Zucchini Cous Cous

Wednesday, January 13, 2010

I wonder if anyone else hates winter as much as I do? I don’t mean to be all negative but winter just kills it for me. Since this is a food blog, I won’t go into details about my skin drying and cracking, the headaches from wind blowing at my head (this is NOT psychological), and my seasonal affective disorder. However, I feel entitled to go off on a rant about how terrible New York produce is in winter. I’m going through tomato withdrawal, daydreaming about cracking open fresh pea pods, and cursing at the boxes labeled “raspberries”. As I stared at the emptiness in the farmer’s market, I thought to myself, that’s enough, I can’t just eat apples and celery root all winter.

Wheat Berries and Butternut Squash with Brown Butter and Sage

Saturday, December 5, 2009

I’ve been thinking about making a dish with wheat berries for a while now, and I guess I was jolted with a little bit of inspiration from a pasta dish I had at A Voce. Drawing on the brown butter and sage, that familiar and comforting fall aroma, and enjoying the dabs of natural sweetness from the butternut squash, this dish came together almost by itself.

Diabetes Cooking For Everyone

Friday, August 28, 2009

When I was asked to review  Diabetes Cooking For Everyone, by Carol Gelles, I couldn’t decide on which recipes to test. So, I left it up to you to vote for 3 out of 9 recipes. Here are the results:

  1. Afghan Lamb with Spinach – 49.1%
  2. Kasha with Walnuts and Mushrooms – 40.4%
  3. Chicken en Brochette with Orange Marmalade and Sherry Marinade – 35.1%

Before I get to reviewing the recipes where I will do my best to be objective, you should know that I cannot be completely objective about Carol. She is my friend and mentor. One day I will write a post all about her when I can gather up all the words I need to express my admiration, gratitude, and love. For this book, all you need to know is that she is an award winning (IACP/Julia Child Cookbook Award and James Beard Award) cookbook author , professionally trained nutritionist, and a type 2 diabetic.
