  • Orange Galette with Grand Marnier Cream

    Posted on February 23, 2011 by Angie McKaig

    I know, I know, I’ve said that a dessert must include chocolate in order to be a real dessert. And I meant it. But with the height of citrus season upon us (at least, for those of us who obsess over making Seville orange marmalade every year – yeah, I’m one of those) I was [...]

  • Brownies from Chewy Gooey Crispy Crunchy

    Posted on January 26, 2011 by Angie McKaig

    Last week, I told you all about my new favourite cookie cookbook, Chewy Gooey Crispy Crunchy by Alice Medrich. When it came time to decide what recipe to try, it really wasn’t much of a stretch. As I’ve mentioned before, I’m all about chocolate. Can’t imagine a dessert without it. Yes, I know that’s heresy [...]

When the folks from Chronicle sent [...]

    I have this thing for old cookbooks; partly it’s the smell. Partly it’s the archaeology of finding the most chocolate-or-butter-smeared page in the book (that’s where ALL the best recipes are found). But mostly it’s for the cooking inspiration and history lesson I get, all in one fell swoop. I’ve found two of the best [...]

  • Ribs, Chops, Steaks & Wings

    Posted on October 11, 2010 by Angie McKaig

    If there’s one thing my husband loves, it’s barbecue. (I think it’s from watching a few too many Diners, Drive ins & Dives.) If it’s meat, and it’s cooked on a grill, he’s in. Don’t even have to ask. Chronicle Books kindly sent me along a copy of Ray “Dr. BBQ” Lampe’s newest book: Ribs, [...]
