My #1 must have in the kitchen
I used to buy flavored olive oil and they can be very pricey so I decided to create my own and now my family uses it as much as I do. I purchased 4 bottles from the thrift store @ $1.50 each (steam cleaned them) and the garlic, red hot peppers, and peppercorns at Island Pacific supermarket. I gave a couple as gifts for Christmas last year.
Earl Grey shortbread cookies
I was up early today drinking my green tea wondering what to bake and came across Claire Robinson's Earl Grey shortbread cookies on www.foodnetwork.com. I read the reviews that were mostly 5★'s and began baking. I used black tea as many reviews changed their teas and I added 1tsp of almond extract and 1tsp of butter flavor to boot. The cookies are more than I expected I agree they are ★★★★★!!!
