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.",

"content": "\u003cp>Salad for breakfast? It’s not as strange as it might sound. And while I’m a big fan of the occasional sweet breakfast (I love me some blueberry pancakes and crisp bacon from \u003ca href=\"http://www.stfrancisfountainsf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">St. Francis Fountain\u003c/a> in San Francisco!), I really love savory breakfasts. Besides, my husband—a Brit—doesn’t understand the “American obsession with dessert for breakfast” so we eat a LOT of eggs in our house.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of this, I’m always looking for creative ways to serve eggs for breakfast, beyond the usual fried over medium, soft-boiled, hard-boiled, poached, or softly scrambled. I’m inspired by innovative brunch offerings at some of my favorite cafes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More and more popular brunch spots are offering up savory, salad-y, egg-topped dishes for us early risers. On a recent trip to L.A. I discovered an amazing breakfast spot (adored by many LA brunchers): an adorable café called \u003ca href=\"http://sqirlla.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Sqirl\u003c/a>. At Sqirl, they serve up a crave-worthy, vinegar-laced crispy brown rice “salad” with runny egg, avocado, plenty of herbs, and salty sausage. There’s also a terrific breakfast-y salad at my beloved local breakfast bakery, \u003ca href=\"http://www.dellafattoria.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Della Fattoria\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This version is perfect for springtime (or Mother’s Day), with plenty of tender greens, earthy asparagus, and salty bacon. All topped with a soft-boiled runny egg. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When making boiled eggs, if you have an egg poker it works wonders for getting the peel cleanly off. Soft boiling eggs is a bit trickier, and every second matters, so pay close attention to the timing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_109142\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4.jpg\" alt=\"Mother's Day Breakfast Salad\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-109142\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mother's Day Breakfast Salad \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Breakfast Salad\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 4 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>4 slices thick-cut smoked bacon\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 lb asparagus, trimmed\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 large eggs (depending on how many you want)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 cups fresh baby salad greens\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cem>For the vinaigrette\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>3 tbsp olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp white wine or champagne vinegar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tbsp lemon juice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 tsp Dijon mustard\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>To make the vinaigrette, in a small jam jar with a screw-top lid, add the ingredients for the vinaigrette.

Gently lower the eggs into the water using the slotted spoon.

And while I’m a big fan of the occasional sweet breakfast (I love me some blueberry pancakes and crisp bacon from \u003ca href=\"http://www.stfrancisfountainsf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">St. Francis Fountain\u003c/a> in San Francisco!), I really love savory breakfasts. Besides, my husband—a Brit—doesn’t understand the “American obsession with dessert for breakfast” so we eat a LOT of eggs in our house.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of this, I’m always looking for creative ways to serve eggs for breakfast, beyond the usual fried over medium, soft-boiled, hard-boiled, poached, or softly scrambled. I’m inspired by innovative brunch offerings at some of my favorite cafes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More and more popular brunch spots are offering up savory, salad-y, egg-topped dishes for us early risers. On a recent trip to L.A. I discovered an amazing breakfast spot (adored by many LA brunchers): an adorable café called \u003ca href=\"http://sqirlla.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Sqirl\u003c/a>. At Sqirl, they serve up a crave-worthy, vinegar-laced crispy brown rice “salad” with runny egg, avocado, plenty of herbs, and salty sausage. There’s also a terrific breakfast-y salad at my beloved local breakfast bakery, \u003ca href=\"http://www.dellafattoria.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Della Fattoria\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This version is perfect for springtime (or Mother’s Day), with plenty of tender greens, earthy asparagus, and salty bacon. All topped with a soft-boiled runny egg. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When making boiled eggs, if you have an egg poker it works wonders for getting the peel cleanly off. Soft boiling eggs is a bit trickier, and every second matters, so pay close attention to the timing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_109142\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4.jpg\" alt=\"Mother's Day Breakfast Salad\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-109142\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/breakfast-salad-final4-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mother's Day Breakfast Salad \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Breakfast Salad\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 4 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>4 slices thick-cut smoked bacon\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 lb asparagus, trimmed\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 large eggs (depending on how many you want)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 cups fresh baby salad greens\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cem>For the vinaigrette\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>3 tbsp olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp white wine or champagne vinegar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tbsp lemon juice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 tsp Dijon mustard\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>To make the vinaigrette, in a small jam jar with a screw-top lid, add the ingredients for the vinaigrette.

Topped with creamy-dreamy ricotta flavored with orange zest and a mound of vanilla-scented sweet strawberries, it doesn’t get much more extravagant than this! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But truly, this over-the-top French toast couldn’t be easier. The ricotta and strawberry mixtures can be made a few hours in advance and take only minutes to whip up. And once you tuck into this gorgeous brunch, you know it will be well worth the effort. For full breakfast perfection, serve this with thick slices of crisp smoked bacon and flutes of mimosas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can use the same technique to make standard French toast. Just soak slices of challah or brioche (or your favorite whole wheat or white bread) in the egg mixture and fry as directed.

