Old-Fashioned Vanilla Pudding with Crushed Strawberries
If the only vanilla pudding you’ve ever eaten is from a plastic Jello brand cup, then please make this. It takes about 15 minutes to pull together and will knock your socks off, gone. You can eat the pudding warm right out of the pan (Stephanie style) or chill it for a bit to serve…
The Apple Doesn’t Fall Far from the Tree…and Fried Walleye
I first posted this last year, but the story and pics make me so happy, I’m pulling it up again for today. Happy Father’s Day! – Stephanie I sent my dad an email telling him to check out my buttermilk pancake post and wishing him Happy Father’s Day. This is what he wrote back: I…
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…
Grilled Asparagus Salad with Bacon Vinaigrette
The play of hot against cold, tender against crunchy, preferably with a salty-sweet vinaigrette, hits enough texture and flavor notes to transform a simple salad into a meal. Use this recipe as a formula to play with all summer long, as other vegetables come into the market. Grilled Asparagus Salad with Bacon Vinaigrette Serves 2…
Braised Moroccan Chicken with Saffron Rice
It is so ridiculously easy and delicious to braise a whole chicken that I do it almost every week, just to have on hand for last-minute meals. I’ve posted my recipe for chicken braised in coconut milk before, but not some of the other variations I play around with, so hopefully this post will round…
Pickled Carrots (To Eat on Everything)
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…
Cardamom Cake with Rhubarb Sauce & Whipped Cream (Gluten-Free)

Cardamom Cake with Rhubarb Sauce & Whipped Cream (Gluten-Free) Adapted from a King Arthur flour recipe Serves 8 Note: Although duck eggs are larger than chicken eggs, substitute them equally when baking. 1 1/2 c. King Arthur Gluten-Free Multi-Purpose Flour 1 tsp. xanthan…
Coconut Curry Soup with Shrimp & Vegetables
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…
Chicken Piccata with Radish Ramp & Pea Shoot Salad
We all need to jazz up a chicken breast from time-to-time and this quick recipe, inspired by a Naomi Pomeroy recipe in the Wall Street Journal, does so nicely. I’m a big fan of crispy, buttery chicken skin, so I’ll often ask the butcher to take several breasts off the bone while I stroll around…
White Bean Gratin
If you love cookbooks, and don’t own Sunday Suppers at Lucques by Suzanne Goin, add it to your list. Everything in it is delicious, fresh, approachable. Some of the recipes are longish, but not terribly complicated, and hey, sometimes greatness takes a little effort. I’m down with that. Like this bean gratin. It’s quite simple,…
