Cheese Souffle (Gluten-Free)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Mar 3, 2011 at 12:29pm

I’ve been slightly obsessed with food blogger/writer/photographer Kate Sommers adventures in raising chickens in the city of Minneapolis. After a couple of false starts – two hens turned out to be roosters! – she’s now got three hens noisily cranking out pretty, pretty brown, pink, and blue eggs. Probably because I haven’t been very secret…

Chicken Braised in Coconut Milk

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Feb 27, 2011 at 5:42pm

This recipe is a total cheat. It’s the same base as the Beef Braised in Coconut Milk I posted awhile back, with a whole chicken in the pot instead of a beef roast. I’ve been meaning to do this for ages – even last week I picked up a chicken and coconut milk. The store…

Anchovy Butter to Eat on Everything

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Feb 4, 2011 at 7:59pm

I Tweeted my first recipe yesterday, which meant it had to be limited to 140 characters. Here it is: Anchovy butter: Process 1/2c butter, 2t anchovies, 1/2 shallot, 1/2 clove garlic, zest of lemon. Use to fry eggs, top soup or pasta. #jmu612 That’s it! What I couldn’t say in a Tweet is that anchovy…

Bagna Cauda

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jan 18, 2011 at 9:12am

I’m a salty girl, always, but I think my cravings are even more intense in the winter. Lately I’ve been plucking little balls of fresh mozzarella cheese from their whey bath, sprinkling them with salt, and popping them in my mouth like cherries. Good Lord they’re good that way – who needs tomatoes and basil?…

Pan-Fried Cheese with Anchovy-Date Salad

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jan 10, 2011 at 3:12pm

Yes, that is fried cheese. It is every bit as delicious as you’d think it would be – crunchy and melty, a little salty and sweet, pretty much to die for. Thank you Melissa Clark – I asked for her new cookbook for Christmas, In the Kitchen With A Good Appetite, and I’ve been consistently…

In Progress…

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Dec 23, 2010 at 10:40am

I asked my son what he would like for Christmas Eve dinner, something out of our ordinary, something that would feel special. He requested…escargot! How fabulous, right?  I immediately jumped online, ordered the snails, and decided I’d rather not deal with the shells.  The dish that inspired Nathan’s request is Cave Vin’s shelless version anyhow,…

More Tex-Mex: Cheese Enchiladas

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Dec 20, 2010 at 10:46am

Uh, I’m clearly having a Tex-Mex moment. No, I am not pregnant. I’m just cold and wanting to fire up the ol’ tastebuds… And, I reached into Homesick Texan for the chile con queso recipe below, and just happened to pull out a recipe for classic Tex-Mex enchilada gravy as well. What can I say?…

Hearty Chicken Chowder for a Blizzard!

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Dec 11, 2010 at 11:05am

Oooh, a Minnesota blizzard!  Despite a reputation for otherwise, blizzards don’t happen all that often ’round these parts, so it’s rather a big deal.  And fun!  At least if you’re inside, well-stocked, with a stack of good movies or books. I happened to have chicken, chicken stock, and a few vegetables in the fridge, so…
