Fruit relishes are a wonderful way to preserve have the summer flavors on the autumn and winter table. I love these with Thanksgiving turkey and don’t get me started on how good this relish is on a turkey sandwich. Not only that, fruit relishes are relatively easy. Continue reading

The summer always brings out my “canning and preserving” gene. I got this gene from both sides of my family and I’m so glad I did. The summer bounty offers up countless pickling opportunities. Pickled Bing Cherries are one of the best. Continue reading

Rum Pot is such a nice gift to give yourself for Christmas. It’s an even better gift to give to your holiday guests. The fruit is wonderful served with ice cream, over pound cake or bread pudding or in a bowl with a spoon…just as long as you’re not driving! Then there’s the liqueur. But, you need to start a Rum Pot in the summer. Continue reading

Therefore, this has many of the flavors they left behind, after they moved on. You know, things like raisins, pistachios and cumin. It matters not what those flavors are, it’s still darned delicious.

You may have heard rumor that The Goddess has a torrid affair going. Don’t worry your pretty little head about it, The Spicy Honey knows all about my relationship with eggplant. I love it (and him!) in any and every form, but roasted (not him!) is I think perhaps, my favorite. Continue reading
