Blackberry Ribs

PollyJune 27, 2024September 16, 2025

I know this picture looks a bit dry. The ribs are not dry! I was so anxious to take some pictures I forgot to douse them with the leftover Blackberry BBQ sauce, and then everyone had them on their plate,…

Bloomin’ Onion Tear and Share Loaf

PollyJanuary 26, 2024July 17, 2025

You know how you read a recipe and you just KNOW it’s going to be good?  This was one of those recipes—a Sourdough bread round, cheese, butter, green onions and a sprinkling of poppy seeds, baked.  What’s not to like?…

Potatoes Baked in Cream

PollyJanuary 26, 2024December 4, 2025

Did the name of the recipe entice you click on this?! Well then, that makes us friends forever! When my friends from Southern France were staying with us, they offered to make a side dish for dinner.  They didn’t use a recipe. They…

Coconut-Banana Muffins

PollyNovember 28, 2023July 15, 2025

I love muffins and I love all things coconut! I can’t think of anything better on a cool Sunday morning than a warm coconut muffin, a latte, some social media, something to read, jammies, and fluffy slippers. This recipe makes…

Triple Chocolate Mousse Torte

PollyNovember 15, 2023April 26, 2026

This is the cake I wanted for my birthday this year and it’s what a friend requested for her birthday a few months ago. It’s a fabulous trifecta of chocolate: semi sweet chocolate in a brownie-like cake on the bottom,…

Pumpkin-Chocolate Cake

PollyOctober 25, 2023December 2, 2025

This is the BEST cake to serve at this time of year (or any other time of the year, actually)!  It’s a good chocolate cake – a very, very good chocolate cake; it’s moist, and nicely chocolate-y, and made richer with some pumpkin…

Pumpkin Spice Biscotti

PollyOctober 15, 2023January 13, 2026

It’s that time of year—let the fall baking commence! I’ve started with these Pumpkin Spice Latte Biscotti, my entry for my cookbook club’s ‘Pumpkin Dessert Showstopper Challenge‘ last year—sometimes we act like we are contestants on the mythical ‘Great American…

Chicken Pot Pie

PollyOctober 4, 2023April 26, 2026

This is a pretty simple Chicken Pot Pie.  Absolute comfort food!  No spices other than salt and pepper, so the true taste of sauteed chicken and fresh veggies shine whilst snuggled up in a smooth gravy and encased in pastry.  Yummmm!…

About Me

polly of the kitchen

It's all about the recipe—really, it is! I have amassed quite a collection of recipes from my favorite cookbooks, food magazines, friends, the Internet, and more recently my adult daughters. I test every recipe I post. Some I've been cooking for years, decades even, and a few I have made only a few times. I don't post mediocre recipes. I don't post good recipes. I post GREAT recipes! When I find a recipe I LOVE, I can't wait to share it. I started In the Kitchen with Polly on January 01, 2010, a joint venture between myself and my non-cooking but most excellent webmaster, proofreader, technical goddess and all-around bestie, ratty (not a joke—ratty is her chosen nickname—her Mama didn’t do that to her, she did it to herself!). Last year we hit a snag—the website went up in monstrous flames. It took a long time to sort out what happened and even longer to recreate what was lost. Hundreds of pictures gone, and every recipe we posted (300+) over the last 14 years had to be reformatted, many pictures retaken. It's done now though, and we are back! I like this brighter version :) Scroll through! Find something you like, and let's get cooking! There’s a search button and there are also tags to click on if you want to find a recipe for a specific food. If you need it, the print button is on the preview page and at the end of each post.

Enjoy!
