This is turned out to be so much more than I expected. Not sure what else to say about it except to describe the occasion of its making. First note : It's completely up to you if you add alcohol - it doesn't suffer with or without it. I forgot the seltzer, and didn't notice, so that's optional as well. I made this for a thanksgiving party - I wanted to provide a drink for those both those who enjoyed a good strong beverage and for those who were abstaining. But I didn't want the abstainer to feel like they were abstaining. Enjoy this cool and remarkably complex libation.<br />

Make use of fresh herbs if you have them, but this can also be made in the middle of winter when you are starving for the summer sun. For this reason, I used dried herbs. The recipe can be made in three stages and with different choices (eggs optional). This is a "choose-your-own-adventure" meal.<br />

<br />
The Polenta -- Boil 3c of filtered water, slowly add in 1c of FINE-GROUND POLENTA. Stir until thickened to the consistency of greek yogurt, it should feel stiff but still fall in on itself. Add in 2T SALTED BUTTER, 1/2 tps SALT, and 1 cup GRATED PARMESAN. Stir till combined. Pour into 8 in square brownie pan or deep pie dish, let set and cool. (Refrigerate, if making this dish in stages.)<br />

Add 1 GARLIC CLOVE, sliced. Cook on medium until all ingredients are soft. Turn off the heat. Preheat oven to 400 (unless making dish in stages, then skip this step). Add 1c SPAGHETTI SAUCE WITH BASIL, 1tsp DRIED OREGANO, 1.5tsp DRIED BASIL, 1/2tsp DRIED THYME, S&P. Stir to combine and let rest for 10 min for flavors to combine. (Cool completely and refrigerate, if making this dish in stages.) After the 10 min spread evenly on top of the polenta, making sure it is at least 1/2 inch from the rim.<br />

Next up is the eggs, this is of course optional. You can finish this dish by just serving the polenta topped with the ratatouille and some additional grated parmesan, pesto or chiffonade basil.<br />

To serve, dollop 1/2 tsp PESTO in between the eggs and place a fresh basil leaf on top of each dollop (optional).Mozart's Nosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05389374339781833623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003799168354354398.post-61081227901501900362016-06-21T18:25:00.000-04:002016-06-21T18:25:01.503-04:00Veggie Caesar Salad Dip<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody>

In the spirit of not heating up your kitchen unnecessarily, please draw your attention to blender dips. There are many dips out there, but few incorporate the added vegetables we all could use in our diets. This is my new favorite way to eat more veggies. If you have in the back of your fridge some sad looking romaine and cucumber, this recipe is for you especially.<br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>I'm happy enough to prep tomorrow's meal just before I sit down to some shows. This dish is great, toss the radicchio in the oven and let it roast while you decompress. You can also prep the sauce beforehand.</i><br />

Melt 1 cup of a mix of COCONUT OIL and light OLIVE OIL. Turn off heat, add 1 tsp. VANILLA extract and 1/4 cup MAPLE SYRUP. Stir just to combine, it won't mix completely.<br />
<br />
In a mixing bowl, add 6 cups of ROLLED OATS, 2 tsp. GROUND GINGER, zest of two large ORANGES, 1 tsp. GROUND CARDAMON, 1 tsp. SALT, 2 cups SLIVERED ALMONDS. Grind some BLACK PEPPER for about 15 seconds or just add a large pinch. Mix it all together, so that everything is evenly incorporated.<br />
<br />
Add the oil mix Into the mixing bowl and stir everything to combine. Add the oat mixture to two 9x13 pans. Pop in the oven for 15 minutes. Stir and cook for 15 minutes more. At the end of the 15 minutes, remove it and toss in 1 cup of DRIED AND SWEETENED CRANBERRIES.<br />
<br />
This granola has a soft texture and is equally salty and sweet. If you want it to be more tooth-y, after the first 30 minutes of cooking, stir it and pop it back in the oven for another 15 minutes. I do think you sacrifice some flavor when cooking it longer, but it'll still be very tasty. If you are planning on making the crumble below - be sure to set aside 2 cups of granola sans cranberries.Mozart's Nosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05389374339781833623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003799168354354398.post-43493062306311126762016-06-10T13:49:00.005-04:002016-06-10T13:50:40.659-04:00Summer Corn Carbonara<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

