Apple Chutney Recipe – Next Time you Make Pork Chops, Try This Instead of Applesauce!

This apple chutney recipe is perfect for pork chops or on top of a pork sandwich.  This was one of those recipes that sort of came together at the last minute when cooking a pork roast for a big group of family and turned out really well.  It’s also a great way to incorporate apples [...]

Last of the Summer Squash! Pasta Primavera with Squash, Kale, Almonds and Marscapone

Summer has come and gone and as usual, I’m wishing for more of the nice weather and great fresh, simple ingredients and recipes.  Fall season is here though, and with it brings the awesome earthy, organic flavors of squash, apples and mushrooms.  I gotta say, it might be my favorite season of the food calendar.  [...]

Not-too-Sweet Autumn Dessert: Acorn Squash Pie with Apples

Growing up, acorn squash was probably my favorite vegetable.  My sister and I used to beg my mom to buy it whenever we spotted it at the grocery store, usually around this time of year.  She usually agreed, and when we got it home, she would split the squash in half, scoop out the seeds, [...]

TFD’s California Turkey Burger with Fried Onions and Butternut Squash Chips

This one is for Aimee, as since our relationship began, beef hasn’t really been on the menu much in our house.  For ecological reasons, Aimee doesn’t eat cow – a stance that I respect and admire, though one that does have me missing a good steak every now and then.  In any case, we use [...]

Deliciously Simple Tarragon, Lemon and Apple Chicken Salad

This is one of those recipes that I’ve been making for years.  In fact, chicken salad was something that I learned to do as a kid, when I preferred it over tuna salad, so I’d convince my Mom to get me canned chicken instead of canned tuna.  The recipe has evolved quite a lot over [...]

An Eleven Dollar Chicken – Classic Roast Chicken Method

This post is by our chef author Tyson Greenwood, who has cooked at such fabulous restaurants as Manresa in Los Gatos, CA and Plumpjack Cafe in San Francisco.  Tyson is currently a chef at Boulevard Restaurant on the Embarcadero in San Francisco.  It’s a real treat to have him write on TFD, please enjoy! For [...]

Early Season Farmer’s Market Bliss – Sweet Turnip Custard

Yesterday, Adrian and I were at the first farmer’s market of the season in Central Square, Cambridge, which is conveniently located less than a block from our house.  Since we used to live in California, where farmer’s markets are year-round, we never realized how much we would miss such easy access to fresh, local produce.  Now that we [...]

Beet Soup that’s not Borscht: Curried Golden Beet and Carrot Soup with Lemongrass

I know, sounds sort of weird I thought too, but this spontaneous invention tasted absolutely delicious.  Over the holidays, I was lucky enough to head back to San Francisco, my old stomping grounds.  One night we ventured into the Mission neighborhood and had dinner with some of Aimee’s family at Frjtz.  Frjtz is really a [...]

Perfect for the Holidays: Cream of Mushroom Soup

Few things in the culinary kingdom are better than mushrooms in my mind – especially when you slow cook them over low heat to get all of their moisture out and concentrate their flavor.  Comforting to no end – especially when paired with a good salad and some bread to soak it all up. Trust [...]

Easy and Delicious Wild Ingredients: Poached Salmon with Chanterelle Mushrooms Recipe

Don’t let me fool you, this recipe is rather rich and rather French.  If you’ve never poached fish, go ahead and try it with a fish with a fairly high fat content like Salmon, Sea Bass or Sardines even.  It’s tougher to overcook and will stand up better to this cooking process. Salmon is always [...]
