Snickers Salad (aka Snicker Apple Salad) This Snicker Apple Salad is a fun recipe! You can surprise your guests and let them guess what that chewy, caramel, nutty, deliciousness is in the salad, or garnish with extra snickers bars on top. I was at a potluck dinner many years ago and this salad was on the buffet line. I had no idea what was in it, because everything was coated with Cool Whip....
Is Musubi Best Hot or Cold? This is a question I get asked all the time. In short, musubi is best when it is served hot or warm. If musubi cools too much or if it is refrigerated, the rice can dry out and get too hard making it crumbly. This can be avoided if it is wrapped up VERY well. When I pack my kids lunchboxes, I not only wrap it up tight, I also put it in a plastic container and press out as much air as I can....

Hi Bold Bakers! Starbucks Mocha Frappuccino is my go-to Frapp. You get the boost from the coffee and at the same time satisfy your sugar craving with the chocolate. Like a lot of people Starbucks is part of my everyday routine. In the morning I go for a tall Flat White to wake me up and then on birthdays and special occasions I get a Frappuccino. The reason I reserve them for these times is because they can tend to be heavy on the caloric side....

Cloves – Cengkih A good friend of mine, Mark, who is an experienced and knowledgeable tour guide in Penang, recently told me that my hometown in Penang produces one of the best quality cloves in the world. Cloves are brilliant to infuse rice, like the tomato-based rice dish in Amazing Malaysian, and when added into tea. It’s also my favourite spice to add to jelly desserts. When buying cloves, get the one that has a round bulb at the tip, which is the best quality....

Thankfully for those of us less au fait with milling, Robert condensed his sprawling knowledge into a charming and truly fascinating book. Slow Rise: A Bread Making Adventure charts the histories, cultures, and traditions associated with bread-making, exploring what it it really takes to create a nourishing and flavoursome loaf....
