Challah with Honey-Rosemary Butter
Tender, egg-y challah bread is lovely on the Thanksgiving table. Not only is it pretty, but it harkens back to my mom’s yeasty homemade crescent rolls, but for about one-tenth of the effort. The honey-rosemary butter plays nicely with turkey, squash, and stuffing. And everything. Challah Makes one large loaf 4 c. bread flour (unbleached…
Thai Omelet in Coconut Curry Broth

My son Nathan and I spent our summer Sundays eating our way through Kingfield Farmers Market. We did it last summer too and got in such a fun groove of eating together, visiting with friends, and stocking up on all of our favorite treats for the week. It’s worth noting that it was a much…
Meatloaf
When I started asking food friends what they think makes a great meatloaf, three separate people said ask Chef Stephen Trojahn of Gastrotruck, because his smoked meatloaf sliders are amazing. So I sent him a note, and he kindly shared the following tips! 1. Start with excellent, grass-fed beef. 2. Test & taste your mixture…
Dutch Apple Pancake
This pancake is meant to be served with a dusting of confectioners’ sugar, which is lovely, but I’ll be honest…a generous drizzle of Sapsucker Farms maple syrup, with a tidy pile of crispy bacon, is a very, incredibly awesome way to usher in fall. For my gluten-free friends, I did a little experiment using gluten-free,…
Baked Lemon Pudding in the Hamptons
The day I arrived at my inlaws’ home in East Hampton, John’s dad made one of his famous dins, this time spinach souffles with rock shrimp sauce followed by braised beef short ribs with couscous. For dessert…this luscious lemon pudding. God I love lemon desserts – better than chocolate. Yeah, I just said that. The…
Crepes with Warm Blueberry Sauce
I bought the loveliest local blueberries at the market last week, as plump and pretty as as my Grandma Meyer. I got them home, popped a handful in mouth because I’m greedy, and was shocked to discover…sour! Oh so sour! So I dumped them into a saucepan with some (not too much) sugar and turned…
Tour de Farm Chicknic at Riverbend Farm, July 31, 2011
Sweaty, delicious partying is in full swing in Minnesota, whee! Given our short al fresco season, we are maniacal about eating outside, mosquitoes be damned. From food trucks to farmers markets, patios to farm dinners, food just tastes better in the hot sun. I’m personally full to bursting with beautifully prepared local food, courtesy of…
July 4th: Red, White & Gluten-Free
July 2: John & I returned from Provence, France (post forthcoming, sometime in 2011, gah). July 3: I hit the Minneapolis Farmers Market, hard. Five racks of Bar 5 ribs; Blue Gentian Farm lamb chops, sausage, and eggs; many pounds of greens, carrots, beans, herb, berries, onions, garlic scapes, potatoes, and general fabulousness. Oh lovely…
Garlic Soup with a Fried Egg
Think of this soup as comfort food with a kick. The garlicky broth is mellow and sweet, ready and waiting to be made sublime with a fried egg (because a fried egg makes everything sublime…right). I added warmed sausage, white beans, and arugula because that’s what I had in the fridge (see recipe below). Simmer…
Savory Pancakes Part I: "Crepes" with Crispy Potatoes, Greens & Creme Fraiche (Gluten-Free, Grain-Free)
OK, I’m going out on a limb here, but…I declare it summer. I know, we’ve had no spring at all, but that’s how we roll…0 to 104 degrees F (yes, we reached 104 this week!) in the blink of an eye. Very Lamborghini, Minnesota, perhaps without the sex appeal. But no matter – it’s relatively…
