Pastry for double-crust 9-inch pie ¼ cup sliced almonds 3 Tbsp arrowroot powder ¼ tsp cinnamon ¼ tsp ginger ¼ tsp allspice ¼ cup honey 3 cups cherries, a mixture of different varieties, with pits removed. If using canned, drain syrup

Preheat oven to 350º F. Prepare the pie crust in the baking tin. Line the bottom of the crust with a layer of sliced almonds.

Mix arrowroot and spices in large mixing bowl. Stir in cherries and honey. Pour into the pie crust. Cover with the top crust.

4 cups flour 2 cups warm water 1 Tbsp salt 2 tsp yeast ¼ cup honey

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve 2 tsp honey in the water. Stir in the yeast. When it is starting to foam, add 3 cups of flour, one cup at a time, mixing completely after each addition. On the third cup, add in the salt as well. Dump the fourth cup of flour onto the clean counter, then dump the dough on the flour and knead it. You may not need to knead in all of the flour, just until the dough is no longer sticky clumps. Knead the dough until it is smooth and stretchy. Coat the inside of the bowl with oil, coat the outside of the dough with oil, put it in the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for 30 minutes or until doubled.

Roll out the dough into a large rectangle between ½” and ¾” thick. Drop globs of honey randomly onto the dough. Don't spread it in an even layer. Roll up the dough into a log and form into a loaf. Grease the inside of the bread pan and put in the dough. Cut a slash along the top of the loaf. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Put the bread pan in the oven, then set the temperature for 350° F. Bake for 40-50 minutes until the top is a deep golden brown & the loaf sounds hollow when you tap the bottom.

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Have corn on the cob that is still inside the husk. Put it in the oven, straight on the oven rack, and cook for 30 minutes.

It comes out very sweet, tender and flavorful, a different taste than when the corn is boiled. Leaving the husk on while it's roasting traps in the moisture.

A classic and old-fashioned frosting that's thick and marshmallowy.

½ cup sugar ¼ cup corn syrup 2 Tbsp water 2 egg whites 1 tsp vanilla

Mix sugar, corn syrup and water in a saucepan. Cover, heat to a rolling boil over medium heat. Uncover and keep boiling rapidly until it reaches 242 on a candy thermometer, or it forms a firm ball which holds its shape until pressed when dropped in cold water.

As mixture boils, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Pour the hot syrup very slowly in a thin stream into the egg whites, beating constantly on medium speed. Add vanilla, beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Variations

Cherry Nut: Stir in ¼ cup candied cherries and ½ cup chopped nuts.

Chocolate Revel: Stir in ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips or 1 ounce of baking chocolate, coarsely grated.

Cocoa: sift ¼ cup cocoa over finished frosting and fold in.

Fruity: Use any fruit juice instead of water.

Honey: Use honey instead of corn syrup.

Lemon: Substitute 1 Tbsp lemon juice for the vanilla and beat in ¼ tsp lemon zest.

Maple Pecan: Stir ¼ tsp maple flavoring and ½ cup chopped pecans into Satiny Beige frosting (below).

Peppermint: stir in 1/3 cup coarsely crushed peppermint candy, or ½ tsp peppermint extract.

Pineapple: Substitute 1 tsp lemon vest for the vanilla, and stir in 1 can (8 ounces) of crushed pineapple, drained.

Pink Mountain: Use maraschino cherry juice instead of water.

Raisin Nut: Stir in ¼ cup chopped raisins and ¼ cup finely chopped nuts.

Satiny Beige: Use packed brown sugar instead of of white sugar and use ½ tsp vanilla instead of 1 tsp

Tea: Use any kind of strongly brewed tea instead of water.

This recipe is from my grandmother, and I believe it's the original cookie recipe that used to come written on the Special K boxes.

1 cup corn syrup 1 cup sugar 1 cup peanut butter 6 cups Special K cereal

Put your cereal in a large bowl, and lay out a large sheet of waxed paper.

