I love flaky biscuits — homemade ones are always the best. Growing up, biscuits and gravy were a staple. I miss that. Lately I’ve been grabbing whop biscuits from the store, but it’s time to make them from scratch again and top them with a delicious sausage gravy. Link: kingarthurbaking.com
TIL you can soften cold butter fast with just hot water and a glass. Fill it, wait 5 min, dump and flip it over the butter like a little dome. Ten minutes later — bake-ready. No microwave meltdown. Bookmarking this.
I just had sausage gravy and biscuits for breakfast, but it wasn’t homemade like my family used to make on Sundays when I was growing up. I missed that, but it was still a good breakfast!
I should start making my own butter. Heavy cream, yogurt, a stand mixer — that’s really all it takes. Let it ferment overnight, whip it up, rinse it, done. The possibilities go beyond plain: garlic herb, honey, whatever I’m in the mood for. Can you imagine me doing this? It should be fun, right?
This Biscuit and Sausage Casserole looks so good! Growing up, my family always made biscuits and gravy, and I’ve really been missing that. I’m grabbing the ingredients to try this recipe on one of those Sundays. Yummy! 😋
Ever wonder why you're a picky — or should I say, finicky — eater? I've been asking myself that for years. Turns out, it might literally start before birth. 🤔
I just read a fascinating article by a nutritional neuroscientist — and it turns out my finicky ways were set in motion long before my first meal!
Add in the genes that make certain people extra sensitive to bitter tastes (about 70% of us!), and suddenly my complicated relationship with certain foods makes a lot more sense.
