#PumpkinWeek Day 2 Recipes:


Ingredients
  • 1 (15 oz) can white beans (traditional would be garbanzos, but my little guy is allergic)
  • 1 C pumpkin puree (how to make pumpkin puree: version 1, version 2)
  • 1/4 C  tahini
  • 1/4 C lemon juice (from approximately 1 organic lemon)
  • 2 T olive oil + more for serving
  • 4 cloves garlic (roasted or raw, I used a combination of roasted and raw for this version)
  • 1/4 t ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 t ground ginger
  • freshly ground salt
  • freshly ground pepper
  • dash of cayenne


Procedure 
Puree all ingredients in a blender. Spoon into a serving bowl and drizzle with more olive oil, if desired. Serve with cut pita or vegetable crudités or both.

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." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

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 !

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...
