	Perfect Bliss: Malted Milk Ice Cream by Lori Fredrich Using Summer HerbsPerfect Bliss: Malted Milk Ice CreamI'm afraid I ought to warn you. This is probably NOT the place to be if you're serious about that new year's resolution to lose that last ten pounds. I could wax apologetic for you, but it wouldn't be genuine. Cuz I believe with every last ounce of my soul that this ice cream is…	2 votes 1337 views
	Breakfast for Dinner: Green Chilaquiles with Eggs by Lori Fredrich I've never been a big fan of the "breakfast for dinner" concept. I know that other people get a huge kick out of eating a big plate of pancakes at 6pm. But, not me. I prefer my pancakes at 10 a.m., accompanied by a glass of orange juice and a strong cup of coffee.But, I’m not completely unreasonable. In fact, there are certain…	1 vote 800 views

	Hyped Up Shepherd's Pie with Mushrooms and Greens by Lori Fredrich I haven't a single fond childhood memory of shepherd's pie.It's not that my mother made BAD shepherd's pie.

Until sometime this fall.I was inspired by the turnips at the…	1 vote 646 views
	Chocolate Hazelnut Schaum Torte: A Family Recipe Revival by Lori Fredrich Unless you’re from Wisconsin, you may never have heard of Schaum Torte (foam cake), a favorite among German immigrant families.

Essentially all of the desserts are one in the same -- meringue, filled with sweetened whipped cream, and topped…	1 vote 694 views

	Seared Scallops with Creamy Spring Ramps by Lori Fredrich For me, spring is truly marked by the arrival of certain spring vegetables -- asparagus, morel mushrooms, fiddleheads... and, of course, the ubiquitous ramp.Ramps (Allium trioccum), often called wild leeks or wild garlic, are a member of the lily family -- which also includes garlic, leeks, and onions. Resembling scallions, ramps…	1 vote 418 views
	Spring Comfort Food: Mexican Bean Pot with Spinach & Chorizo by Lori Fredrich Spring in Wisconsin is always an interesting proposition. While the weather improves overall, there's no telling what any given day might hold -- rain, flurries, sun, or clouds. It's also difficult to tell from day to day what the temperature is going…	1 vote 480 views
	It's a Keeper: Irish Whiskey Cake by Lori Fredrich We're not the type of people who stand strictly on ceremony when it comes to holiday meals. The reality is, we like to change things up a little bit too much to keep on doing that same things over and over again, just because it's "expected".However, our annual St. Patrick's Day feast is one day when the menu always looks pretty much…	1 vote 467 views
