Last night I made pasta sauce from scratch. I made it pretty quickly and it still took about three hours until completion. Pasta sauce should simmer on the lowest setting all day if you’re looking for perfection. As long as you have time for will suffice in a pinch, and last night that was three [...]

Quick. What is it? Some kind of cave formation? Some oddly rippled sand? Not quite. The above is a bit more edible. Pancakes? Closer, but still wrong. You’re looking at a stack of freshly made pita bread. Much easier to make than gnocchi! It’s basically like making any bread. Proof the yeast in a half cup [...] I whipped up this for a quick Saturday breakfast this weekend. Local ingredients: eggs, kale, green onion, yukon gold potato. Non-local ingredients: parmesan cheese and tomato sauce. Whenever I cook I’m always cognisant of cleanup afterwards, so I do my best to use as few dishes as possible. This breakfast was all cooked in one skillet [...] According to peapod.com, bean sprouts are $1.99 for an 8 ounce package. What a rip off! You can buy organic mung beans seeds for about $1.70/lb and make your own. I’m basically going to let the pictures do all the talking for this entry. I grow mine in a mason jar, though they do make [...] I picked up the week’s CSA selection the other night — potatoes, beets, green bell peppers, and green onions. I still had some chard and a couple potatoes left over though and wanted to use them up. So I went to Supercook.com and began plugging in what I had on hand. One of the top [...] Stop the presses, the buy local challenge is over! Were you able to go a whole week incorporating local ingredients into at least one meal a day? I didn’t track the challenge for myself but I do know I was able to complete it successfully. Tonight Ricky made a veggie soup with beets, potatoes, cabbage, [...] Honestly I haven’t given this challenge much thought. I haven’t gone off track at all mind you, it’s just that this has become increasingly easier for me to do. To the point where now I think about it as something different. Every morning after making my coffee, locally roasted by Zeke’s here in Baltimore, I [...] I was recently taken on a surprise excursion to Liquid Earth, located near the Harbor East area of Baltimore. Ricky and I first heard of this place thanks to the cast of Spring Awakening, seen here: The place seemed like a perfect fit for our newfound veggiedom. We stepped inside and it had the quintessential coffee [...] I’m not quite vegetarian but I have recently begun to exclude meat from the majority of my meals. A year ago I was eating meat 7 days a week and now it’s down to about 1. Always on the lookout for new and different things to try, I thought I’d give making tofu another shot. [...] The CSA is going strong now. As I mentioned I picked up more cabbage in this week’s haul. I found myself having two heads of cabbage in the refrigerator and having no clue what to do with them. Luckily for me I came across an idea over at the Whatever Radio blog about making cabbage [...] |
