Char Siu (cantonese red-braised pork)

Char Siu is a celebrated Cantonese dish made of honey-glazed roast pork, marinated in red rice fermented tofu, hoisin sauce, five spice, soy sauce and honey.

Many cuts of pork can be used, although I recommend pork butt or shoulder.

This is my favorite way to make pita bread. Pure, fresh-milled, Ancient einkorn wheat makes a fine, soft, golden yellow flour. While the dough is a little more tender and sticky than a modern wheat dough, making it a bit harder to handle, it’s incredible flavor and soft texture is well worth the extra effort. Einkorn pitas are a delicious plain, with hummus, yogurt, or as base for gyros and other wrap sandwiches.

Strawberry shortcake

Biscuits – from the Latin biscoctus, meaning “twice-cooked”– go back at least as far as the 1500s. The first biscuits were made from three basic ingredients – flour, water and salt – and cooked until they were hard, dry and tasteless. These compact bricks of bread, which the British called hardtack, were given as rations to soldiers and sailors because they could travel the world without spoiling.
