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.",

"bio": "Kim Westerman has been writing about food and wine for most of her adult life. Originally from North Carolina, she moved to Berkeley in 2006 to pursue the California dream, which, it turns out, is all it’s cracked up to be. She’s a farmers' market junkie, a lover of all things tomato, and Champagne-obsessed. She loves to cook with her kids, eight and three, and she makes frequent pilgrimages to International Boulevard in search of her next favorite Mexican dish. She spends an inordinate amount of time thinking about food and wine pairing, often starting with the wine and working backwards when planning menus. She is a Level I Sommelier and a Licensed Q-Grader. Her work has appeared in KQED's Bay Area Bites, Forbes.com, the New York Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, Tasting Table, Fodor’s Travel Guides, and lots of other publications. You can follow Kim on Twitter and Instagram @throughtraveler.",

"content": "\u003cp>Ask any Swede and they'll tell you that a smörgåsbord table without herring is (gasp) unthinkable. While there are other foods they may rattle off as equally important ––gravlax, cured ham, meatballs and rice pudding –– it's these tiny, pickled fish that are the backbone of the elaborate buffet, which likely traces its roots back to high-society gatherings in the 1500s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The spread was smaller then, and was called the \"aquavite buffet.\" Since people were traveling long distances, it was a way to entertain guests, mostly men in earlier times, while waiting for stragglers. A separate table was set up in a side room with savory bites that could be enjoyed while standing along with glasses of aquavit –– made from potato or grains and cured with herbs like caraway, dill, fennel, coriander and anise. \u003ca href=\"http://kokblog.johannak.com/\">Johanna Kindvall\u003c/a>, writer and illustrator of the book\u003cem> \u003ca href=\"https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/548259/smorgasbord-by-johanna-kindvall/9780399579097/\">Smörgåsbord\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, says it's possible the tradition was borrowed from the Russians who liked to mingle around eating caviar, herring and vodka.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That snack grew into a meal — and that meal grew into what it is today: a smörgåsbord, a table set with seemingly every iconic dish known to Sweden. First introduced to America by the Swedish delegation at the 1939 World's Fair in Flushing, Queens, the smörgåsbord meal is traditionally served on Dec. 24, when it's called the \u003cem>julbord\u003c/em> — or Christmas table. Over time it extended its reach and became the default celebratory meal served at holidays like Mother's Day and Easter, at hotels, in train stations and restaurants, and of course, the home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're lucky enough to get invited to a traditional smörgåsbord meal, you should know that there are as many rules as there are dishes. If you're Swedish, these rules are instilled from a very early age and are as instinctual as breathing, or the umlaut. Long tables are buried under a sea of plates — sometimes placed at different heights to accommodate the sheer number. Your job will be to approach it with the restraint of someone who can take food or leave it, even if you're like me: a cured-fish fanatic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123786\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2997px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/mg_9756_slide-6fe8201cd4b63d387464a754d352385ab6a906dd.jpg\" alt=\"A seasoned smörgåsbord muncher will tell you: start with the herring.

Bengston's elaborate preparations borrow heavily from her time working at \u003ca href=\"https://operakallaren.se/\">Operakällaren\u003c/a>, a Swedish restaurant that opened in 1787.

A separate table was set up in a side room with savory bites that could be enjoyed while standing along with glasses of aquavit –– made from potato or grains and cured with herbs like caraway, dill, fennel, coriander and anise. \u003ca href=\"http://kokblog.johannak.com/\">Johanna Kindvall\u003c/a>, writer and illustrator of the book\u003cem> \u003ca href=\"https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/548259/smorgasbord-by-johanna-kindvall/9780399579097/\">Smörgåsbord\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, says it's possible the tradition was borrowed from the Russians who liked to mingle around eating caviar, herring and vodka.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That snack grew into a meal — and that meal grew into what it is today: a smörgåsbord, a table set with seemingly every iconic dish known to Sweden. First introduced to America by the Swedish delegation at the 1939 World's Fair in Flushing, Queens, the smörgåsbord meal is traditionally served on Dec. 24, when it's called the \u003cem>julbord\u003c/em> — or Christmas table. Over time it extended its reach and became the default celebratory meal served at holidays like Mother's Day and Easter, at hotels, in train stations and restaurants, and of course, the home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're lucky enough to get invited to a traditional smörgåsbord meal, you should know that there are as many rules as there are dishes. If you're Swedish, these rules are instilled from a very early age and are as instinctual as breathing, or the umlaut. Long tables are buried under a sea of plates — sometimes placed at different heights to accommodate the sheer number. Your job will be to approach it with the restraint of someone who can take food or leave it, even if you're like me: a cured-fish fanatic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123786\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2997px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/mg_9756_slide-6fe8201cd4b63d387464a754d352385ab6a906dd.jpg\" alt=\"A seasoned smörgåsbord muncher will tell you: start with the herring.

