A Quick Guide For Making Your Own Smoothies

Thyme for Cooking Posted on October 31, 2020 by KateFebruary 23, 2021

The closest thing to a smoothie I have ever had is an Orange Julius. (Are they still around?) I know smoothies are popular and a lot of people love them. To be honest, when I used my blender to make something that was drinkable, it was usually frozen margheritas. Sometimes it was frozen daiquiris. I remember one hot summer’s day racing our boat all over the lake looking for raspberries … Continue reading →

COVID-19 and At-Home Cooking Habits: Statistics Show Significant Change

Thyme for Cooking Posted on October 17, 2020 by KateOctober 17, 2020

With the rise in coronavirus cases worldwide I thought this was an interesting article. Our cooking habits haven’t really changed. We have always cooked and made dinner every night and sat at the table, with cloth napkins and lit candles to enjoy it. Our shopping and eating habits have changed, though. I’ve switched from going every week to every 2 weeks and even then I do about half of the … Continue reading →

How to Bake a Cake From Scratch: A Guide

Thyme for Cooking Posted on October 8, 2020 by KateOctober 12, 2020
Chocolate Cake

My mother was famous for her cakes. She always made either Angel Food cakes or chocolate layer cakes for our birthdays – our choice. I always chose the chocolate layer cake with chocolate fudge frosting. She made birthday cakes and wedding cakes for anyone and everyone in our small town. The only cake from her extensive recipe box that I ever made was Devil’s Food – with the chocolate fudge … Continue reading →

4 Ways to Cook Salmon

Thyme for Cooking Posted on September 19, 2020 by KateSeptember 30, 2020

When I had an offer by someone to write an article on salmon cooking techniques I thought – why not? We eat a lot of salmon, maybe I’ll learn some new tips. I like the marinade for the baked salmon – I don’t use honey often enough. And I rarely (read never) use the broiler…. So there are a couple of nuggets for me. The rest is pretty straight forward … Continue reading →

Cookware Advice for new Kitchen Owners

Thyme for Cooking Posted on September 17, 2020 by KateSeptember 18, 2020

I’m not sure if this info is just for new kitchen owners….. Many of us who spend time in the kitchen love exploring cookware options. I started out with a ‘set’ of Teflon coated pots and pans in ‘Country Brown’. It lasted a couple of years until it was replaced with a ‘good’ set of stainless steel cookware purchased with my winnings from our wedding trip to Reno…. Wedding trip … Continue reading →

Drink hot coffee to cool down?

Thyme for Cooking Posted on September 3, 2020 by KateSeptember 4, 2020

More about coffee? I drink a lot of coffee…. It’s a subject and beverage I hold dear. But hot coffee in the heat? (Or even hot tea?) Well…. We played a lot of golf when we lived in Andorra. Andorra is not actually big enough or flat enough for a golf course so they put it across the border in Spain. It gets hot in Spain in the summer. On … Continue reading →

Healthy Meal Prepping Tips

Thyme for Cooking Posted on August 29, 2020 by KateAugust 29, 2020

Most of you know that I’m a planner and list-maker. I have been doing a weekly menu for as long as I’ve been cooking. My mother convinced me to do it. She never did and at least 4 nights out of 7 she would be debating with herself what to ‘cook for supper’. In fairness to my mother she also didn’t do the weekly shopping. My father did, and he … Continue reading →
