| How to Make Pumpkin Pie Spice at Home Posted: 02 Aug 2021 02:15 PM PDT Picture this: It's the weekend and you're baking a pie, not because you have company coming over, but just for fun. You're wearing a thick sweater, thicker socks, and you turn on the oven. While that heats up, you gather ingredients: flour, sugar, eggs, pumpkin purée, and—oh no. You're out of pumpkin pie spice. But don't worry: We can fix this! You can easily make DIY pumpkin pie spice at home using other basic spice staples like cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Ahead, we're sharing a few pumpkin pie spice recipes for when you find yourself in a pinch. Pumpkin pie spice is a cozy, earthy, mildly kicky American spice blend (that, just to be clear, contains absolutely no pumpkin). Even though it isn't made with pumpkin, it's a popular ingredient in pumpkin-based recipes like pies, loaves, cheesecake, and more. It's sold in small jars in the grocery store in the spice aisle, and while it has its moment in the spotlight during fall, you should be able to pretty easily find pumpkin pie spice year-round. So what is in pumpkin pie spice? Odds are, several of the components are already in your pantry. The ingredient list leans heavily on baking spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger, but the specifics depend on the brand. Let's review a few for inspiration:  |
| 10 Unique Christmas Tree Decorations to Fast-Forward Right to the Holidays Posted: 02 Aug 2021 11:09 AM PDT We're only halfway through summer, but given how we're kinda-sorta heading back to normal, we're already itching to get ready for the most wonderful time of the year: the holidays. The season is going to look a little different again due to the pandemic, but that's not going to stop us from belting out holiday songs before flannel season. Hey, we're only taking cues from stores that have started playing "All I Want For Christmas" in July.  |
| Molly Baz's Tuna Sandwich Ruined Us for All Other Tuna Sandwiches Posted: 02 Aug 2021 10:00 AM PDT If you love cross-back aprons and salt, and you know what a Cae Sal is, odds are you're a fan of Molly Baz, recipe developer and the author of Cook This Book. Baz is also a sandwich aficionado, and she's getting ready to share her wisdom with all of us, via The Sandwich Universe, her new podcast with Declan Bond, on the Food52 Podcast Network. We were able to score a little preview of the first few episodes of the pod and find out some of Baz's thoughts on sandwiches—plus, we're sharing a killer tuna sandwich recipe from Cook This Book! Who's ready for lunch? From Our Shop Tuna SandwichFans of Baz know she loves tuna (so much so that she named her dog after it!). Naturally, there's a tuna sandwich in Cook This Book, but it's not the tuna salad sandwich you'd find in a lunchbox. Though there is a time and a place for those as well, Baz's dream tuna sandwich is a bit more exciting. "This was originally destined to be a niçoise salad, my attempt at taking a fresh look at the beloved French classic of tuna, olive, potato, and egg," writes Baz in the recipe headnote. She swiftly realized she couldn't improve on something that's already perfect, so she switched gears: "However, if you take all of those same flavors and rearrange them in the form of a sandwich (sorta à la pan bagnat), then I do have reason to get involved." And thus, her Niçoise Sando With Smashed Eggs & Black Olive Mayo was born. Spoiler alert: there are potato chips inside.  |
| Sohla's Cheesy Mochi Cake Is the World's Most Perfect Snack Posted: 02 Aug 2021 09:00 AM PDT Every month, in Off-Script With Sohla, pro chef and flavor whisperer Sohla El-Waylly will introduce you to a must-know cooking technique—and then teach you how to detour toward new adventures. I like foods with a little chew. I'm endlessly entertained by springy tteokbokki in their spicy sauce. I love sucking up squishy tapioca pearls in boba tea through a fat straw. And every kind of mochi gets me excited, from the ice-cream-stuffed mochi bites at TJ's to pink sakura mochi wrapped in a cherry blossom leaf. Lucky for me—and you! and all of us!—mochi cake is not only simple, but also incredibly adaptable. There's no folding, no sifting, no tempering, no whipping. Once you learn the basic steps and ratio, you can dream up any kind of mochi cake. Lemme show you how.  |
| 12 Ideas to Deck Out Your Small Balcony—Without Sacrificing Space Posted: 02 Aug 2021 05:30 AM PDT Ah, a balcony. The city-living dream. We can give up in-unit laundry, a parking space, and a second bedroom, so long as there's a teeny bit of outdoor space to bask in. It's simply one of those things that make living in a city apartment all worth it, because you've got your own slice of outside without having to actually leave. That said, in most areas, you'll be hard-pressed to find a balcony that's bigger than 20 square feet, which means space is at a premium, and smart solutions for fitting all the things you want out there are essential. While sometimes you'll need to make the tough decisions between bistro table or vegetable garden, bar or outdoor sectional, sometimes it's just a matter of employing smart ways to use the small space.  |
