Next up in the bake-whatever-I feel-like CAKE edition? Sweet and Salty Cake from the Baked Boys.
Anything slow cooked or braised - any soup or stew - will work in a dutch oven. It is deifnitely not a carnivore-only appliance. It is great for carmelizing just onions (or onions/carrots/celery kn...
I don't care for it on its own or as the predominant flavor, but I was won over by its inclusion in a cake recipe (White Chocolate Whisper Cake in the Rose Beranbaum's the Cake Bible) - the cocoa b...
Try sprinkling on a chocolate bar to see if you like the flavor combo- one of the artisan chocolatiers around here has a lavender sea salt bar (the flakes of salt are sprinkled over when it is cool...
