"bio": "I am a writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.",

"bio": "I am a veteran newspaper reporter who has transcended to the life of a kitchen slave. In April, I took a leave from The Sacramento Bee, where I work as a columnist and editorial writer, to intern at Oliveto, an Italian restaurant in Oakland. Until at least September, I will be working five days a week at the restaurant, learning basic culinary skills and helping Oliveto prepare its nightly dishes. What will happen at the end of my sabbatical? Who knows? At the very least, I'll be a far better chef than when I started. I've been a dedicated home cook for more than 20 years, largely because of the inspiration of my wife, Micaela Massimino. Mickie and I have been fortunate enough to travel extensively in Italy, France, the Deep South, New Mexico, Vietnam and Japan, and we enjoy cooking food from all of those places. I also have some experience in writing about food -- particularly the environmental consequences of food production. In the 1990s, I covered the rise of industrial hog farming in North Carolina, while working at the Raleigh News & Observer. Since moving back to California in 1999 and joining The Bee, I've specialized in coverage of water issues and threats to the state's fisheries. When I am not cooking, eating or writing, I like to take long rides on my various bicycles, which helps build an appetite for more cooking, eating and writing.",

Turn off the heat and lift your fish, browned side down, onto the broiler pan. Broil about 8 to 10 inches from the heat for about 8 to 10 minutes, until just cooked through.

Sights, sounds, smells, words. You name it. You might not think about them on a daily basis, but they are filed away, ready to jump you at the strangest of times. Things like the scent of glue sticks or the melody of some Bangles song playing in the background the night your first boyfriend broke up with you. You think you've buried them, but they keep rising up and biting you on the ass like directionally-impaired zombies who hunger for your brain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My personal undead companion of the summer has been a small chunk of lines from T.S. Eliot's \u003ca href=\"http://www.bartleby.com/198/1.html\">\"The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.\"\u003c/a> which I learned in high school and, evidently, never quite unlearned. I think of them every time I encounter a peach, which is often, given the season:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I grow old... I grow old...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>When I first heard the poem as read to me by a wonderfully hammy, Scottish-brogued English instructor, I didn't take away any sense of Prufrock's failure, isolation, or tortured psyche. No, all I took away at the time was:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What's with the peach? Why can't an old guy eat a damned peach? It's a soft fruit for God's sake. He could probably gum the thing to death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then I went back to reading Sylvia Plath because I was so sensitive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, like Mr. Prufrock, I grow old, though I doubt very much that I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled, since I can usually be found in shorts. I am, however, much older than I ever thought I would be. And I happen to like that just fine. It's just that half of the men on my mother's side of the family never made it past their 30's. In a few days, barring accidents, I will have reached 40-- mid-life or, if put into seasonal terms, Midsummer. Not old, but, as I see it, just about right. To borrow from another literary source, I may be, like Miss Jean Brodie minus her attraction to Fascism, in my prime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think it more than just coincidence then that Midsummer is when peaches are in \u003cem>their\u003c/em> prime. Fully ripened, barely hanging onto the tree, easily bruised, and fuzz to be found in nearly every nook and cranny. God, I'm like a peach in more ways than I had previously imagined. No wonder that bits of a monologue-style poem I learned about an older guy briefly wondering about fruit has come to back haunt me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so I leave you with a simple recipe that will help keep me and my fellow peaches in good, supple form for just a little longer than the typical season allows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, and Mr. Prufrock? Go ahead, eat me. You know you want to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/brandied-peaches.jpg\" alt=\"brandied peaches\" title=\"brandied peaches\" width=\"261\" height=\"350\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5430\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Brandied Peaches\u003c/strong> (adapted from the Linton Hopkins recipe at Food & Wine)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What better way to preserve the beauty of a just-ripe peach than with the help of a little alcohol?

