This is for Lewis. Lewis loves oozing yolks. I like my eggs solidified with the yolks and whites thoroughly mixed together. I did dip into the spinach and mushrooms. Delicious. You can change this up for what you have at hand. Instead of shallots, substitute scallions, onions, leeks, or ramps. Use any green you would…
Salade (Almost) Nicoise
No tuna here, so I’ve used my French Potato Salad and my French Mustard Vinaigrette. Oui, oui. The large heirloom tomatoes are done. They’re still around but don’t have that sun-ripened brightness that makes them queen of the garden throughout the hot days of summer. Cherry tomatoes hold their taste longer, probably because they are…
Spring Garlic, Pea, and Potato Spanish Tortilla
Ramps, ramps, ramps. It’s April and all we’ll hear about are ramps for the next 3 weeks. I do have some Spring garlic behind the greenhouse that are the perfect size and look just like ramps. Paired with peas and potatoes and the freshest eggs, there is no doubt it’s Spring. Just much later than…
Eggs
These are Meg’s eggs. When we had our little farm stand in our barn, we had 100 Araucana chickens. Too many chickens. Now I run down to Kimberton Health Foods and get these. No chicken poop, no roosters attacking, and no headless chickens (don’t ask). Where’s my soapbox. I only buy pastured eggs now….
Shishito Pepper Scrambled Eggs and Cheese
Yes, I must have been living under a rock, for I had never heard of shishito peppers until this past September! These little green or red peppers are the darling of the culinary world this year. So where was I? Stephanie, my farmer friend and shishito supplier, eats them every night. That’s love. So I…
Composed Salad
This photo is over the top! First I think Mardi Gras, then I’m looking for the vegetable man a la Giuseppe Arcimbold. Still, I wanted to share this because parts of this salad were purchased at Green Thumb Farmstand in Southampton, NY. Yes, I actually got out of Upper Black Eddy and had a whirlwind…
Wild Mushroom and Potato Frittata
Bet you think I spent the weekend rambling through the rainswept woods, foraging for mushrooms, and picnicking on moss.I much prefer leaving all that rambling to the professionals. Like Chris and Patty Darrah at Mainly Mushrooms. The fall harvest is in and the selection is staggering. Black foot, cauliflower, hen-of-the-woods, chantarelle, and more. I usually…
