Food obsessions. I have them. You might know this since I tend to write about them. The latest is all things pickled, particularly non-cucumber things like beets, cauliflower, and my current holy grail: Carrots. What is it about pickled carrots? It started when I wrote about Corner Table’s CSK box, which included a jar of…

Coconut Curry Soup with Shrimp & Vegetables

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on May 17, 2011 at 9:17am

I get so many nice comments about the Quick Coconut Curry with Halibut & Broccoli recipe that I posted last fall that I thought I’d share a soup version of it that I make when the weather turns warmer. I use shrimp instead of halibut so that I can use the shells to make a…

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Apr 27, 2011 at 6:11pm

Toasted coriander seeds are the flavor of the season for me. My obsession kicked off with Daniel Klein’s recipe for chilled carrot soup, when I prepared the coriander yogurt garnish.

Roast Chicken Sandwich with Pickled Marmalade
