Peach Blossom Day although a cooler season in California's Central Valley has
slowed down the trees for a few weeks. The almond bloom is at its peak though,
a sight as striking as snow in the desert. Home Baking Makes Memories Click here to forward this email | |

FROM OUR RECIPE BOX – Almond Milk Rice Pudding ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Almond milk made from almond paste and water is a refreshing beverage served in Mediterranean countries during the heat of summer. Here it adds a creamy richness and delicate almond flavor to slow- cooked rice pudding. (Do not substitute Marzipan, which would make the pudding too sweet.) Serve this pudding dusted with ground cardamom, or cinnamon, if you prefer. We also like to serve it topped with finely diced ripe pineapple, dried apricots or fresh berries. | |

FROM OUR RECIPE BOX – Rainbow Cookies ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This festive “cookie” is really a cake. Like many classic petit fours, Neapolitans are thin layers of rich butter cake sandwiched with jam. Almond Paste in the batter keeps the cake moist for a week or more at room temperature, a month or more when frozen. Don’t be daunted by what appears to be a complicated cake. Now that smaller baking sheets (9 x 13 inches) are available, it is easy to make uniform shaped layers. Divide the work into two stages. Make the cakes and layer them on one day. Ice and cut them another. A rich chocolate coating is traditional in bakeries where these Rainbow Cookies are sold. Chocolate fudge icing would also work well. Traditional during the end of year holidays, we like to serve these at special occasions year round. | |
