核桃布朗尼 Brownies with Walnuts

口感綿密的布朗尼沒有重重的化學巧克力醬味
而是滑順香醇的苦甜巧克力豆
上面撒上烘培過的核桃
輕輕的麵香和可可粉的華爾滋
是舌間劃過後讓人愉悅的甜蜜
吃一口 口齒留香
再一口 微笑不止
這就是不只好吃的功力 而是歡愉的幸福時刻！！
---王X寶

牛排, 迷迭香番茄與白花椰 Luncheon with daddy

Today's one of those special days that I make lunch meals...other days I make desserts and breads. Why? Because I'm a sweet tooth!  Haha.

I kicked off by pan searing the steak, stick it into a preheated oven at 175 Celsius for 10-12 mins. Meanwhile, boil a pot of water to blanch the cauliflowers.

Use the steak pan, add in tomatoes, some sun dried tomatoes, tomato sauce and some herbs.

Oh, don't forget to season it with some salt and pepper!

蘇打餅乾 Crackers -"Polly want a cracker?"

"Polly want a cracker?"

I don't have a pet parrot, but the voice "Polly want a cracker?" always comes up when I make crackers. I guess I watched Treasure Island too many times on TV when I was small.   Hummm...."Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum..." (don't put rum into the recipe!)

Ingredients

• Vegetable-oil cooking spray
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
• 4 packages (1/4 ounce each) unflavored gelatin
• 3/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
• 2 large egg whites
• 2 teaspoons red food coloring

Directions

1. Coat an 8-inch square pan with cooking spray; line bottom with parchment paper. Coat the parchment with cooking spray, and set pan aside. Put sugar, corn syrup, and 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Stop stirring; let mixture come to a boil. Raise heat to medium-high; cook until mixture registers 260 degrees on a candy thermometer.
2. Meanwhile, sprinkle gelatin over 3/4 cup water in a heatproof bowl; let stand 5 minutes to soften. Set the bowl with the gelatin mixture over a pan of simmering water; whisk constantly until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat, and stir in extract; set aside.
3. Beat egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until stiff (but not dry) peaks form. Whisk gelatin mixture into sugar mixture; with mixer running, gradually add to egg whites. Mix on high speed until very thick, 12 to 15 minutes.
4. Pour mixture into lined pan. Working quickly, drop dots of red food coloring across surface of marshmallow. Using a toothpick, swirl food coloring into marshmallow to create a marbleized effect. Let marshmallow stand, uncovered, at room temperature until firm, at least 3 hours or overnight. Cut into squares.
