Welcome To The Toasted Nut
Welcome to the world of delicious surprises! Have you ever bitten into a cookie and thought to yourself, “This just isn’t that good.” I decided to change that by offering an alternative. Join me in a quest to find that food you remember from your childhood. I have searched for those recipes and tweaked them so that they create an explosion in your mouth of memory and surprise. Food really does taste that good – we just have to rediscover it.
There is no mystery in good food creation. You simply take the very best ingredients, focus on retaining freshness, and tweak the recipe so that it becomes better than anything you remember. That is where the magic happens – in the recipe. I look forward to sharing that food with you.
The Original Four
About Miss. Peanut
Once upon a time, not so long ago, lived Miss Peanut who liked nothing better than to cook up a storm and feed the people around her. Miss Peanut had received many blessings in her life and this was her way of giving back. One of Miss Peanut’s blessings was a handsome Brazil Nut who liked to make her a Martini on Friday night. Life was good until Mr. Brazil Nut took over the family fortune. “Miss Peanut!” barked the Brazil Nut. “Why are the food bills so high yet the cupboards so bare?” Miss Peanut fluttered her long eyelashes at Mr. Brazil Nut to distract him until she could come up with a good answer. “Perhaps”, she mused, “we could sell some cookies to restore the family fortune?” Mr. Brazil Nut was so taken with Miss Peanut’s smile that he did not even notice that she had come up with the perfect solution. And Miss Peanut and Mr. Brazil Nut lived happily ever after.
