{Gluten-Free} Blueberry Cobbler


When a farmer friend of mine at Serendipity Farms posted that she had a glut of blueberries - along with a special locals' price - I was thrilled. I had her set aside five pounds and sent my mom to the market with a wad of cash.

When the boys saw the bag, they demanded that I make dessert. "Mamma, make a blueberry pie! We want pie! We want pie!!" they hollered in unison. 

Will cobbler suffice?

"Yes! We just want something sweet...not savory," declared the Sugar Pigs.


Ingredients makes one 9"x13" cobbler

  • 6 to 7 C fresh blueberries
  • 1 C sweet white rice flour
  • 1 C gluten-free flour blend
  • 1/2 C chestnut flour
  • 2 t baking soda
  • 1-1/2 C butter, softened
  • 2 C organic granulated sugar + 4 T for sprinkling
  • 1 t pure vanilla extract
  • 1 t pure lemon extract
  • 2 C Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 C whole milk
  • 1 T olive oil



Procedure
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flours and baking soda. In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until lightened and fluffy. Beat in the extracts, yogurt, milk, and olive oil. Fold in the flour mixture until just moistened.

Spoon batter into pan. Scoop the blueberries over the top of the batter. Gently press the berries into the batter. Sprinkle  the 4 T over the top of the berries.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes until the batter is set. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

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. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams.

Ki Ngombo = Okra

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!