Put pasta water on to boil. Chop 6 slices of BACON in bite-sized pieces, saute until fat has been rendered and the pieces are slightly crispy. Add 1/2 an ONION, finely chop and cook in the bacon fat until golden. Turn the heat down to low.<br /><br />Remove kernels from 3 ears of CORN with a sharp knife - by standing each ear on its tip and gliding your knife down, parallel to the ear of corn - essentially nicking the tops off of each kernel. Then with the edge of a spoon, scrape down the length of each ear of corn, gathering what I call 'corn mush.' This 'mush' contains the richest flavors of corn, so scrape away until the ears are dry. This can be messy, but being especially diligent has great rewards. Add the kernels and mush to the pan with bacon and onion and warm through, being sure to scrape up all the goodness that crisping bacon leaves behind, then turn off the heat.<br /><br />In a bowl, beat together 2 EGGS, 1/4 cup of grated PARMESAN, 1/8 cup of HEAVY CREAM, and PEPPER.<br /><br />Cook the SPAGHETTI in salted water, checking about 2 minutes before it's al dente and remove 1/4 cup of pasta water, before draining. Turn the pan with the bacon on high and add the pasta to the pan, tossing to coat, adding some pasta water if necessary to keep the pasta from sticking together. Once the pan is hot again, remove from heat and add the egg mixture, tossing everything until the spaghetti is evenly coated in the carbonara. Top with GROUND NUTMEG and GROUND BLACK PEPPER. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Serves Two.</div>

This past holiday season, in a desperate flurry to provide my passionately supportive family and friends, I put together a Mozart's Nose cookbook. I crafted it into a book on a popular photo printing website, printed ten copies and had the perfect gift.<br />
<br />
I see folks still occasionally visit this site, and for the foreseeable future, I'll be using this platform to jump off. I'll be busy posting the recipes from the photobook as well as to support my campaign to be a Umi homecook. To anyone that reads this and the following posts and feels so inspired, please comment - share your support. Any comments in support of my work I will use on my application to be a Umi homecook. They have a waitlist as of now, so anything that might set me above the rest, like actual comments from fans of my cooking, would be fireworks!<br />

<i>"Heat of the Day" is the distinction I'm adding to recipes that are particularly picnic friendly. As mentioned in another post, this summer most of my recipes are developed to make the best use of the most of the summers produce while at the same time are easily toted about for picnics with friends in the park or garden. This is another great picnic dish as it holds up well with a bit of sweet and a crunchy tang that hold up in the heat. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Balsamic and Basil are best friends in my book. And this is a salad to love during the summer CSA season.</i><br />

<i>Since I'm due to taste test my zucchini recipe on a friend tomorrow (that's you, Lori!) and I'm super impatient to share my "summer salivations," here's a quickie:<br /><br />No recipe, as such, is necessary for this dish. My summer days are lovely and long, so I've committed to making up a picnic dinner to take to our community garden once a week. This past week the night was coming and rainy clouds threatened, so we took our party to the roof in case we had to make a mad dash. Here's one of the "throw-together and throw downs" that I made for my sweetie.</i><br /><br /><div>
Tricorn Tomato Salad<br /><br />Serves two, generously<br /><br />1 ripe heirloom or other tasty red tomato (sans most seeds, as they are hard on the digestion)<br />2 ears of corn, raw<br />Basil<br />S&P<br /><br />Chop the tomato. Toss with kernels removed from ears of corn. Chiffonade some basil (be generous - when all is said and done, you should clearly smell the basil over the tomato and corn - I used several small handfuls). Add salt and pepper, to taste.<br /><br /><br /></div>