Free stones. Really, cling stones are a real pain in the ass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 ½ cups water\u003cbr>\n2 cups sugar\u003cbr>\n2 cups brandy\u003cbr>\n1 cinnamon stick\u003cbr>\n1 teaspoon of cardamom\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then reduce to simmering. Cut a small \"x\" on the bottom of peaches with a sharp knife and gently lower them into the water. Leave the peaches in the water until their skins loosen and their screaming stops. Remove with a slotted spoon and let cool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In a large saucepan, combine sugar, water, cinnamon, and cardamom over high heat, stirring occasionally to ensure that the sugar is dissolved. Simmer for about five minutes, until a lovely syrup is formed. And I do mean lovely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Excorticate peaches when they are cool enough to handle. Cut in half, remove pits (or stones, if you are English or Canadian), then transfer them to a hot, 2-quart canning jar or 2 1-quart canning jars, equally hot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Add brandy to the syrup and bring to a boil. Ladle the hot syrup over the peaches and close the jar(s) tightly. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least one week before serving. The pickled peaches can be stored in your refrigerator for up to three months. As if they would really last that long.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Sights, sounds, smells, words. You name it. You might not think about them on a daily basis, but they are filed away, ready to jump you at the strangest of times. Things like the scent of glue sticks or the melody of some Bangles song playing in the background the night your first boyfriend broke up with you. You think you've buried them, but they keep rising up and biting you on the ass like directionally-impaired zombies who hunger for your brain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My personal undead companion of the summer has been a small chunk of lines from T.S. Eliot's \u003ca href=\"http://www.bartleby.com/198/1.html\">\"The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.\"\u003c/a> which I learned in high school and, evidently, never quite unlearned. I think of them every time I encounter a peach, which is often, given the season:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I grow old... I grow old...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>When I first heard the poem as read to me by a wonderfully hammy, Scottish-brogued English instructor, I didn't take away any sense of Prufrock's failure, isolation, or tortured psyche. No, all I took away at the time was:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What's with the peach? Why can't an old guy eat a damned peach? It's a soft fruit for God's sake. He could probably gum the thing to death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then I went back to reading Sylvia Plath because I was so sensitive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I am, however, much older than I ever thought I would be. And I happen to like that just fine. It's just that half of the men on my mother's side of the family never made it past their 30's. In a few days, barring accidents, I will have reached 40-- mid-life or, if put into seasonal terms, Midsummer. Not old, but, as I see it, just about right. To borrow from another literary source, I may be, like Miss Jean Brodie minus her attraction to Fascism, in my prime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think it more than just coincidence then that Midsummer is when peaches are in \u003cem>their\u003c/em> prime. Fully ripened, barely hanging onto the tree, easily bruised, and fuzz to be found in nearly every nook and cranny. God, I'm like a peach in more ways than I had previously imagined. No wonder that bits of a monologue-style poem I learned about an older guy briefly wondering about fruit has come to back haunt me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so I leave you with a simple recipe that will help keep me and my fellow peaches in good, supple form for just a little longer than the typical season allows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, and Mr. Prufrock? Go ahead, eat me.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then reduce to simmering. Cut a small \"x\" on the bottom of peaches with a sharp knife and gently lower them into the water. Leave the peaches in the water until their skins loosen and their screaming stops. Remove with a slotted spoon and let cool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In a large saucepan, combine sugar, water, cinnamon, and cardamom over high heat, stirring occasionally to ensure that the sugar is dissolved. Simmer for about five minutes, until a lovely syrup is formed. And I do mean lovely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Excorticate peaches when they are cool enough to handle. Cut in half, remove pits (or stones, if you are English or Canadian), then transfer them to a hot, 2-quart canning jar or 2 1-quart canning jars, equally hot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Add brandy to the syrup and bring to a boil. Ladle the hot syrup over the peaches and close the jar(s) tightly. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least one week before serving. The pickled peaches can be stored in your refrigerator for up to three months. As if they would really last that long.