Topped with creamy-dreamy ricotta flavored with orange zest and a mound of vanilla-scented sweet strawberries, it doesn’t get much more extravagant than this! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But truly, this over-the-top French toast couldn’t be easier. The ricotta and strawberry mixtures can be made a few hours in advance and take only minutes to whip up. And once you tuck into this gorgeous brunch, you know it will be well worth the effort. For full breakfast perfection, serve this with thick slices of crisp smoked bacon and flutes of mimosas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can use the same technique to make standard French toast. Just soak slices of challah or brioche (or your favorite whole wheat or white bread) in the egg mixture and fry as directed. Serve with salted butter and pure maple syrup, and some fresh fruit if you like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_109094\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1.jpg\" alt=\"Mother’s Day Challah French Toast with Fresh Ricotta and Strawberries\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-109094\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/05/french-toast-final1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mother’s Day Challah French Toast with Fresh Ricotta and Strawberries \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Challah French Toast with Fresh Ricotta and Strawberries\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 4 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 cup fresh whole-milk ricotta cheese, such as \u003ca href=\"http://www.bellwetherfarms.com/freshcheese/\" target=\"_blank\">Bellwether\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>5 to 6 tbsp sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Finely grated zest of 1 small orange\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups hulled and sliced ripe, fresh strawberries (about 12 oz)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped out\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>6 large eggs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup whole milk\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 loaf challah bread, cut into 1-inch-thick slices (about 10 slices)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Unsalted butter, for frying\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>In a bowl, whisk together the ricotta, 2 to 3 tbsp sugar (depending on how sweet you might like it), and orange zest.

"content": "\u003cp>Wendy Goodfriend’s lovely mom Suzi has been making this brisket for longer than I can remember, and I’ve known her for well over twenty years. In fact, she’s been making it for so long, and serving it at her annual Passover dinners, that it’s become legendary amongst her friends and family. I was lucky enough to get her recipe years ago, a scribbled note on a well-used (splattered) recipe card, which contains brief instructions that can be interpreted in multiple ways.\u003cbr>\n[aside postID=\"bayareabites_94614,bayareabites_94355\"]\u003cbr>\nThis is my version of Suzi’s brisket, but with more detailed directions (and maybe a few embellishments of my own). I used a first cut brisket, which is what Suzi has always used. It’s the leaner cut of brisket, but as long as you leave a nice layer of fat on top (don’t trim it all away or the brisket won’t end up meltingly tender!) it turns out great. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brisket is seasoned simply with salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, then seared until brown on the stovetop. I throw plenty of onions in with the browned bits left in the pan to sop up all the flavor, and cook those until tender and golden before adding celery, plenty of garlic, and a bottle of beer. The secret ingredient though is the bottle of Heinz Chili Sauce that is spread over the top of the brisket. It adds a nice sweet and chili-spiced flavor to the tender, fall-apart slices of brisket.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After about 6 hours, I like to remove the brisket, get it all prepped and sliced, and then return it to the oven to finish cooking. That way, when it is fall-apart tender and ready to eat, you can take it directly from the oven to the table without any hassle. A great time-saver when you have a lot of guests around the table. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roast the carrots separately and then use them to garnish the brisket. If you like, you could also add a couple of finely diced carrots to the onions to sweeten the sauce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_108652\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above.jpg\" alt=\" Ma’s Passover Brisket\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-108652\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ma’s Passover Brisket \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Mom’s Passover Brisket\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 10 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>5–6 pound first cut (or center cut) beef brisket\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt, plus more as needed\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 large yellow onions, peeled, quartered, and thinly sliced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 stalks celery, finely diced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 large cloves garlic, minced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1-2 (12 fl oz) bottle amber beer or Guinness Stout for extra rich flavor (\u003cem>not kosher for Passover\u003c/em>)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 (12 oz) bottle Heinz Chili Sauce (\u003cem>not kosher for Passover\u003c/em>)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 large bunch small carrots, trimmed, scrubbed, and halved if large\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Handful fresh chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 325°F.

In fact, she’s been making it for so long, and serving it at her annual Passover dinners, that it’s become legendary amongst her friends and family. I was lucky enough to get her recipe years ago, a scribbled note on a well-used (splattered) recipe card, which contains brief instructions that can be interpreted in multiple ways.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I used a first cut brisket, which is what Suzi has always used. It’s the leaner cut of brisket, but as long as you leave a nice layer of fat on top (don’t trim it all away or the brisket won’t end up meltingly tender!) it turns out great. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brisket is seasoned simply with salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, then seared until brown on the stovetop. I throw plenty of onions in with the browned bits left in the pan to sop up all the flavor, and cook those until tender and golden before adding celery, plenty of garlic, and a bottle of beer. The secret ingredient though is the bottle of Heinz Chili Sauce that is spread over the top of the brisket. It adds a nice sweet and chili-spiced flavor to the tender, fall-apart slices of brisket.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After about 6 hours, I like to remove the brisket, get it all prepped and sliced, and then return it to the oven to finish cooking. That way, when it is fall-apart tender and ready to eat, you can take it directly from the oven to the table without any hassle. A great time-saver when you have a lot of guests around the table. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roast the carrots separately and then use them to garnish the brisket. If you like, you could also add a couple of finely diced carrots to the onions to sweeten the sauce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_108652\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above.jpg\" alt=\" Ma’s Passover Brisket\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-108652\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/04/brisket-finished-above-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ma’s Passover Brisket \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Mom’s Passover Brisket\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 10 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>5–6 pound first cut (or center cut) beef brisket\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt, plus more as needed\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 large yellow onions, peeled, quartered, and thinly sliced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 stalks celery, finely diced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 large cloves garlic, minced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1-2 (12 fl oz) bottle amber beer or Guinness Stout for extra rich flavor (\u003cem>not kosher for Passover\u003c/em>)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 (12 oz) bottle Heinz Chili Sauce (\u003cem>not kosher for Passover\u003c/em>)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 large bunch small carrots, trimmed, scrubbed, and halved if large\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Handful fresh chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 325°F.

