I just have to say that my grocery store had a couple of these in stock – I bought the Fleur de Sel Caramel – it is DELICIOUS! Even worth the 5 bucks for a pint container!

Dear ErinCooks,

Recently I’ve been reading about fruit or vegetable substitute that can be used for certain baking recipes, like sweet breads and muffins, even cookies lieu of eggs or dairy. These suggestions seem to vary and I’m very concerned about taste. Do you follow a general rule when applying substations?

Thanks!
Anna

Dear Ask Erin Cooks:
My name is Nix and I hailed from the East Coast, I grew up in a weird sort of way and I’m not accustomed to how a lot of people eat. I am now happily engaged to, we’ll call him Don Ho. Don is a vegetarian (who does eat dairy and eggs) and we are both looking forward to summer. As I grew up strange and he doesn’t eat meat, we’re desperate for some summer picnic basket or cookout ideas to bring our romance and foodie tendencies into full bloom. I’m writing to you because I know you are a versatile cook who isn’t afraid to try things. In the name of love, Ask Erin, please give us a hand.

I’m wondering if you’ve ever prepared Greek food or Indian food? Do you have a good receipe for either? I am partial to Indian Tandori Chicken, have you ever tried?

ok.. new entries (and a few good questions means I have to up my ante.)

first off… I’ll SEE my previous mentioned hump, and throw in two more. I’m serious. don’t dash my hopes of frozen goodness, woman!

anyways… if it increases my chances (cause the wheat flour, the cinco de mayo and last meal questions have me worried) I’ll ask you this:

given a chance to be featured on ANY television show AS YOURSELF… which would it be? I’m very curious to see if you would follow your tastes by being on a cooking show with your favorite chef, an extremely popular show and get copious amounts of blog exposure, or follow your inner starlet dreams and just be on a show you love, like The Office. of course.. details would be needed.

damn. I don’t think that’s ice cream worthy, but I’m still curious.

Oh, boy, I’ve been racking my brain to come up with a question because I am *drooling* thinking about that ice cream. We LOVE ice cream…actually, one of the first things I fell in love with about my (now) husband — when I first met him — was the fact that he kept his freezer stocked top to bottom with ice cream! Literally: I opened his freezer the first time I went to his house and saw gallons of Breyer’s, stacked top to bottom. *Swoon*…it was a match made in heaven!

So here’s my question: there was recently a book published called “My Last Supper: 50 Great Chefs and Their Final Meal”, where chefs are asked what they would eat for their last meal. Let’s not think of this question as a “last meal” question (too morbid), but rather, if you could have a meal of all your favorite things to eat, what would it be? It can be as long and involved a meal as you like.

Great idea for a giveaway!

I found the greatness that is Haagen-Dazs a few years ago and fell in loooooove! Best ice cream I’ve ever had. The light caramel cone is crack in a container!

My question is: I want to bake with whole grain flour more often. Can I substitute whole wheat flour for all purpose flour in recipes? If not completely, what ratio should I use and are there any recipes I should avoid the substitution in? Love your blog and thank you for such a great give away!
