Hazelnut Cupcakes
I’m (almost) ashamed to say that I got this recipe from Joy the Baker, a site I love, love, love. I so admire her stunning recipes and pretty, flirty blog, I can’t believe I screwed up the first recipe I made from it. Well, actually not the recipe, which is easy-breezy and perfectly written, but…
Garlic Soup with Vegetables, Ham, & Fried Egg
Another egg. I know! But what can I say? Garlic soup ladled over a fried egg is a classic dish and one of the yummiest things on the planet, so there it is. I added vegetables and ham to the soup, because I had vegetables and ham to use and I knew they’d rock with…
Apple & Pear Galette
You can thank the asparagus & leek tart (below) for this treat. The original pie crust (pate brisee) recipe makes two crusts (I halved it for the posted recipe), so I had extra dough sitting in the fridge. I brushed over it a couple of times, thinking I’d probably make another quiche and freeze it….
Farmily
If you’ve read my blog for any length of time, you know that I love visiting my aunt Mary and uncle Bruce’s farm in west-central Minnesota. If you’re a new reader – welcome! – and here’s why: Beauty. Stillness. Warm, buttery scones with softly scrambled eggs and browned sausages….
Momofuku Milk Bar Compost Cookies
Second dessert in a week? Not my usual, since I tend to favor savory over sweet, but I had a special reason. My 3-year old nephew Cooper spent a few days with us and Cooper loves (wuvs) a good cookie. Plus, I’ll admit, I’ve had this funky recipe on my mind since I read it…
Reaching for Spring – Asparagus & Leek Quiche
Here’s usually why I make quiche – I have no dinner plan, so I start a mildly panicked foraging in my refrigerator – a refrigerator that rarely lets me down, thank goodness – and discover a treasure of forgotten vegetables. Yes! If I score a half-eaten block of cheese in addition, I’m so jamming. And…
Part III: Molten Chocolate Cakes
OK, last post invoking my friend Andrew Zimmern’s name, I swear (thanks to AZ for letting me borrow a bit of his burnish – I might just subliminally throw his name into my blog whenever I need a little infusion of attention since people jump all over it). But seriously, I had to include a…
Part II: Andrew’s Endive & Leek Gratin
I mentioned below that part of the dinner we made for Rishia & Andrew Zimmern was an endive gratin. Several years ago, we had the Zimmerns over for dinner and I’m not sure why, but I had several heads of endive in the cooler. I also had half of a loaf of challah bread, and…
Eggs Baked with Breadcrumbs, Scallions & Cream
These are technically shirred eggs, which are eggs baked whole out of the shell. But since I don’t like the word shirred, I’m just calling these baked eggs. This recipe is based on another beauty from Marion Cunningham’s The Breakfast Book (I’ve said before that it’s a lovely book; I still mean it). I riffed…
Part I: Braised Crispy Pork with Caramelized Onion Gravy
It might be warming up outside, but I’m still in comfort-food mode, all the way. Apparently so are our friends Rishia & Andrew Zimmern, because when we decided to have dinner together last night, Andrew’s mind was on braised pork with gravy and an endive gratin (more on the gratin later). Thank goodness, since as…