I know I said that some of them were quite good — and they still are. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here’s the thing: it is far, far cheaper to make bone broth at home. Most of the store bought bone broths in my tasting were priced above $10 per quart. Homemade bone broth? That’ll cost you roughly the same amount of money for four to six quarts. And that’s if you start with all brand-new bones. If you start a collection of leftover bones in your freezer, you can cut that cost down even more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making broth at home doesn’t just save you money, either. It also allows you to control the flavor and consistency of your broth. I, for one, don’t like drinking straight beef broth. Instead, I prefer a mix of beef and chicken bones for a less meaty flavor. Like super beefy broth? Forget my preferences and make it with 100% cow bones. I like to also add some onion and carrot for background sweetness and depth, but you don’t have to. Keep it simple with just bones and water, and see how you like the result. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I make bone broth, I think of it as meat stock. (It is, in fact, just a meat stock rebranded as a trendy, expensive drink. But I’m not going to rant on that today. You can read it again here.) \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_108099\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot.jpg\" alt=\"Carrots and onions add a touch of sweetness and complexity to the bone broth.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-108099\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/carrots-and-onion-in-pot-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carrots and onions add a touch of sweetness and complexity to the bone broth. \u003ccite>(Kate Williams)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To begin, I gently sweat diced onions and carrots in a little bit of oil, just until they’re softened and sweet.

You can also use bones like oxtail or marrow (preferably with some meat still attached). Make sure they’re cut into somewhat smallish pieces to expose any marrow inside the bones.

If you start with roasted bones, there’ll still be some fat but not nearly as much. I’d recommend skimming as much of it off as possible before proceeding. You can save the fat later to use as a cap on top of the broth if you’d like (it’ll keep it fresher longer), or just toss it. Be judicious, though — while a little bit of fat can be nice, greasy broth is pretty gross.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, I like to reduce the broth a little further before storing it. This step will concentrate the gelatin, collagen and any other minerals in the broth. It also, obviously, reduces the final volume of the broth, making it easier to store. But if you’re happy with how the broth tastes now, you can skip this step.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bring the pot of strained broth to a rapid simmer and let it reduce for about an hour. It should reduce by about one-third in volume, leaving you with about four quarts broth. Remove the broth from the heat. If you’re going to be drinking the broth, you’ll likely want to season it now. Add salt to taste. If you’re using the broth for cooking, you may want to skip the salt for now or keep the levels low. It’s much easier, after all, to add more salt as you’re cooking than to correct for over-seasoning. Let the broth cool to room temperature after seasoning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_108106\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing.jpg\" alt=\"Reducing the strained broth further concentrates flavor and nutritional goodies.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-108106\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/reducing-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Reducing the strained broth further concentrates flavor and nutritional goodies. \u003ccite>(Kate Williams)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Depending on the speed with which you go through broth, you’ll likely want to freeze some or all of your broth.

I know I said that some of them were quite good — and they still are. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here’s the thing: it is far, far cheaper to make bone broth at home. Most of the store bought bone broths in my tasting were priced above $10 per quart. Homemade bone broth? That’ll cost you roughly the same amount of money for four to six quarts. And that’s if you start with all brand-new bones. If you start a collection of leftover bones in your freezer, you can cut that cost down even more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making broth at home doesn’t just save you money, either. It also allows you to control the flavor and consistency of your broth. I, for one, don’t like drinking straight beef broth. Instead, I prefer a mix of beef and chicken bones for a less meaty flavor. Like super beefy broth? Forget my preferences and make it with 100% cow bones. I like to also add some onion and carrot for background sweetness and depth, but you don’t have to. Keep it simple with just bones and water, and see how you like the result. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I make bone broth, I think of it as meat stock. (It is, in fact, just a meat stock rebranded as a trendy, expensive drink. But I’m not going to rant on that today.

If you start with roasted bones, there’ll still be some fat but not nearly as much. I’d recommend skimming as much of it off as possible before proceeding. You can save the fat later to use as a cap on top of the broth if you’d like (it’ll keep it fresher longer), or just toss it. Be judicious, though — while a little bit of fat can be nice, greasy broth is pretty gross.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, I like to reduce the broth a little further before storing it.

It should reduce by about one-third in volume, leaving you with about four quarts broth. Remove the broth from the heat. If you’re going to be drinking the broth, you’ll likely want to season it now. Add salt to taste. If you’re using the broth for cooking, you may want to skip the salt for now or keep the levels low. It’s much easier, after all, to add more salt as you’re cooking than to correct for over-seasoning.

I also grabbed a couple of strawberry plants at the request of my daughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While dreaming of our crops to come, I figured I should bake something with these compatico ingredients. And since Easter is just a bunny hop, a jump, and a skip away...why not something that would be an awesome addition to Easter brunch! (Or really any brunchtime gathering, especially in the springtime.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Put streusel on a cake and you’ll find the crowds will gather, mouths watering. To a tender, zest-laden vanilla cake, I added a healthy layer of lightly sweetened strawberries and a nice thick buttery streusel topping. (Streusel, for those who are uninitiated, is a crumbly topping made from sugar, flour, butter, and sometimes a bit of spice or some nuts, similar to what you find on top of a crumble.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This coffeecake turned out so well that I had to force myself to stop eating it.

