Busy Cooks In the Spotlight | More Topics | Top Picks |   from Linda Larsen This revised and updated glossary contains many of the cooking and baking terms beginning cooks and bakers don't understand.

This ever-growing collection of food definitions will help you navigate the language to make you a better cook and baker. Bookmark it so you can refer to it when you have questions. And if there's a term here you'd like defined, email me and I'll add it.              More Topics Lemon Pound Cake Ham Filo Roll Carne Asada Sandwiches Kitchen Reference Bacon Pizza All About Chicken All About Crockpots Everyday Menus: Garlic Crockpot Chicken Stew You know there's nothing better than coming home to the warm and wonderful aroma of dinner cooking. Unless you have a maid or butler, that doesn't happen when you're a working person. Unless you have a crockpot! This delicious recipe is so good for you too - it's packed with barley and vegetables.   My Recipe Box I've received an email or two asking where the recipes are on the site. Here they are!

Take advantage of technology, and put these appliances to work for you. From the bread machine to the pressure cooker, you will probably fall in love with a gadget, and it will change your life! Well, not really, but it will get you out of the kitchen faster. And that's the point. 1) Kitchenaid Mixers and Accessories Kitchenaid is the brand I choose for mixers. I have a stand mixer that allowed me to make divinity for the first time in my life! It's sturdy and hardworking and I wouldn't be without it. You'll be astounded at the list of available accessories. Whether you choose stand mixers or hand mixers (I have both), Kitchenaid brands won't let you down. 2) KitchenAid Mini Food Processor I rely on my mini food processor. The bowl capacity is large enough for all but the biggest jobs. And I love the easy cleanup. Make pesto, bread crumbs, appetizer spreads, and more with these tiny, efficient appliances. 3) Breadman Bread Machines Bread machines were first introduced in the 1990s and have become a kitchen staple. I love my Breadman machine, with its delayed timer start. It makes an excellent loaf, and when I want to make rolls or a shaped coffeecake instead, I just let the bread make the dough, then shape it myself. It's better than buying frozen dough!   Best Moves in a Bad Economy Save & Invest the Right Way Find out how to beat a bear market, make smart choices, and keep your cool even when the economy is unpredictable.
