Lemon Curd is a sunny, bright, fresh, silky lemony spread. I’ve always thought the name doesn’t do it justice. Think of it as a thick lemony pudding. It’s perfect to spread on items, used as a filling for cakes, or mixed into recipes. If you’ve never made lemon curd (or if you have), this easy recipe is transformative!
Almond Praline
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and I’ve already decided on one of my desserts. And no, it’s not Almond Praline – this Almond Praline is just one component of one of the fanciest, showstoppers of a dessert I’ve made for a while. It makes sense to go all out for a Holiday, especially when the dessert can be broken down into do-ahead components and assembled last-minute.
Roasted Pears with Lemon Cream & Maple Caramel Syrup
For once, I don’t have too much to say about a recipe – only that I became utterly enamored with the idea of this when I was leafing through a Midwest Magazine. I was wowed! Perfect for fall, perfect for Thanksgiving, and perfect for me! The recipe makes eight servings, but for these photos, I halved it.