I love their bread, I love their pastries, but I especially love their savory brunch and lunch items. Anytime I have guests come visit, we head there for the always-popular brunch, and I almost always get their fabulous “Eggs Bennie” with spinach.\u003cbr>\n[aside postID=\"bayareabites_107926,bayareabites_94456\"]\u003cbr>\nThis is my take on their gorgeous dish – complete with thick slices of crunchy country-style toast, excellent-quality ham, and a lemony hollandaise. I use their Meyer lemon-rosemary bread for the base, but you can use any great bread that you love: levain, sourdough, etc. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To cut down on the time this takes, I also worked in some time-saving steps. Hollandaise doesn’t have to be a chore over the stovetop when you can make it in a snap in a blender. And instead of poaching the eggs, I just fry mine, which takes less time and effort. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To make this a great dish for entertaining, such as a celebratory Easter brunch, I chose to add roasted fresh asparagus. Not only do I simply adore asparagus, but it also happens to go exceedingly well with lemon, hollandaise, and eggs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This makes 4 to 8 servings, depending on how hungry you are.

I use their Meyer lemon-rosemary bread for the base, but you can use any great bread that you love: levain, sourdough, etc. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To cut down on the time this takes, I also worked in some time-saving steps. Hollandaise doesn’t have to be a chore over the stovetop when you can make it in a snap in a blender.

Every springtime, we would dutifully mix the spiced dough with plenty of raisins and candied orange peel, then divide the fragrant dough, roll them into balls and bake them once they were perfectly puffy. Once cooled, we would pipe sweet icing in the shape of a cross over the top. Traditionally the crosses are made with a flour paste piped on before baking. But I’m just not crazy about that and frankly, I like the sticky sweet icing. Plus that’s how we always made them at La Farine.\u003cbr>\n[aside postID=\"bayareabites_94456,bayareabites_80502\"]\u003cbr>\nThese are not difficult to make, but they are a yeasted dough, so you’ll need to plan on them taking a few hours to rise. Remember that rising times are affected by the temperature of the room, so on a hot day, these might rise more quickly than on a cold day. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Using a stand mixer makes quick work of this dough, but you can also make it by hand in a regular bowl with a wooden spoon to mix. Once the dough comes together, just dump it on a work surface and knead it for about 10 minutes. It’s a great upper-body workout too!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of how you make them, they will fill your house with the sweet fragrance of spices and orange zest. If you like, use raisins instead of dried currants. Or add 1/2 cup chopped candied orange peel (in addition to or instead of the orange zest). \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_107969\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/hotcrossbuns-icing.jpg\" alt=\"Traditionally the crosses are made with a flour paste piped on before baking.

Every springtime, we would dutifully mix the spiced dough with plenty of raisins and candied orange peel, then divide the fragrant dough, roll them into balls and bake them once they were perfectly puffy. Once cooled, we would pipe sweet icing in the shape of a cross over the top. Traditionally the crosses are made with a flour paste piped on before baking. But I’m just not crazy about that and frankly, I like the sticky sweet icing. Plus that’s how we always made them at La Farine.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Want to mark this St. Patrick's Day with something beyond the usual corned beef and cabbage (which \u003ca href=\"http://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/is-corned-beef-really-irish-2839144/?no-ist\" target=\"_blank\">aren't so traditionally\u003c/a> Irish anyway)? Why not mix up your menu with a tasty tray of blaas?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not blaa as in boring – blaa is actually the name of a treasured bread from the town of Waterford, Ireland, where up to 12,000 fresh blaas are eaten daily. This soft, doughy white roll – with either a soft or crusty top — has a chewy texture that makes it a perfect vehicle for butter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Be assured, the blaa isn't any old bread: The European Union considered it special enough to award it \"\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographical_indications_and_traditional_specialities_in_the_European_Union#Protected_geographical_indication_.28PGI.29\" target=\"_blank\">Protected Geographical Indication\u003c/a>\" status in 2013. That means only rolls baked in Waterford can bear the name \"blaa\" – in the same way that only bubbly from Champagne can bear that region's name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This delicacy is a bit of an endangered species. Only four bakeries in Waterford produce the official blaa: Walsh's, Kilmacow Bakery, Barron's, and \u003ca href=\"http://hickeysbakery.ie\" target=\"_blank\">Hickey's\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Each of the four bakeries make blaas in a slightly different way,\" explains third-generation baker Brian Hickey, whose family bakery has been selling blaas for more than 50 years. \u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And each bakery commands fierce allegiance. Hickey says Waterford residents \"rarely drift from one bakery to another - a bit like following football teams. You could get into a row with your neighbor over who makes a better blaa!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The blaa has been delighting the denizens of Waterford for centuries. According to folklore, the blaa dates back to the 17\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> century, when the Huguenots landed in Ireland. These French Protestants were fleeing religious persecution and sought refuge in Ireland and other European countries. It's believed a Huguenot baker baked the first blaa to use leftover dough, or \u003cem>blaad. \u003c/em>(Other stories have blaa deriving from the French \u003cem>blanc\u003c/em>, for white.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_107730\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 700px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/sausage-blaa.jpg\" alt=\"Fillings like this sausage are typically added after the blaa is taken out of the oven — as soon as possible!\" width=\"700\" height=\"465\" class=\"size-full wp-image-107730\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/sausage-blaa.jpg 700w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/sausage-blaa-400x266.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fillings like this sausage are typically added after the blaa is taken out of the oven — as soon as possible! \u003ccite>(Elizabeth Rushe for NPR )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What distinguishes the blaa from your average roll is an abundant use of flour throughout the the baking process. After the first and second rise, the dough is turned out onto a flour surface. Personally, I flour the dough generously in order to easily handle it while shaping the 24 blaa dough buns. The blaas receive another sifting of flour when they are left to rise in their bun shapes, and floured once more before hitting the oven. The plentiful flouring at each of these stages gives the blaa a distinctive floury finish - and also serves as a protection during baking. Fillings are typically added after the blaa is taken out of the oven - as soon as possible!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The good news for the clumsy baker is that blaas are not typically uniform in shape and size. While the recipe for the blaa is quite simple, the key ingredient is patience: Blaa dough is left to rise for a total of up to four and a half hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Is it really blaa if you eat it outside of Waterford? That's a crumb of contention. Some of the Waterford bakeries distribute their frozen blaas internationally, but Hickey's bakery will only sell to local stores. Because there are no preservatives added to the blaa, it's ideally eaten on the day its baked. Martin O'Dwyer, a consultant chef who previously ran a restaurant in Waterford, and now runs a \u003ca href=\"http://www.lepresbytere.net/\" target=\"_blank\">B&B\u003c/a> in France, remembers the reverence with which his former coworkers in Waterford approached the morning blaa break at half-past ten.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A trusted member of staff would be sent to the bakery for the blaas — not a moment sooner, or they might be given blaas from the first baking rather than the second bake,\" O'Dwyer says. \"These, after two hours were deemed 'stale.'\u003cstrong> \"\u003c/strong>Then there would be the various personal preferences: Well done, soft, floury or \"not too brown,\" he recalls. \"They were eaten then mainly just with lots of salted Irish butter.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biddy White Lennon, a founding member of the Irish Food Writers guild and former judge on the reality cooking television show \u003cem>The Great Irish Bake Off\u003c/em>, included the blaa in her \u003cem>Best of Irish Baking\u003c/em> book.

