“Osso Buco” Stew, Sorta OK Not Really

Yes, this is osso buco stew, not osso buco.  Why? Mainly because sometimes I am lazy.  I did not want to have to check it and baste it, especially since it was an amazing miracle that the pot I cooked it in even fit in my countertop oven.  Yes, [...]

Cream of Chestnut Soup

Ever since I started making food with chestnuts, I have been searching out great chestnut recipes to try.  I just cannot get over how much I love their earthy flavor.   I  happened to come across this great chestnut soup recipe over at

Pumpkin Shrimp Bisque

I’ve decided that pumpkin is the most versatile food on Earth.  You can use it equally in savory or sweet dishes, and it works with a wide variety of flavor profiles, from sweet maple/vanilla to sage/nutmeg to curries or gingery flavors.  I think those are the most popular combinations, [...]

Creamy Smoked Cheddar & Broccoli Soup

To tell the truth, I really didn’t feel like cooking today.  Getting up this morning to a chilly breeze and frost everywhere didn’t help with my motivation either.  In fact, all I really wanted to do was just curl up back in bed and stay there, where it was nice and warm under the down [...]

Butternut Squash, Two Ways

Buttery Pan-Fried Butternut Squash
Creamy Butternut & Pumpkin Soup

These two dishes came from the same butternut squash.  Actually, the first dish went on to become the second.  I LOVED the first dish.  Roasted butternut squash, pan fried with cannellini beans in a LOT of butter with [...]

The recipes are from her new cookbook, The Steamy Kitchen Cookbook.  I was so excited to hear that Jaden was hosting this month’s challenge, I instantly became a fan of hers after making a fantastic [...]

A New Autumn Tradition: Buttercup Squash Soup

As the rain drizzled down the old glass pane windows and pattered upon the sweet cedar smelling rooftop of our A-frame cabin, the gloomy day in the NH forest seemed a bit brightened after being comforted by a warm cup of herbal tea, curled up on a couch with a good book.  The only [...]

Bouillabaisse

This post is my submission to September’s “Go Ahead Honey, It’s Gluten Free!” event, hosted this month by Gluten Free Gidget.  The theme this month was Disney.  The first thing that came to mind was one of my favorite movies as a little kid, “The Little Mermaid”. [...]

Labor Day Part Deux, Dessert – Summer Berry Champagne Soup with Floating Islands

I don’t think I ever really got to enjoy Labor Day as it was intended.  When I was working as a grad student, it was simply a day when I could park in the garage for free, just like 4th of July and the other federal holidays.  In fact, [...]

Homemade Duck Stock

After enjoying wonderful roast duck legs last week, I just could not toss the extra fat/skin/bones without getting as much flavor out of them as possible.  Thus, later that night, I proceeded to make stock from it and some veggies I had around and created this succulent flavorful stock.  Use this stock wherever you [...]
