Get the latest Sumptuous recipes from Group Recipes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/tag/sumptuous This is a rich and decadent soup, ideal for a dinner party! http://www.grouprecipes.com/106157/decadent-crab-bisque.html Recipe by Yotam Ottolenghi: "No apologies, this is totally over the top. Just close your eyes and savour the sumptuous richness." http://www.grouprecipes.com/93481/dark-chocolate-mousse-with-baileys-and-mascarpone-cream.html There are a lot of steps to this flavourful, vegan pasta dish, but you can do a lot of the prep ahead of time. The onion / garlic puree can be easily made up to a week ahead, and the chickpeas will keep their crunch for a day or two if kept in a container like a cookie tin - NOT a plastic bag! The toast takes only minutes (though it bust be served immediately), and can be done at the same time as the chickpeas by adding the bread tray to the oven when there are 15 minutes of roasting time left. http://www.grouprecipes.com/92992/summer-pasta-with-broccoli-rabe-and-croutons.html I like to call this "last date bread" - you get onions and garlic together in this baby, and boy, does it pack a wallop! It stinks up the house something wonderful at any rate, so even if you do wind up dining alone, the aroma will caress you all night long! I reccommend red onion for both the sweet flavour and the colour contrast it gives to the bread, but if you have a Vidalia, use her!! Adapted from Baking Bites (http://tiny.cc/PCJtp), where Nic writes: "The bread is great with butter and is equally good with jam, which contrasts its oniony flavour" http://www.grouprecipes.com/92435/caramelized-onion-garlic-and-sesame-bread.html Make it for the entire family .. my dad and i weren't able to finish it all alone since the rest of my family was away... specially my chocoholic sister.. who missed it! http://www.grouprecipes.com/72992/insanely-chocolate-chocolate-chip-cake.html A single-layer, quick and vegan cake that I made to turn into the now infamous "cake balls". I wanted the flavours to be strong enough to compete with the dark chocolate I have covering them. http://www.grouprecipes.com/64313/where-did-the-rum-go-cake.html A favourite dimsum item is steamed sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf. This stovetop version does not require steaming or any lotus leaf but is just as sumptuous and tasty. Serve with Chinese brocoli on the side and you have a light super. http://www.grouprecipes.com/55939/savoury-sweet-glutinous-sticky-rice.html From the American Home All-Purpose COOK BOOK circa 1966 Just like Mom made. http://www.grouprecipes.com/43641/baby-angel-food-cake.html Too good to be true! A friend of mine gave me this recipe. I love it! http://www.grouprecipes.com/38269/ginger-and-caramel-mousse.html Buttermilk biscuits with a touch of sassiness! Potatoes, cheese, pepper and BACON?? You bet!! Just try to avoid burning yourself while savouring this warm from the oven! http://www.grouprecipes.com/36082/pierogi-puffs.html
