Corndogs!

Though we aren't watching the SuperBowl, I decided to make a SuperBowl-worthy dinner: corndogs and chili.  I figured that the cream canoe baking pan I bought to make Twinkies would be perfect!

I started with some mini hotdogs from WholeFoods.  I couldn't pass up this self-promotion: "uncured beef hotdogs (no added nitrates or nitrites) made with sustainable family-farmed beef, a dash of  gentle seasonings, and lots of honest yumminess."


Then I made some cornbread...


  • 1/2 C  butter, softened

  • 2/3 C organic granulated sugar  

  • 1/4 C honey

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/2 t salt

  • 1 1/2 C white whole wheat flour

  • 3/4 C yellow cornmeal

  • 1/2 t baking powder

  • 1/2 C milk

  • 3/4 C corn kernels


  • Blend all the wet ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.  Add the honey, eggs, milk and mix till just moistened.  Add the corn kernels.  Fill the canoe baking hollows halfway with cornbread batter and lay the mini hotdogs inside.  Cover with batter and bake at 350 degrees till the cornbread is firm and begining to brown.

    Serve with ketchup and mustard.

    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."

    Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

    If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce...
