Kinpira Gobo
So given that we’re trying new cooking techniques this month, one of the ones that jumped out at me was kinpira, a Japanese technique involving a quick stir-fry followed by a braise, most commonly used on root vegetables. Now, I’ve likely done something like this at some point, but not on purpose as a technique.…

Gluten-free & Vegan Abelskiver (Stuffed Pancakes)
So this month is “Try a cooking technique we’ve never used before” month on the blog. I got a cast iron abelskiver pan originally to try to make an Indian dish called paniyaram, but I’m in the middle of the apple apocalypse. We’re having a bumper crop this year, and I haven’t had time to…

Basil Plum Sauce
This month, we were aiming to be inspired by what’s growing where we live. For Denise, this means what her garden is producing. For me, it means actually making time to go to the farmer’s market. I love the farmer’s market, but I’m rather lousy at managing to go shopping at a specific time every…

Gluten-free Vegan Sprinkle Cookies
We were supposed to rework recipes this month, but nothing I want to work with is actually lending itself to rehabilitation. I was stuck. Then my friends at Treehouse Bakery in Phoenix posted this amazing photo of stacks of sprinkle cookies (see July 28th) and I was obsessed. The bakery is vegan, but I don’t…

Revisited Better than Sex Rum Caramel Sauce
Well, I loved the original version of out Better Than Sex Vegan Rum Caramel Sauce. Loved it. Seriously. And then the corn allergy reared its ugly head, and then I had to put maple syrup on the suspect list because of a few odd reactions (and I’m already allergic to maple pollen), so using corn…