Why not mix up your menu with a tasty tray of blaas?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not blaa as in boring – blaa is actually the name of a treasured bread from the town of Waterford, Ireland, where up to 12,000 fresh blaas are eaten daily. This soft, doughy white roll – with either a soft or crusty top — has a chewy texture that makes it a perfect vehicle for butter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Be assured, the blaa isn't any old bread: The European Union considered it special enough to award it \"\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographical_indications_and_traditional_specialities_in_the_European_Union#Protected_geographical_indication_.28PGI.29\" target=\"_blank\">Protected Geographical Indication\u003c/a>\" status in 2013. That means only rolls baked in Waterford can bear the name \"blaa\" – in the same way that only bubbly from Champagne can bear that region's name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This delicacy is a bit of an endangered species. Only four bakeries in Waterford produce the official blaa: Walsh's, Kilmacow Bakery, Barron's, and \u003ca href=\"http://hickeysbakery.ie\" target=\"_blank\">Hickey's\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Each of the four bakeries make blaas in a slightly different way,\" explains third-generation baker Brian Hickey, whose family bakery has been selling blaas for more than 50 years. \u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

You could get into a row with your neighbor over who makes a better blaa!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The blaa has been delighting the denizens of Waterford for centuries. According to folklore, the blaa dates back to the 17\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> century, when the Huguenots landed in Ireland. These French Protestants were fleeing religious persecution and sought refuge in Ireland and other European countries. It's believed a Huguenot baker baked the first blaa to use leftover dough, or \u003cem>blaad. \u003c/em>(Other stories have blaa deriving from the French \u003cem>blanc\u003c/em>, for white.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_107730\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 700px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/sausage-blaa.jpg\" alt=\"Fillings like this sausage are typically added after the blaa is taken out of the oven — as soon as possible!\" width=\"700\" height=\"465\" class=\"size-full wp-image-107730\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/sausage-blaa.jpg 700w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/03/sausage-blaa-400x266.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fillings like this sausage are typically added after the blaa is taken out of the oven — as soon as possible! \u003ccite>(Elizabeth Rushe for NPR )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What distinguishes the blaa from your average roll is an abundant use of flour throughout the the baking process. After the first and second rise, the dough is turned out onto a flour surface. Personally, I flour the dough generously in order to easily handle it while shaping the 24 blaa dough buns. The blaas receive another sifting of flour when they are left to rise in their bun shapes, and floured once more before hitting the oven. The plentiful flouring at each of these stages gives the blaa a distinctive floury finish - and also serves as a protection during baking. Fillings are typically added after the blaa is taken out of the oven - as soon as possible!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The good news for the clumsy baker is that blaas are not typically uniform in shape and size. While the recipe for the blaa is quite simple, the key ingredient is patience: Blaa dough is left to rise for a total of up to four and a half hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Is it really blaa if you eat it outside of Waterford? That's a crumb of contention. Some of the Waterford bakeries distribute their frozen blaas internationally, but Hickey's bakery will only sell to local stores. Because there are no preservatives added to the blaa, it's ideally eaten on the day its baked. Martin O'Dwyer, a consultant chef who previously ran a restaurant in Waterford, and now runs a \u003ca href=\"http://www.lepresbytere.net/\" target=\"_blank\">B&B\u003c/a> in France, remembers the reverence with which his former coworkers in Waterford approached the morning blaa break at half-past ten.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A trusted member of staff would be sent to the bakery for the blaas — not a moment sooner, or they might be given blaas from the first baking rather than the second bake,\" O'Dwyer says. \"These, after two hours were deemed 'stale.'\u003cstrong> \"\u003c/strong>Then there would be the various personal preferences: Well done, soft, floury or \"not too brown,\" he recalls. \"They were eaten then mainly just with lots of salted Irish butter.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biddy White Lennon, a founding member of the Irish Food Writers guild and former judge on the reality cooking television show \u003cem>The Great Irish Bake Off\u003c/em>, included the blaa in her \u003cem>Best of Irish Baking\u003c/em> book.

