    I was wondering if some links are deliberately disabled, or if there’s some kind of mistake? I was on your “Best Fluffy Pancakes” page (wonderful-sounding recipe, by the way! I’m going to try it tomorrow with blueberries), and tried to look at some of the linked pages, but they came up password-protected. “pancake Tuesday recipes” and “eggs benedict” were two of the links that I tried and yielded the sign-in page. When I copied the link for the “pancake Tuesday recipes” page instead of clicking on it, I got the following URL: https://cafedelitescom.bigscoots-staging.com/best-pancake-recipes-shrove-tuesday/

    I just thought I’d let you know in case you meant for the links to be working links.

      Hi Jean, thank you so much for letting me know, I have fixed up the links, they should all work now. Enjoy! Xx

    For the carrot cake, do I drain the canned crushed pineapple?

    1. Karina Carrel says:

      Hi Kathie, Yes, drain it lightly but donโ€™t squeeze it completely dry! You want to keep just enough of that moisture so the cake stays super soft and not soggy. Xx

    I’m so looking to trying your recipe for Sticky Oven BBQ ribs!! One question, though…In th instructions, you explain why it’s better to cook them low and slow and say to have the oven at 275 F.
    However, when I went to print the recipe, I noticed that the temperature was 350 F.
    So…which one is the best to use?
    Thank you!
    Heather

      Hi Heather! Great catch. If youโ€™re not in a rush, you can definitely bake them at 275ยฐF for that super tender texture. But honestly, I normally just go with 350ยฐF because itโ€™s so much faster and gets dinner on the table in about two hours. Since they bake tightly wrapped in foil, the trapped steam keeps them plenty soft and juicy even at the higher heat. So it really just depends on how much time you have today! Hope you enjoy them!

    The search feature seems to be broken on your website. I love all your stuff though especially the butter chicken.

    Re: Your smashed potatoes.
    They sound delightful. BUT…we are only 2 people; do you have a way to scale down this recipe? thank you@
