They need to hold up to a juicy burger with all the fixings. To me, store-bought burger buns just don’t cut it. They get soggy with the first gush of burger juice and squish flat on your first bite.

These machines are truly built to last, and I couldn’t imagine my kitchen without one! And since I know that a lot...

A use for leftovers isn’t pie in the sky

It’s a knish. My husband has a theory: When you decide to buy a new car, everywhere you look, you see that particular model. I don’t know if that’s true, but I can say with confidence that once you make a few hundred pies, everything begins to look like a pie. And that is how I came to define a knish as a kinda-pie, a pastry wrapped around filling. In fact, I put empanadas, calzones and samosas in the same category. It’s all pie to me.
