The Flavor is Beyond Words...πŸ’œ

Published about 2 years agoΒ β€’Β 1 min read

Hey friends❣️

After 15 years of professional recipe development I don't think I've ever come across a more vibrant flavor...

​Black Raspberry Vinaigrette​

It's berry picking season and I'm sharing a few recipes that can be made with just a handful or two of your precious finds.

The rhythm of summer produce is so satisfying. We're not ready for stone fruits or ripe melons just yet, but oh, the berries! If you're lucky enough to be able to pick your own, it's the ultimate experience, and these recipes won't deplete your hard earned stash.

Are you plucking your fruit from the produce aisle? No worries, that works too!

Using berries as a garnish is one way to make use of small amounts of perfect fruit:

These individual desserts can be customized to any size:

More fun recipes that require just a handful of berries!

​Sweet Corn Polenta with Shrimp 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

My husband loves creamed corn and polenta, so when I saw this beautiful recipe, I had to try it. We loved it! We kept going back to the kitchen for snitches πŸ™‚ after our dinner. We are so thankful there are leftovers for lunch the next day! Thank you for a wonderful recipe!
I also liked the idea of using whole milk to keep the polenta creamy.

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!

shortbread cookies on a rack

Hey friends❣️ Shortbread is one of my signature recipes, no question. I first got hooked on it in Los Angeles, of all places, after a thick chocolate chip shortbread cookie at a coffee shop. That was enough to send me down the rabbit hole. For cookie season I’ve gathered 25 of my shortbread recipes in one place. Use them as a starting point for fall baking now, and for holiday cookies later. And to think it all starts with the simplest formula: butter + flour + sugar. One Shortbread Dough -...

Pears in a bowl.

Hey friends❣️ Happy Sunday! Next Sunday we're taking the Great Island kitchen on the road ~ we're heading up north to Door County, Wisconsin for a month and renting a house right on Lake Michigan. Door County has such a strong sense of place ~ the lake, the orchards, the supper clubs, the Scandinavian traditions. I can already taste where this is going and I can't wait. What's on my counter... I love the look of pears in a bowl so much that I sometimes let them sit past their prime. I don't...