I can tell I won’t be able to go back to sleep because my wakeful mind is already playing my “to do list,” “what ifs…” and “why didn’t I” stories on repeat. I roll out of bed and head past the darkened pre-dawn window to my kitchen. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From the refrigerator I pull out some carrots, cauliflower, zucchini and kale. From my drawer, I grab a few yams, ginger, garlic and an onion. With my favorite knife in hand, I start chopping the colorful medley of vegetables. As I rhythmically use the blade to transform the yams from whole beings into medium diced cubes, my tangled mind starts to relax. Cutting vegetables is one form of meditation that I practice. The focus, precision and repetition gives my mind the structure it needs to ground into the present moment.

As a longtime vegetable lover, I naturally wanted to make dishes that were rich in these earthly goods. When I began delving into cookbooks, I felt overwhelmed with the strange words that described what I was supposed to do to vegetables. I would call my mother and ask, “Mom, what does chiffonade mean?” After a handful of phone calls and Google searches, I felt more veggie-chopping literate. Fast forward six years: as a food writer and illustrator, food plays a major role in my life.

Now place one hand at the handle of your knife and the other at the top of the blunt edge of the blade. Continue to chop your ingredient smaller and smaller by using the tip of the blade as a pivot point and move the knife from side to side. Repeatedly gather the vegetable together in the middle of your cutting board to allow for consistent minces.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>My impatient college sophomore self wondered “Why do recipes instruct me to chop vegetables in a range of specific forms? Can’t I just chop them any old way?” Experience has taught me the benefit of chopping vegetables to a uniform size promotes an even and reliable cooking time, especially for soups, stews and stir-fries. Though chopping vegetables in a precise manner creates more waste, the odds and ends are perfect for soup stock. I always keep a bag in the freezer with veggie scraps. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a cook and an artist, aesthetics are important to me. Cutting vegetables in intentional ways visually enhances the appearance of a dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And ultimately, chopping vegetables mindfully brings meditation into the kitchen. Yes, these ways of cutting may be more time-intensive, however, I see it as time to untangle my mind and focus on the moment. And who knows, maybe my time spent dicing carrots is actually bringing me closer to enlightenment. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1.jpg\" alt=\"Vegetable awakening under the Bodhi Tree\" width=\"1738\" height=\"1518\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-107208\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1.jpg 1738w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1-400x349.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1-800x699.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1-768x671.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1-1440x1258.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1-1180x1031.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/bodhitree_edited-1-960x838.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1738px) 100vw, 1738px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Recipe for Sleepless Soup\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Adapted from a recipe by my lovely friend, Sarah Kagan\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>2 Tablespoons olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 onion, medium dice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>5 cloves of garlic, minced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 inch fresh ginger, peeled and minced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4- 1/2 head cauliflower chopped in florets\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 sweet potatoes, medium dice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 zucchini in roulettes\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 carrots in roulettes\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 bunch kale chiffonade\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 cups veggie broth\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 Tablespoons cumin\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 Tablespoons turmeric\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 Tablespoon curry powder\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 Tablespoon cinnamon\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>salt to taste\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>In a large soup pot, sauté the onions in olive oil on medium heat until translucent (about 4-5 min).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Add ginger and garlic and cook for another minute or so.

I can tell I won’t be able to go back to sleep because my wakeful mind is already playing my “to do list,” “what ifs…” and “why didn’t I” stories on repeat. I roll out of bed and head past the darkened pre-dawn window to my kitchen. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From the refrigerator I pull out some carrots, cauliflower, zucchini and kale. From my drawer, I grab a few yams, ginger, garlic and an onion. With my favorite knife in hand, I start chopping the colorful medley of vegetables. As I rhythmically use the blade to transform the yams from whole beings into medium diced cubes, my tangled mind starts to relax. Cutting vegetables is one form of meditation that I practice. The focus, precision and repetition gives my mind the structure it needs to ground into the present moment. The slight element of danger wielding a sharp tool prevents me from getting sucked back into the looping stories that disturbed my sleep. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_107218\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 985px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/untanglemind_edited-1.jpg\" alt=\"Untangled Mind\" width=\"985\" height=\"1288\" class=\"size-full wp-image-107218\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/untanglemind_edited-1.jpg 985w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/untanglemind_edited-1-400x523.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/untanglemind_edited-1-800x1046.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/untanglemind_edited-1-768x1004.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/untanglemind_edited-1-960x1255.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 985px) 100vw, 985px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Untangled Mind \u003ccite>(Lila Volkas)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>I allow my chopping mediation to unfold until all of the vegetables are perfectly cubed and nestled in bowls and containers along my countertop.

