Blueberry Ice Cream

By

After we picked blueberries at High Ground Organics, D suggested that we make ice cream. So, I put the ice cream maker in the freezer and, tonight, D helped me whip up a simple, no-cook ice cream.

Ingredients
  • 2 C fresh blueberries
  • 1 C heavy whipping cream
  • juice from 1 lemon
  • 3/4 C organic granulated sugar
Procedure
Place all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mash the blueberries into the cream. You want to mash some and leave some whole.


Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and process according to your machine. Ours took about 40 minutes to come to a soft, gelato-like texture.


Spoon ice cream into a container and freeze for 30-60 minutes before serving.


The Enthusiastic Kitchen Elf was so excited. "I made this, Mommy!" he gushed. He plunked four berries on the top - just like at gelaterie...so they can identify the flavors. He's too funny.

    I've been meaning to make blueberry ice cream for the past two or three summers, and I think I should get after it this summer, right? Yours looks so creamy and fantastic!

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

By
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

Aloo Tiki {Pakistan}

By
To start off our Pakistani culinary adventure, I started us off with aloo tiki - potato cutlets. I'm always game for tasty street food. I found a couple of different recipes and incorporated those together for this version. Ingredients 6-8 small red potatoes, scrubbed 1 T cumin seeds 1 T fresh chopped parsley 1/2 t ground coriander 1 t minced garlic Procedure Boil the potatoes until they are tender. Drain and let cool. Mash the potatoes. Traditionally they are mashed without their skins. I left the skins on. In a small pan, toast the cumin seeds on high heat until the begin to give off an aroma and begin to darken. Remove from heat and transfer to a plate to keep them from cooking any more. Blend all of the spices into the mashed potatoes, then shape into small patties. If you wet your hands, the potato mixture won't stick to them. Heat a splash of oil in a large, flat-bottom pan. Dip each patty into beaten egg and carefully place in the oil. P
