1839. Quick Turkish Delight

Most Turkish delights are made using glucose syrups. This is an easy homemade version using plain old pantry ingredients you can easily find in any home. The nuts we added are pistachio, but they can be switched for another type of nut or completely left out.

1838. Sesame Crust Sourdough Boule

The sourdough chronicles continue.  Today's entry is a sesame seed crusted sourdough boule.

I posted a Palestinian purslane dish not too long ago, and this Syrian version with burghul used up the last of my frozen summer bounty.

1834. The Best Hot Chocolate

This is the end-all and be-all of all hot chocolate recipes. Once you try this one, there is no going back to the powdered cocoa versions.
