I think Claire says this one best: “These melt-in-your-mouth dinner rolls, from Claire Saffitz’s cookbook Dessert Person, are even more tender and pillowy than the classic Parker House rolls that inspired this recipe.

Lemon Meringue Cake for moms birthday! This was my first time cooking with preserved lemons, and they were very good. In a dish like this, they were essentially a more pronounced lemon flavour. I’d love to try them in some more dishes though
