The Gray Line and Darjeeling Macarons
This Darjeeling tea macaron with yuzu is full of floral aromas and delicate flavors. It’s a great recipe for those who are looking to tackle a big-ish baking project. Even if you’re intimidated by the techniques don’t worry, because flops taste just as good as ones that turn out perfectly.
…Chocolate Raspberry Choux au Craquelin
It’s Valentine’s, Galentine’s, or Friday night (whichever excites you the most!). Why not make it extra special with these chocolate raspberry choux au craquelin? They are streusel topped cream puffs filled with chocolate pastry cream, raspberries, and chantilly. They’re fluffy, frilly, and tickled with pink, but despite all the pomp and air, these cream puffs are oddly comforting and easy to eat–by which I mean multiple quantities can be consumed without feeling terribly full. Don’t they sound perfect for a day like February 14th?
…Berry Pavlova
A few summers ago, I was on a pavlova kick and it became my go-to dessert of the season. I had a great recipe that was delicious, and I never thought I’d want to make any tweaks, but here we are six years later with a new, and improved pavlova recipe on the site!
…Korean Sweet Rice Dessert, Yaksik
It may come as a surprise, but my favorite type of dessert is the Korean rice cake. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing like a thick slice of chocolate cake, and I’m a sucker for shortbread cookies, but if rice cakes are on the table, that’s what I’m going for (first).
Like so many other Koreans, ddeok or rice cakes were a big part of my childhood, which is probably why I love them so much. We had them for breakfast, as a snack, in savory dishes, for dessert, and during any major holiday or celebration. There are so many varieties to choose from, but this version, yaksik or Korean sweet rice dessert, is one of my all-time favorites.