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Sprinkle the flour over the meat and mix everything together so the flour and spices cling to the meat chunks. Set meat in the refrigerator until ready to use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Place your oven on its broiler setting. While oven is heating, peal your onions and slice into 1/4-inch pieces. Dehusk your tomatillos and wash them thoroughly as well. Slice them into 1/4-inch slices as well. You can just slice the smaller tomatillos in half. Slice your Serrano or Jalapeno peppers in half. If you want to reduce some of the heat in the dish, take out the seeds and the inner whitish flesh as these are the real hot parts of the pepper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Drizzle some oil onto a baking sheet and set the onions on top. Flip the onions over so each side has a light coating of oil. Sprinkle with kosher or sea salt. Place pan under the broiler and cook until onions are browned. Be careful not to burn them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/roasted-tomatillos.jpg\" alt=\"roasted tomatillos\" title=\"roasted tomatillos\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5413\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Remove the onions from the pan and place them into a bowl. Drizzle a bit more oil onto the pan and lay the tomatillo and pepper slices on top. Season them with some salt and set under the broiler. Cook until they are soft and browned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Place the cooked onions, tomatillos and peppers into a food processor and pulse until the mixture is blended thoroughly but still a bit chunky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large Dutch oven (I prefer one made out of cast iron as it distributes the heat evenly, but this is not necessary). When the oil is hot, evenly distribute a portion of your pork pieces into the pot. Be sure not to add them all at once, or even to crowd the pan, as overcrowding will make the meat steam and we want the pork to sear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/seared-pork.jpg\" alt=\"seared pork\" title=\"seared pork\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5414\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. Sear the pork pieces on each side until they are slightly crispy and then remove them from the pan. Continue browning in batches until all the pork is seared, adding oil as needed. Note that you are not trying to cook the meat through at this point and that you actually want the inner portion of each cube should to remain uncooked. You are simply searing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>10. Once all the meat is browned, add your chicken stock or water to the pot and then scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or spatula to release the delicious caramelized bits. This will really help to flavor your sauce. Add in the meat and tomatillo mixture along with the rest of your cumin and oregano. I like to crush the dried oregano in my palm before adding it, which helps release its flavors. Add some salt and pepper to taste and stir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/simmering-chile.jpg\" alt=\"simmering chile\" title=\"simmering chile\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5415\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11. At this point you can either set the covered pot in the oven for two hours at 350 degrees (but be sure you use an oven-proof pot and cover), or you can simmer the stew on the stove for 2 hours. Either way, the stew needs to now simmer covered. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>12. After about 45 minutes of simmering, stir your stew and add more cumin, oregano, salt and pepper to taste. Recover the pot and place back in the oven or simmer further on the stove for at least another hour and 15 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>13. When stew is thoroughly cooked, with the meat literally falling apart when you touch it and the gravy clinging onto the meat, check your seasoning (adding more salt or pepper if needed; the cumin and oregano should be fine at this point) and serve with warm corn tortillas.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Be careful not to burn them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/roasted-tomatillos.jpg\" alt=\"roasted tomatillos\" title=\"roasted tomatillos\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5413\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Remove the onions from the pan and place them into a bowl. Drizzle a bit more oil onto the pan and lay the tomatillo and pepper slices on top. Season them with some salt and set under the broiler. Cook until they are soft and browned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Place the cooked onions, tomatillos and peppers into a food processor and pulse until the mixture is blended thoroughly but still a bit chunky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large Dutch oven (I prefer one made out of cast iron as it distributes the heat evenly, but this is not necessary). When the oil is hot, evenly distribute a portion of your pork pieces into the pot. Be sure not to add them all at once, or even to crowd the pan, as overcrowding will make the meat steam and we want the pork to sear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/seared-pork.jpg\" alt=\"seared pork\" title=\"seared pork\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5414\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. Sear the pork pieces on each side until they are slightly crispy and then remove them from the pan. Continue browning in batches until all the pork is seared, adding oil as needed. Note that you are not trying to cook the meat through at this point and that you actually want the inner portion of each cube should to remain uncooked. You are simply searing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>10. Once all the meat is browned, add your chicken stock or water to the pot and then scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or spatula to release the delicious caramelized bits. This will really help to flavor your sauce. Add in the meat and tomatillo mixture along with the rest of your cumin and oregano. I like to crush the dried oregano in my palm before adding it, which helps release its flavors. Add some salt and pepper to taste and stir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/simmering-chile.jpg\" alt=\"simmering chile\" title=\"simmering chile\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5415\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11. At this point you can either set the covered pot in the oven for two hours at 350 degrees (but be sure you use an oven-proof pot and cover), or you can simmer the stew on the stove for 2 hours. Either way, the stew needs to now simmer covered. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>12. After about 45 minutes of simmering, stir your stew and add more cumin, oregano, salt and pepper to taste. Recover the pot and place back in the oven or simmer further on the stove for at least another hour and 15 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It is one of the few questions I get to cheerfully answer with a big \"no.