More experimenting with the CSA box contents! The one thing in the box that was a mystery to me, preparation-wise, was the 1/2 dozen rutabagas. I sent out a plea on twitter. I got a lot of good recipes. I decided though, being that I’d never made them before, I wanted to do something simple…
I needed to cook as much produce as I could for dinner. I’m picking up my first CSA box today and it’s going to fill my fridge. I had a huge bag of spring onions from my dad’s garden and a head of napa cabbage that were taking up the most space. Pasta time!! 2…
This is an easy, quick, yummy meal for those days that are just screaming for barbecue. This recipe is for 2 people. 2 trout fillets, each about 1/2 lb 4T Green Peppercorns Olive oil Salt Crust the peppercorns with a mortar and pestle if you have one or zap them a few times in the…
I had some cod I picked up from the Farmer’s Market. It’s not rock cod, it’s a local Monterey Bay cod that is small and thin. The name has escaped me. But it’s a light, white fillet. This recipe serves 2. 3/4 lb white fish fillet 2T butter 2 garlic cloves, finely minced, mushed with…
These are a great party snack. They’re easy to make and wonderful. They have a slight crack-like character in that you really can’t stop eating them! The good thing is they are relatively healthy! 1 c whole almonds 1 c pecans 1 c walnuts Toast on cookie sheets for 5 min. at 375. Lower oven…
You didn’t think there would be all these posts about trumpets without a recipe did you? A lot of people like black trumpets in cream sauces but I’m not a fan of cream sauce. I like to enjoy them simply. All I did was saute them up with a handful of chopped kale and one…
Update (February 2013) My dashi recipe remains the same but I’ve taken to searing salmon and having that as the protein. It’s a perfect combination. I sprinkle the salmon with salt and nanami togaroshi and sear in a hot cast iron skillet. It’s a beautiful thing. Dashi: 6 cups water 6-8 inch chunk of Kombu…
I stumbled upon a recipe on Epicurious.com for lentil raviolis. The thought never occurred to me! I didn’t follow the recipe but made up my own. In a saucepan:2 shallots, diced1 clove garlic, dicedI added a handful of diced pancetta but this could be left out and be a vegetarian dish. If you do what…
I combined a couple of dishes I’ve done in the past and the result was excellent. The first was a dish that I modeled after an Eric Ripert recipe. The second was the Prosciutto-wrapped Salmon I did a while back. This recipe serves 2. First component, the broth.In a small saucepan, drizzle some olive oil…
I always make a double batch of my waffles and freeze the leftovers for quick toaster snacks and breakfasts. Our freezer stash had run out so it was time for a waffle morning. The problem is, it’s winter and berries are my favorite waffle topping! I don’t like just maple syrup, it’s not right. So…
We had three bottles of Syrah to drink: ’03 Cornas from France, ’00 Hardy’s from Australia, and ’02 Ridge from here in the Santa Cruz Mountains. I wanted to make a special dinner for our cousin’s birthday, but we don’t really eat much meat so I had to find something involving fish that would go…
This is a quick and easy, tasty mexican-style dinner. Outside of the guacamole, it’s all ingredients that are easy to keep on hand and you can use fish, shrimp or chicken…even beef I guess although I’ve never tried that. Put 2 dried ancho chiles in a dish w/ enough boiling water to cover them. Let…
Imagine my surprise when I went to link to my waffle recipe and it wasn’t on the site! I’ve got pictures of the waffles on the site, you can get a coffee mug with them on it but I’d never put up the recipe! D’oh! I make a double batch of waffles and freeze the…
