Hi everyone! I am always curious how some of these recipes turn out. I have copied many of them, but only made a few. Has there been something that you are SO VERY GLAD YOU FOUND and it is now part of YOUR recipe book? I know taste is subjective, but if a certain recipe is really outstanding, wouldn't it be great to find out that many others found it to be also? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" />

I tried Peconic's (Brian) recipe for a ham brown sugar glaze and it is now my favorite. I made no changes. I also tried a scalloped potatoes recipe that also is now my favorite. I did add some sharp grated cheese on top as my only alteration of the recipe.

I too have often wondered about other TTOL'ers experience and comments about recipes.

I fixed Brian's Coconut Chicken Curry and it is quite delicious! We'll definitely have it again.

My vote has to go to Contessa's Apricot Rum Cake!
every guest we have served it to has raved about it!
and we have served it to maybe 30-40 people, at different times, now!
There are NEVER any leftovers!
we brought two to a New Years Eve Party this year...
One chocolate, one yellow cake... both were GONE before dinner was even served!
OK, a lot of people had "the munchies"... nudge, nudge... wink, wink...

I've made BigJim's poem tenderloin recipe several times (the marinade with beer, vermouth, etc). It was great and I'll continue to make it! I've also made it on the grill.

OK, I found the scalloped potato thread, so now tell me which recipe on there did you use and like? Also, I can't seem to find the brown sugar glaze. Any help with that? Thanks!

This is the brown sugar glaze: (Peconic I believe posted this). I could not find it either. It must have gone into the black hole of old messages. Here it is:

1 cup brown sugar
2 tbsp water
1/4 cup butter
3-4 tbsp cider vinegar
1 tsp dry mustard

Melt butter in saucepan, add brown sugar and water and bring to a boil for about 1 minute or until sugar is melted and no longer grainy (will be very thick). Remove from heat and add cider vinegar and dry mustard. Brush over ham during last half hour of cooking time (uncover ham) and keep repeating as the mixture cools and thickens until it is all used on the ham. Can add cloves to sauce.

The scalloped potato recipe I believe was posted by Pony??. But it is the one with mayonnaise and ended with Hungarian sweet paprika. The mayo really gave it a good flavor.

I hope this helps you. I thought both were great recipes.

I've made mini versions of this cake as holiday gifts. Everyone loves them!

Thanks Pam, I wasn't sure which glaze you were referring to...
I'll post it by itself, I believe I posted it last time under another thread, and couldn't find it myself...
