Breakfast

Peach and Plum Clafoutis

August 2, 2009 by Charles 4 Comments

Peach and Plum Clafouti

I have an  impatient streak.  It’s why I don’t play golf, and why I can’t read music.  It’s why I prefer talking to texting, and why I bring work home.  It might also be why I scheduled this post to publish while  on vacation.  So when things take longer than I think they should, I get frustrated.  And when things don’t work out the first time, to say nothing of the second time, I get equally frustrated.

In the kitchen, however, I’m a little more forgiving.  In the kitchen, I’m usually willing to forgive a first mishap, and to chalk it up as a culinary rough draft.  Some of my recipes even look like the galleys of a novel, with the characteristic cross-outs and line-edits.  Ingredients are substituted or subtracted like unwanted sentences, cooking times expand or contract like secondary characters, and quantities increase or decrease as if page numbers.

As writing is to cooking, I’m willing to work through a few rough drafts.  And this recipe took more than a few.  In all, …

Overnight Oats

June 17, 2009 by Charles 9 Comments

Most of my morning routines cannot be done the night before.  Making lunch the night before would produce a rock-hard sandwich.  Shaving before bed would move my five o’clock shadow to just around noon.  And relying on yesterday’s hair care is simply laughable.  But breakfast – that works.

Overnight oats are best done, well, overnight.  Soaking the oats …

Banana French Toast

May 9, 2009 by Charles Leave a Comment

I don’t quite know what prompted it, but for an entire summer, my youngest brother had to have French toast before camp.  What might have started as a special breakfast soon became the breakfast.  Every day.  And with time, his demands seemed only to grow.  It had to have the crusts removed.  It needed to be in the shape of a circle.  It had to come with powdered sugar.

Sometimes we’d all have French toast, but more often than not, we were content with cereal.  No matter.  He stuck to his guns.  And Mom faithfully complied, serving up French Toast, then rushing us all off to camp.

Lemon Ricotta Pancakes

February 2, 2009 by Charles 4 Comments

Pancakes are universal – nearly every culture has a griddlecake of some kind.  But not only are pancakes universal, they’re classical – literally.  The Ancient Romans collected pancake recipes in the Apicius, their 5th Century cookbook.

From these early origins, the pancake has evolved into a quintessential American comfort food, a part of almost every family’s Sunday brunch.

This recipe …

Easy Sticky Buns

As part of my college application, I had to provide the usual information – SAT scores, class schedules, teacher references, and essays.  But unlike the common application, my alma mater had a section entitled “Hodgepodge,” which was an effort to gain at least a cursory insight into the applicant’s personality.

The questions in the hodgepodge section ran the gamut – from your favorite songs and television shows, to the books on your mantle.  The Office of Admissions also wanted to know your favorite time of day.  While the former questions gave me some pause, the latter I knew in an instant: Morning – which for me, meant breakfast.

Breakfast might only have been …
