"This Brazilian breakfast treat is usually served around Christmastime. Being soaked overnight, it makes for a festive holiday brunch item. Cooking the toast long enough for the outside to get crispy still leaves it with a custard-like interior that melts in the mouth. This recipe comes from Chow, by Aïda Mollenkamp. I haven't tried this recipe..."

"Breakfast Frittata. Eggs baked together with cheese and other ingredients to create a very pizza-like breakfast dish. VERY good and easy to modify with your own ingredients.

If you are fortunate to have access to these large, beautiful banana leaves, plan..."

"These were made for me last Christmas by a friends mother. She made them so delicately and with such love that I was inspired to make them myself after my visit to her home. They are very addictive, and believe me when I say that you can't just eat one. I actually had about 7 while I was at her house, and my stomach was just about ready to explode..."

"This is one of my husband's favorite "Comfort Foods" (he's Colombian). He even said I made it right the first time I tried! The process is relatively involved - overnight marinating is recommended and it steams for three hours. It is nothing like Mexican Tamales or "Hot Tamales". These are wrapped in banana leaves rather..."