The anchovy fillets are REQUIRED - and with the rest of the tin, make a Caesar Salad dressing for the next day! (Email me for a recipe). Because I used chicken stock instead of beef, the anchovy and worcestershire sauce add some body without making it overly heavy.<br />
<br />
We steamed some kale and served it with a bit of butter and balsamic vinegar - it was the perfect accompaniment.<br />
<br />
1 lb stew beef<br />
olive oil or coconut oil to cover the bottom of the pan<br />
S&P<br />
<br />
1c chopped sweet onion<br />
1 qt. chicken stock<br />
4 anchovy fillets<br />
<br />
dash of cinnamon<br />
dash of cumin<br />
approx 1 T Worcestershire Sauce<br />
<br />
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed to bite-sized<br />
<br />
Dry the beef with paper towels, coat with S&P<br />
Brown the beef in olive/coconut oil<br />
<br />
Add chicken stock and onion<br />
Simmer, covered approximately two hours or until the beef is almost pulling apart, then add anchovy, spices, worcestershire and sweet potato, and stir<br />
Continue to simmer until meat is tender and sweet potatoes are done - some should be breaking down to thicken the stew. Add more broth or water if stew thickens too quickly and when you reheat the leftovers.<br />
<br />
We also had apple pie, another nice accompaniment!Mozart's Nosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05389374339781833623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003799168354354398.post-64362002533818519422011-02-18T16:38:00.000-05:002011-02-18T16:38:56.058-05:00New EmailHi All,<br />

<i>I used to write a monthly column for Waverly Fitzgerald's web magazine Living in Season - she has since wanted to go in a different direction and had to scale back her work with a monthly production. So here is the one I did for January and its really lovely, so I'd love to share it with you.</i><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">It’s a season where we can be so distracted by responsibility that our life perspective shrinks to a pinpoint.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remind yourself of what joy feels like, just take a moment to stop your worry and quiet that little voice inside. Retreat into your favorite place – I find myself visiting a place in my mind that is full of everything I need. What do you need, what do you find in this place?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Is it as soft as sinking into a pillow topped mattress with something fuzzy and warm by your side? Are you alone or with your favorite person in the whole world? </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">If you find your mind trapped inside, imagine what is outside. What or who is there to look to? Or maybe the cold outside challenges any warmth within. Inside my life is a heat that shatters any influence the cold outside might have on my aspirations for the next year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No, it is not “all sunshine and lollipops,” but it is full of love, always full of the love and care found between my family, friends, and I.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">It is during this time of year where we can find sparkle in any type of light that might shine on our situation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This tart little bread will perk up your holiday sparkle and new year shine.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

Here's why, my husband and I are in the midst of organizing a big move from San Francisco to Brooklyn. I'm also in the last throes of finishing my master's project. So I'll certainly be there to inspire and support you during the holidays, but keep in mind our "frenzy-fying" situation. Do still keep in touch and don't hesitate to get my attention. Cheers!<br />

</tbody></table>Thanksgiving came early to my household this year. Here's one of the favorite old dishes, done anew. I love, love this sauce. This is the first time that I've gone back for "seconds" and had wished I had had "thirds" the next day.<br />
<br />
Serves 2, Generously<br />
<br />
1 c. fresh cranberries<br />
1/4 c. blueberry, pomegranate, or cherry juice<br />
1/4 c. honey<br />
1/4 tsp (overflowing) almond extract<br />
1/4 c. (heaping) slivered almonds<br />
<br />
In a saucepan, add cranberries and juice. Bring to a boil or until you hear first cranberry pop. Cover and turn to low, stirring occasionally, until most cranberries have burst - about 5 min. If it seems thick add bit more juice. Stir in honey - taste for sweetness. I like mine a bit tarter, so you may want to add more honey that I've suggested.<br />
<br />
Remove from heat, stir in extract. Cool and refrigerate. 30 min to serving, remove from fridge, so that it can warm. Just before bringing to the table, stir in the slivered almonds. These stain pink if mixed in too early.<br />
<br />
If you have left overs, reheat and stir in some Amaretto liquor and a bit of water to thin the sauce into a syrup - serve over vanilla ice cream. Can also toss on top some crumbled Ameretti cookies.Mozart's Nosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05389374339781833623noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003799168354354398.post-75537749166946449452010-11-13T15:15:00.000-05:002010-11-13T15:15:15.158-05:00Subscriber's Exclusive - In SeasonThis week's 'In Season' has just been sent out.

Here's how I made use of one of them. I'm throwing this into my Thanksgiving dinner recipe arsenal. If you get these from a farm, be sure to not only rinse them off, but use a vegetable scrubber to get in the ribs as dirt tends to build up there. While minerals are an important part of dietary health, I don't recommend eating them as the ideal method of intake. Either way, rinse these well!<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice acorn squash as shown below. Be careful and use a sharp knife, the rind can be tough. Coast both sides with olive oil and S&P.<br />
