cauliflower sauté

As tasty as this is colorful....a terrific vegetarian stir fry. Any of our Sous Salts would work in this recipe. Our Sweet & Savory has turmeric in it so if you use that one no need to add the additional spice. ingredients - 1 cup raw cashews 1 large fennel bulb, plus ½ cup fennel fronds, divided ⅓ cup virgin coconut oil, melted 1 tablespoon whole black mustard seeds 6 scallions, thinly sliced 2 medium sweet potatoes or garnet yams, unpeeled, cut into ¾-inch pieces 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into 1½-inch florets 2 green chiles (such as serrano or [...]

asparagus with gribiche dressing ~

Serve this lovely vegetable warm in the winter time and cool in the summer. The Gribiche dressing can be used as a dressing for almost anything. Drizzled over roasted chicken, any number of vegetables, tossed into a chicken salad...any dish that you like with the tangy flavors of cornichons, capers, vinegar and stone ground mustard. The hard boiled eggs should be a bit on the jammy side. I use 6 minute eggs. ingredients 1 bunch of fresh asparagus 1 T olive oil 4 cornichons, diced 1 T capers 1/3 c olive oil 2 T champagne vinegar 1 T whole grain mustard [...]

tahini dip ~

Entertaining at the last minute...friends just drop by to enjoy some Holiday cheer. This is a great dip for a quick go to crudite platter. But I also have it in my fridge to thicken soups and stews. It works marvelously without having to add a flour based thickening agent. I used our Sun Dried Tomato Sous Salt but once again any of our salts would work. Pictured in the other little Arte d'Italic bowl is a fresh tomato salsa that I made with those wonderful red and green veined tomatoes. ingredients 2 T Tahini 1 clove of garlic, grated [...]

seafood chowder ~

This soup came together after a week away with the family. We needed something quick but as always ...it had to be flavorful as well. I used Sea Bass, Shrimp and Spicy Sausage. You could use Salmon, Halibut or Cod in addition or as a substitute. There are so many different kinds of sausages being made today so experiment with some other varieties. There is a chicken artichoke that would be tasty with cod and scallops. I used salsa because it already had the garlic, herbs and tomatoes as a base so it jump started our soup prep. I used our [...]

green bean casserole ~

My sister hosts our Thanksgiving feast every year....we all contribute our culinary treats... mine this year is the green bean casserole ... this year I wanted to add some different touches to the sauce. A few months ago when working on a Gumbo recipe I read that if you toast the flour in a dry skillet to the desired color you add a nuttiness and deep color to the flavor of the flour. I thought aha! that method might be perfect for the additional layer of flavor I wanted these beans to have. So I used a combination of recipes one [...]

farro salad ~

Farro....wonderful, versatile, nutty and satisfying this grain in one of my favorites! This particular salad is just a starting point for ideas. You can add prosciutto or seared pancetta, use a different cheese either feta or parmesan.
