Got swiss chard in our share. Do I know what to do with it? Nope. I have no idea what these creations will taste like. I wanted to post the pics and the culinary ideas before tonight’s monthly meeting. 1) Chard leaves in frittata. I took Leslie’s chard idea of a tofu Quiche and I…
{photo diary} CSA Share: Week 3
As a hobby photographer since the age of 13, I don’t get much chance to spread my artistic wings… so I’ve decided to document EVERYTHING from our Denison Farm CSA 2010 season. Every piece of produce is getting face time. I am a Round Laker, so here’s what we got- Scallions, Fennel, Broccoli Rabe, Swiss…
Soba Noodles with Various Veggies and a Poached Egg
I’ve been waiting to post this go-to recipe until Miles was whole-heartedly into this entrée. He continues to love everything about it. So I will post it, even though I’m not sure how traditionally kid friendly this recipe is. In beginning this post, I realized that 99% of my posts have weighed heavily on various…
Caramelized Fennel Pizza
I made this for dinner tonight, and it was soooo good. Turns out I like fennel after all! 🙂 Dinner tonight used all the fennel, almost all of what was left of the scallions, and our whole bunch of kale. Sorry for linking ot my blog, it seems like shameless self-promotion, but it’s easiest for…

Kimchee FAIL!
I am overwhelmed with the thought that I wasted 3/4 of a head of beautiful Chinese cabbage, but alas, I did! I don’t know what went wrong but when I went to transfer the goods after 7 days it has grown mold on the top…Obviously I know what happened, I left it barely covered exposed…
{recipe} Bok Choy Wontons
I have never tried to make wontons before. I watched a cooking video on the subject by the Tamra Davis Cooking Show and decided to try my hand. I knew it would be a time consuming task so I decided to do it over a weekend using two days to complete the task. On Saturday…

{photo diary} kimchee
Soooo I’ve dived in and started making Kimchee. I used 3/4 of the cabbage (the other 1/4 went into fried rice & an Asian-inspired salad.) I used the recipe I posted below. I’m on 1 day of the fermentation bonanza; meaning, I’ve done all the steps and the kimchee has been in its juices for…
Chinese Cabbage Post Two: Cabbage Kimchee
Ok, this will be my last post of the evening. I am totally going to do this tomorrow. I only have daikon kimchee in the frig right now, so I’m going to try my hand at the real deal. This seems easy enough. So, my thinking is this: 1/4 of cabbage for korean pancakes, 1/2…

I am following Sarah’s lead….
Chinese Cabbage: Korean Pancakes
I made this recipe many, many times before and they are a big hit with Miles. I haven’t made them with cabbage, but are perfect for it. And honestly, the recipe calls for cabbage, I’ve just always ignored it. I have many korean pancake recipes (we have a few korean cookbooks) but I really like…
