Calling all Caseophiles! {Call for Recipes}

By

For my virtual potluck this month - August 2014 - I decided that I wanted to pool together the great, creative minds of my food bloggin' pals and collect cheese recipes. And it doesn't have to be an actual recipe; if you want to share tasting notes of your favorite cheese, do that!


Here are some ideas to inspire you...

Do you make your own cheese? Post it! Here's my Homemade Paneer. So easy.

Have you tasted an usual cheese you want to share? Post it. Here are my tasting notes from Bonnyclabber's Moonshine cheese; thought the cheese wasn't my favorite, it has a great story.

Do you have a favorite cheese appetizer? Post it. I love the ease of making these Roasted Fig-Gorgonzola Balls. They are a perfect savory morsel.

And because of the breadth of this category, I'm expanding the submissions. You're not limited to sharing three recipes this month, link in up to five. Think sweets with cheesecake. Imagine savories bubbling with salty, cheesy goodness. I could give up any food except for cheese. I am certain of that.

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. 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. 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!
