Farro with Wild Mushrooms
We don't get to eat much food identical to what the ancient Romans would have eaten, which is one of the things that makes farro so fun. They must have had mushrooms and fermented cream back then, so it's easy to imagine Cleopatra and Mark Antony enjoying this farro with wild mushrooms recipe.
The John Collins Cocktail
The John Collins cocktail is similar to a Tom Collins but features bourbon whiskey instead of gin. It still mixes in club soda, simple syrup, and lemon juice to make a refreshing cocktail. Serve with a straw.
Vegan-Friendly Caramel Buttercream
This is a rich, caramely buttercream frosting, which pairs perfectly with a simple chocolate cake, or frost an apple cake for a sweet Autumn treat. This icing can also be made with standard ingredients such as milk and butter. It makes enough to frost one two-inch layer cake, or 24 cupcakes.
