stems. This is great for fresh herbs like parsley that are time consuming to separate.

Tea in a white teacup.

Making Great TeaMy parents worked in the tea industry way before I was around, so I trust them more than any other source when it comes to making great tea. My father is of Persian descent, my mother of Japanese, and we come from England. These regions are all culturally very heavily tea-based, so my tips here will cover more than just black tea.

Salted Caramel Chocolate Pretzel Buttons on plate

Salted Caramel Chocolate Pretzel ButtonsThese sweet little snacks are incredibly easy to make. Hitting them with a dash of sea salt brings out the savoury in the pretzels, making this a nicely rounded off little dessert snack. They're versatile because you can use any type of candy in the middle, changing the whole flavour experience altogether. I used Caramel M&M's here. You can be picky about what colours you use to suit your event or holiday.

Peanut Butter Banana Muffins cooling on rack

Peanut Butter Banana MuffinsThis is a moist muffin perfect for breakfast or a snack. I used whole wheat flour and brown sugar Truvia. I also used whey instead of milk. This is a perfect way to use up bananas.

Questions

Using a Slow Cooker Liner in the OvenI want to make candied yams in my crockpot, using a liner. But I will need to toast the marshmallows on top in the oven. Is it okay to do this with a liner for the crockpot?

Using a Ninja Master Prep ProfessionalHow do I shred carrots in my Ninja Master Prep Professional chopper/blender?

Using Frozen Zucchini for BakingIf you freeze 2 cups of zucchini, is it still considered 2 cups after thawing when using it to bake bread due to the shrinkage in size?

Refreezing Store Bought PiesCan store bought apple and pumpkin pies be frozen? I believe they may have been previously frozen. They were purchased for thanksgiving, but not eaten. Can I freeze to serve for Christmas?

Reducing the Sugar in a Bread Machine RecipeI have reduced the sugar down from 3 tbsps to 2 teaspoons as the bread was so sweet. Now it only rises to half the height and is a pretty solid, but is more edible. I've also changed to half and half brown and white bread flour. How much sugar do I need to get a good rise without being too sweet?

Adding More Potatoes to a Cheesy Potato CasseroleI'm truly loving all the info on this site! I made cheesy potatoes and I'm sure I can add more potatoes to correct it, but how do I cook the sliced potatoes to add to an already cooked dish?
