I haven't posted last week's winning recipe from ideas 22 yet or even written a post to explain why, so what am I doing posting about a fresh set of ideas?
Well, let me apologize for my tardiness. I did make the chicken hyderabadi, but the recipe as published needed to be reworked and retested prior to posting. I meant to say so, but I kept hoping to get to the retest sooner. I'm close to finished with the modified recipes for chicken hyderabadi and sweet orange focaccia now, so keep an eye out for those soon....
In the meantime, I offer four new ideas to vote on. This time, I've already made them all, so there's no chance I'll find myself trying to divine the intention of the author while wanting to strangle the editor. Yesterday I got to spend the whole day cooking with a friend in advance of a dinner party, and almost all of the savory dishes we made came from a cookbook I've fallen pretty hard for: Modern Potluck. For the sweet ideas of the week, there's a lovely and simple mash-up of vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream from the Vanilla Bean Baking Book and Ovenly, respectively, as well as some hot fudge rugelach from Cookie Love that taste exactly like my memories of rugelach growing up.
A) Polenta Stuffed with Sausage and Broccoli Rabe from Modern Potluck
B) Chinese Chicken Salad from Modern Potluck
C) Vanilla Bean Cake with Vanilla Buttercream from Vanilla Bean Baking Book and Ovenly
D) Hot Fudge Rugelach from Cookie Love
I vote for D) Hot Fudge Rugelach
I'll join Carol B and vote for the Hot Fudge Rugelach. Rugelach is so much better fresh. Can't get much fresher than making it from scratch!
Thanks for voting! It was one of the most popular cookies of the 2016 12 days of cookies 😀
