Mushroom, Kale and Winter Vegetable Stir Fry

From today’s winter market, a colorful blend of what’s in season. In January. In the northeast. This is crisp, clean and delicious. I might make the stir fry and put between a poached egg and an English muffin and call it brunch!

    teevoz, your observation about mellow kale is right on the mark. In fact, kale gets better with cold weather which sweetens it. One of the benefits of the winter farmers markets is experiencing the best of what is considered the “off season” for markets, hearty greens and delicious roots – and which in the early spring will include asparagus and pea shoots that are often past their season before the summer markets begin.

  • My husband and I were at that farmer’s market today and we sampled this dish – it was totally delicious! The kale was mellower than I expected, and the whole thing was really good. I love the idea of pairing this with a poached egg!

Watermelon Cooler Cocktail

Just in time for Memorial Day, here’s a recipe to help ring in the summer season! Inspired by a guy in the kitchen where I work, who each morning juices a few watermelons for us staffers to refresh ourselves with. I took home the inspiration and added rum to it. The “personal watermelons” I’ve been [...]

Ginger Curry Lentil Soup

I have an enormous collection of cooking magazines. Sometimes I think I should hire someone to type all the recipes into a program like iTunes, so that I could search for a particular ingredient or season, but that would take all the fun out of looking for a particular recipe, flipping through well-worn and dripped-on [...]
