Simple Summer Snack | Strawberry Lemon Balm Paletas

There’s only so much jam you can make.  Sometimes, you just need to start eating those 16 or 17 pounds of strawberries you picked.  And maybe you need to enlist the kids, too.  Enter the world’s simplest way to do that: popsicles. I, of course, can’t just let strawberries be strawberries.  Besides, Cherub loves too… Read More Simple Summer Snack | Strawberry Lemon Balm Paletas

Precious Little | Strawberry Peony Jam

It’s the time of year that it’s hard to pin me down.  I’m outside.  Busy in the backyard, planting, weeding, sitting, contemplating.  I just want to be outside.  Watching for the return of Chestnut.  Seeing if we have any new baby rabbits in the yard.  I just find so much peace there, that you’re hard… Read More Precious Little | Strawberry Peony Jam

Farewell, Summer Garden | Gazpacho

Every so often you run across a recipe that begs to be made just as is, such as Spanish maestro José Andrés’s recipe for gazpacho.  Not a more perfect dish than this can be found to send summer off into its nine month hiatus.  Celebrate all that we are losing before the clock strikes 5:05… Read More Farewell, Summer Garden | Gazpacho

Extra Time on Saturday | Pasta and Focaccia

The quick and dirty version of a Saturday dinner: Because I made a veal stock today (with lovely bones from Bluescreek Farm Meats), it meant that there was quite a bit of tasty meat left on the bones after the stock was all said and done.  It was dropped into the quick tomato sauce, that… Read More Extra Time on Saturday | Pasta and Focaccia

My Favorite Summer Corn | Maque Choux

Although summer corn here in Ohio is some of the sweetest and loveliest I’ve ever eaten, I still can’t help but occasionally add to an already great thing.  Gilding the already golden lily, if you will.  This is an easy, flavorful recipe that I’ve made countless times this summer, because it seems to go with… Read More My Favorite Summer Corn | Maque Choux

A Quick Pickle | Szechuan and Dill

These are my first pickles. I thank sites like Hounds in the Kitchen and Food in Jars for giving me the nudge in the direction of preserving and pickling. What is it about these methods that seem so daunting?  Perhaps it is that you hear stories of the six thousand pints that your grandmother used… Read More A Quick Pickle | Szechuan and Dill

Simplicity from the Farmers’ Market | On the Grill

Honestly in the summer I can’t be bothered with much.  Dinner of a meat and a veg.  Perhaps a second veg.  If it doesn’t require cooking.  And if Cherub loves it.   Only then. So if you’re like me and don’t feel up to much, stop by the farmers’ market in your town on Saturday morning… Read More Simplicity from the Farmers’ Market | On the Grill
