Homemade Egg Noodles
I learned to cook many things from my grandmother. One of the family favorites was noodles, however Grandma taught by handfuls and pinches of this and that. I since have tried to convert to US measurements. My grandmother would be 102 if still living.
Blueberry Liquor
Infuse alcohol with frozen blueberries and make a delicious blueberry liquor that makes a wonderful gift. It's best to use frozen berries rather than fresh ones due to the organic breakdown that occurs when the fruit is frozen.
Best Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Tender leaves of cabbage are wrapped around a hearty sirloin and rice filling and topped with a homemade tomato sauce in this family-friendly recipe for stuffed cabbage leaves. The hint of allspice and slight tang from vinegar create a perfect balance in this dish. They remind me of eating at a Lebanese food festival, although not quite as spicy. Serve with Greek salad or tabouli salad and warm pita for the perfect bite!
