Chocolate Covered Alfajores

Chocolate Covered Alfajores

For this week’s #BakingWithBeth, we’re recreating one of the most delicious cookies encountered in my travels – chocolate covered alfajores. We first discovered chocolate covered alfajores in Pichilemu during our two week stay at a family run hostel in Chile. The town of Pichilemu is known for the black beaches and waves. One of the many […]

My Love Affair with Macarons

My Love Affair with Macarons

To fully appreciate a story, I feel like it helps to understand the history. This is the backstory behind my love affair with macarons and how it all began. Like all good love affairs, this story involves indulgence, excitement, frustration, tears and, of course, Paris! I remember the first time I ate a macaron. It […]

Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Pineapple Upside Down Cake

For the fourth installment of the #BakingWithBeth series, we’re sticking with the classic, old-fashion cake theme one more time and making a pineapple upside down cake. There will still be more cake throughout the series. And likely Definitely more cakes from old southern and church cookbook recipes. As I’ve let nostalgia guide the beginning of the series, week four is […]

#BakingWithBeth

When I moved back to Los Angeles, I had the specific goal of finding a job as a pastry chef at a restaurant. I felt that it was the best place to continue to build on my technical skills and I could improve in a faster period of time. At the end of November, my […]

End of Summer: State of the Union

Okay, here goes nothing. This post has been written in my head, and talked about with friends for weeks now. Probably more like months. I got a little stuck on how to get back in the swing of things. The last blog post was about the Women Chefs and Restaurateurs National Conference that I attended […]

Women Chefs and Restaurateurs National Conference

May 20, 2016 by Beth Meyer

Women Chefs and Restaurateurs National Conference

A few weeks before I was moving back to Los Angeles, a friend texted me about this Women Chefs and Restaurateurs National Conference, which was taking place the second week I was back. The conference was a little pricey (with all the other moving costs, etc currently), so I debated attending the event for a few days. […]

What Makes a Chef a Chef?

What Makes a Chef a Chef?

It all began one June evening, watching the sunset melt over London at the end of a long summer day. My friend and I were getting ready to enjoy a rooftop film screening. He’s a chef, and I was telling him about the work experience ideas I had for my culinary school course. My plans […]
