"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

RAH! RAMEN by Sara Childs\" width=\"300\" height=\"388\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-84208\">\u003c/a>But while you can get a quick fix of salt and carbs by tossing the block of dried noodles and seasoning into the microwave, you won't be getting much in the way of nutrition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that got Brandt starving for something that's just as convenient, but a lot healthier. He created the recipe blog College Fed (recently renamed \u003ca href=\"http://dumbeddownfood.com/\">Dumbed Down Food\u003c/a>) to test and share ways to eat healthier in the dorm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several blogs like his are now offering students — and anyone else who counts ramen as a staple — all sorts of ways to hack the ripply noodle. The simpler recipes suggest throwing in vegetables and protein to add nutritional value, much like Brandt's \u003ca href=\"http://dumbeddownfood.com/ramen-stir-fry-quick-and-easy/\">ramen stir-fry recipe\u003c/a>, which he says has been one of his more popular posts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most intriguing hacks are those that take the instant noodle out of its conventional setting. For instance, ditch the bowl and make ramen a substitute for bread in this latest craze: \u003ca href=\"http://dudefoods.com/the-ramen-noodle-grilled-cheese-sandwich/\">ramen noodle grilled cheese sandwich.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or, perhaps you prefer to bake it into a ramen frittata, packed with shredded cheese, bacon and tomatoes. Better yet, just smother it in \u003ca href=\"http://fullthymestudent.com/chocolate-top-ramen-ice-cream-sandwiches/\">chocolate and ice cream\u003c/a> for a one-of-a-kind dessert.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The possibilities are endless,\" says a graphic designer and experimental chef who uses the pen name Sara Childs. Her new book \u003cem>Rah! Rah! Ramen\u003c/em> features more than 50 speedy recipes for preparing instant noodles in the microwave. The whole idea, she says, was inspired her friend's college-bound daughter, who mentioned that she had four years of ramen to look forward to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Childs' recipes include Macmen N' Cheese, which calls for hot sauce, cheddar cheese and bacon. Or, if you're looking for some added fiber, why not try her spinach cannellini ramen soup?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a mood for something sweet?

The simpler recipes suggest throwing in vegetables and protein to add nutritional value, much like Brandt's \u003ca href=\"http://dumbeddownfood.com/ramen-stir-fry-quick-and-easy/\">ramen stir-fry recipe\u003c/a>, which he says has been one of his more popular posts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most intriguing hacks are those that take the instant noodle out of its conventional setting.

Better yet, just smother it in \u003ca href=\"http://fullthymestudent.com/chocolate-top-ramen-ice-cream-sandwiches/\">chocolate and ice cream\u003c/a> for a one-of-a-kind dessert.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The possibilities are endless,\" says a graphic designer and experimental chef who uses the pen name Sara Childs.

And this line was just as famous as the food; an entrepreneurial individual had even created a successful business renting out lawn chairs to weary BBQ fans standing on their feet for hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But we're great at rationalizing our actions. \"I'm in town for \u003ca href=\"http://sxsw.com/\" target=\"_blank\">SXSW\u003c/a>; who knows when I'll be back. Might as well stay put!\" Or \"Well, this gives me a chance to finish reading that 800-page novel,\" and \"This beer won't drink itself at 10AM.\" Several people came prepared and set up picnic blankets and had coolers full of drinks, like it was a parking lot tailgate party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery link=\"file\" ids=\"80085,80082,80086,80084,80087,80088\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So was it worth it?

