I’m never sure when something is a “chowder” or when it has become a “stew”. I suspect that it is actually a bit arbitrary, so while I would normally call this a chowder, I’m going with stew this time. Loaded with salmon, jumbo shrimp, lots (!!!) of Maine lobster, plus potatoes, carrots and peas. Yeah, the peas are a little out of the ordinary. Because as Sunday dinner as the temperature begins to cool in Autumn!

About ten days ago or so, I baked these Low-Knead Cast-Iron Crisp-Top Dinner Rolls. They were absolutely fantastic, but I was curious to see if a whole wheat or seeded (or both) variety would work as well and turns out, it did. I made them in the same cast iron braiser that I made the others, and the tops came up nice and crispy, the flavor is also great. Overall, definitely a repeatable recipe, though in all honestly, I did like the White Flour ones better. These are a recipe to add to the rotation for sure!
Sometimes, your lunch is just so good that you want to share it with the entire world, like today. This is what happens when the garden gives you an overload of fruits (cherry tomatoes are fruits, right?); the thyme is from the garden too. This was amazingly delicious and even the pix came out better than usual. Not bad for a Friday!
Pea Pesto Parpadelle … if nothing else, it’s kinda of funny to say. And turns out, it’s yummy, summery and really quick to make — like this took no more that 20 minutes from fridge and pantry to plate. You can make this with frozen peas any time of year, but I happen to find fresh ones at the market (for those precious few weeks in the summer).
How to up your Corn on the Cob game? Instead of plain ole butter, how about using compound butters? Here are three great options: Chili Lime Butter, Garlic Herb Butter and Parmesean Ranch. All taste fantastic on corn, but definitely not limited to that. Keep some in the fridge and use them all summer.
