Green Beans with Shallots

November 30, 2008 by Charles Leave a Comment

img_1570

Every few days, it dawns on me that I haven’t exactly been eating my greens.  I don’t have any particular aversion to vegetables – especially the orange ones (see my pumpkin and sweet potato posts!).  But for whatever reason, green vegetables often get overlooked.  Whenever I realize my oversight, …

One of my favorite things about cooking is getting to experiment.  In the kitchen, there are so many different mechanisms with which to experiment and try something new.  You can play with the type of ingredients and their amount.  You can alter the cooking time and the cooking temperature.  Or you can change the medium in which you cook – be it a grill, an oven, or a stove top.

Today I got to test something new.

One of my favorite side dishes…

White Chocolate-, Chocolate-, and Toffee-Chip Cookies

November 19, 2008 by Charles 3 Comments

Popovers are a fickle lot.  Sometimes they don’t pop.  Sometimes they explode.  And sometimes, they simply refuse to come out of their cups.  According to one article, chefs at Neiman Marcus spent five weeks perfecting their popover recipe, experimenting with nearly a dozen variations before arriving at their now-famous recipe.  Popovers, they felt, were worth perfecting.

Bruschetta

Bruschetta (broo-SKET-uh), as you might suspect, is an Italian dish.  It does not refer to the topping, however, but to the grilled bread.  The word itself owes its origins to the 13th Century word “brusare,” which referred to the act of passing a flame over the keel of a boat to aid in waterproofing.  A few centuries later, the word evolved to  the Latin word “bruscare,” and came to mean to toast.

All of which is to say that bruschetta …
