Since 2001, I designed, produced, managed and contributed to mostly food-related websites and blogs for KQED including: KQED.org; KQED Food; Bay Area Bites; Check, Please! Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

After spending time in Boston developing recipes for America's Test Kitchen and pretending to be a New Englander, she moved to sunny Berkeley. Here she works as a personal chef and food writer, covering topics ranging from taco trucks to modernist cookbooks. In addition to KQED's Bay Area Bites, Kate's work appears on Serious Eats, Berkeleyside NOSH, The Oxford American, America's Test Kitchen cookbooks, and Food52.",

But they are an especially pleasing fresh note when you grow tired of heavy winter fare. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was inspired to make these by one of my favorite starters at Schmidt’s, a San Francisco German beer and sausage restaurant in the Mission.

And this feast brings it. Inspired by a steakhouse, this menu takes it a notch above with roasted beef tenderloin bathed in mushroom-port sauce, earthy root vegetable mash, and velvety creamed chard. Tender, buttery pull-apart rolls are worth making your own, and bitter-sweet-salty endive, radicchio, pear, almond, and blue cheese salad makes a welcome appearance. Top it all off with lighter-than-air chocolate raspberry souffles (easier than you'd think) and you have a holiday meal that will leave your friends and family in awe (and likely very full and satisfied).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/12/18/tender-buttery-pull-apart-rolls-for-christmas-dinner/\">\u003cstrong>Tender, Buttery Pull-Apart Rolls for Christmas Dinner\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nFluffy, supple, and feather-light, these versatile pull-apart rolls deserve a place at your next celebration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91070\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/12/18/tender-buttery-pull-apart-rolls-for-christmas-dinner/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/rolls-final.jpg\" alt=\"Pull-Apart Dinner Rolls.

Once the first cup of sugar has dissolved, add another cup and stir until the mixture returns to a simmer. At first, the fruit mixture will emit a lot of steam, and will form large, fluffy white bubbles. As the mixture cooks (and the water evaporates), it will noticeably thicken and the bubbles will become wet and sticky. At this point, you will need to stir frequently to prevent any fruit from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning. Continue to simmer until the mixture reads 220 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. This temperature indicates that enough water has evaporated out of the mixture for it to form chewy candies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I like to give the mixture several stirs after I first get a 220-degree reading. Thick, sugar-filled mixtures tend to form hot pockets, so the temperature is not consistent throughout the pot. After stirring the first few times, I find that the mixture is almost never at 220 degrees, so I continue to cook it until I can get an even 220-degree reading throughout the mixture. The entire cooking process will take 20 to 30 minutes. Be patient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91376\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/poured-into-pan.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-91376\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/poured-into-pan.jpg\" alt=\"After cooking, the fruit mixture will be thick and sticky.

It’ll take an hour or two, depending on the temperature and humidity of the room.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this point, the only thing left to do is to cut and coat the candies. I like to cut the candies into 1-inch squares, but if you have kids (or if you’re simply channeling one), you could go crazy with cookie cutters and make fun shapes. Cutting out the candy is much easier if you spray your knife or cookie cutters with nonstick oil spray to prevent sticking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91378\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/cut-into-logs.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-91378\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/cut-into-logs.jpg\" alt=\"I cut my candies into squares by first coating the set fruit mixture in sugar and then cutting it up using a sharp knife.

Grease with nonstick oil spray.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Combine applesauce, 1 cup sugar, pomegranate juice, pectin, and lemon juice in a large pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in 1 more cup of sugar, and continue to simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture reads 220 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, about 20 minutes. Stir the mixture thoroughly and take the temperature again. If it still reads 220 degrees, remove from heat. If not, continue to cook for 5 to 10 more minutes, until the mixture comes to temperature.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Stir in the lemon zest and transfer fruit mixture to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top. Let the fruit mixture sit at room temperature until set, 1 to 2 hours.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Once the fruit mixture has set, sprinkle 1/4 cup of the remaining sugar across a cutting board. Flip the pâte de fruit out onto the sugar. Sprinkle the remaining sugar over the top of the pâte de fruit. Use a sharp knife to cut the pâte into 1-inch squares. Coat the sides of the candies with the sugar remaining on the cutting board.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Transfer the candies to an airtight storage container lined with parchment paper. The sugar coating will dissolve over time, so if you are not serving or gifting the candies right away, you will need to coat them with additional sugar.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\n",

Thick, sugar-filled mixtures tend to form hot pockets, so the temperature is not consistent throughout the pot. After stirring the first few times, I find that the mixture is almost never at 220 degrees, so I continue to cook it until I can get an even 220-degree reading throughout the mixture. The entire cooking process will take 20 to 30 minutes.