I take a deep breath as the sky starts to glow with the morning’s light. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_107215\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 882px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/souppot_edited-1.jpg\" alt=\"Sleepless Soup\" width=\"882\" height=\"1000\" class=\"size-full wp-image-107215\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/souppot_edited-1.jpg 882w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/souppot_edited-1-400x454.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/souppot_edited-1-800x907.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/souppot_edited-1-768x871.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 882px) 100vw, 882px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sleepless Soup \u003ccite>(Lila Volkas)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t until I left home after high school and moved to Vancouver to go to college, that I really started cooking. As a longtime vegetable lover, I naturally wanted to make dishes that were rich in these earthly goods. When I began delving into cookbooks, I felt overwhelmed with the strange words that described what I was supposed to do to vegetables. I would call my mother and ask, “Mom, what does chiffonade mean?” After a handful of phone calls and Google searches, I felt more veggie-chopping literate. Fast forward six years: as a food writer and illustrator, food plays a major role in my life. I thought there might be other folks who’d like an introduction or a little refresher to the many ways you can cut up vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Continue to chop your ingredient smaller and smaller by using the tip of the blade as a pivot point and move the knife from side to side.

Can’t I just chop them any old way?” Experience has taught me the benefit of chopping vegetables to a uniform size promotes an even and reliable cooking time, especially for soups, stews and stir-fries. Though chopping vegetables in a precise manner creates more waste, the odds and ends are perfect for soup stock. I always keep a bag in the freezer with veggie scraps. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a cook and an artist, aesthetics are important to me.

"content": "\u003cp>Let’s get this out of the way first. Making ramen at home takes a long time. It requires several pots and many hours of standing around near the stove. You’ll need to go out and buy some somewhat hard-to-find ingredients. It’s not a last-minute project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it is totally, totally worth it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only can you control every step in the process, but you can also make a better product than you can get at the majority of so-so ramen-yas around town. You can enjoy it from the comfort of your own dining room table — no lines, no wait, no loud, crowded room. Plus, there’s really nothing better to eat while continuing to brave El Niño rains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So get shopping and plan a cooking schedule. It’s possible to make this recipe over the course of a weekend: Make the broth, pork, and eggs on the first day, and then prepare the \u003cstrong>menma\u003c/strong> (bamboo shoots, \u003cem>tare\u003c/em> seasoning mixture), noodles, and toppings the second day. However, you can also spread the recipe up over three days, four days, or even a week to fit it into your schedule. The most important thing to remember is that ramen needs to be served piping hot, and the noodles shouldn’t sit in the broth for more than 30 seconds before serving. Just like making a stir-fry, get all of your supplies ready before gathering your guests for dinner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first component you’ll want to make is the ramen broth. I like to make a multipurpose clear broth made from both pork and chicken. (Creamy tonkotsu broth is also possible to make at home, but it is more involved.)

It requires several pots and many hours of standing around near the stove. You’ll need to go out and buy some somewhat hard-to-find ingredients. It’s not a last-minute project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it is totally, totally worth it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only can you control every step in the process, but you can also make a better product than you can get at the majority of so-so ramen-yas around town. You can enjoy it from the comfort of your own dining room table — no lines, no wait, no loud, crowded room. Plus, there’s really nothing better to eat while continuing to brave El Niño rains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So get shopping and plan a cooking schedule. It’s possible to make this recipe over the course of a weekend: Make the broth, pork, and eggs on the first day, and then prepare the \u003cstrong>menma\u003c/strong> (bamboo shoots, \u003cem>tare\u003c/em> seasoning mixture), noodles, and toppings the second day. However, you can also spread the recipe up over three days, four days, or even a week to fit it into your schedule. The most important thing to remember is that ramen needs to be served piping hot, and the noodles shouldn’t sit in the broth for more than 30 seconds before serving. Just like making a stir-fry, get all of your supplies ready before gathering your guests for dinner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first component you’ll want to make is the ramen broth. I like to make a multipurpose clear broth made from both pork and chicken. (Creamy tonkotsu broth is also possible to make at home, but it is more involved.) I personalize the broth later by adding \u003cem>tare\u003c/em>, which is essentially ramen seasoning. Below, you’ll see directions for making \u003cstrong>shio\u003c/strong> (salt), \u003cstrong>shoyu\u003c/strong> (soy sauce), and \u003cstrong>miso\u003c/strong> tares.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_106535\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients.jpg\" alt=\"I make my ramen broth with chicken wings and pork ribs, plus aromatics.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-106535\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/ramen-broth-ingredients-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">I make my ramen broth with chicken wings and pork ribs, plus aromatics. \u003ccite>(Kate Williams)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>I use high-cartilage chicken wings and meaty pork ribs for the base, and add aromatics like shallots, garlic, and ginger.

I take a slight shortcut. After the meat broth has simmered for 5 hours, I “dashi” it to add even more umami and a whiff of oceanic brininess. First, I add a big sheet of kombu seaweed, which you can find at Asian markets and Berkeley Bowl.

Choose your favorite; you’ll flavor the broth with one of these \u003cem>tares\u003c/em> right before serving. If you want to make a vegetable ramen, consider mixing the shoyu tare with a full-flavored vegetable broth to taste. Skip the chashu for this variation, and marinate the eggs in the shoyu tare. I prefer using \u003ca href=\"http://sunnoodle.com\" target=\"_blank\">Sun Noodle\u003c/a> brand noodles for my ramen. They make different styles of noodles for shoyu ramen and miso ramen. If you’re making shio ramen, I’d recommend the shoyu style. Discard the seasoning packets.