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You should really have one,\" is sometimes the response that follows. \"Don't you have a signature cocktail or something?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No, we really, really shouldn't and no, we do not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then I get to say something along the lines of \"Well, we thought about it for a while, but Greeks don't really drink cocktails-- they drink wine, and beer, and ouzo. I suppose we could mix them all together for you, if you like.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More often than not, they will need a moment to get the imaginary taste of that concoction out of their mouths and regroup. Quite often, their drink of choice ends up something depressing, like a Cosmopolitan, or something perfectly respectable but equally unimaginative, like a martini. And the martini that is ordered is often done so incorrectly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On one hand, I \u003cem>do\u003c/em> see the point of cocktail lists. People seem to need help with their drinking. The thought of facing a full bar stocked with hundreds of liquors blended into thousands of different combinations is enough to pickle anyone's brain, even before it has become clouded with alcohol and a little printed instruction can often help a drinker narrow his choices to those that the list-offering establishment feels it does best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the other, heavier hand, I am tired of the fact that nearly every watering hole seems to have a menu of \"signature cocktails.\" There are a few places around town (\u003ca href=\"http://www.alembicbar.com/\">Alembic\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.aziza-sf.com/61637_cocktails.html\">Aziza\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.westinstfrancis.com/clock_bar.cfm\">Clock Bar\u003c/a>, to name a few good ones) that offer up delicious, inventive cocktails that are, in fact, unique and they rightly highlight them in menu form. It's all the others I take issue with. The So-and-so Martini (made with Ketel One and a splash of cranberry!). That is not a signature cocktail, that's called pushing premium liquor. It's also called a Cape Cod in a Martini glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I am also tired of the general lack of creative naming. So many venues have several (insert noun here)-tinis: The Saketini, The Mangotini, The Weenytini. Or The (insert name of venue) Cosmo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enough already.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If one is going to create a signature cocktail, I say make it memorable. Make a statement. Create a drink philosophy and apply it to your inventions. I have currently been looking for a way to help alcoholics get more nutritional bang out of their cocktails by creating a series of meals-in-a-glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When discussing this idea the other night over dinner, my friend Jen stared at her beer for a moment and declared, \"You know what I like about beer? It's like there's a sandwich in every glass.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so the idea took off. All sorts of cocktail ideas poured out of my friends as quickly as the beer was being poured into them, all mocking the \"tini\" trend: The BLTini, The Pork n' Beanitini, the super-spicy TNTini. And then, when discussing Nabokov, somebody came up with the Tweeni.

The thought of facing a full bar stocked with hundreds of liquors blended into thousands of different combinations is enough to pickle anyone's brain, even before it has become clouded with alcohol and a little printed instruction can often help a drinker narrow his choices to those that the list-offering establishment feels it does best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the other, heavier hand, I am tired of the fact that nearly every watering hole seems to have a menu of \"signature cocktails.\" There are a few places around town (\u003ca href=\"http://www.alembicbar.com/\">Alembic\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.aziza-sf.com/61637_cocktails.html\">Aziza\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.westinstfrancis.com/clock_bar.cfm\">Clock Bar\u003c/a>, to name a few good ones) that offer up delicious, inventive cocktails that are, in fact, unique and they rightly highlight them in menu form. It's all the others I take issue with. The So-and-so Martini (made with Ketel One and a splash of cranberry!). That is not a signature cocktail, that's called pushing premium liquor. It's also called a Cape Cod in a Martini glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I am also tired of the general lack of creative naming. So many venues have several (insert noun here)-tinis: The Saketini, The Mangotini, The Weenytini. Or The (insert name of venue) Cosmo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enough already.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If one is going to create a signature cocktail, I say make it memorable. Make a statement. Create a drink philosophy and apply it to your inventions. I have currently been looking for a way to help alcoholics get more nutritional bang out of their cocktails by creating a series of meals-in-a-glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When discussing this idea the other night over dinner, my friend Jen stared at her beer for a moment and declared, \"You know what I like about beer? It's like there's a sandwich in every glass.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so the idea took off. All sorts of cocktail ideas poured out of my friends as quickly as the beer was being poured into them, all mocking the \"tini\" trend: The BLTini, The Pork n' Beanitini, the super-spicy TNTini. And then, when discussing Nabokov, somebody came up with the Tweeni. I don't even want to think about what might go into one of those.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So today, I leave you with a future, classic drink-- my first \"signature cocktail.\" It's much more than a drink, it's an entire meal unto itself.