Might as well wait for something fun, right? While some will wait hours, or even days, for the newest iPhone, or concert tickets, or for the doors to open on Black Friday, foodies are willing to wait for a delicious meal. And yes, we're definitely guilty of chasing trends and hyping them up and can definitely suffer from FOMO (fear of missing out.) In the end, we need to eat anyway. So for us, as this is our passionate pastime, why squander the opportunity to really enjoy our daily allotment of calories? Besides, we'll be able to flaunt the fruit of our labor later on (see Sign #4.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sign #2: Endlessly obsesses over menu before ordering.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_80102\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-80102\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/04/menu1.jpg\" alt=\"What to get, what to get?\" width=\"1024\" height=\"795\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">What to get, what to get? (Photo: Jenny Oh)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Speaking of FOMO -- this crops up whenever I go to a new restaurant, particularly one that has a lot of buzz, is out-of-town or expensive. When I know my ability to return to an establishment will be difficult -- whether due to crowds, location or the limits of my bank account -- the stakes are raised and I tend to fret over my order. Should I get what people are raving about (unless of course, it has \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/04/02/melon-and-licorice-enemies-of-my-palate/\" target=\"_blank\">melon or licorice\u003c/a> in it)? Or should I choose a more conservative entree and eschew the entree that looks like a molecular gastronomy experiment gone awry? And don't get me started on menus that are mini-novellas, with endless pages to flip through. If left to my own devices, I'd sit there for an hour studying the menu (and shamelessly gawking at other diners' plates); fortunately, a server appearing at my table will pressure me to hurry up and make up my mind. But one unexpected perk has emerged after all of these years of scrutinizing menus: I rarely experience any regrets when it comes to my meal, whereas my husband often turns to me and says, \"I should have ordered what you have.

Might as well wait for something fun, right? While some will wait hours, or even days, for the newest iPhone, or concert tickets, or for the doors to open on Black Friday, foodies are willing to wait for a delicious meal. And yes, we're definitely guilty of chasing trends and hyping them up and can definitely suffer from FOMO (fear of missing out.) In the end, we need to eat anyway. So for us, as this is our passionate pastime, why squander the opportunity to really enjoy our daily allotment of calories? Besides, we'll be able to flaunt the fruit of our labor later on (see Sign #4.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sign #2: Endlessly obsesses over menu before ordering.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_80102\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-80102\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/04/menu1.jpg\" alt=\"What to get, what to get?\" width=\"1024\" height=\"795\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">What to get, what to get? (Photo: Jenny Oh)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Speaking of FOMO -- this crops up whenever I go to a new restaurant, particularly one that has a lot of buzz, is out-of-town or expensive. When I know my ability to return to an establishment will be difficult -- whether due to crowds, location or the limits of my bank account -- the stakes are raised and I tend to fret over my order. Should I get what people are raving about (unless of course, it has \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/04/02/melon-and-licorice-enemies-of-my-palate/\" target=\"_blank\">melon or licorice\u003c/a> in it)? Or should I choose a more conservative entree and eschew the entree that looks like a molecular gastronomy experiment gone awry? And don't get me started on menus that are mini-novellas, with endless pages to flip through. If left to my own devices, I'd sit there for an hour studying the menu (and shamelessly gawking at other diners' plates); fortunately, a server appearing at my table will pressure me to hurry up and make up my mind. But one unexpected perk has emerged after all of these years of scrutinizing menus: I rarely experience any regrets when it comes to my meal, whereas my husband often turns to me and says, \"I should have ordered what you have. Can I have another bite?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sign #3: Waits to eat food until the perfect photograph is captured for posterity and social media.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_80074\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 290px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/04/Screen-Shot-2014-04-04-at-10.30.20-AM.png\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-80074\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/04/Screen-Shot-2014-04-04-at-10.30.20-AM-290x236.png\" alt=\"Food Pornography\" width=\"290\" height=\"236\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yours truly, food pornographer in action while husband waits...and waits. \u003ca href=\"https://flic.kr/p/5AS7xf\" target=\"_blank\">(Dennis Pasco/Flickr)\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>So to answer the earlier question of whether my three-hour-wait-for-a-plate-of-BBQ was worth it -- the answer is yes.

