Put an egg on it

May 28, 2012 by Amy Langrehr

  I’m sure you’ve heard of the Portlandia bit “Put a bird on it!” where spazzy hipsters decide that everything’s better with a bird on it. Etsy gone wild.The food version of that is “put an egg on it!” It seems to be the ultimate food porn of the moment. There are even Pinterest boards dedicated to it. I love …

Strawberry Rhubarb Compote

May 22, 2012 by Amy Langrehr

Oh, say it ain’t so… This just may be the last week or two of local strawberries and rhubarb at the farmers market. Highly recommend getting the rhubarb from Gardeners Gourmet (the folks with the lovely salad greens, herbs, cabbage and radishes…) and the strawberries from the “pea man” Thomas McCarthy of Woodside Greenhouse. (And…be …

Butter is your friend

April 26, 2012 by Amy Langrehr

Ah, desserts. They require precision and care…as well as creativity and great taste. And, what’s more…people really LOVE desserts, so you don’t want to mess them up! Dessert can be everything from delicate to deeply comforting. Some of my latest faves are strawberry rhubarb pie, chocolate cream pie and of course, (crack cocaine) salted caramel …

I scream, You scream…

April 16, 2012 by Amy Langrehr

  Remember the hilariously inappropriate Eddie Murphy stand-up about the ice cream man? Wow, remember when Eddie Murphy was funny…you know, before he started making God awful movies? Anyway…when I was a kid in the 70s, as many communities did, we had an ice cream truck. Not a lot happened in my hometown, so it was very …

We got the beet

February 29, 2012 by Amy Langrehr

Beets are a delicious, simple food I like to have on hand – especially the ones I get from my CSA share with One Straw Farm. I almost always have a container of beets in the ‘ol fridge. Say you don’t like the beet? Many people have only ever had canned ones…and ugh…no. You need to have fresh, roasted ones. Here’s …

The Source

February 1, 2012 by Amy Langrehr

I enjoy an adult beverage from time to time. And, by “from time to time” I actually mean a few nights each week, to be honest. That’s okay, right? Say right. After a long day, there’s nothing like putting your feet up, watching some tv and sipping on your favorite drink. Happiness. Luckily, I live just a few measly blocks from The Wine Source in Hampden. I noticed a …

Soup’s On

December 29, 2011 by Amy Langrehr

Courtesy of charmcitycook – Soup is the most comforting, satisfying thing to me – especially in winter. My fave in the whole world is Ina Garten’s Cheddar Corn Chowder. Cheese, corn, onions, potatoes…um, bacon…what’s not to love? Ina is not known for light cooking, so I use a little regular milk in place of the heavy cream and it’s …
