"I have been a huge fan of Jamie VanEaton, aka Cleochatra, for absolute yonks! Not only does she have excellent low carb recipes and advice, she's wicked funny! I just recently started low-carbing again after a long and unfortunately kilo-gaining hiatus, and these rolls may just be the answer to life, the universe and everything! I make a triple..."

"The first time I tasted this was at a friend's house a few weeks ago. After I raved about her salmon she proudly told me it was a Zaar recipe (I'm the Zaar pusher in our group of friends. I made this myself last week, but didn't have any peach preserves so used orange marmalade instead. Another hit! I used some White Zinfandel for the wine an..."

"Perfect, perfect, perfect! I saw Nigella Lawson making the most gorgeous cupcakes on TV and wanted to try them as well. She used instant royal icing. Get that in this country, no way! So I went digging here on Zaar. Most of the recipes here call for meringue powder, again, not to be found here. This recipe is purely from scratch and made..."

"I actually worked backwards when searching for these cupcakes. I planned to make royal icing (for the first time and needed something to ice. These looked easy enough. While I wouldn't say these were the most spectacular cupcakes I've ever eaten, they are easy and quick to make and make a very good base for royal icing. I will make these agai..."

"My stepdaughter and boyfriend came back from Nepal raving about momo, so I had to give it a try and we had these as part of our family Friday night supper last week. Not having access to kosher yak meat ;- I used ground beef. I minced up the onions, 5 cloves of garlic (not 3 and a healthy dose of Microplaned ginger and added it to the beef. I..."

"My stepdaughter and her boyfriend spent a lot of time in Nepal last year and came back raving about momo. I made this as a treat for them, but it came up with mixed reviews. The dough is great, mixes up easily and is a cinch to manipulate into wrappers. It was a bit dry during the mixing so I added an extra teaspoon of oil. For the filling I u..."

"This was so much fun to make! The only major change was that I used smallish pumpernickel rolls, so everyone had their own individual serving. We don't eat Worcestershire sauce so I used a bit of soy sauce instead. Everyone loved this, I thought the capers were the best bit! I made this as one of my Thank You reviews for the Cameraless Chefs g..."

"So simple, so refreshing, so tasty! I salted the cucumber first and let it sit for a bit and then gave it a good squeeze to get out most of the moisture. The only real change I made was to use labaneh instead of the yogurt, it's a bit more tangy and a lot thicker than yogurt. I topped the whole thing with some za'atar and practically scarfed it..."

"Richard, I didn't change a single ingredient in your recipe (down to the canola oil, but I took your advice in the description and gave it a shot, shot of Amaretto, that is. Wowza, yowza, and all the other exclamations ending in za! I served for our Sabbath lunch, slightly warm with some homemade vanilla ice cream on the side. At the risk of ..."

"We were given a gift of a huge box of sweet potatoes by a friend of mine who lives on a kibbutz, and I've been making sweet potato everything, soup, mash, even cottage pie. Last night we tried these rolls, although the kids insist they are muffins. I like the fact that the recipe uses yeast. The only change I made was to use soy milk so these w..."