And he didn't realize it would take six months, either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Johnson was hired as the new food writer for Grist, a website for environmental news and opinion. Grist's editor, \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/article/2011-09-12-meet-scott-rosenberg-grists-new-executive-editor/\">Scott Rosenberg\u003c/a>, was waiting with an assignment: Dig into the controversy over GMOs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GMOs \"were a unique problem for us,\" says Rosenberg. On the one hand, most of Grist's readers and supporters despise GMOs, seeing them as a tool of corporate agribusiness and chemical-dependent farming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the other hand, says Rosenberg, he'd been struck by the passion of people who defended this technology, especially scientists. It convinced him that the issue deserved a fresh look.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When I met \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/author/nathanael-johnson/\">Nathanael\u003c/a>, I thought, 'This is a writer who could do this really well,' \" recalls Rosenberg.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson came to this assignment with the kind of skepticism about green orthodoxy that comes from growing up immersed in it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was born into the cult of organic,\" he \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/beyond-gut-instinct-a-manifesto-for-clean-eating-and-clear-thinking/\">wrote\u003c/a> in one of his first Grist columns. His parents were \"Berkeley hippies\" who moved back to the land in Nevada City, Calif. Growing up there \"gave me a front-row seat from which to observe how faith in nature could spin into fuzzy thinking and paranoia,\" Johnson wrote. \"I loved science because it could separate plausible and crazy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson dove into his GMO assignment with that same devotion to weighing the evidence. If you're confused by the long-running GMO fight — and even more if your mind is already made up — it's worth reading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Be warned, though: You'll need some stamina. There are several notable things about this online experiment in explanatory journalism, and the first is its length. Johnson covers questions both obvious (Are GMO foods\u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/the-gm-safety-dance-whats-rule-and-whats-real/\"> tested\u003c/a> for safety?) and obscure (Are independent scientists \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/genetically-modified-seed-research-whats-locked-and-what-isnt/\">banned\u003c/a> from carrying out research on GMOs?).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More unusual, though, is its approach. In an online world of snark and smack-downs, Johnson presents his work as a humble quest for truth. For the most part, he convinces you that it's an honest search, and that he's not sure, himself, where he'll end up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where he ends up, in fact, is the final surprising thing about this series. Instead of preaching to the deep-green choir, Johnson questions its faith. He challenges many of the anti-GMO views that Grist's readers are used to seeing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which doesn't put him squarely in the pro-GMO camp, either. Unlike British polemicist Mark Lynas, who switched sides in this debate, Johnson is all about nuance. Are GMOs bad for the environment? Well, yes and no. They've allowed farmers to \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/in-the-insecticide-wars-gmos-have-so-far-been-a-force-for-good/\">cut\u003c/a> their use of insecticides while \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/roundup-ready-aim-spray-how-gm-crops-lead-to-herbicide-addiction/\">increasing\u003c/a> the use of chemical weed-killers.

His parents were \"Berkeley hippies\" who moved back to the land in Nevada City, Calif. Growing up there \"gave me a front-row seat from which to observe how faith in nature could spin into fuzzy thinking and paranoia,\" Johnson wrote. \"I loved science because it could separate plausible and crazy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson dove into his GMO assignment with that same devotion to weighing the evidence. If you're confused by the long-running GMO fight — and even more if your mind is already made up — it's worth reading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Be warned, though: You'll need some stamina. There are several notable things about this online experiment in explanatory journalism, and the first is its length. Johnson covers questions both obvious (Are GMO foods\u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/the-gm-safety-dance-whats-rule-and-whats-real/\"> tested\u003c/a> for safety?) and obscure (Are independent scientists \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/genetically-modified-seed-research-whats-locked-and-what-isnt/\">banned\u003c/a> from carrying out research on GMOs?).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More unusual, though, is its approach. In an online world of snark and smack-downs, Johnson presents his work as a humble quest for truth. For the most part, he convinces you that it's an honest search, and that he's not sure, himself, where he'll end up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where he ends up, in fact, is the final surprising thing about this series. Instead of preaching to the deep-green choir, Johnson questions its faith. He challenges many of the anti-GMO views that Grist's readers are used to seeing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which doesn't put him squarely in the pro-GMO camp, either. Unlike British polemicist Mark Lynas, who switched sides in this debate, Johnson is all about nuance. Are GMOs bad for the environment? Well, yes and no. They've allowed farmers to \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/in-the-insecticide-wars-gmos-have-so-far-been-a-force-for-good/\">cut\u003c/a> their use of insecticides while \u003ca href=\"http://grist.org/food/roundup-ready-aim-spray-how-gm-crops-lead-to-herbicide-addiction/\">increasing\u003c/a> the use of chemical weed-killers. More effective weed control is good for crop yields but bad for the Monarch butterfly. And so on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of Grist's readers haven't appreciated the nuance, and reacted to Johnson's series with the kind of anger that's reserved for those who betray a righteous cause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I've got news for Johnson,\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.gmwatch.org/index.php/news/archive/2013/15019-nathanael-johnson-a-beacon-in-the-smog\">wrote\u003c/a> Claire Robinson, from GM Watch. \"Misleading the readers of an until-now respected publication like Grist doesn't make him exciting, creative or cool.

