In our earlier blog post on Desired Dough Temperature, we introduced a formula that professional bread bakers use to achieve consistently great results.

Ice pops give us life in the summer when the sun dries us up like starfish out of water. But this year, consumers will notice a change in one of the nation’s most popular brands of the icy treat. Otter Pops — known for vibrant pops of blue, red, orange and green — are now “colorless.”

In case you missed it, we kicked off a Food Combining challenge this month in our Detoxinista Community on Facebook. Several members wanted to give food combining a shot, and I think a challenge makes it more fun! You can learn more about food combining here, if you’re interested in joining us, too.

Today’s secret recipe will show you how to make a classic dish served at Chili’s.  The original chicken crispers fried in a batter that’s smooth, light and super crispy.  These are served with a honey mustard dipping sauce and corn on the cob on the side.

You can also serve these with a side of oven baked fries by following this recipe from our forum: Go He...

This easy pancake is stuffed with a mix made of coconut and palm jaggery. Since the recipe uses egg, I skipped it and used the regular All Purpose flour along with Baking Soda. Since on the day I made this, I was to make a Neivedyam for Ganapati Homan, I remembered yet another similar dish t...

Pumpkin cheesecake bars start with a sweet graham cracker crust and are topped off with two layers of cheesecake! These impressive bars look like they took a lot of work, but they’re so simple and bake up creamy and perfect every time!

Did you know that I was a grown woman the first time I ever tried a cheesecake?

Also, did you know that an awful lot of my blog posts start out with me confessing that my parents sheltered me from delicious food? Seriously, mo...