Bring corn syrup and sugar to a boil until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and mix in peanut butter.

Pour over cereal and mix well. Spoon cereal into cookies on wax paper and cool.

Substitute whatever cereal you like.

2 cups of apples, pears, stone fruits, and/or berries—fresh, canned, or frozen ¼ cup honey 1 ¼ cup water, fruit juice, or a combination 2 Tbsp flour

2 eggs ½ cup applesauce 1 ¾ cup flour 2 tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt ¾ cup milk or nut milk ½ cup honey

Preheat oven to 350° F.

If using canned fruit, drain the liquid. Use the liquid to partially replace the water, if desired. Place fruit in a buttered 9×13” pan.

Place water in a small saucepan. Add ¼ cup honey to taste and stir in the 2 Tbsp flour. Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 minute. Pour over the fruit and set in the oven.

Beat together eggs, applesauce, and ½ cup honey.

Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add in 3 alterations with the milk to the egg mixture. Pour over the fruit and bake for 35-45 minutes.

I have no idea if they are actually Canadian; that's just what they're called.

1 cup dark molasses ¼ cup packed brown sugar 1 tsp vinegar 2 1/3 cups flour 2 Tbsp fresh grated ginger root 2 tsp baking soda 1 egg ½ tsp salt

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease cookie sheets.

In a large bowl, stir together the molasses, brown sugar, vinegar, and egg.

In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, ginger and salt, then add to molasses mixture. Mix until well blended.

The dough is very sticky, so keep your hands wet with water to roll the dough into little balls.

Place balls on cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. They spread a lot while baking. Bake until edges are golden, about 8-11 minutes. They should be kind of gooey still but noticeably cooked. Let cool on pans for 5 minutes before removing, they use this time to set/finish cooking.

8 cups filtered water 1 cucumber, about 8” long

Run the cucumber through a juicing machine. You should get about 1 cup of juice. Discard the pulp. Combine juice with the water. Served chilled.

For a brighter flavor, add ¼ cup lemon juice or lime juice, and ¼ cup sugar or honey.

A sweet potato or yam olive oil salt pepper

Set the oven to 450° F.

Wash the sweet potato and make sure you dry it very well.

Cut the sweet potato into sticks and put them in a large bowl. Sprinkle salt and pepper onto them, tossing them to mix. Then add a small amount of olive oil, just enough to make them seem moist, tossing them to coat.

Pour them onto a baking sheet, drizzling any oil mixture that got to the bottom of the bowl.

Space the fries out so they are not touching (this will make them more crispy) and bake for 15 minutes, flip them, and bake for 10 more minutes.

Cook them just a few minutes less on each side if you want them less dark and crispy.

2 cups warm herbal tea ¼ cup honey 2 Tbsp yeast 4 cups white wheat flour 1 tsp salt 1-2 Tbsp edible flowers, dried or fresh

Dissolve the honey in the tea and sprinkle the yeast in. When the yeast is foamy, add it to 2 cups flour. Let rise until about doubled.

Add the rest of the flour, the salt, and the flowers. Knead for about 10 minutes, with more flour as necessary.

Coat the bowl and dough with a thin layer of oil and let rise, covered, in a warm place until about doubled again, but not for too long.

Form into a loaf. Spray the inside of your oven or put in a pan of water.

Put loaf in oven while it's preheating to 350° F, and bake for about 1 hour.

Some flowers, like lavender, are available as a culinary herb. Fresh edible flowers can sometimes be found at grocery stores in the refrigerated section with the fresh herbs. Also look for herbal teas that are made with flowers. Small, aromatic seeds such as fennel seeds are a good addition, or seeds from flowers like poppy seeds.

You can also harvest flowers and blossoms from your garden. Not all of them are sweet. I like chive flowers and squash flowers. Be sure you look up your flowers online to see if they are edible.
