Food.comI made this for the first time this year for Thanksgiving and it fit in perfectly with the holiday menu. Great change of pace from that old pumpkin pie. I got the recipe from a Taste of Home book. Rave reviews is what I got and requests for the recipe. Serve warm with a little whipped cream and decorate with half of a gingersnap cookie and you have a great thing going on! Do not use the cake mix with pudding.Food NetworkWhen Amirah Kassem was in the throes of opening her New York City bakery, Flour Shop, she took a break one afternoon to bake a cake for a friend’s son’s birthday. She’d made plenty of cakes for friends in the past, but this time was different: After she baked a full set of bright rainbow cake layers, she cut a hole in the center of each and filled the inside of the cake with multicolored sprinkles. She imagined an explosion of sprinkles when the cake was cut — like an edible version of all the piñatas she’d seen at parties while growing up in Mexico. “When the birthday boy sliced it open, it was a total paparazzi moment,” Amirah says. “Everybody pulled out their phone to take a picture.” Realizing she had a hit on her hands, she added the creation to the Flour Shop menu, and the cake exploded again — on Instagram. Famous fans like Beyoncé, Katie Holmes and Kelly Ripa shared photos of it, and Instagram called out rainbow and unicorn cakes as a top trend, using a Flour Shop cake as an example. Amirah shared the recipe (from her book, The Power of Sprinkles) so you can make one yourself!Food52At our house, one menu that regularly makes an appearance is Lemon Linguine with Cajun Shrimp. The recipe, from "The Summer Book" by Susan Branch is tweaked to our tastes by swapping Pecorino for Parmigiano and increasing the hit of lemon in the linguine, as well as upping the Cajun seasoning on the shrimp. It's a bed of lemony pasta spiked with a few green onions, parsley, tons of black pepper and a sprinkle of freshly grated Pecorino -- the ideal showcase for the best of our local jumbo Gulf shrimp.
