SUCCESS! I had a successful fail with these bagels a few weeks ago, and managed to find time to re-try with some significant changes to the process and recipe. The last batch was good, but these ones are glorious! The best part, they can be done in a single day. Let’s jump into it. INGREDIENTS…

Sun-dried Tomato & Herb Sourdough Bagels – A Successful Fail
I am late to the game, but have somewhat jumped on the sourdough train. My mom got into it in this past year, and when she went to Germany for a month, I was given the task of keeping her starter alive. I figured, I might as well experiment and try making some bread. I…
Rhubarb Curd
I grew up enjoying lemon curd made by my gran. Since I am trying to enjoy more of our rhubarb, I decided to see if there were any recipes out there for a rhubarb curd. There were! Lots. I decided to compare some of those recipes to the lemon curd recipe I had. For the…
Oma’s Rhubarb Cake
Technically, this is someone else’s recipe from their Oma. But, I had an Oma, and I made some variations to the original recipe, so I am rolling with the “Oma’s Rhubarb Cake” name. The original recipe that I found for this was very basic. It lacked spices, though it did seem to get a lot…

With my first year of scapes I am trying all sorts of recipes. The one I think I am most excited for is this one, garlic scape mustard. I’ve always wanted to try making mustard so I found a few recipes, and as usual, mixed a few together and added some of my own ingredients,…
Cheesy Broccoli Soup
This is our first year growing broccoli and when the weather briefly cooled to fall temperatures, it made us want to make soup. My co-worker brought in some cheddar broccoli soup, which I had to have. So we harvested some broccoli and made some soup. We paired it with some Zucchini Herb Scones, which was…