My favorite west coast trout salad sandwich hails from \u003ca href=\"http://wisesonsdeli.com/\">Wise Sons\u003c/a> in San Francisco’s Mission and is always a weekend treat. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when I was trying to come up with some fun holiday party fare, I thought about the flavors and foods that I love, as well as the season and availability of fresh produce (or lack thereof). When that sandwich came to mind, I knew I could transform it into a savory dip. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This delicately smoky dip is packed with flavor and texture: fresh herbs, crunch celery, zingy lemon zest, and just a pop of Dijon to give it a kick. You can serve it with homemade crostini, as I’ve done here, or make it easier and grab a bag of bagel chips from the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you want garlic crostini, just rub a peeled clove of garlic on the hot crostini when it comes from the oven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123520\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new.jpg\" alt=\"Smoked Trout-Herb Dip with Crostini\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123520\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Smoked Trout-Herb Dip with Crostini \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Smoked Trout-Herb Dip with Crostini\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 12 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Crostini\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>1 baguette, cut on the diagonal into 3/8-inch slices (about 2 dozen slices)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123510\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new.jpg\" alt=\"Cut 1 baguette on the diagonal into 3/8-inch slices (about 2 dozen slices).\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123510\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cut 1 baguette on the diagonal into 3/8-inch slices. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cem>Dip\u003c/em>\n\u003cli>8 oz smoked trout, skin and bones removed, flaked\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>½ cup mayonnaise\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>½ cup sour cream\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 small stalk celery, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives or green onion\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp finely chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp finely chopped fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp finely grated lemon zest (I used a Meyer lemon)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 tsp Dijon mustard\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tbsp lemon juice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" link=\"none\" columns=\"1\" size=\"full\" ids=\"123500,123501,123502\"]\n\u003c/p>\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 425F.

