I am not much of a baker, that may be changing. From the Best of Bay View cookbook I tried your mango bread recipe this morning and was amazed at how easy it was...plus the bread came out so moist and tasty. I am always looking for ways to use fruit and veggies in recipes I can put in my childrens' lunch boxes and this bread is it. Not too sweet, just the outstanding taste of mango. Next time I will try it with nuts. I am looking forward to making other dishes from the Best of Bay View Cookbook such as the your Beef Tenderloin w/ Red Wine Sauce and Rosie's Fried Green Tomatoes or Fried Eggplant...yum ! 

Thanks for a great collection of soon to be favorites.

Kahveh, Caffe, Java,  or Bay View Blend- call it what you will. Coffee is an integral part of American social and office life. 

The beverage was first cultivated in Ethiopia and became wildly popular in the Arab world in the early 15th Century.  The majority of coffee is now exported from South America with Arabica beans garnering 80% of the market share compared to caffeine-packed Robusta beans' relatively small 20% market share.

Whole bean coffee retains its freshness longer than ground, but all coffee is affected by light, heat, oxygen and moisture. As soon as the bag is opened or the seal broken on the container, staleness starts creeping in. To reduce this impact, transfer the beans or the grounds to an airtight container and store in a cool, dry, dark place such as a refrigerator. The longer coffee is exposed to oxygen, the more it is robbed of its taste.  For even fresher coffee, grind only what you need for each batch!

The flavor and aroma of coffee are comprised of 400 chemicals. Amazing, huh? The process for removing caffeine from coffee without disturbing the taste is time consuming, complicated, and less than perfect. Even decaffeinated coffee contains a miniscule amount of caffeine remaining.    

Coffee can be enjoyed in many ways, and takes on different personalities by using flavorings--before or after brewing. Add ground cinnamon, cocoa powder, chocolate syrup, bits of vanilla bean, citrus peel, figs, etc. to ground coffee just before brewing for a natural taste. Pre-flavored coffees are created from beans that have been evenly sprayed prior to packaging. Of course, there is always the option of adding flavored creamers and sugar to each cup for that perfect flavor. 

Bay View B & B prides itself with its own private blend of coffee. Meticulously crafted for a rich but smooth taste, we have served thousands of cups to our guests.

Iced or hot, solo or complementing a special dessert, Bay View Blend will please the most discerning coffee gourmet. Pack a bag in your suitcase before leaving Bay View, and order bags throughout the year for yourself and your friends on our website.
