Simple Roasted Radishes
Radishes are root vegetable, so I thought why not roasted 'em. Potatoes, carrots, beats and even turnips get roasted so lets roast these bad boys up (little bit dubious about the end product)! They came out great, subtle sweetness with an after tone of pepperiness...slightly nutty. We served them along side broiled fish.
Sauteed Radishes with Mint
Butter adds a bit of richness to this otherwise simple dish. Browning the butter takes it a step further to add a nutty note, enlivened on the other end by the mint. - liahuber
Deep Red Bells
I missed the submission deadline for the red pepper contest as I was catering to my sick kitty, but I figured I'd share my best red bell pepper recipe here anyway. As soon as peppers start flooding the farmers' market in late summer, I start making batches of these to use on sandwiches, salads, or crostini. They're ridiculously simple, with just a few ingredients, so it's essential to start with great fresh peppers that are perfectly ripe. (And yes, I was thinking of the Neko Case song when I came up with the name for this recipe :) )
Radish & Cucumber Salad
In Russian you call someone “rediska”, which means radish, when they’re naughty and misbehaving. At least that’s what my mother does. I never could understand why, but perhaps it’s because radishes are sharp and peppery. Anyway, being called a radish doesn’t hurt my feelings any because I happen to love radishes. I grew up eating this cool and refreshing radish salad, and as far as I can tell, it’s a Russian classic. My mother makes it with Kirby cucumbers, but I usually use English cucumbers because they’re much easier to find. And Mom never used the dill, though it is a common addition. I can’t remember what Mom served this with, and she’s being a radish and not answering her phone right now so I can’t ask, but I think it’s great on the side with roast chicken. One large bunch of radishes is usually enough to make the recipe. - Lucy Vaserfirer
Onion and Red Pepper Confit
I always look forward to spring when Vidalia onions are in season. I like to saute them in a little oil and sometimes butter until they are brown, soft, and sweet. In this recipe, I added chopped garlic and roasted red peppers, cut to about the same size as the onions. The longer you cook this, the better it gets. Tonight I served it over some simply grilled fish. (local fresh-caught fluke, purchased directly from the fisherman at the farmers' market yesterday...amazing.) It's good as a topping for crostini--brush the sliced bread with a little oilve oil, toast it, layer on some fresh ricotta cheese, and put this on top. It can be added to pasta sauce, used as a filling for an omelet, a topping for hamburger, or served with roast potatoes. - drbabs
Luscious Pickled Peppers
I love pickled peppers and didn't even realize how much I loved them until I started to make them for my Farmer's Market customers. This recipe is loosely based on one from Linda Ziedrich in her Joy of Pickling book. I can my peppers to make them shelf stable, but you can easily keep them in the fridge if you don't care to water bath can them. I hope you enjoy this recipe!
Chimichurri-ish Marinade
Some Japanese friends of mine who lived in Argentina marinated beef tongue in a similar sauce. I liked the marinade, but the tongue, not so much. I tried to replicate the marinade and now enjoy it with just about anything I can grill (except of course, the tongue).
Thai mango salsa
With summer's rich bounty of fruits, the onus is on me to dream up new ways to use the fruit. Munching on them alone is fine, but some fruits, like mangoes, beg to be gussied up. Per my husband's request, it's usually in the form of mango chicken — a quick stir-fry of chicken, onions and garlic, topped off with mangoes, cilantro and lime juice, served over jasmine rice. But it's hot. Dreadfully so. And so, along the lines of sweating out the heat with heat, I bring you Thai mango salsa.
Radish Pickles
This super simple recipe will disappear! Eat them as you might eat ginger in between bites of sushi... just a little crunchy flavor zing between bites of a savory BBQ sandwich or to get your salivary glands going! - LASGarcia
Pack a peck of voilà, pickled peppers
Or at least start with a pint. In her recent canning class Savorykitchen showed Midge and me an easy Vietnamese pickled carrot and radish "instant pickle" recipe adapted from "The Joy of Pickling." I am adapting it further to work with vibrant colors and organic cane sugar, which I chose to heat with the vinegar. With regular sugar you can just dissolve without heating. Savorykitchen showed us her gorgeous Korean red pepper threads, which are illustrated in some of the photos, but not all. The threads are called "Shilgochu" among other names and can be ordered at Savory Spice: http://www.savoryspiceshop.com/spices/chilthread.html - Sagegreen
Pebre
I learned about this recipe while living in Chile and it can be adapted (and used) with just about anything savory. If you like it spicy, add chile paste! If you want less fat, use less oil. Don't like too much tomato, season to your liking. I've had it with bread, on soup, in sandwiches, on pasta and it adds just a little zest to whatever you're eating. - KendraB
Simple Frozen Sweet Corn
This recipe is perfect if you're looking to freeze batches of sweet corn. You will fall back in love with frozen sweet corn after making this delightful recipe.
Coconut Lime Corn
This is a variation of an Indian dish my mother makes. I love corn and I especially love it cooked till its a bit crunchy or chewy. This has been simplified to just a few ingredients, but its a quick and delicious snack. - Lena S.
Cream Corn
This is a really simple recipe but do not think for a moment it isn't complex. What I like about it is it uses the starch from the corn to thicken the cream. You could also add a small pinch of curry powder for a nice change. I like to serve this like many in the South would, with pan seared dove or quail but roast or fried chicken would be good too.
Chilled Corn Soup
This is, essentially, corn gazpacho, but even more simplified: pureed corn makes a creamy, bright yellow base; whole kernals give a satisfying, summery crunch; and a hint of fresh dill lends a cool, unexpected hint of tanginess to this simple summer soup.
Corn with mint and ricotta salata
The saltiness of the cheese works really nicely with the sweet corn. The mint ties it all together.
Hot and Cheesy Corn and Artichoke Dip
I created this using ingredients I love- Fresh Corn, Cream Cheese, Artichoke Hearts, and Parmesian....easy, simple and not time consuming.
Simple Bruschetta
Bruschetta so simple, you probably have all the ingredients already!
Lotus Cocktail
One of my favorite summertime drink creations is this Lotus Cocktail recipe. It's light, clean and refreshing. Pairs equally well with sushi & anything grilled.
Heirloom tamato and Kidney bean receipe
Just made it up
heirloom tomato salad
Can use the cherry tomatoe kind or big tomatoes cut into chunks. This is so refreshing and great with Blanc des Karantes.
Heirloom Tomato Ceviche
My wife and I have been all over Mexico and have tasted Ceviche at every stop we could. We even were surprised to see that saltine crackers were used more than tortilla chips. We were determined to take the best of the ingredients and prepare our own dish with home grown heirloom tomatoes. Sometimes we add shrimp for substance beyond the veggies.
toasty TBBB
Be thankful when you have a garden with tomatos and basil.
Heirloom Ensalata Caprese
I discovered this delicious combination about two summers ago, using fresh tomatoes and basil from my garden. Allow to marinate about one hour. So delicious! This only takes about ten minutes to make.
