Updates...and Must haves

These three items are "must haves" in my kitchen.  The instant flour is great for thickening anything without creating lumps. The Cavenders Greek Seasoning is my essential for chicken, pork and lamb.  And the crushed red pepper always adds zing to soups and sauces.  More "must haves" another day...

And now a few updates:

Friend Pam made the Apple Cake recipe and cut the oil to 2/3 cup.  She said it was still very moist.

I turned the Chuck Muer House bread into Cheesy bread by rolling it out on a baking sheet dusted with kosher salt after the first rise, brushing it with the "blessing" and let it rise for about 30 - 40 minutes.  I then baked it for 10 minutes at 450F, lowered the heat to 400F and covered it with about 4 oz. of shredded mozzarella cheese and baked it for 10 -15 minutes more.  It was great!!

I also forgot to mention that the Asian inspired salmon can be turned into Asian inspired chicken by substituting skinless, boneless chicken breasts.