But I don’t like the sappy pink-and-red cards, boxes of not-very-good and overly sweet chocolates, and I can’t say I’m a fan of roses (peonies or poppies or dahlias, yes).

But I don’t like the sappy pink-and-red cards, boxes of not-very-good and overly sweet chocolates, and I can’t say I’m a fan of roses (peonies or poppies or dahlias, yes). I never attempt to get a reservation to eat out...too many sugar-coated menus, and besides, getting a babysitter is next to impossible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s not that I’m not a romantic, but these days I prefer something more subtle. Dinner at home, maybe that my hubs made for me (!), a bottle of lovely sparkling wine, and a little something sweet. I’m happy to spend the day with my family, doing something fun like wandering along the coast, hanging out in the garden, or even just baking some sweet, heart-shaped cookies with my daughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We had a great time making these red velvet riffs. You can make them as big or small as you like, depending on the size of your heart-shaped cookie cutter. We slathered ours with ethereal cream cheese frosting and topped them off with red sparkle sugar, but you can leave the frosting off and simply dredge them in sparkle sugar before baking (I’d suggest white or red). Or get fancy and sandwich two together with cream cheese frosting in the middle (be sure to sandwich the bottoms together).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Make sure you chill the dough, to give it a chance to rest and to make it easier to roll out. The easiest way to roll it out is on a floured surface; just be sure to keep dusting it with flour so it doesn’t stick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_106886\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-106886\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles.jpg\" alt=\"Red Velvet Sugar Cookie Hearts with Cream Cheese Frosting\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/vd-cookies-sprinkles-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Red Velvet Sugar Cookie Hearts with Cream Cheese Frosting \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Recipe: Red Velvet Sugar Cookie Hearts with Cream Cheese Frosting\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 2 dozen cookies\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Growing up, my brother and I always looked forward to Eggroll Night. We’d help our mom make the filling, which included pressure cooking an entire chicken and then pulling all the meat off. She’d lay out all the eggroll wrappers, and we’d do our best to roll them up, stuffing them as full as we could without tearing the wrapper. They were always served with a combination of Dijon mustard and sweet & sour sauce. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is nothing authentic about these, they are not Chinese or Vietnamese or Thai. They are simply my mom’s American version of eggrolls. And I adore them (and so does my entire family). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t even know where my mom first got a recipe for these or how they came to be. And I’m not sure she would even remember. I just know that for 40+ (ahem) years, I have loved these fried rolls of deliciousness. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nowadays, I prefer using chicken thighs, but you can also use shredded chicken breast, or even a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken (you will need 2 cups).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leave the almonds out if you are serving anyone with a nut allergy (like my husband; although I really love the almonds added). And feel free to add other veggies if you like, such as shredded carrot, but this version is my personal fave. And don’t skimp on the Dijon and sweet & sour!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_106734\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1.jpg\" alt=\"Mom’s Chicken and Veggie Eggrolls\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-106734\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mom’s Chicken and Veggie Eggrolls \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Mom’s Chicken and Veggie Eggrolls\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 20 eggrolls; serves 8 to 10\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs (2 cups cooked, shredded chicken)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 packed cups shredded green cabbage, (about 1/2 head)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 oz cremini mushrooms, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>5 green onions, thinly sliced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup finely chopped water chestnuts*\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari, plus more to taste\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/3 cup slivered almonds, lightly toasted\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>20 egg roll wrappers (1 package, 1 lb)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Canola or peanut oil for frying\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cem>For serving:\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Sweet and sour sauce\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Dijon mustard\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>* Note:\u003c/strong> I usually buy a can of whole water chestnuts, drain them, and chop them; it’s about 2/3 can.

We’d help our mom make the filling, which included pressure cooking an entire chicken and then pulling all the meat off. She’d lay out all the eggroll wrappers, and we’d do our best to roll them up, stuffing them as full as we could without tearing the wrapper. They were always served with a combination of Dijon mustard and sweet & sour sauce. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is nothing authentic about these, they are not Chinese or Vietnamese or Thai. They are simply my mom’s American version of eggrolls. And I adore them (and so does my entire family). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t even know where my mom first got a recipe for these or how they came to be. And I’m not sure she would even remember. I just know that for 40+ (ahem) years, I have loved these fried rolls of deliciousness. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nowadays, I prefer using chicken thighs, but you can also use shredded chicken breast, or even a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken (you will need 2 cups).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leave the almonds out if you are serving anyone with a nut allergy (like my husband; although I really love the almonds added). And feel free to add other veggies if you like, such as shredded carrot, but this version is my personal fave. And don’t skimp on the Dijon and sweet & sour!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_106734\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1.jpg\" alt=\"Mom’s Chicken and Veggie Eggrolls\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-106734\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/02/eggrolls-finish1-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mom’s Chicken and Veggie Eggrolls \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Mom’s Chicken and Veggie Eggrolls\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 20 eggrolls; serves 8 to 10\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs (2 cups cooked, shredded chicken)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 packed cups shredded green cabbage, (about 1/2 head)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 oz cremini mushrooms, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>5 green onions, thinly sliced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup finely chopped water chestnuts*\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari, plus more to taste\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/3 cup slivered almonds, lightly toasted\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>20 egg roll wrappers (1 package, 1 lb)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Canola or peanut oil for frying\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cem>For serving:\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Sweet and sour sauce\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Dijon mustard\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>* Note:\u003c/strong> I usually buy a can of whole water chestnuts, drain them, and chop them; it’s about 2/3 can.