My favorite west coast trout salad sandwich hails from \u003ca href=\"http://wisesonsdeli.com/\">Wise Sons\u003c/a> in San Francisco’s Mission and is always a weekend treat. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when I was trying to come up with some fun holiday party fare, I thought about the flavors and foods that I love, as well as the season and availability of fresh produce (or lack thereof). When that sandwich came to mind, I knew I could transform it into a savory dip. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This delicately smoky dip is packed with flavor and texture: fresh herbs, crunch celery, zingy lemon zest, and just a pop of Dijon to give it a kick. You can serve it with homemade crostini, as I’ve done here, or make it easier and grab a bag of bagel chips from the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you want garlic crostini, just rub a peeled clove of garlic on the hot crostini when it comes from the oven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123520\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new.jpg\" alt=\"Smoked Trout-Herb Dip with Crostini\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123520\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4759-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Smoked Trout-Herb Dip with Crostini \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Smoked Trout-Herb Dip with Crostini\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 12 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Crostini\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>1 baguette, cut on the diagonal into 3/8-inch slices (about 2 dozen slices)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp olive oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123510\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new.jpg\" alt=\"Cut 1 baguette on the diagonal into 3/8-inch slices (about 2 dozen slices).\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123510\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4635-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cut 1 baguette on the diagonal into 3/8-inch slices. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cem>Dip\u003c/em>\n\u003cli>8 oz smoked trout, skin and bones removed, flaked\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>½ cup mayonnaise\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>½ cup sour cream\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 small stalk celery, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives or green onion\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp finely chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp finely chopped fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp finely grated lemon zest (I used a Meyer lemon)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 tsp Dijon mustard\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tbsp lemon juice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Now, when I say fritter, I don’t mean deep-fried, apple-stuffed donuts (and I certainly don’t mean the \u003ca href=\"https://www.chowhound.com/food-news/158397/this-is-the-turducken-of-donuts/\">turducken of donuts\u003c/a>). These are the shredded vegetable type, lightly held together with batter or breadcrumbs, and pan-fried in just enough oil to cook the vegetables to tenderness and create a crisp crust.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the summertime, I use up an abundance of zucchini by shredding it, mixing it with plenty of herbs and feta, and then cooking them into golden bites of heaven (check out the recipe for \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/08/22/summer-decadence-crispy-zucchini-fritters-with-lemony-yogurt-herb-dip/\">Crispy Zucchini Fritters with Lemony Yogurt-Herb Dip\u003c/a>). Sweet corn, folded into a delicate batter, makes a great bite-sized fritter appetizer, and a new and interesting way to use all the corn piled high in the markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the wintertime, when there are fewer vegetable options—let’s be honest, I’m a summer veggie kind of gal—I get bored pretty quickly once I’ve run through the standard roasted root vegetable, kale salad, pureed winter squash recipes. Plus, in my household, I don’t find winter veggies to be nearly as kid-friendly. Or me-friendly! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enter root veggie fritters. Basically just an updated version of a potato \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/tag/latkes/\">latke\u003c/a> (always a winner in my book), these fritters are colorful and flavorful and will liven up your winter veggie blues! Here, I’ve used carrots, parsnips, and sweet potatoes, but you can mix it up and experiment with whatever root veg you like. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a fun party-friendly appetizer, serve these in bite-sized portions with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of parsley. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a starter-sized portion, perfect for your next dinner party, make slightly larger fritters, and serve them with \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/08/22/summer-decadence-crispy-zucchini-fritters-with-lemony-yogurt-herb-dip/\">herbed yogurt sauce\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fritters can be made up to 3 hours in advance, and left at room temperature. Warm on a rimmed baking sheet in a preheated 350F oven until crisp and hot, about 15 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123418\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new.jpg\" alt=\"Root Veggie Fritters\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123418\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4540-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Root Veggie Fritters \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Root Veggie Fritters\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 2 dozen (2-inch) fritters\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 cup grated carrot, peeled first (about 2 medium)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 cup grated parsnip, peeled first (about 4 small)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 cup grated sweet potato, peeled first (about 6 oz)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 yellow onion, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 large eggs, lightly beaten\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp finely chopped fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley, plus more for garnish\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Plain Greek yogurt, for serving (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Line a baking sheet with paper towels.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Shred the (peeled) carrot, parsnip, and sweet potato on the large holes of a box grater.

