Cocktail O’Clock: Easter Sunday Breakfast

Ya’ll already know we like to drink our Easter eggs, so here’s one more option for you: a creamy, yolk-y, vodka-y concoction you can nurse while the kiddies are looking for the Easter eggs (hide them well — you’ll want a second round).

Selma Cocktail

2 parts Kanon Organic Vodka
1 part heavy cream
3/4 part amaretto
cardamom pod
egg yolk

Lightly crush cardamom in shaker, add liquid ingredients, dry shake (without ice), then shake with ice, strain into rocks glass.

Plate It or Hate It

Recent food world discoveries the ES crew is loving and hating

Plate It: Creamed Honey

We love honey. We hate how it sticks all over everything. Creamed honey is pure honey that is crystallized so that it changes texture; you get a smooth, creamy product that spreads like butter and doesn’t drip-drip-drip all over everything like that pedestrian un-creamed honey. Brilliant. (Available at http://www.shopbot.co.nz/)

Hate It: Push Pop Cakes

The latest mom blogger craze picks up where cake pops left off. Come on, foodie moms — please stop sacrificing practicality for cuteness. That is not how you eat a cake. Push it up and things start to fall apart once you take your first bite.  (Photo: kristin_a)

Plate It: Travel-Size Brie

Finally. We no longer have to fly with just Laughing Cow. Quality doesn’t compare to regular brie, but it’s sure better than no brie. (Available from Ile de France)

Hate It: Rachael vs. Guy Celebrity Cook-Off
