Beautiful madeleines at 101 CookbooksPosted Aug 24th 2007 8:33AM by Marisa McClellanFiled under: Dinner, Baking, Raves & Reviews, On the Blogs, America, Comfort Food, Real KitchensI started reading blogs sometime around the beginning of 2003 (looking back, it seems inconceivable that there was ever even a time when I wasn't reading blogs, so thoroughly have they become part of my life). One of the very first food blogs I discovered and read consistently was 101 Cookbooks. Heidi's writing, creative recipes and gorgeous pictures kept me enthralled and I still shout a little internal 'yay!' when a new post from her pops up in my RSS reader. When her book, Super Natural Cooking, came out I tried to hold out for a major gift-giving holiday, but didn't last a week before placing my order. I think the picture (that you see above) that she posted on Tuesday of a pan of madeleines, some of the molds empty and all the cookies flipped to show off their ridges is just gorgeous. I admit that my fascination with her (actually, her friend Lanha's) madeleines might have something to do with the fact that I read Swann's Way last semester for my Narrativity Theory class and so am very conscious of the madeleine's ability to evoke a taste memory. Proustian references aside, this recipe confirms what my next kitchen tool purchase will be. The only question is, do I buy the classic size, or the mini?
