There was always sauce for Tallarines Verdes (Peruvian Green Spaghetti) in the freezer waiting to be used on freshly cooked pasta.

I just had to post it on the blog!]]> 8 Lorena http://cravingsjournal.com <![CDATA[Tiramisu Croissant Recipe with Store-Bought Croissants]]> https://cravingsjournal.com/?p=18699 2024-04-08T01:54:28Z 2024-04-08T01:54:25Z This Tiramisu Croissant will be the star of your next brunch.

Making a tart dough in a pâte sablée style is not that easy but it's not hard either. Once you get the hang of it you'll want to make it over and over again. It's delicious, and sweet and has a lovely cookie texture. My favourite! "sablée" is a French word that means crumbly. That's because when you eat it has a crumbly texture, it disintegrates and melts away. It's not flaky but rather has a tender texture. ]]> 0
