Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan: March 2010
http://cookingdrinkingswearing.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Thursday, March 25, 2010. Easy, Delicious, Cheap Carrot Soup. I made this soup on Tuesday night for dinner after experiencing a strong craving for carrot soup that afternoon. All the carrot soups I have had and made before involve ginger, which means peeling it and grating: kind of an annoying and time-consuming process. This soup was different! You can just blend it up right in the pan. So, so easy. Eh, who cares. It's yummy. Bon Appetit April 2010. Melt butte...

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan: Fettuccine di Vino with Beets
http://cookingdrinkingswearing.blogspot.com/2010/03/fettuccine-di-vino-with-beets.html
Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Thursday, March 4, 2010. Fettuccine di Vino with Beets. The following recipe is from The Spirited Vegetarian. By Paulette Mitchell, a cookbook I bought shortly after my 21st birthday and, unfortunately for the book, right before I started eating meat again. So, shamefully, I haven't really made that many recipes from it. I've had, however, great and delicious success with the ones I have tried. Fettuccine di Vino with Beets. From Paulette Mitchell's The Spirited.

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan: Kimchi Pancakes: A Qualified Success
http://cookingdrinkingswearing.blogspot.com/2010/02/kimchi-pancakes-qualified-success.html
Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Wednesday, February 24, 2010. Kimchi Pancakes: A Qualified Success. On one especially monetarily desperate evening. Recently, at the Greenpoint Food Market, I had the good fortune to try Kimchi Pancakes from Bing Means Pancakes. Feature a NYTimes recipe. I was a little put off by the inclusion of potato starch in the ingredient list. What was it? Would I have to trek all over hell and creation to find it? Would I ever use it again? Ultimately, this recipe was a...

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan: June 2009
http://cookingdrinkingswearing.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Friday, June 26, 2009. Lately, I've been trying to learn about some of the funky grains you can find in the organic (marketing speak for "heath-conscious yuppie") isle at the supermarket. It all started with a Farro. Salad I found buried in cooking magazine, then I moved onto a recipe with a bulgur. Salad that was an instant hit (with me anyway.) The recipe, Bulgar Salad with Grilled Chicken and Parsley Pesto, is here. Last night, I moved onto Barley. 1/4 cup l...

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Red Beet Risotto with Collard Greens and Goat Cheese. Of course, now that I'm an omnivore one of my favorite risottos is chorizo- both because I love chorizo and because it turns the whole dish orange! Well beets are another way to turn your risotto (and your hands and countertops) a new color. It's like dyeing Easter Eggs! I based this recipe off of this one. Red Beet Risotto with Collard Greens and Goat Cheese. 1 c arborio rice.

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Thursday, February 25, 2010. Pear-Raspberry Heart Pies: Sweets for your Sweet. And heart-shaped pies. Obviously, something had short-circuited in my brain. Further, it's worth noting that these were not a regular old Martha Stewart Everyday Food deal. Oh no. These are from Martha Stewart Living (for which I got a free subscription from my JetBlue miles. What? The "Living" in MSL means that in order to make anything from the magazine you must commit your life.

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan: May 2010

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Wednesday, May 5, 2010. It's Cinco de Mayo! Just kidding. I made these a few weeks ago. Also, someone. Once told me that Cinco de Mayo is not such a big deal in Mexico, so just sit on your sombrero until September 16th. Which are apparently in the nightshade family- cool! Apparently making vegetarian fajitas makes me a "terrorist" in the eyes of my aforementioned Mexican history expert. Recipe redacted. 2 TB vegetable oil. 1 yellow pepper, sliced. 1 pkg smallis...

Cooking, Drinking and Swearing with Meghan. Wednesday, May 13, 2009. Sober Restaurant Review: Anella. Anyway, FREEWilliamsburg has already reviewed. This place, and I agree with their assessment. Overall, it's going to be a good neighborhood spot, but they need to work out a few kinks. We started with the Terrine of the Day, a pork terrine with one of my favorite things ever (I'm just like Oprah! Pork Terrine with delicious fruit jam. This picture of my scallops is kind of crappy. Kate. In terms of servi...
