Basics
DIY chai
Chai shortcut: keep the base in the fridge then combine with milk and sweeten to taste then serve hot or iced.
bread-and-butter pickles
No fancy canning methods for this, just a few days in the fridge for the best pickles ever.
hef’s black beans
Roll in tortillas, put in a quesadilla, or offer alongside grilled steaks and sliced tomatoes.
pastry for a double-crust pie
For best flavor and texture, this pastry has both butter and shortening.
