yankee food if you can buy it locally you probably ought to home about yankee food lakes region food resources why eat local yankee food if you can buy it locally you probably ought to feeds posts comments fall colors november 3 2009 by kim october and november are my favorite months to be in the woods here in new england the bugs have gone except those pesky ticks the trails are less crowded and the foliage is splendid i m not the only one out there though here in nh there are several different hunting seasons right now black bear waterfowl and small game are in season november 11 marks the height of the season with deer firearm season beginning this doesn t mean we stay out of the woods it does mean that we add our own color though posted in just plain good ideas seasonal new england 3 comments pfft pllllgh cough plack aaaaachew october 17 2009 by kim well my goodness gracious it s dusty in here folks looking for pepper freezing tips have left some fingerprints and notes but the layers of neglect had almost convinced me to let this little spot deteriorate in the backyard of a brand new well built bigger spot a spot that could house things besides food a spot that could house random photos moments that amuse me things that interest or inspire me and maybe also a pizza salad or roast this spot you see was starting to feel a little too small too specific i was bored of myself frankly and kind of tired of mediocre photos taken under the halogen light in my kitchen but a few days ago a former student stopped by she had no idea who i was no idea that she had stumbled upon the unkempt ramblings of her former gasp english teacher nothing like a blast with the past to kick you in the keyboard looking around here i now think maybe this place can be cleaned up a little addition on the back and maybe a bigger more encompassing front porch might just make a new spot unnecessary so please forgive the mess and i hope you ll check back while i work on the renovations posted in thoughts 6 comments ols week 5 look out wolfgang july 5 2009 by kim hey before we get on to the food in case you didn t notice the freakin sun came out finally july 5th marks the first day without any rain since i think i can remember or at least since like the beginning of june so everyone molding in new england can now begin to dry out hallelujah now for this week s ols meal barbeque chicken pizza photo taken after the first servings were enjoyed it s not exactly a garden meal but for a stormy damp july 4th it was perfect we had leftover barbeque chicken which we had glazed with some great sauce from stonewall kitchen mainers eh and some fresh mozzarella in the fridge i used the america s test kitchen pizza bianca recipe for the crust registration required at atk site so far this is my favorite homemade crust recipe natives king arthur flour stonewall kitchen maple chipotle barbeque sauce chicken vt mozzarella sorry can t remember the farm name garlic scapes parsley from awa y olive oil yeast salt pepper king arthur flour is an employee owned company that produces flour in vermont the wheat is not from new england but i consider the flour as local as i m going to get at this point posted in cooking eat local local food one local summer 4 comments ols 09 report weeks 1 4 june 24 2009 by kim my apologies to all the good people organizing one local summer 09 i ve been a slacker slacker slacker i should say we are still eating out of our freezer it s june and we re still supplementing the first of the green stuff with frozen beans corn and zucchini a month or so ago i figured i d gone overboard freezing stuff last summer now i m grateful so by way of contrition i offer three meals for the good of the order first smoked rock farm ribs slow baked meadow s mirth jean s beans and an apple rhubarb pie for goodness sakes folks have you made a pie crust with lard yet have ya the locals ribs beans apples rhubarb honey butter lard flour from away salt spices molasses sugar next a grill roasted local chicken with maine russets and zucchini from the freezer the highlight of this meal besides the yummy chicken was the fresh dill and chives from the yard the locals chicken zucchini potato honey dill chives butter from away salt pepper soy sauce olive oil after our first csa pickup i used arugula in a little pesto for a steak i have to say i don t love arugula i ve tried leave me alone but in a pesto with some pine nuts parmesan and olive oil it s pretty okay on a perfectly cooked lean steak the locals rock farm steak

time gone somehow people continue to stop by the blog here even though new content has been sorely lacking thank goodness for that freezing peppers post in addition to neglecting the blog i ve fallen behind on my commitment to one local summer my first three week post will be coming this week we really have been enjoying localness i m feeling ambivalent about where yankeefood is headed this spring has been cold and wet and local produce has responded in kind taking its sweet time to grow in fact my csa just put off pick ups for a week to give things a chance to get going the first strawberries are trickling in though so maybe i ll find something that inspires me to stop by more frequently at least i ll get back on track with the ols posts hopefully here s wishing everyone in new england

pepsi about two times per year i have a sudden craving for cola and i usually buy a 16oz bottle and make it last a couple of days so when that craving hit on saturday and my husband went out to run some errands i asked him to grab me a bottle he brought this back pepsi made with cane sugar then on his drive home today he heard a story on npr about these throwback drinks check it out here if you re interested i can t imagine this makes my biannual pepsi any better for me but maybe a fraction more whole posted in food adventures for fun news 6 comments thanks for coming april 18 2009 by kim i am super grateful for all the folks who continue to stop by here even though i have failed to post regularly now that spring seems to have finally sprung i m feeling a little more inspired to come out from under my winter rock and get back into the groove so thanks for continuing to check in i ll be seeing you more soon posted in thoughts 2 comments are these the perfect chocolate chip cookies march 30 2009 by kim what is it about a chocolate chip cookie that drives us to try recipe after recipe forever pursuing chocolate chip perfection whatever it is the may june yes that s right may june issue of cooks illustrated includes a tweaked version of the classic toll house cookie recipe that immediately caught my eye in my search for shangri la i shoudl say that i did not jump on the nyt chocolate chip cookie bandwagon last year and i haven t even attempted that recipe which has made the rounds of nearly every food blogger in the blogiverse i haven t found myself anywhere that i could pick up chocolate feves i don t always have cake flour and i usually want cookies now not tomorrow after resting the dough that may very well be the cookie i ve been searching for i ll just have to go there one day the ci version was appealing for it s familiar ingredients flour baking powder butter granulated sugar dark brown sugar vanilla egg chocolate chips mixed with just enough kitchen dorkiness to make it something of an adventure the real twist in this recipe is that most of the butter is melted and browned before being whisked with the sugars egg and vanilla the other different technique is to let that mixture sit for a few minutes between three rounds of whisking sunday dawned rainy and dreary around here don t get me wrong rain snow melt so i made a batch of the cookies were they perfect i m not sure they were however pretty darn good the browned butter definitely lends a toffee flavor that is more pronounced than in the everyday recipe the texture is crispy chewy and moist but i m not sure it s any better than a good traditional cookie i d definitely make these again perhaps doubling the recipe the original recipe calls for cookies made of 3 4 cup of dough yielding only 16 cookies ci likes the bigger cookie to allow for even more contrast in texture between the crispy outside and chewy inside i however wanted more than 16 cookies so i made mine smaller and ended up with 28 those will definitely be gone by wednesday a couple of other folks have already tried the recipe and have their own spin on it and familyfriendsandfood got permission to include a copy of the recipe if you d like to check out her thoughts so perfect i think maybe my perfect cookie would be warm homemade and baked by someone else in my kitchen which they clean up after serving me cookies and milk but maybe that s just me posted in baking cooking food adventures for fun 3 comments older posts yankee as in native to new england food as in stuff to eat contact me yankeefood at
