Hey guys, it’s Courtney again from Courtney’s Sweets and Know Your Produce! My family has a thing for Lemonade and most recently my daughter asked what other fruit we could use to make lemonade.

Coconut Milk Options: For the creamiest and thickest results, opt to use full-fat coconut milk. That said, you can also use low-fat if that’s your preference.

They are almost always interchangeable. Not surprisingly, coconut cream will make your easy coconut curry even more thick, creamy, and rich....

The tangy flavors of Korean BBQ have been sweeping the nation for years now. We absolutely love it. I think I’ve mentioned several times that my dad lived in Korea as a young adult for a couple years so I’ve grown up fascinated by Korea in general. When my husband and I were newlyweds we lived near a Korean restaurant and loved to go to it. We were usually the only non-Koreans in the restaurant and the waitress would question our orders because usually non-Koreans stuck to a limited menu selection....

Tomatoes: Use San Marzano style tomatoes in this recipe for best results. This means that the tomatoes come from a very specific region of Italy, or if labeled “style, come from the same type of tomato. Normally canned tomatoes are of the roma variety. San Marzano tomatoes are known for having a bolder tomato flavor and are slightly more sweet. If you want to use fresh tomatoes in this recipe, you’ll need to peel them....

Is Pure Pumpkin The Same As Pumpkin Purée? If you’re new to baking with pumpkin, you may be unsure of what to look for at the supermarket. Pumpkin purée is sometimes labeled as 100% pure pumpkin, solid pack pumpkin, or even simply pumpkin. What’s important here is what’s on the ingredient list — you’re looking for only pumpkin and definitely not pumpkin pie filling. You don’t want to add any unnecessary artificial preservatives, added seasonings, or extra sugar into this recipe....

Sweetened vs. Unsweetened Coconut Flakes: We tested both types of coconut flakes for this recipe, and you really can’t go wrong with either! We prefer the added sweetness and crunch that sweetened coconut flakes bring, but you can always use unsweetened if preferred. Egg Substitute: The egg in this recipe helps to bind the flour on the chicken to the Panko and coconut mixture. If needed, you can substitute with heavy cream or melted butter....

Did you know that some kinds of butter have a higher fat content? Why would you care, right? Well, the fat content of butter can not only taste better, but it can work better in baking and pastry making. It’s that science part of baking. I used Plugra butter in this recipe in order to utilize their higher fat content in these butter-based biscuits. The result is a flaky, butter biscuit topped with ooey, gooey, chocolate gravy....

Slicing Potatoes for Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes: The easiest and most uniform way to slice potatoes is with a mandoline. If you don’t have one, you can use a slicing blade attachment on a food processor. If you don’t have either of those tools, you can always use a regular chef’s knife. Slice your potatoes in half, lengthwise, to create a flat, stable surface for cutting. Then simply use your knife (the sharper the better) to cut the potatoes as thinly as you can....