That proved to be a good move on both the personal and professional front.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fast forward to today and the newly-engaged Gordon, who writes regularly for \u003ca href=\"http://www.thekitchn.com/authors/megang\">The Kitchn\u003c/a> and on her popular, whimsical blog \u003ca href=\"http://asweetspoonful.com/\">A Sweet Spoonful\u003c/a>, is also a new cookbook author, with the release of \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Whole-Grain-Mornings-Breakfast-Recipes-Seasons/dp/1607745003\">Whole-Grain Mornings: New Breakfast Recipes to Span the Seasons\u003c/a>\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://wholegrainmornings.com/\">cookbook\u003c/a> reflects Gordon's sunny, healthful, can-do sensibility and thoughtful approach to pretty much every thing she takes on. That includes her granola business, \u003ca href=\"http://margegranola.com/\">Marge\u003c/a>, which has gone gangbusters since she headed further north and has received nice nods from \u003cem>The Wall Street Journal\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Sunset\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gordon, a former \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/author/megangordon/\">regular contributor to this column\u003c/a>, is also my friend (full disclosure).

Photo: Clare Barboza\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What's the philosophy behind your new cookbook? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I hope to introduce new grains and make them approachable for the home cook. Whole grains can still have connotations of dusty bulk bins and hippy grocery stores. In this book I seek to change that by introducing home cooks to grains that may be new to them (millet, farro, amaranth) with recipes that appeal to both sweet and savory breakfast eaters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whole grains are the center of each recipe – they’re how I like to start my day because they’re filling, yet don’t weigh me down, and are packed with protein and fiber. But that being said, you won’t find recipes lacking in indulgence either: There's Cheesy Chive Millet Grits, Quick Breakfast Fried Rice, and a Strawberry Oat Breakfast Crisp. I’m more of a savory kind of breakfast person these days so you’ll find recipes in this book that, for some folks, might be unexpected at the breakfast table. Dishes like Zucchini Farro Cakes, savory tarts, frittatas, and a buckwheat hash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This book recognizes that what we eat on a workday Wednesday morning looks drastically different from what we might prepare on a leisurely Sunday. And similarly, my morning meals on a cold, blustery January morning look a lot different than they do in the bright morning light of July. I recognize the different way we eat with a seasonal organization and categories within each season that include “Busy Weekdays,” “Slow Sundays” and “Brunch.” In this way, I hope the book becomes a truly useful morning resource (with sections on storing and cooking grains as well as useful information on building a whole-grain pantry) for home cooks looking for something healthy and delicious to prepare for themselves, their families, or their friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I also want readers to feel empowered to take a recipe or idea from this book and make it their own. We’re all different kinds of cooks and eaters and in \u003cem>Whole-Grain Mornings\u003c/em> I’ve given readers numerous ideas for ways to think beyond the recipe. Also, there are dozens of “make ahead” suggestions aiming to make morning meals more do-able on a daily basis without major prep or cook time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is this a health cookbook?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t consider it a “health book” or a reference on whole-grain cooking. You’ll find cheese and butter and even bacon in these pages. But each recipe features whole grains as the star because they’re a nourishing way to start the morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you a \"breakfast is the most important meal of the day\" kinda gal?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breakfast is the cornerstone of the day. Even if it’s small and effortless--a bowl of my Triple-Coconut Quinoa Porridge on the way out the door—it’s giving your body the nutrition you need to get the day started. And, I think, it sends the message that, amidst all the craziness in our day-to-day lives, feeding yourself well is important.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://margegranola.com/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/marge-granola-screenshot1.jpg\" alt=\"Marge Granola website\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why did you start your own granola company?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I began Marge Granola largely by accident. I was a high school English teacher and was laid off, so I started working at a restaurant in their catering department, became curious with what was going on in the bakery, and began helping out. Soon I decided that was really what I wanted to do full time – on my own. I began Marge as a baking business in the Bay Area that sold mostly pies and some granola at farmers' markets and to private clients. But the granola was what people were talking about, what got covered in the press, and what I most enjoyed making. So when I moved up to Seattle, it’s what I decided to focus on full time. Now, it's distributed up and down the West Coast and moving East, we do a brisk online business, and I'm selling it at Seattle farmers' markets, which is a great way to connect to my new community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is granola your standard breakfast then?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the warmer months, absolutely. I love to dress up plain yogurt with Marge granola and seasonal berries. It’s a great travel snack and I’ve started to fold granola into cookies and bars to amp up the texture, crunch, and nutrition.

