Nuts to you, nuts to me and to everyone we know

Some days ago I went here and was inspired to try the recipe because I had just done some very different caramel covered nuts from another source.

That David never misses, does he? This took some time, but it is excellent and easy. The only thing you need to watch out for is not to let that blazing sugar touch you.

I followed his directions to the letter except I cooled them on my Silpat to avoid leaving any temptation for ants. The added plus was by rolling up the Silpat I was able to separate more of the nuts than was easily accomplished with two spatulas.

The other recipe is good too, but entirely different. I’ll post a photo of the result as soon as I scan it. I gave them to my neighbors as fast as could be!

Made in America: Bread and Butter Pickles

Judy Witts, the American cook that Italians respect, has posted this week’s recipe for La Buona Cucina Americana. I think it would be just amazing if everybody made pickles this year.

Uhh, Judy? When I made dill pickles I had to grow my own pickling cucumbers. Where are you getting yours?
