Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Handy dandy peach pudding

    • mjes on July 31, 2021

      Peach-a-rama time at the grocers. I ran into this recipe which reminded me of a recipe from Tassajara that I loved 5 decades ago. This is not the time of year to serve it hot ... I went with room temperature which worked nicely. A very nice desert that doesn't overwhelm the peaches but I do want to see if I can find a similar recipe that adds eggs to the sour cream for a more custardy flavor.

  • Pinehurst peach pudding

    • lkgrover on July 03, 2023

      Good peach baked dessert; it is a pudding in the British sense (not an American-style pudding). I thought it was similar to a cobbler. Easy preparation.

  • Roasted rhubarb cobbler with whole-wheat topping

    • TrishaCP on May 08, 2017

      Not my favorite cobbler recipe, and I wouldn't repeat it. The biscuits somehow came out with a grainy texture (maybe the whole wheat flour?) and I didn't like the preparation of the rhubarb that much either.
