phoenix eggs: August 2007
http://phoenix-eggs.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 02, 2007. My sister-in-law requested this recipe from me, so here it is. It's so simple it can hardly be called a recipe! Take some grapes, wash and dry them. Pick them off the vine. Separate 1 or 2 egg whites and whisk a little, just until frothy. Mix together about 1 cup of sugar and about 1/3 c. ground coriander - use more or less coriander depending on what you like. Let them sit at room temperature for one or two days. Posted by J at 12:15 PM. The best food forum.

phoenix eggs: October 2006
http://phoenix-eggs.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 27, 2006. As I was just saying to my friend K., I'm really glad I decided to start a blog right now, when I have so much free time. My husband keeps telling me that no one will read my blog if I never post anything, but school is kiling me right now. But in answer to the only question I can currently imagine - yes! Yes, I am done with phase 3! Yes, I have created standardized recipes for the required 5 courses! Yes, I did include a recipe for stock in my packet! And yes, I do regret the i...

Sunday, August 03, 2008. Thoughts on honey (not my own - I'm not so eloquent). It's the epigram for Anne Lamott's novel. Last night, as I was sleeping,. I dreamt - marvellous error! That I had a beehive. Here inside my heart. And the golden bees. Were making white combs. From my old failures. Antonio Machado, from. Posted by J at 3:54 PM. Saturday, August 02, 2008. My new obsession is noticing what people have in their shopping carts at the grocery store. Shopping cart # 1:. Box of white Franzia.

phoenix eggs: December 2006
http://phoenix-eggs.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 29, 2006. So with the new year approaching and the holiday season just behind us, I am making an attempt to be healthy. After all of that heavy holiday food, I feel like I want to eat raw fruits and vegetables only for the rest of my life. 1 bunch scallions, cleaned and sliced. 1 tsp chopped fresh ginger. 1 c plain yogurt. Sweat scallions and ginger over low heat until scallions are tender, about 5 min. Puree in blender with yogurt and honey. It's good hot, warm, or cold. Enjoy! The egg ...

phoenix eggs: June 2007
http://phoenix-eggs.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 03, 2007. Happy Meal (sort of). We had a cookout the other night, and I decided to finally make the mini burgers I've had on my mind for a month. I've been obsessing about the concept of a mini burger and fries - kind of like a happy meal, but better. We ended up making mini venison burgers on ciabatta with caramelized onions, balsamic mushrooms, and bleu cheese. Then I made a roasted yellow pepper ketchup and mini fries. Posted by J at 8:34 AM.

phoenix eggs: November 2006

Wednesday, November 29, 2006. Leaving room for inspiration. I broke one of her 4 plates (that's right she has, or rather had, 4.) It was her great grandmother's and had little pink rosebuds on it and gilded edges. I felt guiltier about that than just about anything in the recent past. As I sat on her lovely, vintage, blue velvet couch, H. handed me a bag of sweet potatoes and parsnips, a knife, and a cutting board. Me, "Where should I cut these"? Her, "On your lap, of course! So we ended up with a great ...

Saturday, February 24, 2007. My Dinner with President Bailey. This is the entree - Chicken grapefruit scallopini with pink peppercorn sauce, and I just made a classic Market Place potato cake (from my old station there) and a warm arugula and jicama salad to accompany it. Next time, I'll try to be a little more creative on my plate presentations. Posted by J at 11:05 AM. Wednesday, February 14, 2007. Posted by J at 12:04 PM. The best food forum. Happy Meal (sort of).

Monday, April 30, 2007. Duck rillette, ladyfinger popcorn tuile, orange confiture, Earl Grey glaze. Chicken consomme with carrot petals and white tea butterflies. I laminated white tea into the pasta, then tied them with blanched chives. Seared tuna "sushi" on sweet tea risotto rolls with mustard greens and prosciutto, a red wine emulsion, chive oil, and a shitake. Rhubarb-oolong sorbet, with a frosted coriander grape. (One of my judges said it was the best thing he had ever eaten! Posted by J at 2:06 PM.
