Roasted Cabbage Steaks {St. Patty's Day}

By

Every year for St. Patrick's Day, I boil corned beef, cabbage, and potatoes. And the boys all love it. But this year I decided that I wanted to try a new preparation. I don't remember where I saw this. Maybe pinterest. Maybe a blog I follow. But I remembered that it was easy. Done.

Ingredients
  • 1 organic green cabbage
  • olive oil
  • freshly ground salt
  • freshly ground pepper

Procedure
Remove the outer leaf of the cabbage and slice it into 1" steaks. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Lay the steaks on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the steaks with a thin layer of olive oil - on both sides. Sprinkle with salt and pepper - on both sides.

Roast the cabbage for 30 minutes on one side. Flip them over. Roast for another 30 minutes. The cabbage will be softened, but not mushy, and lightly caramelized on the edges. Delicious!


This was the perfect addition to our St. Patty's Day dinner. But I will be using this process again. It's easy and flexible. I'm envisioning fresh herbs and garlic. Oh, yum!

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. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few.

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!
