Ham Pot Pie

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on January 22, 2016 by Katie ZellerOctober 23, 2017
Ham Pot Pie

We’ve all (or at least most of us) had our share of frozen pot pies – usually chicken.

This is different.

For one thing it used up the rest of our holiday ham.

For the other I used purchased puff pastry and only for a … Continue reading.....

Zimsterne; silence

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on December 9, 2015 by Katie ZellerOctober 7, 2017
Zimsterne

I had thought that Zimsterne were a Swiss cookie…. At least, that’s what my mother told me. She had a Swiss grandmother.

But borders were a bit blurred back then, around and before WWI. When I looked up the origin of the cookie I discovered … Continue reading.....

Ginger Chocolate Chip Cookies; lake update

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on December 7, 2015 by Katie ZellerOctober 7, 2017
Ginger Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Think of these as Ginger Snaps (old-fashioned cookie) meet Chocolate Chips and fall in love.

I can’t get chocolate chips, of course, but you get the idea.

When one can’t buy chocolate chips one makes chocolate chunks.

One of the first kitchen utensils I bought … Continue reading.....

Butterscotch Ice-Box Cookies

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on December 4, 2015 by Katie ZellerOctober 7, 2017
Butterscotch Ice-Box Cookies

I would call these Caramel Refrigerator Cookies, but it’s my mother’s recipe and she called them Butterscotch Ice-Box Cookies, so there you have it.

Whatever they’re called they are really easy and have a great caramel (butterscotch) flavor.

The best part is they can be … Continue reading.....

Peanut Butter, Oatmeal, Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on December 2, 2015 by Katie ZellerOctober 7, 2017
Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

I’ve decided to re-post my favorite Christmas cookies. The original posts are so old that they’re not really ‘searchable’ on Google, Bing, etc. (wrong format – don’t ask).

Besides, they’re so good and so easy they’re all worth sharing again, right?

And these could really … Continue reading.....

Baked Ham with Mustard Sauce; how much is too much?

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on December 19, 2014 by Katie ZellerDecember 19, 2014

Baking / roasting times for hams (and turkeys) are all over the charts…. And I’m not doing a chart.

For a ham the number of minutes per pound depends on whether it’s boneless or bone-in, fully cooked or not cooked and the weight of the … Continue reading.....

Butternut Squash Gratin, What’s on your table?

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on November 13, 2013 by Katie ZellerMay 10, 2017

Are you a traditionalist or an innovator when it comes to the holiday menu?

Do all of the same dishes have to be on the table in the same way every year?

Is some deviation allowed?

Are a few new dishes permitted?

Or is there … Continue reading.....

Sliced Pork Tenderloin with Mushrooms and Mustard; Happy New Year

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on January 2, 2013 by Katie ZellerAugust 10, 2013

Happy New Year!

It's been kind of a dizzy week, so I'm trying to get organized, remember where I am and what I did, and catch up on food, photos and blogs.

And, of course, pet the puppies….. Photos to follow.

You may have noticed … Continue reading.....
