March 2025, and no excuses, St, Patrick’s Day means celebrations with friends, lots of laughs and toasts to the talented and fun-loving Irish among us.

I thank my forever friend, Kim Woods for the recipe.

Kim starts with fresh corned beef, see recipe at Buzzsavoriesllc.com, and if roasting corned beef doesn’t fit into your time schedule, buy it already roasted and sliced.

Serve simply with fresh grapes, olives, dill pickle, chips. Prepare for 2nds and 3rd because this small slider claims a place in St. Patrick’s heavenly joy.

Orange Citrus Salad

Orange Citrus Salad

February and the Nebraska winter is taking its toll. I’m worn out from facing the cold and the added annoyance of wind. To lighten my dreary outlook on the month, I turn it over to citrus. Citrus reigns over the vegetables and the fruits in February. I’m seeing fresh, juicy oranges and grapefruit and lemons and limes. I scoop up two handfuls of each and three bananas. Every thought turns to the crisp, clean flavors to come and my entire being is yearning for Vit C and other health benefits of citrus.  

To highlight these noble fruits, Buzz Savories offers a fruit salad with a lemon and Buzz Savories local honey blended into a salad dressing. The combination of citrus and the lemon/honey dressing lingers lightly on my palate, and I feel grateful for February and the gift of citrus.

Remarkable Roasted Salmon with a Nut Crust

Remarkable Roasted Salmon with a Nut Crust

Before I tasted a salmon fillet with a Nut Crust, I most often thought the salmon-for-dinner day was boring because no matter how I roasted, baked, sauteed, grilled the salmon, it tasted the same meaning not much flavor. Salmon with a nut crust recipe brings salmon to my table because it tastes so good!

 

I’m describing Salmon with a crust made from nuts. Nuts add crunch to every bite, and Hazel nuts or walnuts or almonds with a drizzle of honey, Spicy Beer Mustard and fresh lemon juice a fresh, bright flavor. The roasting method is “no-fail.” I tested the recipe with thin fillets and also 1 1/2 inch thick salmon steaks, and each time the salmon was cooked perfectly, the crust toasty and flavor bright with a tang of lemon. Salmon at its best – the result.

Honey Grahams - A Christmas Cookie

 Honey Grahams taste crisp, honey sweet, and fresh.  Buzz Savories artisanal honey flavors these wholesome  cookies, and the recipe could not be easier to make and to roll out and bake.   

For special occasions, I blend the 2 ingredient Baker’s frosting then dip the surface of the cookie into the dish of frosting and add the sprinkles for a Holiday vibe.

Honey-grahams make a satisfying and nutritious snack. These cookies  taste delicious with a glass of milk, juice or a cup of coffee.   I think you and your family will like them too.

Best Country Pot Roast Seasoned with Spicy Beer Mustard and Horseradish

Best Country Pot Roast Seasoned with Spicy Beer Mustard and Horseradish

Have you ever tried to make sense of a hand written recipe written by a family member?  In this instance, my mother’s recipe for a one-pot dinner that  announced autumn like falling leaves– The Pot Roast! I remember the  fragrance of carrots, potatoes and onions, and chuck -roast  melding together during their long roasting process.
November arrives, and I wanted to share the dining experience of my mother’s pot roast with you for 4 reasons. (1) the flavor and satisfaction of a true comfort food (2) ease of the making and the roasting (3) one pot means simple clean-up (4) leftovers turn into sandwiches or reheat easily.
After my difficulty deciphering mother’s recipe, I needed answers to these questions – What cut of roast? How long does one brown each side? How much liquid goes in the pot? What kind of liquid? How long does it roast? Proper temperature for roasting?
I can hear her saying, “You were often in the kitchen while I was making this roast so why don’t you know the answers to these questions?” I remember helping with the prepping, and my tasks were all-consuming, peeling potatoes and onions and carrots. I missed the seasoning, browning and roasting parts.
My solution for researching recipes is my usual – Ask Ina Garten. The recipe that you will see in the Buzzsavoriesllc.com recipe section for The Best (Betty Best, my mother) Pot Roast with Vegetables is structured like Ina Garten’s pot roast recipe with a Betty Best twist.
Thank you Cousin John Best for suggesting (more than once!) a blend of Spicy Beer Mustard with Horseradish. Ina Garten agrees. Her recipe includes a whole grain mustard (Spicy Beer Mustard) and Horseradish mix to spread on top and bottom of the Chuck Roast before roasting, and this addition to my mother’s recipe really works!

