Hi everyone! I’m reposting this recipe as I have updated it with a picture of the batter immediately after being poured into the hot skillet.

I made up a new recipe last night! This is a pretty common occurrence, but it’s always exciting because of the suspense when you take the first bite. I knew I’d hit on a good one when I wanted to go back and make more as soon as we were done eating. Unfortunately neither [...]

As promised in my previous post, “Five Reasons to Shred Cabbage with a Knife, and How To Do It.”, here is an easy recipe for all of the cabbage that you’re shredded by now. I usually use white cabbage (it’s green, really), but the red cabbage (purple, really) that I had on hand worked just [...]
