Korean Kimchi Wraps A few days before Christmas, David’s uncle invited the whole family for a pre-Christmas dinner. The thing is that he’s not a fan of Christmas food. At all. So instead of traditional food he prepared a homemade Korean BBQ – with a full table of fermented and pickled vegetables, rice noodles, sauces, fresh bell pepper, seared salmon and meat ready to be thrown on the small table grills. Everyone picked a little bit of this and a little bit of that onto their plate, and wrapped it up in thin lettuce leaves. It was without a doubt one of the most delicious and unusual Christmas dinner that we have experienced. Since you just as well can make this dinner on a non-Christmas occasion, we decided to recreate a few of the recipes for you. Korean wraps is a really fun thing to do for dinner. If you for some reason haven’t heard of Kimchi before, we recommend that you immediately add it to the list of things you need to try. We have been wanting to share a kimchi recipe with you for a long time.
Clementine Marmalade & Biscuits à la Roost It is time for our second guest on Green Kitchen Stories. This time we asked Coco from Roost – one of the most beautiful blogs we know – if she would like to share a recipe. She came up with this delicious combo that she will tell you more about herself. If you haven’t visited Roost before we strongly encourage you to do so. It is such a serene place with the touch and feeling of another century. Her recipes are always refreshingly pure, easy and wholesome, and the light in her photos is incredible. I have always found it rather strange that citrus fruits rise to their peak amidst the bleak, winter season. My husband and I can consume an entire bag of clementines in just a few days, but I thought I would broaden my repertoire and pursue a more sophisticated snack, one perhaps Fanny Brawne would have while reading Keats’ latest verses :) Traditionally marmalade are an equal weight of fruit and sugar boiled together, which often lends a nice congealed texture.

ROASTED ZUCCHINI, BLACK BEAN + GOAT CHEESE ENCHILADAS Between an oven that heats the entire upstairs to 350' or a charcoal BBQ that requires a bit of forethought to get going, turning on either for summer cooking is a bit of a commitment. I have been deterred from making enchiladas for the site because they are difficult to photograph, so not only did this recipe come with an obligation to a sweaty mid-July photo session with the oven on, but also the challenge of making them look as good as they tasted. We make enchiladas pretty often. I appreciate having them for dinner and then warming them back up with scrambled eggs for a slightly different meal the next day. I've experimented with a butternut squash, greens and white cheddar version in the fall and then stuffing them with a bounty of zucchini in the summer with a slight tang of soft goat cheese. We added a few dates for upcoming book events. August 28th - Barnes & Noble Booksellers in Huntington Beach, CA at 7pm September 9th - Omnivore in San Francisco, CA at 3 pm / for serving /
Mung Bean Stew on a Budget Buying and eating healthy vegetarian whole foods is often a painfully expensive pleasure. Organic products, fresh fruits and vegetables, plant milks, special flours, nuts and seeds can easily crash any family budget. We can definitely vouch for that. For the last couple of years, our food expenses have doubtlessly been our highest cost each month. With this in mind, we have decided to start a new series on the blog called Healthy Eating on a Budget. Here are some general tips on how to eat healthy vegetarian whole foods on a budget: Choose dried. If you feel like sharing your own personal budget tips, we’d love to hear them! Mung Bean Stew & Whole Grain Rice Serves 4-6 2 cups dried mung beans, soaked in water for 8-12 hours 1 tbsp coconut oil, ghee or olive oil 1 onion, finely chopped 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped 1 tsp ground cumin 400 g frozen spinach, thawed 6 cups water 1 tsp sea salt 1 x 400 ml can full fat coconut milk 1,5 cups whole grain rice 3 cups water 1 tsp sea salt
Recipe Review: Authentic Ciabatta from Cook's Illustrated | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn Being fans of both homemade bread and Cook's Illustrated, of course we had to try the ciabatta recipe from the March/April issue! The recipe was pretty elaborate, including both a preferment made the night before and many detailed steps on baking day. But we were undaunted... If you're at all curious about baking and bread chemistry, the article preceding the recipe has a wealth of information. Although this recipe does include more steps and details than you'd find in a typical everyday bread recipe, we found that the actual hands-on time wasn't that intense. The final loaf was just lovely. The ciabatta wasn't as hole-y as we were expecting, although this seems to be the author's intention. All in all, we definitely recommend this recipe for anyone who feels like breaking out of the mold and giving artisan bread a try. Has anyone else tried this recipe yet?

Zucchini: A manifesto. Zucchini + toasted walnut “Junk Salad” with a roasted garlic + lemon drizzle {gluten-free, vegetarian}. Zucchini is one of those vegetables that, when it comes to be in season, it comes to be very much in season. For this reason (among others), it is our bad luck that it’s not currently July. But, no matter. Zucchini is also one of those vegetables that people with gardens are always trying to give away. The rule about zucchini is that, when you have a lot of it, you eat a lot of it. I remember baking zucchini bread those summers — so much zucchini bread. A salad. The much-celebrated zucchini bread is always made even more celebratory when aided by its faithful sidekick, the toasted walnut. Until the time is right, I’ll be enjoying my zucchini in moderation. Zucchini + toasted walnut “Junk Salad” with a roasted garlic + lemon drizzle {gluten-free, vegetarian}. Yields: 2 big salads Ingredients: For the salad: For the drizzle: Method: First, roast the zucchini. Like this: Like Loading...
Roasted Zucchini & Funnel Chanterelles We had a conversation with a friend a while back about the effects of cooking according to season. It might be one of the most helpful and immediate actions we can do for our environment. Choosing locally grown doesn’t only help the farmers but also on a bigger perspective. Don’t misunderstand us now, we really don’t want to preach. We will however, when it is possible for us, try even harder to share recipes according to the season. We will kick things off with something incredibly local and seasonal. Since we live in central Stockholm we don’t find a lot of food growing in our neighborhoods. When we got back home we brought two jars of honey, a bag of delicious funnel chanterelles and some fresh rhubarbs with us. Baked Zucchini & Roasted Funnel Chanterelle 1 big zucchini, squash, butternut squash or pumpkin 2 tbsp olive oil1 tbsp raw honey fresh thyme4 cloves garlic (1 for the zucchini and the rest for the chanterelles) 500 g Funnel Chanterelle or winter mushrooms

Linguine della via di Grotta Pinta 45 To tell you about this plate of pasta I need to take you back a couple of years. Back to when I was living in Rome, Italy. I had moved there to learn how to speak Italian, and I rented the most beautiful tiny tiny one bedroom apartment right in the centre of Rome, just around the corner from Campo de’ Fiori. I didn’t have any fancy kitchen appliances or large set of spices, just the very basic: one frying pan, one pot for the pasta, one knife, one small little fridge, salt, pepper, chili flakes, olive oil and a pot of fresh basil in a glass jar in my window (the jar fell down on the roof of a car on my last day in that apartment, but that’s another (very expensive) story). Like this pasta. By the way. Now, let’s eat! Linguine della via di Grotta Pinta 45Serves 4 Prepare the linguine according to package directions, but set it aside one minute too early.
