Cookbook of the Month: Roast Figs Sugar Snow

February 28, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

February’s cookbook of the month is Roast Figs Sugar Snow, a book that focuses mainly on the foods that those of us in Northern climes crave during the winter months.  While we haven’t exactly had a fierce winter this year, I wanted to review this book before another year went by – I don’t find myself wanting to roast a pheasant or gorge on cheesy pumpkin tarts in the middle of summer.  The collection of recipes in this book is […]

Plums in February

February 20, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

I know.  It’s 100% not plum season.  At least, not in Boston or anywhere else north of the equator.  But in flipping through Roast Figs Sugar Snow (isn’t that just the best cookbook name?) I kept seeing all these tantalizing plum recipes.  Like roast plums and figs in vodka with cardamom cream.  And Russian cheese pancakes with plum compote.  And plum squares.  So the other day when I walked into Wholefoods and found it to be a veritable dream of produce, I […]

Greatist Collaboration: Feta and Lentil Tabbouleh

February 17, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

Adventures in Cheesemaking

February 9, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

In the spirit of daydreaming about farming and all things homemade, Trevor and I have been dabbling in cheesemaking recently.  I’d love to say that it’s as simple as following a recipe and that we were pretty much ready to run out and buy a cow, but making cheese is hard.  It’s more science than cooking.  Very precise science.  Like, whip out your digital thermometer and pH-meter precise science.  Still, despite a few less-than-delicious final products, it’s been really cool […]
