From Greg Atkinson The dark leaves of kale and red chard give this version of cole slaw an exotic look, and the perfume of sesame oil reinforces the notion that this is no ordinary slaw. The greens should marinate in the dressing for at least 20 minutes before you serve the salad. For the [...]

Debra Daniels-Zeller: Holiday Hazelnut Biscotti with Locally Produced Flour Recipe
Posted December 22nd, 2011 by Admin. Comment (0).
From DEBRA DANIELS-ZELLER One of the best things about baking for the holiday season is that so many of the ingredients can be sourced locally. But that wasn’t always true. Five years ago at farmers’ markets, eggs were scarce, butter was hard to find, and freshly ground flour was just a pipedream. With the increasing [...]
Pioneer Grass-Fed Beef and Organic Vegetable Stew Recipe
Posted December 2nd, 2011 by Admin. Comment (0).
From Greg Atkinson When folks made beef stew before World War II, all the ingredients were organic by default; agricultural chemicals were rare and expensive. Now, older folks complain that modern foods don’t have the flavor of the stuff they remember from childhood. It’s important when selecting the vegetables for this stew to choose the darkest, [...]
Whoopie! Oops! Thank Goodness! With Pumpkin Whoopie Pie Recipe
Posted December 1st, 2011 by Admin. Comment (0).
From LISA BARNES We had plans to go to friends for dinner over the weekend and they asked me to bring a dessert. I rarely make the same dessert twice. Why, when there’s so many to try? I happened to buy a Whoopie Pie cookbook (Love Foods, UK, Paragon Books). Yes, I have too many [...]

Posted November 22nd, 2011 by Admin. Comment (0).
From LISA BARNES I love pumpkins. They signify fall to me, and carving them for Halloween is just the beginning. I love their shapes, their colors (my favorite color is of course orange), and their tastes… Really everything from butter to muffins to soups to pancakes to pies to ice cream (I can go on [...]
Moist and Tender Organic Turkey with Madeira Pan Gravy Recipe

From Greg Atkinson Where a Turkey Meets the Sea The ice chest was at the bottom of the basement stairs, and an innocent visitor would never have guessed what was inside. But I knew, and my wife, Betsy, knew, that under the reinforced plastic lid of that innocuous-looking Coleman cooler, a body was bobbing around [...]
Jeff Cox: Olys… with Hangtown Fry Recipe
Posted November 11th, 2011 by Admin. Comment (0).
From JEFF COX Olympia oysters, called Olys (OH-lees) by their aficionados, are the indigenous oysters of the West Coast, from up in British Columbia down to Monterey Bay. Before the Gold Rush, they thickly encrusted the shores of San Francisco Bay. The dish called Hangtown Fry was the meal asked for by the condemned miners [...]
Lisa Barnes: Baby’s Organic Vegetable Stock Recipe
Posted November 8th, 2011 by Admin. Comment (0).
From LISA BARNES This recipe is basic yet versatile. As the vegetables simmer, they release their nutrients into the cooking water. Once you have introduced 2 of the 3 vegetable ingredients to your baby, put the nutritious stock in his bottle in place of water, or use it as a liquid for poaching fish and [...]
Greg Atkinson: New American Borscht Recipe
Posted November 2nd, 2011 by Admin. Comment (0).
From GREG ATKINSON Borscht is a quintessential Old World soup. The very name evokes a lost world, and older recipes for the soup can be daunting. The Soup volume of the 1979 Time-Life Good Cook series devotes pages to describing in elaborate detail how one might prepare “Borscht on Grand Scale,” with separate steps for [...]
