These sourdough ciabattas have been an integral part of our Sunday breakfast ever since I first baked them. They have an intense aroma, an open crumb, a crispy crust and bring back memories of our last vacation in Italy. If you want to bring summer into your kitchen,...
Thumbprint cookies are one of my favorite cookie recipes because they not only taste sweet and buttery, but also have a fruity and tart jam center. In Germany, the cookies are also known as Husarenkrapfen, Husarenknöpfchen or Engelsaugen. The name Thumbprint Cookie...