Now, when I say fritter, I don’t mean deep-fried, apple-stuffed donuts (and I certainly don’t mean the \u003ca href=\"https://www.chowhound.com/food-news/158397/this-is-the-turducken-of-donuts/\">turducken of donuts\u003c/a>). These are the shredded vegetable type, lightly held together with batter or breadcrumbs, and pan-fried in just enough oil to cook the vegetables to tenderness and create a crisp crust.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the summertime, I use up an abundance of zucchini by shredding it, mixing it with plenty of herbs and feta, and then cooking them into golden bites of heaven (check out the recipe for \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/08/22/summer-decadence-crispy-zucchini-fritters-with-lemony-yogurt-herb-dip/\">Crispy Zucchini Fritters with Lemony Yogurt-Herb Dip\u003c/a>). Sweet corn, folded into a delicate batter, makes a great bite-sized fritter appetizer, and a new and interesting way to use all the corn piled high in the markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the wintertime, when there are fewer vegetable options—let’s be honest, I’m a summer veggie kind of gal—I get bored pretty quickly once I’ve run through the standard roasted root vegetable, kale salad, pureed winter squash recipes. Plus, in my household, I don’t find winter veggies to be nearly as kid-friendly. Or me-friendly! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enter root veggie fritters. Basically just an updated version of a potato \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/tag/latkes/\">latke\u003c/a> (always a winner in my book), these fritters are colorful and flavorful and will liven up your winter veggie blues! Here, I’ve used carrots, parsnips, and sweet potatoes, but you can mix it up and experiment with whatever root veg you like. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Confused? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortbread is a favorite at holiday-time (or other special occasions like weddings), as it was historically an expensive luxury given that two of the main ingredients were butter and sugar. And while nowadays it is eaten year-round, and often given as a Scottish souvenir, it’s still special in our book.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortbread can be as simple as the key ingredients: flour, sugar, and butter, or it can be embellished with flavorings like vanilla bean, lemon or orange zest, dried lavender, ginger, or even chocolate. I like the addition of a bit of salt to offset the sweetness, like I do with pretty much any dessert or sweet. And a little cornstarch keeps the texture from becoming overly crumbly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Traditionally, shortbread is baked in one of three ways: baked in a square pan and cut into rectangles (or “fingers”), baked in a round and cut into wedges, or cut into individual rounds. This recipe was tested in a square pan and cut into rectangles, but it could also be baked in a round cake pan and cut into wedges (also called “petticoat tails”).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here, I’ve added lemon zest and a splash of juice to give this version of shortbread a little kick. Feel free to leave those out and experiment with any of the additions I’ve listed above.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123349\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new.jpg\" alt=\"Lemony Shortbread.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123349\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5372-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lemony Shortbread. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Lemony Shortbread\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 2 dozen shortbread\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 1/3 cups flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tbsp\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 tbsp cornstarch\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 tsp kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Finely grated zest of 1 large lemon\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>14 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 tbsp lemon juice\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123337\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new.jpg\" alt=\"Cut cold unsalted butter into pieces.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123337\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_4974-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cut cold unsalted butter into pieces. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Our cookie platter would be lonely without it.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My husband hails from Scotland, where shortbread is a BIG DEAL. Coincidentally, it is also the birthplace of shortbread, where it has been made, in one guise or another, for centuries. Wrap your head around that…a centuries-old cookie. Of course, they would never describe it as a “cookie” since it is a biscuit, but it is not a bread. Confused? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortbread is a favorite at holiday-time (or other special occasions like weddings), as it was historically an expensive luxury given that two of the main ingredients were butter and sugar. And while nowadays it is eaten year-round, and often given as a Scottish souvenir, it’s still special in our book.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortbread can be as simple as the key ingredients: flour, sugar, and butter, or it can be embellished with flavorings like vanilla bean, lemon or orange zest, dried lavender, ginger, or even chocolate. I like the addition of a bit of salt to offset the sweetness, like I do with pretty much any dessert or sweet. And a little cornstarch keeps the texture from becoming overly crumbly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Traditionally, shortbread is baked in one of three ways: baked in a square pan and cut into rectangles (or “fingers”), baked in a round and cut into wedges, or cut into individual rounds. This recipe was tested in a square pan and cut into rectangles, but it could also be baked in a round cake pan and cut into wedges (also called “petticoat tails”).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Usually they were stuffed with a simple mixture of sausage and cream cheese, and not really anything else. But they were so delicious. The trick was to time it just right so you could eat them—whole, in one massive bite—while they were still hot (they were very hard to resist) but not so hot that they burned your mouth. I pretty much burned my mouth every single time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t know that we ever wrote that recipe down, but I’ve re-created it over the years. This is a slightly fancypants version of that 1970s classic cocktail party recipe, and sure to be a real crowd-pleaser. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve added spinach to this updated version, and kept it vegetarian, but you can omit the spinach and mix in 8oz or so of bulk pork sausage (I think we always used sweet Italian sausage or something similar) before stuffing. Make extra sure if you use the sausage to cook the stuffing all the way through!

Usually they were stuffed with a simple mixture of sausage and cream cheese, and not really anything else. But they were so delicious. The trick was to time it just right so you could eat them—whole, in one massive bite—while they were still hot (they were very hard to resist) but not so hot that they burned your mouth. I pretty much burned my mouth every single time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t know that we ever wrote that recipe down, but I’ve re-created it over the years. This is a slightly fancypants version of that 1970s classic cocktail party recipe, and sure to be a real crowd-pleaser. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve added spinach to this updated version, and kept it vegetarian, but you can omit the spinach and mix in 8oz or so of bulk pork sausage (I think we always used sweet Italian sausage or something similar) before stuffing. Make extra sure if you use the sausage to cook the stuffing all the way through! If you want to keep these gluten-free, just omit the breadcrumbs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And do let them cool slightly before you burn your tongue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123316\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new.jpg\" alt=\"Fresh baked Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms with Crispy Herbed Breadcrumbs.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123316\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4219-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fresh baked Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms with Crispy Herbed Breadcrumbs. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms with Crispy Herbed Breadcrumbs\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 24 stuffed mushrooms\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 1/4 lb cremini or button mushrooms (medium or large; about 24)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp unsalted butter\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 large or 2 small shallots, minced\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 oz fresh baby spinach\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 oz cream cheese\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup grated Parmesan\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 cup panko bread crumbs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp dried Italian seasoning\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123293\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new.jpg\" alt=\"Prepping to make Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms with Crispy Herbed Breadcrumbs\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123293\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3668-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prepping to make Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms with Crispy Herbed Breadcrumbs \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Spray a large rimmed baking sheet lightly with cooking spray.

