Baking with Scott – Red, White & Blue Bread
Dec 11th
The 4th of July is the time and Scott bakes the Red, White and Blue bread, featuring red cherries from Traverse City, Michigan and blue berries in a white dough. The bread is so good it’s like the jam is already in it, another ingredient is honey straight from the flowers of Colorado. Also good to go along with the holiday bread and the long weekend are some granolas, Sally Anne’s Whole Wheat Pancake Mix and fruit syrups from Oregon and another favorite the fresh brownies made new every day.

3 Minute Gourmet – Chocolate Soup
Aug 14th
Chocolate Soup: Chef Long shows us how to make this sweet dish right at home. In a pot mix and simmer brewed coffee, cream, Kahlua, brandy (soaked with cinnamon sticks), and sugar.
In a bowl place fresh berries (raspberries, blueberries, strawberries), mint leaves, and add a cube of chocolate cake (find recipe for chocolate cake at : www.epicurious.com)
Add chocolate to pot and stir with a spoon. Add some cornstarch water mixture and continue simmering.
Next add a thin layer of chocolate to the top of the bowl and top off with more berries, mint leaves and whip cream. Finally pour soup mixture into the bowl and watch the chocolate melt into the final deliciously presented dish of chocolate soup.
Also recommended by Chef Long is the tasteful Chocolate Passport wine by Lido Wine Merchants.
