You can find them at every donut store in LA but I didn’t find out until I was older that they were a local thing

I didn’t want for good food in the UK but the one thing I missed and first thing I went for back in LA is a guava cheese danish

The cheese stretched and pulled when I bit but it was still solid enough to slice clean. Probably could have fried for 30 seconds longer

Broccoli Cheddar Soup with Garlic Croutons
Soup served in a crock with croutons and cheese on top

Once heated through, I added the rest of the chicken stock and some half & half. Simmered to desired consistency, adjusted seasoning, and added the small florets for the final few minutes. Immediately before serving, I added most of the sharp white cheddar. Fried garlic chips & croutons for garnish

I blended down the roasted veggies with half of my chicken stock. Meanwhile, I sweated the onions and garlic in the remaining garlic oil. Some flour to make a roux and dry vermouth to deglaze. Then I added in the blended vegetable mixture.

I roasted the large veggies in salt and more of the garlic oil until the cut sides are satisfyingly browned. If you buy whole broccoli, this is a nice way to use the stalks.

I must be out of my mind because I made broccoli cheese soup yesterday despite the heat. Anyway I started by infusing some garlic oil and making garlic croutons from old bread. Carrots, broccoli stalks, and the larger florets all halved and washed. The small florets washed separately.

Some homemade vanilla cookies for a banana pudding/cream pie project I’m doing. The oversized and misshapen ones were toasted further and pulverized for pie crust
