Bakesale Betty in Oakland & Cole Slaw Recipe

Thursday, August 4th, 2011

Bakesale Betty, finally we’ve met!  We must be the only ones who hadn’t been to the infamous Bakesale Betty in Oakland.  You order at the counter.  Get a Chicken Sandwich or Salad, a lemon smoothie, and chocolate chip or molasses cookies!  Then you grab an ironing board out front and sit on a stool to chow down!  Their slaw is great.  Our friend Michele told us that their slaw recipe had been published online and we found it!  Check out the photographs above to see just how fine you need to chop the slaw ingredients.  You can even watch a video on how to make the Cole Slaw.

For the vinaigrette: Combine mustard, vinegar and salt in a bowl. Slowly whisk in olive oil until well blended.

For the coleslaw: Macerate onions in red wine vinegar, and let sit at least 20 minutes. Remove onions and discard vinegar. Toss onions with jalapeno, parsley, cabbage and salt. Toss with vinaigrette until evenly coated.

Ad Hoc at Home: Fried Chicken Recipe (current tie for best recipe of the year … so far)

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Zach and I made Thomas Keller’s Bouchon Quiche last fall (“You Can Quiche Your Day Goodbye!”) and found out that Keller’s recipes are labor intensive but incredible.  We decided to make Fried Chicken for a friends birthday this weekend from Thomas Keller’s new cookbook, Ad Hoc at Home. Once again Thomas Keller wowed us with another one of his labor intensive, incredible recipes.  Colonel Sanders watch out!

TIPS:

  • We added a bit more spice to the dredge mixture and it was a great addition with a kick.
  • Start 12-14 hours before you want to eat (the night before or first thing in the AM)! You must brine the chicken pieces first!
  • Use peanut oil for best tasting results but you can also use vegetable or canoloa oil.
  • You will need a deep fry thermometer.
