Earl Grey Panna Cotta
adapted from Breakfast for Dinner 
by Lindsay Landis & Taylor Hackbarth, Love & Olive Oil

What a glorious dessert this was! Subtle and silky. Wow.

1 envelope gelatin
1/4 cold water
1 C organic heavy cream
1 C organic 2% milk
1/4 C organic granulated sugar
2 Earl Grey tea bags
zest from 1 organic lemon

Dissolve the gelatin in cold water.  Place the other ingredients in a medium saucepan and heat till it begins to steam. Do not let it boil. Let steep for 10 minutes. Gently press all of the liquid from the tea bags; strain out the lemon zest.

Pour the cream into the gelatin and stir till completely dissolved. Pour the mixture into your serving containers and let chill, uncovered, until set. At least four hours. Serve chilled.

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.

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!
