This is an inventive way to liven up stuffed turnips, the peas in this recipe bring a new texture to a dull root vegetable while the mint sauce adds a zing.
Chard Stalk Hummus
Looking for a resourceful way to use up the stalks from your swiss or rainbow chard bounty? The use of chard stalks as a hummus is somewhat common in mediterranean cooking. I came across the idea in Root-to-Stalk Cooking by Tara Duggan. Paula Wolfert's The Cooking of Eastern Mediterranean and Clifford Wright's Mediterranean Vegetables also provide variations, among others. I adapted this dip using my favorite hummus recipe, heavy on the tahini and garlic. I was pleasantly awed by the texture - it perfectly captures the creaminess of hummus, and I'm still rapt in the memory of the garlicky lemon flavor. This dip is pink because I used rainbow chard stalks as that's what I had on hand, but for a beige-colored dip, use swiss chard stalks.
Sweet Potato Fries with Goat Cheese and Raspberry Sauce
Who doesn't love food trucks? Here in LA they are a way of life. They have their own Facebook pages and blogs and even have their own day of the month in Venice Beach! Well my own personal favorite was called Fresh Fries, an entire menu dedicated only to avant grade Fries. Unfortunately the truck is no longer and I have had to fend for myself in trying to recreate this most unusual late-night, ultra-indulgent food masterpiece, although to look at it you would think it more of a massacre. All I can tell you is that you have to taste it to believe it. It is the perfect balance of salt, sweet, creamy, sour mouth-watering goodness you will ever stumble upon after a 10 mile bike ride and a 5 mile hike. You have been warned :)

New Classic Buttercream
This is real French buttercream reorganized to eliminate the trickiest steps. Traditional French buttercream requires pouring hot sugar syrup over eggs while beating steadily -- without scrambling them or splattering most of the syrup around the sides of the bowl. Then the mixture is reheated (to be sure that the eggs get cooked but not scrambled) and beaten again to cool before beating in the butter. Pastry chefs make this all the time, but home cooks are at a disadvantage because small batches are trickier than large batches. This recipe produces classic results with fewer, easier steps. Recipe from Flavor Flours: A New Way to Bake With Teff, Buckwheat, Sorghum, Other Whole and Ancient Grains, Nuts, and Non-Wheat Flours (Artisan, 2014).