And you might be surprised to know that these are not only incredibly easy to make, but take little hands on time. The result is well worth forgoing any pre-packaged dinner rolls that you can find at the supermarket. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that’s not enough to sway you, here’s another great reason to have this recipe in your list of go-tos: this is a great, versatile dough. While pull-apart rolls are one of the simpler options (the rolls are proofed and baked in cake pans, and bake up together), you can also use this dough to make Parker House rolls or Cloverleaf rolls. You can even divide the dough into 10 pieces instead of 18 and shape them into hamburger buns or hot dog buns; just bake those on a parchment-lined baking sheet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However you decide to shape the dough, you’ll be rewarded with lots of oohs and aahs come dinnertime. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91074\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/rolls-ingredients.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/rolls-ingredients.jpg\" alt=\"Pull-Apart Dinner Rolls ingredients.

And you might be surprised to know that these are not only incredibly easy to make, but take little hands on time. The result is well worth forgoing any pre-packaged dinner rolls that you can find at the supermarket. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that’s not enough to sway you, here’s another great reason to have this recipe in your list of go-tos: this is a great, versatile dough. While pull-apart rolls are one of the simpler options (the rolls are proofed and baked in cake pans, and bake up together), you can also use this dough to make Parker House rolls or Cloverleaf rolls. You can even divide the dough into 10 pieces instead of 18 and shape them into hamburger buns or hot dog buns; just bake those on a parchment-lined baking sheet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However you decide to shape the dough, you’ll be rewarded with lots of oohs and aahs come dinnertime. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91074\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/rolls-ingredients.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/rolls-ingredients.jpg\" alt=\"Pull-Apart Dinner Rolls ingredients.

I’m not a big steak person, but this is really special, and just thinking about it makes my mouth water. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cut from the short loin section, this large boneless roast is one of the most tender pieces of beef you can buy. Which also makes it an expensive cut of meat (and one that I reserve exclusively for very special occasions, such as the holidays). Because of that, the pressure is on: you don’t want to screw it up!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Be sure to select a good-quality cut of meat from a reputable butcher or market. You can use this recipe to prepare a whole tenderloin, which can range in size from 4 to 6 lbs. Or, have your butcher cut a smaller tenderloin—I used a 3 lb roast—for fewer people. Ideally choose the thicker butt end, although if you get the tail end, tuck the tail under and tie the roast every 1 to 2 inches; this ensures that the roast is about the same size throughout and will roast evenly. Also, make sure you trim the silverskin off of the tenderloin (before you tie it!), as the silverskin becomes tough when cooked, and makes the tenderloin difficult to slice once roasted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because I always make this with a flavorful sauce to serve alongside, there’s no need to do anything much to the tenderloin except season it with salt and pepper and pop it into the oven (in a roasting pan, on a rack) to roast. \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Here are the temperatures you are aiming for when roasting:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>120°F to 125°F for rare\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>125°F to 130°F for medium rare\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Once you take the tenderloin out and transfer it to a cutting board, tent it loosely with foil and let it rest for at least 20 or up to 30 minutes before slicing. This gives the meat a chance to re-absorb the liquid inside, keeping it juicy and flavorful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enjoy this with that incredible bottle of full-bodied red wine that you’ve been saving.