While the reality of hectic weekdays simply doesn’t allow for that terribly often, I love to try new recipes and ways to prepare old favorites in the winter. That's reflected in my book in my take on muffins: Pear Hazelnut Oat; porridge: Savory Barley with Mushrooms and Parmesan; and baked goods: Whole-Grain Gingerbread. Winter tends to be a time, too, when the indulgence of the holidays becomes apparent and cleaner, lighter meals are welcome.

I also learned something I’d always suspected was true: simplicity rules.

Store in an airtight container for 3 to 4 weeks or refrigerate for up to 6 weeks (if refrigerating, keep the apricots in a separate sealed bag and add them as you enjoy your granola so they don’t become hard and dry.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Greens \u003cem>and\u003c/em> Grains Scramble\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>This is the breakfast Sam and I probably eat most often regardless of the season. In truth, it’s usually a dish we whip up as a late breakfast on weekdays when we’re both working from home and most emails have been returned. It’s wonderfully versatile and allows you to use up any leftover grains you have from previous meals, folding in leafy greens for a bit of color. In that sense, think of it more as a template rather than a hard-and-fast approach. Any leafy greens and most grains will work, although I veer away from small, delicate grains like amaranth because they can get lost in the dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_76235\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/WGMN-Greens-and-Grains-Scramble700.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-76235\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/WGMN-Greens-and-Grains-Scramble700.jpg\" alt=\"Greens and Grains Scramble.

