Gluten Free Chocolate Angel Food Cake

My first attempt at gluten-free cooking. The cake came out a little on the dryer side with the gluten free flour so I’ve edited the recipe by decreasing the amount of dry ingredients. If you find that is too dry after baking, drizzle some raspberry liqueur or raspberry syrup over the cake.

Chocolate Tequila Cupcakes

Sake Marinated Salmon Salad

You do need to make the vodka the day before… The longer it sits the better it gets. Or you can just buy Limoncello, but a) its presweetened, so if you make this you control the sugar content and b) the russian in me just always has vodka in the house. PS These are non-dairy.
