A Really Good Dessert

Nothing like a really killer dessert.



This was what the scene was like at Hungry Cat a few nights ago after diving into their chocolate bread pudding.

All my pre-teen years I searched... and now I have found... THE eye mask. Do I get it?

Cotton Candy Cats

Pizza

I have been obsessed with making pizzas lately. Get dough from Trader Joe's and then experiment with toppings willy nilly! My latest creations were truffle mushroom garlic and zucchini onion and red pepper.

Science Cookies. Gross but kinda Cute.

Yes, these are mouse cookies with ears growing on their backs. Here for more geek.

More Pops... now in Macaron.

Kimchi Pancake

I am always trying to use the ingredients that I already have on hand.  Call it laziness or call it thrift, it always baffles me how the pantry can be full but there is nothing to eat.  That is why when I saw a recipe in the Times for a kimchi pancake, I knew I had to make it. I love Korean food and, while I didn't have kimchi in the cupboard already, I did have everything else.  To make the pancake, it takes so few ingredients and so little time that I ended up making it twice in one week.

Simply mix together flour and potato starch, equal parts.  Then add an egg (we only had egg whites on hand - adding the equivalent amount didn't pose a problem).  I thinned it out with a tiny bit of water, too. Then, add the remainder of the ingredients - scallion, garlic, pepper and kimchi.  I did my best to cut the kimchi without making too much of a mess. The batter turns a funny pink.

Then heat up some oil and fry the pancakes (this recipe will make 3).



Because of the potato starch, the pancake gets very stiff, making for easy flipping.



Make sure to double or triple the dipping sauce recipe - it's really delicious and goes great over rice the following day.
