Apple Wine

Ok ladies and gentlemen................... raise your glasses.............. Cheeeeeerrrrrrrsssssss!!!!!!! It's time to make some vino......... Wine is christmasy, very very christmasy..... it is MERRY Christmas after all. . Come on....... what about that song, Christmas time, mistletoe and wine........... la la la , , I love that one by the way............ In my very Christmasy "spirit" I have decided to share my very treasured recipe for Apple wine. Just the sound of it makes it so treasured. Don't you think so. I love trying out wines and over the years I have realized that wine making is pretty simple; you can make it with almost any fruit, the process and recipe is sorta similar. You need to follow a few guidelines while making wine. These are like universal wine making rules for homemade wines. Follow them honestly and your wine ain't gonna be sour. 1. Stir your wine, regularly, for the days, mentioned in the recipe. 2. Wait, is this microphone...

Caramel Custard

Caramel Custard , or flan, or caramel pudding, or creme caramel, oh, call it what you will, it doesn't matter. Truth is, it's a classic!!! and my all time favourite dessert and as luck would have it the foodie on duty (aka hubby darling) lovessssss it too. There can never be enough of it and to think that this heavenly dessert needs just 4 ingredients!!!! Unbelievable. Remember this? My first introduction to caramel custard was when I was a little kid. We often made it using the Weikfield pack. I still remember what that packet looked like. The instructions were easy to follow and it didn't take too long for that dessert to set and thinking of it, if given a chance I could've eaten the entire bowl on my own,,, sigh, if not for those two siblings.......

Banana Butterscotch Pudding

This recipe for banana butterscotch pudding seemed too easy to be true. Honestly, I found the method a bit weird too. Read on and you'll know why. With all the uneasiness around the recipe, I still went ahead to try it out, without thinking twice, in fact, I baked it twice, two batches for a lunch we were going to. The only reason I wasn't jittery about it, is because it's a Rachel Allen recipe and I love Rachel Allen. Scroll through the baking section and you'll find quite a few Rachel Allen recipes. Date bars and Peanut blondies are couple of my favourites. This batter takes just 10 mins and a whisk to make. Sometimes that's the best part of a recipe, that it doesn't need an electric beater, which means less cleaning and who doesn't love that. This is a kind of odd recipe. For starters, it uses 3 tbsp of baking powder. That does sound like a lot, in fact that's how much I'd use in a month of baking. Put your doubts aside and use...
