i have a 12" cast iron preseasoned lodge pan - but i am afraid to try fried eggs in it, as i fear it will only cause me to have to reseason it after my husband tries to clean it. Apartment Therapy The Kitchen | Good Question: What Kind of Nonstick Pan Should I Buy? |

Pardon me for going off-topic, but I simply cannot fathom why renters would renovate anything, let alone a kitchen. it's just another checkmark on a list that proves we have a disposable society. Apartment Therapy The Kitchen | Kitchen Tour: At Home in Paris with David Lebovitz |

traditionally, tsoureki is flavored with the unusual spice mahlepi. mahlepi (sometimes commonly spelled mahleb, from turkish) is a finely ground powder, made from the fruit pits of persian sour cherry trees. it is very difficult to find - and can be scored at mediterranean specialty stores or online at penzeys.
