Braised Beef with Orange and FigsI’ve been reading this really interesting cookbook, ****************.   Actually, it’s less of a cookbook, though they have some wonderful recipes, and more of a reference work.  At least for me it is.  The authors are a chef and a specialist in scents.  What a combination, right?  Continue reading →

Vegetable Soup with Italian FlavorsWith flu season upon us with a vengeance, I thought this was a good time of year to make a brothy, vegetable soup.  There are a few beans tossed in, but they were more of an afterthought.  This soup is all about vegetables, is slightly salty and will warm you to your bones.  Continue reading →

bell pepper, Celery, cilantro, dry white wine, Lentils, olive oil, Onions, Orange, sherry vinegar, Spices, Spinach

Lentils with Onion, Bell Peppers, Garlic and HerbsLentils make a nice “bed” for some lovely roasted chicken.  Or a piece of grilled fish or pork chop.  Think lentils, instead of rice, pasta or potatoes.  And lentils offer some terrific vitamins and minerals, too.  Oh yes, did I mention they are also delicious?  Continue reading →

We ate a lot of Three Bean Salad when I was a kid.  During the summer, my mother made it frequently.  I think it was because we all liked it, it made a huge batch and it kept well.  All that, and we had almost everything growing in the garden.  I started with her recipe, then took a flying leap!  Continue reading →

Saffron Scented Chicken Curry with Chickpeas in Coconut Cream Sauce

bell peppers, chicken breasts, coconut milk, garbanzo beans, Garlic, herbs, kaffir lime leaves, Onions, peanuts, saffron, Spices, tomato paste

Saffron Scented Chicken Curry with Chickpeas in Coconut Cream SauceThough The Goddess tends toward being heavy-handed with garnishes on curry, this chicken curry has a very subtle curry flavor.  The flavors intermingle and literally “bounce” around your palate, but the “curry flavor” is a back flavor.  And, this curry is fast enough for a mid-week family meal and tasty enough for company.  Either way, it’s delicious.  Continue reading →

Who the hell is Dom Pedro you’re asking?  And what does he have to do with pot roast?  The Portuguese-born Dom Pedro I was the first ruler of the Empire of Brazil back in the 19th century.  He has nothing to do with pot roast per se, but here we join together some of the best of both Portuguese and Brazilian flavors, for a winning combination.  Continue reading →

The Dynamite Doula, a young woman who is near-and-dear to us, invited us over for lunch.  She has a new “InstaPot”, the pressure cooker-sauté pan-slow cooker pot and a whole lot more.  It turns out we have the same one, kindred spirits that we are!  Anyway, she, and her Dear One, served us a version of this wonderful, rib-sticking, winter-chasing bean soup.  It was supremely delicious, The Spicy Honey loved it and so I decided to see if I can come close to repeating her soup.  Continue reading →

A Sweet Greek VinaigretteRecently I had the privilege of breaking bread, well pita, with an incredibly talented and sharp woman.  Her family has been a part of our lives for over two decades!  Where does the time go?  Anyway, we dined at Mythos, in Burlington, Ontario.  The dinner was delicious, but their Greek salad was divine.  Continue reading →
