Breakfast may be represented by the second “B”, but in the hearts and minds of many guests, it takes first place. And our B&Bs develop reputations based on beautiful presentation of tasty good food and Alaska-centric recipes.
The Anchorage Alaska B & B Association is sharing recipes at its January meeting, and you get a sneak preview.
This one was submitted by Dee Memoune of Alaska House of Jade in Anchorage AK:

The Story I first tasted this at another B&B and loved it so much I went home and perfected my own
recipe. Guests love it. This will last in the refridgerator for up to two weeks (if it lasts that long).

This is a great dip or sauce for fruit. I made the recipe using 1/2 teaspoon almond extract instead of the liqueur. All at the AABBA meeting tonight enjoyed it.
