I have also been looking for a good lemon poppy seed loaf. I wonder if it would be good if I added a lemon glaze to it. I love lemon glaze.

Yes the original recipe actually had a lemon glaze drizzled over it. I just opted to leave it plain. My favorite way to make lemon glaze is to add lemon juice to confectioners sugar and that’s it. If you have never tasted it do try it sometime, it is amazing.

Can’t wait to try this one! An interesting tip I just learned for leftovers/stale cakes (like we ever have that problem!) — seems they have been an essential ingredient in Jewish baking forever. “The Real Secret Ingredient” according to “Inside the Jewish Bakery” by Stanley Ginsberg and Norman Berg, used to thicken, create ‘invisible’ layers to prevent meringue from sliding off, absorbing juices in pies, etc., etc.

We may not get to plant a garden this year because of the virus. Everything is shut down and I don’t know if we will be able to buy plants. We don’t start our own plants from seed unfortunately.
