Brown butter ramps

The hill behind my friend's house is covered in gorgeous ramps each spring, which she generously shares with me. Since I never know when a bunch of ramps will show up at my back door, I've developed a way to use them that's quick, easy, and goes well with anything I'm making for dinner.

Strawberry Balsamic Shrub Syrup

A few years ago, I went to my first San Francisco Street Food Festival and had a refreshingly different mocktail called a shrub. The strawberry basil shrub was one of the highlights among hundreds of street food vendors. So I researched the drink and discovered how simple it was to make. You can use just about any fruit and any vinegar, muddle in flavorings like sweet basil or thyme. The tart hit from the vinegar really makes the fruit flavor shine while adding a complexity that plays so well with the sweetness.

No Knead Country Loaf

I’ve always cherished the dear notion of forming an intimate relationship with wild yeast lassoed from thin air with water and flour, but more often than not when faced with the prospect of a multi-day process and feeding schedule, I end up running out to the store instead. While it’s no indignity to pay a baker for your bread, I still prefer being able to conjure sustenance from, seemingly, pennies and dust at home. The ever popular “no knead” method now allows me the satisfaction of more often than not baking my own bread, but it’s low maintenance enough that I can actually, in real reality, integrate it into my weekly routine. If traditional artisan methods are like having a dog, this "no knead" method from Jim Lahey's book "My Bread" is more like having a cat. Just leave it alone and let it do its thing. This recipe is now my reliable go to when I haven’t time for a “project” but want bread. Which is mostly always. Even better you can make it your own by folding in almost anything right at the beginning when mixing the basic ingredients: nuts, fruit, spices, olives, cheese, roasted garlic, or herbs. Make it your own. A ribollita with olive bread is a natural, and pain perdu made with spiced cranberry & walnut bread is heavenly. Note: All purpose flour will work in a pinch here.
