Eggs and Morels Baked in Cream
To clean fresh morels, dunk them into a bowl of cold water; drain them on a clean kitchen towel. You can substitute 8 dried morels for the fresh: Cover with hot water in a medium bowl. Set a small bowl on top of the mushrooms to keep them submerged. Let the mushrooms stand until soft, about 20 minutes, then lift them out of the water. Using paper towels, gently press out excess liquid, and let the mushrooms drain on a clean kitchen towel.
Muesli with Yogurt
The muesli can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
Truffle Brownies
Store these brownies in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature before serving. You can also make the brownies in an 8-inch-square baking pan (prepare the pan as directed in step 1 of Double Chocolate Brownies, page 541).
Fluffy Pancakes
You can make your own pancake mix by combining the dry ingredients and storing them at room temperature in a resealable bag until ready to use.
