Cream of Mushroom Soup (past, present and future)
This has turned out to be a strangely epic post. I just want to let you know up front, that buried in all of this storytelling there are actually three recipes for cream of mushroom soup.
Green Salad with Asian Pear, Mint and Almonds
My husband usually leaves town for the month of January. At least, this is the third year in a row that he has done so.
Meyer Lemon Curd
Lemon curd is a creamy, tangy, sweet spread for scones or biscuits. You can also use it to fill tarts and pies or in between the layers of a cake. You can also stir it into yogurt.
Cajun Duck and Dumplings (gluten-free or not)
My husband has given me many good food ideas. He suggested putting candied orange peel in Sticky Toffee Pudding and using slow oven roasted tomatoes in Tomato Pie and he asked me to make him duck and dumplings.
Cauliflower Fried with Aromatic Spices
The other night I wanted to make some simple, spicy cauliflower to go with a meal of Spicy Lemon Date Spread, Baked Chickpea Pancake and Moroccan Carrot Salad.
Baked Chickpea Pancake with Spicy Lemon Date Spread

How to Roast a Duck, Duck, Goose Fat
This is going to be about roasting ducks, but if you want my thoughts about goose preparation, they can be found here. I am good at roasting duck.
Roasted Cauliflower and Caramelized Onion Tart (Gluten-Free)
This is ANOTHER excellent recipe from Smitten Kitchen. I made a gluten-free version for New Year’s Day and it was well loved and totally devoured. I was attracted to this recipe because I am addicted to caramelized onions…
Apple Cider Brined Chicken with Star Anise and Cinnamon
I am always looking for tasty, healthy dishes to make for my husband’s family during the holidays. They are very conscious of their fat and cholesterol intake and as a result they are very fit and healthy people.
