Ree Drummond has a new book out, THE PIONEER WOMAN COOKS: SUPER EASY!, and it’s fantastic! I’ll show you my full review of the book with all the dishes I tried, but first, I wanted to share a recipe with you! I always thought I was making the Full English Breakfast with extra breakfast, but I was missing the baked beans and mushrooms <shudder>! How good is it? I had one jar of homemade strawberry rhubarb jam left, and I have no rhubarb to make more. It was totally worth it! It’s supposed to serve 4-5, but my husband and I shared half of it, when our 17 year old walked in and polished off the rest. She just smiled with her eyes closed in satisfaction, said, “Thanks! That was so good!”, and left. I felt bad when our older daughter walked in, but I understand. It’s breakfast pilfering good.

A huge thanks to William Morrow for letting me share it with you! And they said yes to two more upcoming recipes. Woohoo! I bet readers who’ve been following me for awhile will know just which ones I asked for. Hope you love it!

If you’ve been following my blog for awhile, you know that I love everything Milk Street does. Always phenomenal. If you’re already a Milk Street fan, you are going to love Milk Street Tuesday Nights Mediterranean. If you’re new to Milk Street, you’re in for a treat. They are absolute minimalists on everything but flavor. They’ll get you from the counter to the table in the easiest way possible. And they’re really strong flavorists.

I posted their recipe for Spaghetti with Lemon Pesto last week. If you missed that, you have to go back and make it! And you can see my full review of the book there. I wanted to share one more dish from this fabulous book with you. Sumac-Spiced Chicken Cutlets with Tomato-Onion Salad. Oh gosh. Are these ever fantastic. Don’t laugh, but if you’ve ever really enjoyed the pucker of a Sour Patch Kid, and you haven’t tried sumac, you’re missing out. The flavor of this dish is really unique and wonderful.

I get a super lemony bundt cake on my birthday every year, and I like their Spaghetti with Lemon Pesto even better. It’s terrifically lemony. The lemons, almonds and cheese play beautifully together. It is absolute perfection. And Milk Street’s letting me share the recipe with you!

The recipe calls for 4 lemons, but only the zest is used, so make plans for that juice or use them to infuse water.

Pasta attachments for the stand mixer, fresh pasta 101 demo, and Cacio e Pepe

by Jennifer Guerrero, posted in Gadgets

The guy from Gvode asked if he could send me a meat grinder attachment for my stand mixer to try. My KitchenAid stopped rotating after about two years. Breville, Vitamix, Wusthof, and FoodSaver make things right if there’s a malfunction. KitchenAid walks away whistling like the cable companies used to. They are way too expensive to die that quickly. Not to mention landfills. Where are you going to go, though? It’s essential equipment. My injustice bells went off. So I took it apart and popped up a blogpost teaching how to change the gear, step by step, in case it happened to someone else. It’s one of my most popular posts, so I know it’s common. So will I test out a far cheaper off-brand attachment? Heck yes! The Gvode meat grinder functioned exactly the same as the pricey one and had more accessories. When I blogged about it, the manufacturer came on and commented on my post that he puts it on a sale price every other week on Amazon so my readers can watch for a discount. Class act. He sent a pasta roller and cutter, too. I’m testing that, too, because it can potentially save people money. So let’s make some pasta!
