Steps:

• For crust: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and sugar. Using a pastry blender, cut in cold butter until mixture is crumbly. Stir in buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a dough forms. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and shape into a rectangle. Wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

• Bake for 20 minutes. Carefully remove paper and weights. Bake until crust is golden brown, about 8 minutes more. Let cool on a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, for filling: In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and salt; whisk in milk, coconut milk, and egg yolks until smooth. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until mixture is thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk in coconut and vanilla.
• Spread filling into prepared crust. Let cool for 10 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly on surface of filling to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until cold and firm, about 3 hours. Just before serving, top with Coconut Whipped Cream. Garnish with toasted coconut, if desired.

POTATO SOUP WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a 4-quart saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the onion and carrots until both are slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the potatoes, milk and dissolved bouillon cubes. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, until the potatoes are very soft and some of them have begun to dissolve into mush. Add the half-and-half, salt and pepper.
• In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups lightly salted water to a boil. Add the shrimp all at once and stir well. Watch the shrimp closely; as soon as they all turn pink, about 2-3 minutes, turn off the heat and drain. The shrimp should be slightly undercooked. When they are cool, peel them, and chop roughly into big chunks. Add the shrimp to the soup and stir well. Serve soup sprinkled with bacon bits and grated cheddar cheese and garnished with fresh dill.
• Cook's Note: If you don't have access to shrimp, use corn.
