Apple, Carrot, and Parsnip Soup
I know there are dozens of root soup recipes on this site, but the happenstance nature of this soup's creation prompted me to encourage others. I made a roast chicken earlier this week, and after 3 days of leftovers there were still a few roasted carrots left in the roasting pan. I combined these, a few roasted garlic cloves that were hiding in the cavity of the chicken, and a few more carrots and a parsnip from the fridge. A half apple was sitting on the counter, and so that and another whole apple got thrown into the mix. In this photo I added a hodgepodge of inclusions - Dukkah, pepitas, AND some parmesan cheese. But the soup is really good on its own.
Salt-Roasted Pears and Apples with Caramel Sauce
I would like to share a delicious recipe for a Holiday snack or a light desert, which I learned while watching the show “Mad Hungry” a few days ago and made it this morning. I did not have Bosc pears and roasted 7 small Anjou pears. They came out perfect and since I was left with all the salt and inspired by the result, I decided to roast 6 small Honey Crisp apples and even 1 Kiwi, which were starring at me from the fruit vase. As you can see in the photos, it is a fantastic and versatile recipe not only for pears. Thanks’ to Lucinda.
Rosé Mango Mimosa
This rosé mango mimosa recipe is delightful, light, fruity, and a fresh summer breeze in the midst of Autumn. It's also a great compliment to ham and pumpkin.
Apple Bourbon Bundt Cake
A hearty spice-filled bundt cake made from grated apples and toasted nuts, then soaked in whiskey syrup, tastes like autumn and is great any time of year. Bundt cake, which is really just like an oversize muffin baked in a fancy pan, is easy to whip up. The booze bath helps keep it fresh, meaning you can bake it ahead and eat the leftovers for days as a snack. You also can serve it, toasted, with cream cheese for breakfast or brunch. If you soak it with bourbon, it will be sweeter and smoother; the rye will make it more tangy and brighter. But any liquor that you like will work, particularly the brown ones, which go with the warm flavors of nuts and spices. A small nip of the same spirit used in the cake would go well alongside it.
Modernist slaw
Streamlining a slaw recipe these are the essential ingredients.
Abuelito's Super-Special Punch
I promise, this Special Punch recipe will make you very popular with kids of all ages. For an adult version, try adding a hint of rum. Cheers!
Cranberry Apple Sparkling Punch
This punch is very easy to assemble, and can be enhanced with a nice cranberry or apple sorbet if you want to make it very festive. I highly recommend Jeni Bauer's Cranberry Royale Sorbet from her book, JENI'S SPLENDID ICE CREAM AT HOME.
Judy Rodgers' Roasted Applesauce (and Savory Apple Charlottes)
No cinnamon, no cloves -- this roasted applesauce recipe is straight-up apple, mainlined to your belly. Judy Rodgers takes an easy approach with high flavor.
Apple Rye Moonshine Punch
This recipe is fall in a tumbler. Rye Moonshine gets your blood running hot, two kinds of Apple cider sweeten & spice it up, and bitters give it depth. Cheers!
Baby Banana Pies
I made this recipe literally out of thin air (and extra dough). In my crazy, cluttered mind this recipe was born.
Ode to My Apple Tree Kale Salad
After a 3-year fruit drought, our apple tree produced a bounty of fruit this year. Our apples may not be the most gorgeous you have ever seen, but they are firm, sweet yet tart, and wonderful for baking, making sauce, and eating. I have made countless apple crisps this season, lots of applesauce to freeze, and an apple a day goes into every salad I assemble. The skin is mottled and barely presentable to the consumer's eye, but I love love love that we have a tree in our yard that is giving us such a gift. My other love of this season is local kale that is crisp and just screams healthy. Every day for weeks I have made a kale salad for lunch, puffing up my chest while thinking of the nutritional density of this glorious vegetable. This salad is meant to give my two loves equal billing, with just a little crunch of nut and a sprinkle of cheese to complete the taste.
Frozen Nutty Chocolate Bananas on a Stick
A light, made-for-summer take on fair food, reminiscent of the flavors that can be found amongst the Looff Carnival confection stands on the boardwalk in Santa Cruz.
Blueberry Grappa Sauce
This Blueberry Grappa recipe is great because it's not too sweet, isn't pureed, and it finishes with the sting of grappa. Serve with cake, ice cream, or yogurt.
Evergreen
Very Belini like, not too alcoholic, full of fruit, blended using a fruit slush rather then ice to cool it.
Cherise's Special
Sorry for the stock photo...in the process of moving and just joined...just got back from Antigua and the bartender, Cherise, made a fantastic, blue, frozen concoction she served in a martini glass. After doing some reasearch, it's very close to a frozen blue hawaiian. The raspberry drizzle compliments the otherwise tropical flavors and adds a pleasant contrast to the vibrant blue.
Gin Sangria
Perfect for a hot summer day!
Banana Cardamom Milkshake
Recently, I got an email from my friend Alexandra. She was planning to make banana pudding for a party over the weekend and wondered if I thought it was a good idea to add some cardamom. I enthusiastically gave her two thumbs up, and then proceeded to obsess over the idea for the next few days. Banana and cardamom seemed like such a winning combination -- I knew there must be other ways to put it to good use. After some thought, and inspired in part by our Soda Fountain contest, I decided to try making a banana cardamom milkshake. Happily, it didn't disappoint. Feel free to adjust the cardamom to your taste, as well as the milk to ice cream ratio -- I went for a shake that's not too thick, reminiscent of a smoothie but richer.
A violet crush
In search for a truly beautiful, truly purple and yes, even poetic drink, this recipe evolved. I have made a switch from the blackberry over to Violet Liqueur.
Apple-Mint-Lime cooler (Lemonade)
A tasty combo of Apple juice, spritzed up with Lemonade and the herbiness of Mint. Garnish this recipe with a mint leaf and a lime wedge. Cheers!
Banana-date shake
This shake is a meal on the go, IMO. It's light enough so that it doesn't way you down , gives you lots of energy, and cools you down, as well.
Apple Butter Roast with Tricolor Farfelle
This actually came about from me playing with my food. I have always heard of fruit flavors with pork I had never really heard about them with beef so I picked apples and decided to dive off the deep end with the roast. Pairing the pasta with this was part of an assignment from my teacher who is always keeping me on my toes and encouraging me to try new things, basically to broaden my flavor palate, which is alot less scary than I thought it would be. In the short and long of things I was supposed to prepare pasta in a way that was new, so I used the juices from my roast(along with a little shredded roast) and made a ragu type sauce. I hope that it goes over as well in your kitchen as it did in mine.
Apple-Spice Breakfast Soup
Years ago, when I lived in Austin, Tex., I had a little business selling hot cups of soup to vendors and shoppers on the “Drag” in front of the University of Texas. This soup was always a favorite on a chilly day. It’s sweet and spicy, and although you can serve it at lunch or dinner, I prefer it for breakfast, with more yogurt stirred in. Use whole-grain sandwich bread if you can.
Carrot Apple Ginger Juice with Meyer Lemon
I've been enjoying variations of this Carrot Apple Ginger Lemon Juice recipe for years and it's one of my favorite ways to use fresh carrots. Cheers!
Mango Sauce with Cardamom and Saffron
This is a recipe for a puree I fed my daughter when she was 7 months old. It calls for cooking cubes of Mango with crushed Cardamom seeds and strands of saffron.
