Boscobel Beach Ginger Cake
This is a Jamaican ginger cake. It attracted rave reviews at my church's Valentine's Day tea party. It has been a mainstay at prayer breakfasts, too.
Devils on Horseback
Devils on horseback are a family favorite appetizer my uncle makes. They are a wonderful balance between salty and sweet, with a combination of crispy, chewy, and crunchy textures. My family destroys a tray of these in fifteen minutes. Double or triple the recipe for a large crowd. Serve on top of watercress greens.
Steamed Clams in Butter and Sake
This recipe is the best for seafood lovers. Clams are steamed with sake and mirin and a bit of butter and green onion in this Japanese-style preparation. My husband likes it so much.