Whole grains can still have connotations of dusty bulk bins and hippy grocery stores. In this book I seek to change that by introducing home cooks to grains that may be new to them (millet, farro, amaranth) with recipes that appeal to both sweet and savory breakfast eaters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whole grains are the center of each recipe – they’re how I like to start my day because they’re filling, yet don’t weigh me down, and are packed with protein and fiber. But that being said, you won’t find recipes lacking in indulgence either: There's Cheesy Chive Millet Grits, Quick Breakfast Fried Rice, and a Strawberry Oat Breakfast Crisp. I’m more of a savory kind of breakfast person these days so you’ll find recipes in this book that, for some folks, might be unexpected at the breakfast table. Dishes like Zucchini Farro Cakes, savory tarts, frittatas, and a buckwheat hash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This book recognizes that what we eat on a workday Wednesday morning looks drastically different from what we might prepare on a leisurely Sunday. And similarly, my morning meals on a cold, blustery January morning look a lot different than they do in the bright morning light of July. I recognize the different way we eat with a seasonal organization and categories within each season that include “Busy Weekdays,” “Slow Sundays” and “Brunch.” In this way, I hope the book becomes a truly useful morning resource (with sections on storing and cooking grains as well as useful information on building a whole-grain pantry) for home cooks looking for something healthy and delicious to prepare for themselves, their families, or their friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I also want readers to feel empowered to take a recipe or idea from this book and make it their own. We’re all different kinds of cooks and eaters and in \u003cem>Whole-Grain Mornings\u003c/em> I’ve given readers numerous ideas for ways to think beyond the recipe. Also, there are dozens of “make ahead” suggestions aiming to make morning meals more do-able on a daily basis without major prep or cook time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is this a health cookbook?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t consider it a “health book” or a reference on whole-grain cooking. You’ll find cheese and butter and even bacon in these pages. But each recipe features whole grains as the star because they’re a nourishing way to start the morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you a \"breakfast is the most important meal of the day\" kinda gal?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breakfast is the cornerstone of the day. Even if it’s small and effortless--a bowl of my Triple-Coconut Quinoa Porridge on the way out the door—it’s giving your body the nutrition you need to get the day started. And, I think, it sends the message that, amidst all the craziness in our day-to-day lives, feeding yourself well is important.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://margegranola.com/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/marge-granola-screenshot1.jpg\" alt=\"Marge Granola website\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why did you start your own granola company?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I began Marge Granola largely by accident. I was a high school English teacher and was laid off, so I started working at a restaurant in their catering department, became curious with what was going on in the bakery, and began helping out. Soon I decided that was really what I wanted to do full time – on my own. I began Marge as a baking business in the Bay Area that sold mostly pies and some granola at farmers' markets and to private clients. But the granola was what people were talking about, what got covered in the press, and what I most enjoyed making. So when I moved up to Seattle, it’s what I decided to focus on full time. Now, it's distributed up and down the West Coast and moving East, we do a brisk online business, and I'm selling it at Seattle farmers' markets, which is a great way to connect to my new community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is granola your standard breakfast then?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the warmer months, absolutely. I love to dress up plain yogurt with Marge granola and seasonal berries. It’s a great travel snack and I’ve started to fold granola into cookies and bars to amp up the texture, crunch, and nutrition. In the winter months, I’m an oatmeal gal. But always whole grains, regardless of the season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is there anything about winter that impacts what's at the breakfast table in your home?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Winter is a time that welcomes turning inward and slowing down a bit.

I use my hands at this point so that all of the wet and dry ingredients are evenly mixed together. Turn the mixture out onto the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Bake until fragrant and golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Stir every 15 to 20 minutes to ensure the granola bakes evenly. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet. If the granola doesn’t seem as toasty and crunchy as you’d like, it will firm up considerably as it cools. Stir in the apricots and crystallized ginger once the granola has cooled. Store in an airtight container for 3 to 4 weeks or refrigerate for up to 6 weeks (if refrigerating, keep the apricots in a separate sealed bag and add them as you enjoy your granola so they don’t become hard and dry.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Greens \u003cem>and\u003c/em> Grains Scramble\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>This is the breakfast Sam and I probably eat most often regardless of the season. In truth, it’s usually a dish we whip up as a late breakfast on weekdays when we’re both working from home and most emails have been returned. It’s wonderfully versatile and allows you to use up any leftover grains you have from previous meals, folding in leafy greens for a bit of color. In that sense, think of it more as a template rather than a hard-and-fast approach. Any leafy greens and most grains will work, although I veer away from small, delicate grains like amaranth because they can get lost in the dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_76235\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/WGMN-Greens-and-Grains-Scramble700.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-76235\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/01/WGMN-Greens-and-Grains-Scramble700.jpg\" alt=\"Greens and Grains Scramble.

