We’ve lived in Colorado for a total of nearly a decade now (though not consecutive years), and in our current house for nearly three. But it wasn’t until testing and photographing this recipe earlier this summer that our town’s tornado sirens went off for the first time since we’ve lived in the Centennial State. It […]
Welcome, Dr. Oz Show Viewers!
Every now and again, life has a way of throwing little—and sometimes big—surprises into the steady drumbeat of everyday life. So it was for our family when the producers of the nationally televised Dr. Oz Show extended an invitation for us to appear on an episode about “sorting through the misinformation on gluten.” That episode […]
Spaghetti del Mare
Our family’s annual summer trip to New York is already nearly two months behind us. In many ways it feels like a dream. In other ways, we’re still dreaming of the fresh seafood we indulged in many nights. The clams, especially, were a real treat. One sunny day we went out on one of the family boats […]
Zucchini Hushpuppies
With Labor Day now in the rearview mirror, it’s probably safe to say that state fair season has officially come to a close. Both our home state of New York and our adopted home of Colorado held 11-day extravaganzas that concluded on Labor Day itself. It’s no secret that fair food is a beast of […]
Raspberry and Cream Pie
The spring and early summer bounty continues here in Colorado. First it was strawberries and rhubarb. Next it was micro-greens from thinning our garden. And soon, it will be raspberries. As a child, blueberries were my summer berry of choice. I’d eat them by the pint, and if my mother had let me, I probably […]
Paella Mixta
Our kids—like any kids—can at times be picky eaters. They have their likes and dislikes, and if they dislike something they’re probably going to take an obligatory “thank you” bite, as we call it, and then move on. Foods they love one day they loathe the next. And, of course, the foods they love and […]
Berry-Rhubarb Pie
From New York to New Mexico, and from Washington State to Washington, D.C., one thing is clear: it’s berry and rhubarb season. That season has come late to us here in Colorado. Along Colorado’s Front Range, May was unseasonably cool, cloudy, and very rainy. Up among the higher mountains, they got three feet of snow over the […]
Vanilla Sponge Cake with Chocolate Whipped Cream
I’m not normally one for comfort food eating in the month of May. Comfort food is something I usually associate with winter. But here in our little corner of Colorado, we’ve had an unusually cool, grey, wet spring that’s kept us indoors far more than we’d otherwise expect. Warm, sunny days are way too few […]
How Gluten-less Art Gets It Very Wrong
Over the course of the past ten days or so, a French Tumblr account named Gluten Free Museum has been getting quite a bit of attention. The concept takes famous works of art, popular cartoons and movies, and iconic photographs and Photoshops them to strip them of all things wheat and gluten. The gimmick has […]
Herb Feta Bread
Even as long-standing gluten-free companies like Udi’s and Schar have improved and expanded their bread offerings, while newer market entrants such as Rudi’s and Canyon Bakehouse have entered the fray with strong contenders of their own, there are certain breads that simply won’t make the transition to commercial production and store-bought availability and convenience. At […]
