This recipe was inspired by the book “Nourishing Traditions” by Sally Fallon. I omitted the creme fraiche (a type of sour cream) and changed the chicken stock to vegetable. I also mashed the potatoes instead of putting them into q food processor because I don’t have a hand held one. It turned out absolutely delicious. … Continue reading

Pear Harvest Butter

My parents neighbors are proof that nice people do in fact still exist. Not only did they offer us all the pears we wanted from their pear tree, they also donated the remaining ones to local food shelters because they know they can’t possibly eat all of them. So instead of letting them waste, as … Continue reading

A recipe from my Russian side, this delicious snack made me realize I love eggplant. When I received one in my CSA share I knew I had to make it. I changed a few things from the recipe my Grandpa gave me, but that’s a good thing because the family recipe is a secret! I … Continue reading

Honey Wheat Bread

Here is a basic bread recipe. I let Lydia make her own bread and it turned out really tasty. She added coriander and ground rosemary. Probably about 4 tbsp worth in the end. If you’re feeling restless or frazzled, I recommend a good day of bread making. Kneading bread is quite soothing for children and … Continue reading

This has been my most popular and most requested recipe. It started as a recipe called Warming Autumn Soup but has since transformed into a completely different recipe. I grind the rosemary with a mortar and pestle if it isn’t fresh so it mixes in better. 1 pkg Extra Firm Tofu cubed 3-4 cups noodles … Continue reading

I love muffins.. and I was offered a french toast muffin at one of my favorite coffee shops. I can’t believe I hadn’t thought of that! It was way too sugary for me, but it definitely put me back in my kitchen laboratory. This is the recipe I came up with. But beware, these little … Continue reading