There are many varieties of Fontina, from Swiss to Italian, with some fine specimens even coming out of Wisconsin. Each has its own unique profile, so be sure to taste them all and pick the one that you like best. Regardless of which you choose, you will get a nice, semi-hard texture and subtle mushroomy flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It just so happens that Fontina pairs beautifully with the sugary flavors of a good baking pumpkin. This recipe, baked inside the pumpkin—a trick inspired by Dorie Greenspan and Ruth Reichl, both famous for their stuffed-pumpkin recipes (among other things)—simply knocked our socks off with flavor and a stylish yet homey presentation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although best with Fontina (and a touch of Gruyere, another Alpine favorite), this recipe is flexible and can use whatever cheeses, meats, onions, or extra pasta you have on hand. Feel free to experiment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cut a circle from the top of the pumpkin at a 45-degree angle, the way you would cut open a pumpkin to make a jack-o’-lantern, and set aside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scoop out the seeds and strings as best you can. Generously salt and pepper the inside of the pumpkin, pop the top back on it, place it on a rimmed baking dish (since the pumpkin may leak or weep a bit), and bake for 45 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. If the sausages are in their casings, remove the meat and discard the casings. Crumble the sausage meat into small chunks and cook until lightly browned. Remove the sausage from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside to cool. Discard the drippings, or save for gravy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Also while the pumpkin bakes, cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain through a colander and rinse with cool water to stop the cooking process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. In a bowl, toss together the Fontina, Gruyère, sausage, pasta, scallions, and herbs. Once the pumpkin is done baking, take it out of the oven and fill it with the macaroni and cheese. Pour the cream over the filling. Place the top back on the pumpkin and bake for 1 hour, taking the top off for the last 15 minutes so the cheese on top of the filling can properly brown. If the top cream still seems a bit too wobbly and liquid, give it another 10 minutes in the oven. The cream may bubble over a bit, which is fine. If the pumpkin splits while baking, as occasionally happens, be thankful you set it in a rimmed baking dish and continue to bake as normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Allow the pumpkin to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Be careful moving the dish, as the pumpkin may be fragile. You can serve this dish two ways: Cut it into sections and serve them, or just scoop out the insides with scrapings of the pumpkin flesh for each serving. Either way is just dandy. Salt and pepper to taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alternative cheeses:\u003c/strong> Fontina and Gruyère are widely available and are best used for this recipe, but feel free to try your favorite cheese. We particularly like Valley Ford’s Estero Gold or its Highway 1 Fontina, as well as Roth Käse’s MezzaLuna Fontina. If you want to try something radical, a creamy blue cheese like Buttermilk Blue or Cambozola will do nicely too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Wine pairings:\u003c/strong> white Rhône Valley blends, Viognier, oaky Chardonnay, champagne\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Additional pairings for the cheese:\u003c/strong> apples, toasted walnuts, toasted hazelnuts\u003c/p>\n\n",

Once the pumpkin is done baking, take it out of the oven and fill it with the macaroni and cheese. Pour the cream over the filling. Place the top back on the pumpkin and bake for 1 hour, taking the top off for the last 15 minutes so the cheese on top of the filling can properly brown. If the top cream still seems a bit too wobbly and liquid, give it another 10 minutes in the oven. The cream may bubble over a bit, which is fine. If the pumpkin splits while baking, as occasionally happens, be thankful you set it in a rimmed baking dish and continue to bake as normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Allow the pumpkin to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Be careful moving the dish, as the pumpkin may be fragile. You can serve this dish two ways: Cut it into sections and serve them, or just scoop out the insides with scrapings of the pumpkin flesh for each serving. Either way is just dandy. Salt and pepper to taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alternative cheeses:\u003c/strong> Fontina and Gruyère are widely available and are best used for this recipe, but feel free to try your favorite cheese. We particularly like Valley Ford’s Estero Gold or its Highway 1 Fontina, as well as Roth Käse’s MezzaLuna Fontina. If you want to try something radical, a creamy blue cheese like Buttermilk Blue or Cambozola will do nicely too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Wine pairings:\u003c/strong> white Rhône Valley blends, Viognier, oaky Chardonnay, champagne\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