In the past, I have always just cooked the corn on the stove to make soup, but this time I wondered how everything would turn out if I roasted it first. I had to give it a try. Now keep in mind that this is a simple recipe. Unlike other corn chowders, which are usually made in the winter, this soup doesn't include root vegetables, like potatoes, or spices. Corn is now in season so I really wanted it to be the star and adding other ingredients meant it would have to share the stage. I therefore settled on just corn, bacon and onion along with stock and milk. The result was lovely: just-picked corn sweetness caramelized on the grill with a salty bacon accent. You could easily serve the soup just like this, but because I am growing parsley in my backyard, I decided to top everything off with an herb pistou to round out the flavors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What, you may ask, is a pistou? It's just a fancy name for herbs blended with olive oil and seasonings. I often make a parsley pistou for my lentil soup, so whipped one up for the chowder. The result was more than I had hoped for. Like lime with jalapeno, or coffee with chocolate, the pistou heightened the corn's natural essence and elevated the flavor to a new level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roasted cream of corn chowder with parsley pistou has now become one of my favorite summer dishes, with or without a fog bank. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/grilled-corn2.jpg\" alt=\"grilled corn\" title=\"grilled corn\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5270\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Roasted Cream of Corn Chowder with Parsley Pistou\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Makes: \u003c/strong>4 servings\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n2 strips bacon\u003cbr>\n1/2 onion diced\u003cbr>\n3 large cobs of corn\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup half and half or whole milk\u003cbr>\n2 cups chicken stock\u003cbr>\nSalt and pepper to taste\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1.

Face it, purple cauliflower, baby bananas, and red carrots are just fun. Same goes for the different squash and eggplant varieties you can find in abundance during the summer months. I adore those striped zucchinis, flat and yellow squashes, and long thin eggplants. Better yet, my kids think they're cool. And when kids think vegetables are cool, they're far more likely to eat them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My daughters love to go to the farmers' market with me to pick out the vegetables that look the most appealing to them that week (although this is not as much fun as the bounce house they have there). During our visit last week, my kids were intrigued by the small globe squash and eggplant available at one of my favorite stands. They thought they looked like little vegetable planets and started deciding which one was Venus and which was Jupiter. If there's anything better than \"cool\" vegetables, it's vegetables that make my kids think, so obviously I bought two bags. As I handed over my money, I realized that in addition to the minor science lesson, this was the perfect opportunity to make one of my favorite summer dishes: stuffed squash and eggplant. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/baby-globe-eggplant-and-squash.jpg\" alt=\"baby globe eggplant and squash\" title=\"baby globe eggplant and squash\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5162\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stuffed squash and eggplant really make a great mid-week meal as the shape of the veggies are ideal for stuffing with leftovers. Sure you could cook up some fresh items for the stuffing, but this is really the perfect opportunity to use the rest of the chicken or beef you made on Monday, or the rice leftover from Chinese takeout the day before. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/hollow-squash.jpg\" alt=\"hollow squash\" title=\"hollow squash\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5163\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I start off by scooping the inner meat from the vegetables (this is easily accomplished with a grapefruit spoon if you have one) and then making a type of quick ratatouille out of it with some tomatoes, garlic and onion. I then mix in whatever grain I have in the fridge (although you could of course make some if you don't have any handy) and then toss in some chopped meat. When I made the dish this week I used some leftover beef brisket from the 4th of July. By the time I made this dish my husband and I were a little tired of the BBQ flavor of the brisket, but stuffed inside the vegetables with the ratatouille, rice and some cheeses, its flavors added a depth to the dish that really wowed us. Chicken, pork, or marinated tofu would also work well, as would lentils or chick peas. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/grilling-the-veggies.jpg\" alt=\"grilling the veggies\" title=\"grilling the veggies\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5164\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Usually I bake my stuffed squash and eggplant in the oven, but this week I wanted to try grilling them. The result was really quite good. The intense heat from the grill brought out a sweetness in the squash and eggplant that baking hadn't in the past. The dish also cooked in about half the time it takes in the oven. The only problem was keeping everything upright on the grill so the stuffing didn’t spill out; this was easily remedied, however, by a muffin pan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/grilled-squash-and-eggplant-in-muffin-tin.jpg\" alt=\"grilled squash and eggplant in muffin tin\" title=\"grilled squash and eggplant