Baklava

Baklava

Hello, and may I introduce you to Lori Reiner, a friend of mine in Holdrege whose reputation for her Holiday pastry – Baklava – grows with every Christmas, and may I add, her Baklava has acquired exceptional value also in the nonprofit world. Lori bakes trays of Baklava for Holiday fund-raising events, and one tray often yields hundreds of dollars for the Cause, a testament for excellence, I think.
She generously agreed to share her recipe and her baking skills with us at Buzz Savories. I “sweetened” my request by offering her several jars of Buzz Savories honey to use in the recipe. The Greek pastry, Baklava provides a test for the quality of the honey because honey is a primary ingredient of this flaky, sweet and delicious pastry.
Because Baklava offers a fabulous flavor experience, I thought the making process must be complicated. Seeing Lori deftly roll out the Phyllo dough (buy it frozen at your grocery store) gave me courage to try the simple recipe (4 ingredients). Besides being interesting and fun to make, my version also looked like a piece of fine art and tasted as sweet and crunchy as Lori’s.
Follow Lori’s easy recipe for Baklava, and with Phyllo pastry, chopped walnuts, Buzz Savories honey and butter, you too will be expert at creating this ancient and marvelous pastry.

Happy baking and eat well,
Betty Anne at Buzz Savories

Chopped Autumn Salad with Honey and Apple Cider Dressing 

Chopped Autumn Salad with Honey and Apple Cider Dressing

Family and Friends, Feast and Football all come together on Thanksgiving Day for us in Holdrege, Nebraska. This year, football owns the day after our Thanksgiving feast – all the better.
I am planning a simple and easy Thanksgiving menu, and I will join the circle of fun and pleasure instead of flitting about last minute in the kitchen. My plan for fine food served with ease and minimal clean-up is doable with the Chopped Autumn Salad and a Honey and Apple Cider Dressing.
The Autumn Salad shouts crisp autumn days and mellow flavors –  Honey Crisp apples, crisp bacon, crunchy pecans, diced red onion, dried cranberries and a bright sweet/sour dressing speak cool days and ruby red leaves drifting under the oak trees.
I prepare the dressing ahead 2 days prior to our feast and combine all components except the apples on the day before the feast day.
Ten or 15 minutes before serving, chop the apple or apples – no need to peel them. Toss all in a large bowl, add the dressing then chop the salad and serve.
The Chopped Autumn Salad is earning 5 stars in my salad retinue because the dressing tastes clean and bright and light and fruity. The chopping task required some thought and a Chef’s knife. Although new skills for me, the chopping is easy and fun to do (can’t go wrong).
I’m learning to prefer a chopped salad because with every bite I taste the variety of ingredients and over-the-top flavors. The extraordinary dressing plays a major role in the salad and due to the chop technique, every bite includes a taste of the dressing. Serving is easy for the diners.

Mildred’s Marvelous Meatloaf 

Mildred’s Marvelous Meatloaf

October and the prairie scenery shifts from vibrant green to a dusty bronze highlighted with brilliant streaks of copper and scarlet. See Photographer, Don Brockmeier’s photo of sumac, a leafy bushy plant growing quietly in the ditches until autumn when green turns to scarlet, and then sumac plays a starring role in the autumn panorama. 

Buzz Savories welcomes autumn and the change of seasons on the prairies with an uncommon recipe for meatloaf – Mildred’s Marvelous Meatloaf.  
I am recalling conversations with Mildred Casey Nelson, the recipe maker and a neighbor and mother of my childhood friends, Clark and Keith. Conversations with Casey, as I knew her, were interesting to me because we spoke of “grown-up” topics like politics and books we were reading. Casey always welcomed me, and her cooking and recipes were among the finest in a neighborhood of Swedish cooks and bakers.
Mildred’s Meatloaf raises the common meatloaf to a succulent entre’. A glaze created by Nebraska’s renown Chef, Bernard Schimmel crowns Mildred’s Meatloaf and adds even more goodness to taste. The recipe for both the meatloaf and the glaze comes together with ease, and leftovers turn into top-notch sandwiches.
I feel honored that her family shared this recipe with Buzz Savories. I thank Mildred-Casey Nelson for this recipe and for her many contributions to our community, our neighborhood and to me.

I wish all Buzz Savories readers and cooks a happy autumn and as always, eat well!