I’m not a big steak person, but this is really special, and just thinking about it makes my mouth water. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cut from the short loin section, this large boneless roast is one of the most tender pieces of beef you can buy. Which also makes it an expensive cut of meat (and one that I reserve exclusively for very special occasions, such as the holidays). Because of that, the pressure is on: you don’t want to screw it up!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Be sure to select a good-quality cut of meat from a reputable butcher or market. You can use this recipe to prepare a whole tenderloin, which can range in size from 4 to 6 lbs. Or, have your butcher cut a smaller tenderloin—I used a 3 lb roast—for fewer people. Ideally choose the thicker butt end, although if you get the tail end, tuck the tail under and tie the roast every 1 to 2 inches; this ensures that the roast is about the same size throughout and will roast evenly. Also, make sure you trim the silverskin off of the tenderloin (before you tie it!), as the silverskin becomes tough when cooked, and makes the tenderloin difficult to slice once roasted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because I always make this with a flavorful sauce to serve alongside, there’s no need to do anything much to the tenderloin except season it with salt and pepper and pop it into the oven (in a roasting pan, on a rack) to roast. \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Here are the temperatures you are aiming for when roasting:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>120°F to 125°F for rare\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>125°F to 130°F for medium rare\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Once you take the tenderloin out and transfer it to a cutting board, tent it loosely with foil and let it rest for at least 20 or up to 30 minutes before slicing. This gives the meat a chance to re-absorb the liquid inside, keeping it juicy and flavorful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>When I was a kid, I had a borderline obsession with White Cheddar Cheez-It crackers. I actually wouldn’t even touch the standard orange variety — their bright color simply couldn’t compete with that finger-licking white powder coating each of my favorite crackers. I’ve stopped buying Cheez-Its myself (they’re dangerous to have in the kitchen), but I’ll still gladly dig into a box should it appear at a friend’s house. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even better than these clandestine nibbles are cheese crackers made at home. Sure, they may not come coated in cheese powder, but their flavor is unmatched by anything you can find in the store. Plus, you can customize the cheese blend, as well as add any flavorful accoutrements, as you see fit. Homemade crackers seem intimidating, but they're basically just savory cookies — something anyone can make. Plus, a jar of these crackers makes a great stocking stuffer or hostess gift for the holidays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91001\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/grated-cheese.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/grated-cheese.jpg\" alt=\"Finely grate the cheese for best results.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Start by gathering your cheese.\u003c/strong> I like to use a mix of sharp white cheddar for nostalgia’s sake and Parmesan for its salty aged flavor. You can use a different mix if you prefer, but don’t go overboard with soft cheeses like blue, chevre, or mozzarella. The crackers won’t hold up as well. Finely grate the cheese to make sure that it fully incorporates into the cracker dough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>From here, the cracker recipe proceeds just like cookies:\u003c/strong> First, cream butter together with the cheese. A stand mixer makes the dough super easy to throw together, but you could make it by hand if you don’t have a mixer. I also like to add salt and a hefty dose of cracked black pepper. The pepper is an excellent foil to the salty, creamy cheese, but feel free to go crazy with whatever spices you like. Smoked paprika would taste great, as would herbes de Provence. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91002\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/ground-pepper.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/ground-pepper.jpg\" alt=\"A full teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper adds a bite to these crackers.

The cornstarch lowers the gluten content of the dough. Unlike cookies, these crackers don’t contain a ton of butter, which coats the flour and prevents long strands of gluten from forming. Long gluten strands equal tough crackers — not a good thing. Adding a bit of cornstarch makes up for the low amount of butter, and it keeps the crackers crisp and light. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91003\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/mixed-dough.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/mixed-dough.jpg\" alt=\"The cracker dough comes together in a matter of minutes.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>When I was a kid, I had a borderline obsession with White Cheddar Cheez-It crackers. I actually wouldn’t even touch the standard orange variety — their bright color simply couldn’t compete with that finger-licking white powder coating each of my favorite crackers. I’ve stopped buying Cheez-Its myself (they’re dangerous to have in the kitchen), but I’ll still gladly dig into a box should it appear at a friend’s house. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even better than these clandestine nibbles are cheese crackers made at home. Sure, they may not come coated in cheese powder, but their flavor is unmatched by anything you can find in the store. Plus, you can customize the cheese blend, as well as add any flavorful accoutrements, as you see fit. Homemade crackers seem intimidating, but they're basically just savory cookies — something anyone can make. Plus, a jar of these crackers makes a great stocking stuffer or hostess gift for the holidays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91001\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/grated-cheese.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/grated-cheese.jpg\" alt=\"Finely grate the cheese for best results.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Start by gathering your cheese.\u003c/strong> I like to use a mix of sharp white cheddar for nostalgia’s sake and Parmesan for its salty aged flavor. You can use a different mix if you prefer, but don’t go overboard with soft cheeses like blue, chevre, or mozzarella. The crackers won’t hold up as well. Finely grate the cheese to make sure that it fully incorporates into the cracker dough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>From here, the cracker recipe proceeds just like cookies:\u003c/strong> First, cream butter together with the cheese. A stand mixer makes the dough super easy to throw together, but you could make it by hand if you don’t have a mixer. I also like to add salt and a hefty dose of cracked black pepper. The pepper is an excellent foil to the salty, creamy cheese, but feel free to go crazy with whatever spices you like. Smoked paprika would taste great, as would herbes de Provence. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91002\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/ground-pepper.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/ground-pepper.jpg\" alt=\"A full teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper adds a bite to these crackers.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Next, mix in the dry ingredients.\u003c/strong> I use a blend of all-purpose flour and cornstarch. Why? The cornstarch lowers the gluten content of the dough. Unlike cookies, these crackers don’t contain a ton of butter, which coats the flour and prevents long strands of gluten from forming. Long gluten strands equal tough crackers — not a good thing. Adding a bit of cornstarch makes up for the low amount of butter, and it keeps the crackers crisp and light. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_91003\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/mixed-dough.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/12/mixed-dough.jpg\" alt=\"The cracker dough comes together in a matter of minutes.
