I made this absolutely fantastic soup the other day: I roasted a Kuri squash (sort of like a small pumpkin) and made a bisque with some other aromatics (onions, carrots and peppers) and lot and lots of curry. Its delicious and I’m seriously contemplating making another batch with my leftover squash (I bought a whole bunch and I still have two left). The one thing though, is that single color soups don’t photograph well, so the pictures aren’t all that great. Just pretend you have a whiff of the curry and that makes up for the photo. I need a scratch-and-sniff website.
October 2021
Definitely getting to be autumn here in New England. And given that I went apple picking on the weekend, I was inspired to make something “apple-ish” today. These Oatmeal cookies include King Arthur Baking apple cinnamon jammie bits and toffee chips too and are a delightful little “florentine-style” (i.e. thin and crispy) oatmeal cookie. Perfect with tea in the afternoon and *may* even be healthy enough to sneak in as a breakfast cookie. Yummy. Welcome autumn!
Starting off October right with this autumn-inspired breakfast treat: Sourdough Hazelnut Swirls aka Filbert and Alice’s Nußschnecken. Sourdough (although you could also make this with a yeast brioche dough) and a caramelly-nutty (hazelnuts, but you could also use walnuts) filling. Not too sweet, a little bit of honey inspired. Delicious straight out of the oven. These are definitely on repeat!
