Here's the results of the fabulous braised cabbage recipe in The New Best Recipe.
I've also now made the bruschetta bread and the basic pound cake with mixed results. Overall the recipe for bruschetta has produced tasty food, but past-prime and incorrect ingredients have hurt perfection. The pound cake was also quite good, but a bit more cakey and flour-ey than I personally like. I suspect this was due to a failure in execution, as mixing the egg-part with the butter-and-sugar part has to be done with great precision, and I botched it because I couldn't pour precisely enough with the bowl I was using. I actually saw the butter-and-sugar deflate because the egg sat on it too long before being mixed in thoroughly. I also probably need more practice folding in the flour, which is the last ingredient added.
