Supersizing at Gourmet Burger Kitchen. On November 1, 2008. The original Gourmet burger kitchen started it’s first outlet in Battersea and since then, their super-sized burgers have exploded across the country with far too many outlets for it to be countable. If you’re looking for a great meal on a shoe-string in today’s crunch-induced environment then GBK might just interest you. The best burger debate rages on. And also to hache burgers. Burgers, burgers and more burgers. Apart from it’s fairly e...

http://theowlinthekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/06/one-for-fins.html
The Owl in the Kitchen. Tuesday, June 8, 2010. One for the Fins. At least, this is what the fella told me. "You should try real Finnish bread," he informed me, "but this is pretty good". Makes a solid loaf. 225 g rye flour. 300 g white flour. 7 g dried yeast. 1 tbs dark brown sugar. 2 good pinches of salt. 300 ml warm water. 1 tbs melted butter. Pre-heat oven to 190* c. Line a baking tray with paper. Bake in your heated oven for 45 or so minutes, until cooked through. Leave to cool and eat with joy.

Hopie's Kitchen: February 2012
http://hopieskitchen.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Split Pea Soup with Cumin Seeds. The common cold: exciting side effect of temperatures changes, bane of modern medicine, butt of this telling joke. Doctor prescribed rest and supplements for my immune system rather than pneumonia, so I immediately came home and made chicken soup. I made the stock directly with a whole chicken so the meat would get falling-off-the-bone-tender. Only in France would a baker sign his bread like a Picasso! I added cumin seeds to this soup and I think the flavor worked well.

http://theowlinthekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/healthy-breakfast-considered.html
The Owl in the Kitchen. Tuesday, May 25, 2010. A healthy breakfast considered. Quick and easy breakfast solutions. I have searched for them, have you? Toast on the run, done. Cereal when you arrive at work. Fruit smoothy with some muesli thrown in. Pancakes on weekends. Bacon and eggs. Bagels, etc, etc. Made with breakfast cereal, these muffins could be considered healthy. Bran and sultanas, super healthy. With fresh fruit also! Sultana Bran and Pear Muffins. Around 1 3/4 c sultana bran, or similar cereal.

http://theowlinthekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/knocking-on-about-gnocchi.html
The Owl in the Kitchen. Monday, May 24, 2010. Knocking on about gnocchi. Simply years ago I made gnocchi. When I was a girl and dreaming of falling in love with an Italian man and living in Florence. The gnocchi was copious in abundance, stodgy and lumpy. The Italian man never eventuated. While at boarding school I ate my share of gnocchi. It came from a packet and was served on Friday nights with an out-of-a-can tomato sauce. While I thought I loved it, in reality it tasted ordinary. Serves up to 6.

http://theowlinthekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/whole-oranges-for-afternoon-tea.html
The Owl in the Kitchen. Sunday, May 9, 2010. Whole oranges for afternoon tea. Afternoon tea just demands a little mouthful of goodness, doesn't it? Something that is light but sweet, that slips down with a cup of something hot. That gives you a little energy to get through to your evening meal. But does not send you off into a siesta. Whole Orange and Raspberry Cupcakes. Makes 28 or so. 1 3/4 c plain flour. 3 tsp baking powder. 3/4 c raspberries (frozen is fine). In a food processor, blitz the oranges un...

http://theowlinthekitchen.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
The Owl in the Kitchen. Tuesday, June 8, 2010. Cinnamon coffee buns with a twist. Speaking of the Finns, let's talk coffee buns. And coffee. These are fiddly to make. And they take time. But you make so many. And they are so delicious. A little taste of Finland. Makes up to 3 dozen. 100 g caster sugar. 2 small dsp dried yeast. 1 egg, lightly beaten. 125 g butter, softened. 2 tsp cardamon seeds, ground (ideally in a mortar and pestle). 2 tsp ground cinnamon. 50 g caster sugar, extra, plus a little more.

http://theowlinthekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/choc-chip-cookies-continued.html
The Owl in the Kitchen. Friday, May 28, 2010. Choc chip cookies continued. Previous posts have documented a quest for the choc chip cookie to be perfected. Perhaps my problem with this quest starts with the fact that in Aus, I should be searching for a choc chip bickie not cookie! I think not. The mix can be temperamental at times. With flat, fuzzy edged biscuits. Or hard as little frisbees if given a few minutes too long. But when they work, oh they are good! I hope you have success with these. Cook in ...

The Owl in the Kitchen: April 2010
http://theowlinthekitchen.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
The Owl in the Kitchen. Wednesday, April 21, 2010. Some times you just need a snack, a little bit of something to see you though. Right? But what if your fridge has only a scrap of cheese? Or if your bread is stale? Or if there is no fruit? Or if someone bought the wrong crackers from the shops on their last shopping adventure? What do you do? Given that we love a pre-dinner snack, with a drink too, I've come up with these babies. Home made crackers. Am I crackers? Makes a tray full - maybe 24 or so.