in muffin tin\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5170\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we sat down to dinner, my kids saw a fun-shaped vegetable they were excited to eat, while I was marveling at how that leftover brisket and rice looked so mouthwatering inside the fresh squash and eggplant. The frugal side of me was quite pleased not to waste those perfectly good leftovers. Everyone was happy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/squash-and-eggplant-on-a-plate.jpg\" alt=\"squash and eggplant on a plate\" title=\"squash and eggplant on a plate\" width=\"400\" height=\"310\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5165\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Stuffed Globe Squash and Eggplant\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Makes: \u003c/strong>Enough for 4 - 6 people\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nIngredients:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6 baby globe squash (also known as summer squash) -- around 2 inches in diameter\u003cbr>\n6 baby globe eggplants -- around 2 inches in diameter\u003cbr>\n1/4 cup olive oil\u003cbr>\n1 cup cooked grains (such as rice, barley, couscous, or small pasta)\u003cbr>\n1 cup chopped tomatoes or drained canned tomatoes\u003cbr>\n1 medium or 2 small onions\u003cbr>\n2 cloves garlic\u003cbr>\n1 cup cooked meat (beef, chicken, or pork diced) or cooked beans such as lentils\u003cbr>\n2 Tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley\u003cbr>\n2 Tbsp chopped fresh oregano\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup cheese (mozzarella, jack, or anything you like that melts smoothly) chopped into small cubes\u003cbr>\nSalt and pepper to taste\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1.

Scoop out the interior flesh of the vegetables, being sure to leave at least a 1/4-inch intact so the outer skin can hold the filling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Chop all the vegetables (the onions, garlic and tomatoes, along with the squash and eggplant meat) into small pieces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Heat about 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large non-reactive pan to medium heat. Add in the onions and garlic and cook for 1 - 2 minutes or until soft. Add in the squash and eggplant pieces and cook for another couple of minutes. Add more olive oil as needed at this point as the eggplant really soaks it up. Add in the tomatoes and cook until everything is soft. Season to taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Line squash and eggplant shells on a baking pan and sprinkle with olive oil and salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Add parsley and oregano to the mixed vegetables and then start scooping it into each squash and eggplant skin until half-way filled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Add a cube or two of cheese to each vegetable and then continue stuffing until each vegetable is full. Top with the remainder of the cheese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>8. Heat your grill to medium high and then set each stuffed squash and eggplant onto direct heat (being careful to stand them up straight so the filling doesn’t fall out). Cook for around two minutes with the cover down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. With tongs, transfer the eggplant and squash to a muffin pan (you can pair up some of the smaller vegetables) and set the pan inside the grill with the cover down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Note: Use an old muffin pan you no longer care much about or, if you have a nice one, cover each receptacle with aluminum foil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>10. Grill for another 5 minutes or until everything looks nicely cooked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11. Repeat until all vegetables are cooked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>12.

Face it, purple cauliflower, baby bananas, and red carrots are just fun. Same goes for the different squash and eggplant varieties you can find in abundance during the summer months. I adore those striped zucchinis, flat and yellow squashes, and long thin eggplants. Better yet, my kids think they're cool. And when kids think vegetables are cool, they're far more likely to eat them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My daughters love to go to the farmers' market with me to pick out the vegetables that look the most appealing to them that week (although this is not as much fun as the bounce house they have there). During our visit last week, my kids were intrigued by the small globe squash and eggplant available at one of my favorite stands. They thought they looked like little vegetable planets and started deciding which one was Venus and which was Jupiter. If there's anything better than \"cool\" vegetables, it's vegetables that make my kids think, so obviously I bought two bags. As I handed over my money, I realized that in addition to the minor science lesson, this was the perfect opportunity to make one of my favorite summer dishes: stuffed squash and eggplant. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/baby-globe-eggplant-and-squash.jpg\" alt=\"baby globe eggplant and squash\" title=\"baby globe eggplant and squash\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5162\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stuffed squash and eggplant really make a great mid-week meal as the shape of the veggies are ideal for stuffing with leftovers. Sure you could cook up some fresh items for the stuffing, but this is really the perfect opportunity to use the rest of the chicken or beef you made on Monday, or the rice leftover from Chinese takeout the day before. