This is one of those quick little recipes that packs a wallop of flavor! It’s wonderful in summer, but even in the dead of winter, supermarket zucchini will take you back to the lazy days of summer.

“The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye”, so the song goes. It’s the perfect time to make a little corn relish. The zucchini are still bearing, the peppers are starting to bear and the corn…oh God, the corn! It’s so delicious fresh, but it’s nice to have a few jars of corn relish tucked away for later.

This is a layered affair. If you aren’t familiar with Lebanese 7-Spice or Baharat, you might want to wander into a Middle Eastern market and pick some up. This blend uses the “sweet” spices, like allspice, cardamom, cinnamon, etc. But, it’s wonderful in savory dishes. It lends itself particularly well to lamb and as it turns out, eggplant, zucchini and tomatoes. Continue reading

Every now and again, you happen on a dish that’s just perfect. This is that dish. It’s a positively delicious dish. It’s loaded with rich flavors and vivid colors. Though it’s absolutely best made when the garden is overflowing, it transcends seasons. And perhaps best of all, it goes together quickly and is even better made ahead and eaten at room temperature.

I love fritters. They’re a great way to use veggies. They’re a great way to use up leftover veggies and they’re fried. And anything fried is just better. Face it. It’s true. You know it’s true. Continue reading

Pasta and bean salads are great for summer. Because this doesn’t have any mayonnaise in the dressing, it holds up well when the sun sizzles and you don’t want to. Continue reading

Corn cakes are a nice change of pace and a really wonderful option to use up leftover corn-on-the-cob. Zucchini and tomato just seemed like a natural fit. And I think it was. Continue reading

Roasted vegetables are a thing of beauty, with their intense flavor and wonderful textural qualities, with just a hint of smokiness from the grill. With good bread, then make a wonderful Muffuletta that would make New Orleans proud! Continue reading

I think it’s fair to say that most of us don’t think, “zucchini and chocolate…MMMMM. Now there’s a combination made in heaven!” I know I didn’t. But guess what? You should absolutely think good and happy thoughts about that combination, because this is an absolutely delicious cake. Continue reading
