Yeasted Doughnuts & Glazes Galore!

It's Friday and we've made it to our last doughnut before the weekend! I couldn't let the week go buy without sharing another sweet fried dough recipe and this time, it's a good one. Yeasted doughnuts are a favorite and we had a lot of fun making these in our kitchen. Aside from preparing an easy dough, the best part was glazing and decorating them with a plethora of toppings. A sweet yeast dough proofs and are cut into various shapes and sizes before frying up until golden brown. They soon meet their fate by getting crowned with glaze and adorned with sprinkles, jimmies, sugars and sweets...Doughnuts are a great way to start

Traditional French Leek and Potato Soup for Two

ROOTS & RACINESBouillabaisse is only good because cooked by the French, who, if they cared to try, could produce an excellent and nutritious substitute out of cigar stumps and empty matchboxes. - Norman Douglas, British novelist (1868-1952) I have always considered my mother-in-law a typical French ménagère, housewife, mother, woman of the house. She worked fulltime alongside her husband in their corner mom-and-pop shop, she raised four children, seeing to their needs daily, and had a hot meal on the table every day at noon and a light repast on the table at the end of each very long working day. I have always considered my mother-in-law

These apple fritters are chockful of apples in a sweet batter that's fried and finished off with a simple dusting of cinnamon sugar or better yet, a maple glaze...Some folks may be reminded of funnel c