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/hollow-squash.jpg\" alt=\"hollow squash\" title=\"hollow squash\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5163\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I then mix in whatever grain I have in the fridge (although you could of course make some if you don't have any handy) and then toss in some chopped meat. When I made the dish this week I used some leftover beef brisket from the 4th of July. By the time I made this dish my husband and I were a little tired of the BBQ flavor of the brisket, but stuffed inside the vegetables with the ratatouille, rice and some cheeses, its flavors added a depth to the dish that really wowed us. Chicken, pork, or marinated tofu would also work well, as would lentils or chick peas. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/grilling-the-veggies.jpg\" alt=\"grilling the veggies\" title=\"grilling the veggies\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5164\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Usually I bake my stuffed squash and eggplant in the oven, but this week I wanted to try grilling them. The result was really quite good. The intense heat from the grill brought out a sweetness in the squash and eggplant that baking hadn't in the past. The dish also cooked in about half the time it takes in the oven. The only problem was keeping everything upright on the grill so the stuffing didn’t spill out; this was easily remedied, however, by a muffin pan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/grilled-squash-and-eggplant-in-muffin-tin.jpg\" alt=\"grilled squash and eggplant in muffin tin\" title=\"grilled squash and eggplant in muffin tin\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5170\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we sat down to dinner, my kids saw a fun-shaped vegetable they were excited to eat, while I was marveling at how that leftover brisket and rice looked so mouthwatering inside the fresh squash and eggplant. The frugal side of me was quite pleased not to waste those perfectly good leftovers. Everyone was happy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/squash-and-eggplant-on-a-plate.jpg\" alt=\"squash and eggplant on a plate\" title=\"squash and eggplant on a plate\" width=\"400\" height=\"310\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5165\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Stuffed Globe Squash and Eggplant\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Makes: \u003c/strong>Enough for 4 - 6 people\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nIngredients:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6 baby globe squash (also known as summer squash) -- around 2 inches in diameter\u003cbr>\n6 baby globe eggplants -- around 2 inches in diameter\u003cbr>\n1/4 cup olive oil\u003cbr>\n1 cup cooked grains (such as rice, barley, couscous, or small pasta)\u003cbr>\n1 cup chopped tomatoes or drained canned tomatoes\u003cbr>\n1 medium or 2 small onions\u003cbr>\n2 cloves garlic\u003cbr>\n1 cup cooked meat (beef, chicken, or pork diced) or cooked beans such as lentils\u003cbr>\n2 Tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley\u003cbr>\n2 Tbsp chopped fresh oregano\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup cheese (mozzarella, jack, or anything you like that melts smoothly) chopped into small cubes\u003cbr>\nSalt and pepper to taste\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Wash squash and eggplant and then slice off the top stem-side.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Scoop out the interior flesh of the vegetables, being sure to leave at least a 1/4-inch intact so the outer skin can hold the filling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Chop all the vegetables (the onions, garlic and tomatoes, along with the squash and eggplant meat) into small pieces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Heat about 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large non-reactive pan to medium heat. Add in the onions and garlic and cook for 1 - 2 minutes or until soft. Add in the squash and eggplant pieces and cook for another couple of minutes. Add more olive oil as needed at this point as the eggplant really soaks it up. Add in the tomatoes and cook until everything is soft. Season to taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Line squash and eggplant shells on a baking pan and sprinkle with olive oil and salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Add parsley and oregano to the mixed vegetables and then start scooping it into each squash and eggplant skin until half-way filled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Add a cube or two of cheese to each vegetable and then continue stuffing until each vegetable is full. Top with the remainder of the cheese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>8. Heat your grill to medium high and then set each stuffed squash and eggplant onto direct heat (being careful to stand them up straight so the filling doesn’t fall out). Cook for around two minutes with the cover down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. With tongs, transfer the eggplant and squash to a muffin pan (you can pair up some of the smaller vegetables) and set the pan inside the grill with the cover down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Note: Use an old muffin pan you no longer care much about or, if you have a nice one, cover each receptacle with aluminum foil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>10. Grill for another 5 minutes or until everything looks nicely cooked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11. Repeat until all vegetables are cooked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>12.

And the olive oil, of course, gives you a shiny, healthy-looking coat.
