Lemon Pappardelle with Green Garlic and Smoked Salmon

By

This is beyond delicious! And, better than that, it's so easy for a weeknight evening. You can make your own pasta, but I opted to go for a trail run tonight, so I bought these.

4 stalks of green garlic, trimmed and thinly sliced
1 fennel bulb, trimmed and thinly sliced
4 T butter
1/2 C organic heavy cream
1/2 C shredded parmesan
1 t lemon juice
pappardelle
smoked salmon, thinly sliced

Cook the pappardelle according to the directions. In a large, flat-bottom pan saute the green garlic and fennel in a splash of olive oil until softened and beginning to caramelize. Add in the butter and cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the parmesan and lemon juice. Stir in the pasta and toss to coat. Garnish with slices of smoked salmon.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

By
photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron.

Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Ki Ngombo = Okra

By
In honor of Mardi Gras, I searched for traditional recipes for gumbo...only to discover that there is no canonical recipe for gumbo. It seems there are as many recipes for gumbo as there are cooks!  The only two constants in a gumbo: variety and okra. The term 'gumbo' likely comes from an African dialect whose word for okra is ki ngombo .  Gumbos can have meat, seafood, just about anything.  In Mark Huntsman's "The History of Gumbo" he refers to written mentions of using muskrat and owl in gumbo recipes.  I embraced the unlimited potential of ingredients and opted for a combination of fish, chicken, pancetta, oysters, mussels, octopus, shrimp, and squid...and lots of okra!
