Here is my text-message recipe for dutch baby, our go-to weekend breakfast. The recipe is identical to that of Yorkshire Pudding. Serve with maple syrup, or else lemon juice mixed with powdered sugar to make a lemon glaze! Oh and bacon or duck bacon.
Same recipe as usual (I used butter as the fat, and a 50-50 mix of maple syrup and molasses as the sweet), just 30 minutes at full pressure in the pressure cooker instead of six hours in the oven. It worked! Full disclosure: I began with the parboil step, so the end-to-end time was a full hour. But still awesome.
Having run out of tequila, I figured on gin gimlet. Having run out of Rose's (tm) Lime Juice, I realized I had to go with fresh lime. I put a shot of gin and a handful of ice into a cocktail glass. I added the juice from half a lime, plus a tiny pinch of salt and 1/2 tsp of maple syrup (yes, maple syrup). I let it sit for a minute and then poured it into a shaker. I shook it hard and let it rest for a few minutes and then shook it and strained it into the glass. I am pleased. I have an intuition that it is all about patience.
