Greek
Easter: Occasion for lavish feast
For Greeks across
the globe, the Easter feast is a sumptuous culinary event comprised
of the many foods given up during a strict 40-day Lent. Even such key
foods as olives and olive oil-as well as dairy, meat and fish-may not
be eaten during certain periods.
Breakfasts
that are fast, fresh and tasty
Mom always told
us that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. She probably
wouldn't be too happy to learn that according to the most recent NPD
Group Annual Time Lines Report, breakfast is the meal Americans most
often miss or spend the least time on.
Simple
comforts for Mom: breakfast in bed
Start a family tradition
this Mother's Day by honoring moms, grandmothers and other nurturing
caregivers with a surprise twist on a centuries old tradition. Give
mom the day off from cooking and do for her what she does for the family
throughout the year - kick the day off with a hot breakfast. Pampering
mom with an elegant breakfast in bed of piping hot, fluffy pancakes
made especially for her will surely get Mother's Day off on the right
foot.
Invent
your own way to enjoy an 'old friend'
Peanut butter is
the leading use of peanuts in the U.S. In fact, the world's largest
peanut butter factory churns out 250,000 jars of the tasty treat every
day. However, even though peanut butter is now an American institution,
the modern version has only been enjoyed in this country for about 75
years.
Pickles
create the perfect flavor combination
A pickle and a sandwich.
The long-term relationship between this "perfect couple" is
getting a lot more intimate these days. No longer content to be a pretty
garnish beside a handsome hunk of bread and meat, pickles, pickled peppers
and sauerkraut are now appearing between the bread as well as on the
plate.
'Pear'fectly
pleasing lemon cake
When life gives
you lemons, pair them with pears and celebrate with a simple-to-make,
crowd-pleasing fruit-flavored cake.
Sharpen
your knife knowledge
If
you want to stay on the cutting edge in the kitchen, it may be a good
idea to hone your knowledge of knives.
