Pompkin Pie
Less sweet than a modern pumpkin pie, it really lets the spices shine and the texture is so nice and smooth, like a firm pudding. This will definitely be a holiday staple for me!
Sachertorte
Absolutely wonderful chocolate cake that isn’t as dry as the sachertorte I had in Vienna, and the glaze isn’t as hard. It’s dense, but not unpleasantly so, very chocolatey, and the apricot adds a layer of complexity
Vinegar Candy
19th century candy that isn’t vinegary at all. The harder version has a more complex flavor that is almost caramelized, and the softer version is more neutral
Betty Crocker’s Pineapple Upside Down Cake
Absolutely fantastic, moist, caramelly pineapple upside-down cake
Ottoman Halva
Delicious confectionaries that have a slight nuttiness and aren’t too sweet, with a texture akin to cookie dough

Cheese-forward and slightly sweet, this puls numbers among the quite tasty ancient dishes
