[ad_1] If you have black cocoa powder (which makes everything look and taste like Oreos), you can swap half of the cocoa here for it — i.e. I use 2 tablespoons dark cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons black. 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons, 2 ounces, or 55 grams) unsalted butter, cold …

[ad_1] I bake this in an 8-inch cast-iron skillet but you could also use a 9-inch skillet, 8-inch square or 9-inch round cake. Each will bake slightly thinner, so check in at the 25-minute mark, just to be safe. For cornmeal, almost any kind can do, but this medium-grind is …

[ad_1] It’s a gorgeous spring week in New York City, the windows are wide open, and before I find it impossible to resist the siren call of a full shift to picnic–summer-beach-fresh-everything mode (with some ice cream/pie/cookie breaks, naturally) I wanted to tell you about one last easy weeknight pandemic-era …

[ad_1] Below are the vegetables I used, but feel free to use what you have for all or some. Chinese broccoli or other greens would be great here, or shredded cabbage. Thinly sliced mushrooms, too. Dried (or fresh) thin egg noodles will crisp up best for chow mein, but if …
