Crunchy Chicken Cooks: August 2009
http://crunchychickencooks.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Creating seasonal recipes that are inspired by my passion for local, organic foods. Saturday, August 29, 2009. Indian Masala Strawberry Jam. I love Indian Masala Chai tea and I've yammered. On about making it before. So, what better way to savor the flavors of Masala but in a strawberry jam? Now, this may sound like a very unorthodox combination, but trust me, the resulting flavors are very subtle and they add just enough complexity to the jam without overpowering the strawberry flavor in any way. Simmer...

Crunchy Chicken Cooks: September 2009
http://crunchychickencooks.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Creating seasonal recipes that are inspired by my passion for local, organic foods. Friday, September 11, 2009. We've gone a little crazy buying pickling cucumbers. We've made some refrigerator pickles and I just finished up a batch of relish. I've adapted a sweet relish recipe that I found to make it a little more spicy and thought you guys would like to give it a whirl yourselves. 6 cups diced pickling cucumbers. 3 cups diced sweet onion. 1/4 cup kosher salt (or pickling salt). 1 T celery seed. Fat of ...

Crunchy Chicken Cooks: Blackberry, Rum and Black Pepper Jam
http://crunchychickencooks.blogspot.com/2011/03/blackberry-rum-and-black-pepper-jam.html
Creating seasonal recipes that are inspired by my passion for local, organic foods. Friday, March 11, 2011. Blackberry, Rum and Black Pepper Jam. We just ran out of homemade jam. It is quite the horror and I'm wondering if I should bust out the frozen berries to make more jam. Last summer, I was trying to figure out what additional flavors would go well with blackberry and decided to give fresh ground black pepper and barrel aged rum a try. I was not at all disappointed. 1 Tablespoon grated lemon peel.

Crunchy Chicken Cooks: Asparagus with Fried Eggs
http://crunchychickencooks.blogspot.com/2009/05/asparagus-with-fried-eggs.html
Creating seasonal recipes that are inspired by my passion for local, organic foods. Thursday, May 28, 2009. Asparagus with Fried Eggs. I've been busy reading this great book, In Late Winter We Ate Pears: A Year of Hunger and Love - Seasonal Recipes and Stories From an Italian Kitchen. And have already run across a couple of fantastic recipes. Last night I started off making. Here's my version of the recipe:. 2 inch thick bundle of fresh asparagus. 2 to 3 teaspoons butter. Salt and freshly ground pepper.

Crunchy Chicken Cooks: March 2011
http://crunchychickencooks.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Creating seasonal recipes that are inspired by my passion for local, organic foods. Saturday, March 12, 2011. Salted Chipotle Chocolate Chunk Cookies. I made a lot of cookies over the holidays. But these aren't your ordinary cookies. These are complex cookies with character. The kind that makes your taste buds report in waves of flavors. These end up being mildly spicy. If I weren't baking these for other people (and eating them myself), I would increase the chipotle and the cayenne. So, if you l...1 tea...

Crunchy Chicken Cooks: Homemade mascarpone
http://crunchychickencooks.blogspot.com/2009/07/homemade-mascarpone.html
Creating seasonal recipes that are inspired by my passion for local, organic foods. Monday, July 6, 2009. I don't know about you, but I love foods made with mascarpone. Even though I inevitably always mispronounce it. It's that triple-cream cheese that's used in making tiramisu and a whole host of very tasty sweet and savory Italian dishes. You can also serve it with fruit or it can be mixed with cocoa or coffee. 16 ounces (not ultra-pasteurized) organic whipping cream. 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice. It usual...

Crunchy Chicken Cooks: Pickled radishes
http://crunchychickencooks.blogspot.com/2010/07/pickled-radishes.html
Creating seasonal recipes that are inspired by my passion for local, organic foods. Saturday, July 31, 2010. We came back from our long vacation with a veritable crapton of radishes ready to jump out of the ground. Not too surprising, since the kids planted them a week before we left. Okay, maybe crapton of radishes is a bit of an exaggeration, but 35 radishes I cannot eat in one week. Oh Yes You Can! So, the radishes, coupled with the garlic I just pulled out of the ground (those little guys that didn't...
