I love Bon Appetit magazine, so much so that I dedicated a whole category to it.
What’s even better is that I tear recipes and ideas out of each issue (a ritual that I adore) and store them in a manila folder. Then, on days when I am feeling adventurous and need inspiration, I open said manila folder and flip through the pages. The folder gets fuller with each passing month and it never fails to offer me exactly what I need.
Some have a crystal ball; I have a manila folder.
Last week, I was in the mood to bake something fun and quick, and these popovers were the perfect idea. What are popovers, you ask? Well, they are light, hollow bread rolls made with an egg, milk and flour base, and they’re a great substitute for bread during dinner.

Notes: Make sure to use enough butter when greasing the muffin tin and remove popovers from tin as soon as they’re done baking - they tend to stick. Best if consumed immediately or at least on the same day. Also, I believe that the recipe would benefit from a tablespoon or two of sugar so the flavors would stand out more.
Where do you get your cooking inspiration?
I rip up my magazines just like that to pull out recipes that I want to make too. Love BA!
I used to tear pages from magazines, too! Never had a manilla folder, though. I get my cooking inspiration first and foremost from the seasons — whatever looks best at the greenmarket will be the main ingredient in my next kitchen adventure. I also read a lot of blogs and bookmark my faves…so I guess you could say I have an electronic manilla folder
