The Food Matters Project: More Rhubarb Creations

And the rhubarb download continues...in the face of the rhubarb shortage, or aversion, everyone got very, very creative. I think this is the last of the group. If I missed anyone, a thousand apologies. I'll circle back and catch anyone I missed later this week.

Several bloggers cooked, but decided not to record their experience. Better left forgotten, I suppose. To those folks, thanks for trying it!

Again, I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I am in awe of your culinary fortitude and am honored to be part of this creative group.

Lexi from Lexi's Kitchen made exactly what the original recipe was: fish in rhubarb sauce. And, even more impressively, she made a savory rhubarb-lover out of her husband. Nice job! I love that she added fish sauce to the dish. I am writing that one down for when I cook this recipe again this week.

Maryfran of Franny Cakes doesn't like seafood and couldn't find rhubarb, so she went a completely different direction and blogged about a warm broccoli + quinoa salad. Yum!


Jen from the team at Small College Kitchen made fish in caramel sauce with tangy fruit salad and rice. This sounds and looks delish.


Sara of Simply Whole Kitchen opted to bake, instead of braise, her fish and served it with a fruit salsa. So pretty and, I'm certain, delicious.

Alissa of Big Eats Tiny Kitchen braised chicken in a rhubarb-honey sauce for a Sweet and Sour Rhubarb dish. Oh, my! If only I could stick chopsticks into my screen and get a piece of that lovely dish.



Again, if I missed anyone, the omission was unintentional. I'll check back later this week and post any creations that I didn't catch this time around. Thank you, all, again for your efforts and fab culinary creations. It's been an adventure this week.

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
