All pics are of my cornbread–I did not take a camera into the Bakery with me. With 2 small kids I think I’d have to be crazy to attempt that! Have you been wondering what Twitter can do for you? 2 weeks ago I posted some comment or question about my trip to Atlanta and…
Cornbread Take 2: Featherbed Eggs
No matter what paroxysms of joy are brought on by various cornbreads over the next months (years) investigating The Cornbread Gospels, the book’s most useful contribution to my life will probably be the myriad of leftover cornbread recipes it provides. Especially because I am one of those cornbread fans who completely overindulges in an attempt…
Dairy Hollow House Skillet-Sizzled Cornbread
You guys might remember that a while back I picked up a vegetarian cookbook called Passionate Vegetarian by Crescent Dragonwagon. She apparently caught wind of my post, and actually emailed me about it. She was extremely complimentary about my post (truly I did a happy dance around the kitchen when I got her email) and…
The Power Of Garnishes: Sopa Tarasca (Tarascan Soup)
There are 6 “flavors”–well actually I think the Japanese and potentially other cultures say there are more–but there are 6 that I can discern: sour, salty, sweet, bitter, hot and umami/savory. Hot is not really a flavor to me, despite what I just said. Umami is kind of nebulous–I know that I like it but…
Pan Seared Shrimp & Scallops Over Bacon-Corn-Chile Relish
2009 may be forever remembered as The Year I Got Over My Problem With Seafood. Some of you who know me quite well may be wondering how on earth that happened? Well, Alex happened. She just so clearly loves seafood and I wanted to foster her love of ALL foods, so I started looking for…
Roasted Summer Veggie Salad with Lemon Tomato Herb Vinaigrette
Our regional (I woud say local but I have to drive to Columbus or Cincinnati) used bookstore chain had a big sale last week. And to make matters more tempting, there were different coupons for each day. And I have 2 locations within an easy drive of me (versus Columbus). OY. Serious damage was done….
Sabzi Dhan Shak (Parsi Spicy Squash & Legume Stew)
Before we get to the food, I just wanted to say thanks to Josie for all of the help while she was here. John has been gone, and that can get rough with 2 toddlers. She extended her stay until yesterday, when my parents visited, and she helped with dishes, dogs, kids, you name it….
Oh The Things We Do For Love: Shrimp & Scallops With Warm Tropical Fruit Salsa and Corn On The Cob
Have any of you ever tried to learn to cook a food you did not like? That’s me and shrimp. When it was only me and John, I figured he could just occasionally order shrimp in restaurants–similarly I never ate duck at home because he did not like it much. But now we have kids…
Cooking To Combat Cancer III: Ancho Spiked Scarlet Runner Bean Soup With Vegetables
How awesome is it, for a foodie anyway, to be back in your own kitchen, cooking away? My friend has a fabulous kitchen, albeit probably designed by people who did not cook much and thus it has some quirky flaws, but in general it was gorgeous, spacious and “easy to operate” (I cooked for them…
