The Pinkie-up zone: June 2010
http://thepinkie-upzone.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 4, 2010. How to clean and season your grill after every use. After cooking your food, leave your grill on high for a few minutes to burn off all the food residue. Then scrub it down with a brush. If your grill grate is ceramic, don't scrub it with the metal scraper at the end of your brush or it will scratch off the finish on the grates. Labels: 30 minutes with your grill. Not a fish lover? This recipe will win you over. The salmon is so flaky and infused with smoky flavor from the Cedar...

The Pinkie-up zone: Brown Gravy
http://thepinkie-upzone.blogspot.com/2010/10/brown-gravy.html
Monday, October 11, 2010. This thick and dark gravy full of flavor and body can be used for any beef dish, from Beef Wellington to Prime Rib. It really adds the extra boost to an already-perfectly moist and tender slice of meat. In a sauce pan, saute:. 1 shallots, minced. 2 cloves garlic, minced. After the shallots and garlic are soft, about 5 minute, add:. 1 Tbsp. tomato paste. 2 Tbsp. butter. 2 Tbsp. all purpose flour. Stir together until the mixture turns brown. Then add:. 1/3 cup marsala or red wine.

The Pinkie-up zone: Anyway you slice it
http://thepinkie-upzone.blogspot.com/2010/05/anyway-you-slice-it.html
Sunday, May 23, 2010. Anyway you slice it. It's not too far from the truth to say that Seth fell in love with me for my pies. Not a big fan of eating apple pies myself, but I love making them and giving them away to friends. These were our thank you gifts to anyone who ever helped us with anything around a house of four college girls who couldn't seem to get any appliance to work properly. Through trials and errors, I've learned a few tricks over the years:. 1/2 tsp. salt. 15 sticks cold butter, cubed.

The Pinkie-up zone: October 2010
http://thepinkie-upzone.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 27, 2010. The only reason for the title of this post is a put a crown on my pie. Pecan pie is no where closely related to anything from the Roman Empire. But hey, if it has a crown, it might as well be of Ceasar. This Maple Butter Pecan Pie is so rich and delicious, it is guaranteed to convert any anti-pecan pie into a huge fan. It doesn't only taste good, it's also a beauty that will surely impress. You will need a small leaf cookie cutter for the decoration. 8 oz pecan halves, toasted.

The Pinkie-up zone: A taste of Italy
http://thepinkie-upzone.blogspot.com/2010/10/taste-of-italy.html
Monday, October 25, 2010. A taste of Italy. Note: I prefer sponge cake over angle food cake. They are pretty much siblings in the cake family, very similar. But for this recipe, sponge cake works much better. Angle food cake makes of egg white without the yolk. The beaten egg white is very glossy, making it a little more difficult to soak with coffee. Sponge cake works like. a sponge. 4 eggs, separated. 4 Tbsp. cold water. 1 Cup cake flour. 1 tsp baking powder. 2 Tbsp. Kahlua or rum. Combine and set aside.

The Pinkie-up zone: February 2011
http://thepinkie-upzone.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Gonzo Laguarda is one of my husband's and friends from college. He recently moved to Dallas to attend Dallas Theological Seminary. After six months of being in Dallas, he came back to visit with a fiance! The couple was gracious enough to let me do their wedding cake. I was excited! After another six months of being engaged, they finally tied the knot last Saturday in Virginia Beach. Their colors were red, white, and black, perfect for a winter wedding. The goodness of wisdom.

The Pinkie-up zone: May 2010
http://thepinkie-upzone.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Slow and steady wins the race. In contrast to my last post, this one takes a few hours to do. But it is worth every second! A risotto has been the perfect match for a pot of Osso buco. I made a saffron risotto, which gives a very attractive shade of yellow to be topped off with the dark and rich osso buco gravy. Risotto is an Italian rice that is quite time consuming to make. But when done right, it is rich and creamy while still al dente! 4 Add to the same pot:. 2 Tbsp. butter.
