Molasses Zucchini Bread

By
When a friend gave me this giant zucchini from his wife's garden, I asked, "What am I supposed to do with that?" You're supposed to make zucchini bread. "You are aware that your wife has an oven, too, right?!?" OK. So, I brought it home.


When Dylan saw it, there was no doubt in his mind what I was supposed to do with it. He simply inquired, "How many loaves of zucchini bread will this make, Mommy?" Seven, it turns out. This recipe makes one large loaf or four mini loaves.

2 C white whole wheat flour
1/2 C ground almonds
1 C organic granulated sugar
1 t sea salt
1 T baking powder
1 t baking soda
1 t ground cardamom
1 t ground nutmeg
1/2 t ground cloves
1 C organic plain yogurt
2 eggs
3 T olive oil
2 T unsulphered molasses
2 C grated zucchini

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk together all wet ingredients. Mix all dry ingredients. Mix until just moistened. Spoon into a prepared loaf pans. Bake until golden brown (approximately an hour) and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Then invert onto a wire rack and cool completely.

    Yum! Zucchini bread trumps even pumpkin bread in my book.

    What fun to have that jolly green giant in your kitchen and such a happy experiment to see how many yummy loaves it would yield!

Caulibits Crni Rižoto (Croatian Black "Risotto") #Whole30

By
Last week, I participated in the Wine Pairing Weekend event 'New Year, New Wine." I paired Crni Rižoto with Dingac Vinarija’s Pelješac...and you can read my post: here . I was pouring a Croatian wine and decided to make a traditional Croatian dish. Every seafood restaurant in Croatia has a  Crni Rižoto  (black risotto) on its menu.  Crni Rižoto  is risotto dyed black with squid ink; I used cuttlefish ink for the same effect. However, since arborio rice is not Whole30 compliant, I made a version for myself that used caulibits instead of rice. Ingredients 1 C fish stock (or a combination of fish stock and vegetable stock) 1 T olive oil 1 medium shallots, peeled and minced 1 cloves garlic, crushed and minced 1/4 lb shrimp 1/4 lb squid tubes, cleaned and sliced into rings 1/4 lb scallops 1/4 lb clams, scrubbed 1/4 lb mussels, scrubbed 4 C caulibits, or chopped cauliflower 1 T fresh parsley, minced juice and zest from 1 organic lemon 1 t cuttlefish ink

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...
