Rum cake, empanadas, short ribs corn bread, chocolate bark – Nancy has a day job, so she spent much of holiday season doing some early-morning cooking. The point was to let the flavors mingle all day before "show time" later in the evening.
The most challenging? Nancy couldn't resist making puff pastry for empanadas (yeah, she could have bought the dough ready-made, but that's the coward's way out). First she had to find lard – never used it in her life. Food Giant came through. The dough itself was a minor major production: Mix flour and water, roll it out, spread lard on top and fold the dough in thirds like a letter; repeat this twice. The result: thin layers of dough that will puff up and expand as it bakes.
It worked, and Nancy can scratch it off her list of must-dos!
