October | 2014 | Chop It Like It's Hot

https://chopitlikeitshotdotcom.wordpress.com/2014/10

Chop It Like It's Hot. All O’ The Food. Month: October, 2014. October 20, 2014. Rustic sun-dried tomato pretzels. To paraphrase Jack Geller. Who knew that a tomato that looked like a prune could be so delicious? Reference no. 2, complete). I’ve had my fair share of sun-dried tomato bread in my time (and if you’ve not, you have my deepest sympathies), but I’d never tried them in pretzels. Italian flavours and pretzels get along pretty well. So I gave this a whirl. The result? 2 tbsp baking powder. 5 Turn ...

Chop It Like It's Hot. All O’ The Food. Month: March, 2014. March 17, 2014. Lemon and blueberry sandwich cookies. As a Brit, I’m obligated to like biscuits. Just give me a crisp, crunchy biscuit and a hot drink, and everything is at least 48% better. Simplicity goes a long way – a punchy ginger snap, a rich tea, an underrated but self-explanatory Nice biscuit, all wonderful things. Lemon and blueberry sandwich cookies. Zest of 1 lemon. Blueberry conserve (I used Tiptree. 3 Add the sugar and stir through,...

Dark chocolate and strawberry cake | Chop It Like It's Hot

https://chopitlikeitshotdotcom.wordpress.com/2014/04/15/dark-chocolate-and-strawberry-cake

Chop It Like It's Hot. All O’ The Food. Dark chocolate and strawberry cake. By Georgia @ Chop It Like It's Hot. Conveniently, one of my lovely co-workers was leaving, which meant one thing – cake. If there’s any occasion that warrants cake, it’s somebody leaving. Or somebody having a birthday. Or Cake Day. Or Tuesdays in general. Anyway, I cracked out Mary’s chocolate cake recipe, added a few touches and here’s what resulted…. Dark chocolate and strawberry cake. 1 tsp baking powder. 3 eggs, beaten. 3 Sif...

Lemon and herb chicken with courgette ribbon penne | Chop It Like It's Hot

https://chopitlikeitshotdotcom.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/lemon-and-herb-chicken-with-courgette-ribbon-penne/comment-page-1

Chop It Like It's Hot. All O’ The Food. Lemon and herb chicken with courgette ribbon penne. By Georgia @ Chop It Like It's Hot. Courgettes (or zucchini) seem to get a bad rap: whenever they’re in season, a mountain of recipes pile onto the web on how to ‘make courgettes interesting’. So, maybe they’re not universally loved like tomatoes, but they’re not the scumbags of the fruit and veg world (that position is reserved for persimmons. Lemon and herb chicken with courgette ribbon penne. 1 tbsp olive oil.

Chop It Like It's Hot. All O’ The Food. Month: May, 2014. May 12, 2014. Mushroom cheeseburgers with homemade BBQ sauce. I went outside without a coat. It’s that time of year, people. Yep. The weather has turned from overcast but inoffensive to actually quite nice. Hell, I even bought some factor 50 last week (I’m ginger, okay? You know how all that goes – first you go out without a jacket, next you’re on the Pimm’s and before you know it you’re BBQing it up. Probably. I never really buy BBQ sauce because...

Chop It Like It's Hot. All O’ The Food. Month: August, 2014. August 24, 2014. Lime and coconut madeleines. I enjoy a lot of things that come out of France – the ballet, the language, Michel Roux Junior, and so on. They also whip up some damn good treats, like maracons and financiers, that are so utterly beautiful it’s impossible to imagine eating them. Until you put one in your mouth, get a hit of sugar and destroy it anyway. While some patisserie products (I’m looking at you, macarons. Soft, buttery cak...

Orange, date and cinnamon swirls | Chop It Like It's Hot

https://chopitlikeitshotdotcom.wordpress.com/2013/11/20/orange-date-and-cinnamon-swirls/comment-page-1

Chop It Like It's Hot. All O’ The Food. Orange, date and cinnamon swirls. By Georgia @ Chop It Like It's Hot. I’ve said it before – bread dough scares me. Responsibility for a living thing? The orange-spiked dough for these sweet, comforting swirls might take a while to prepare, but it’s not tricky at all. It’s adapted from one of Paul Hollywood’s enriched dough methods. Because who’d argue with the king of kneading? Contrary to the thoughts of British retailers, Christmas isn’t here yet (that’s right it...