"content": "\u003cp>Melt-in-your-mouth butter balls, also known by many other names like Mexican wedding cakes, are a must on your holiday cookie platter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandies, butter balls, Mexican wedding cakes, Russian tea cakes, snowballs, or pecan balls…whatever you might call them, these powdery white cookies all have something in common: they are buttery and nutty, with a crumbly texture, coated in powdered sugar, and one of the most-loved holiday cookies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And every year, for as long as I remember, my mom has baked them. And her mother--my grandmother--baked them before her, and quite possibly her mother—my great-grandmother—baked them for my grandmother, and so on. Sometimes I bake butterballs along with my mom, sometimes I just make my own batch, and often they find their way onto my sister-in-law’s cookie platter. Honestly, it just wouldn’t be Christmas without them. (Of course, because I don’t eat pecans, we almost always leave them out, or I sometimes swap out the pecans for finely chopped toasted almonds. Walnuts will work too for those of you who like them!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A simple mixture of butter, flour, powdered sugar, and nuts, plus a little salt and vanilla, is all you need to create these memorable little cakes.

And her mother--my grandmother--baked them before her, and quite possibly her mother—my great-grandmother—baked them for my grandmother, and so on. Sometimes I bake butterballs along with my mom, sometimes I just make my own batch, and often they find their way onto my sister-in-law’s cookie platter. Honestly, it just wouldn’t be Christmas without them. (Of course, because I don’t eat pecans, we almost always leave them out, or I sometimes swap out the pecans for finely chopped toasted almonds. Walnuts will work too for those of you who like them!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A simple mixture of butter, flour, powdered sugar, and nuts, plus a little salt and vanilla, is all you need to create these memorable little cakes. But the true beauty of these whatever-you-call-them cookies happens when they are still warm from the oven, and are swathed in a coating of powdered sugar which melts in your mouth with each delicate bite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This recipe, the original being a handwritten recipe card in my mother’s handwriting, has been passed down through a few generations of women in my family. I’ve no idea where it came from, but it’s been slightly updated throughout the years. I hope you enjoy it for generations to come!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123222\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new.jpg\" alt=\"Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls are ready to serve.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123222\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls are ready to serve. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls\n\u003ch2>\n\u003c/h2>\u003c/h2>\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 22 cookies\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 cup (8 oz) unsalted butter, at cool room temperature\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 cup powdered sugar, sifted\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 cup (2 oz) chopped toasted pecans (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123262\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new.jpg\" alt=\"Sift 1 cup powdered sugar.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123262\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sift 1 cup powdered sugar. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 300F.

This is cold-weather comfort food at its finest, and a great way to get those healthy greens into those who may otherwise turn their noses up at the thought of eating a vegetable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a reason why this is traditional fare at steakhouses: alongside a perfectly seared, juicy steak and a steaming baked potato, creamed spinach can hold its own. For an upscale holiday dinner, it goes remarkably well with \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2016/12/16/a-holiday-classic-slow-roasted-beef-prime-rib-roast/\" target=\"_blank\">prime rib\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2016/12/19/a-holiday-christmas-classic-yorkshire-puddings/\" target=\"_blank\">Yorkshire puddings\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2013/12/21/british-style-roasties-a-whole-new-potato/\" target=\"_blank\">British-style roasties\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you like your creamed spinach a little thicker and heartier, cook the sauce down a bit longer.

If you like it a bit runnier, just add another little splash of cream to get it to the consistency you like. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if you really want to get fancy, spoon the creamed spinach into a buttered baking dish, top with buttered fresh bread crumbs, and bake in a 400F oven until the bread crumbs are golden brown and the creamed spinach is bubbly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_114200\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1.jpg\" alt=\"Creamed Spinach\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-114200\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/creamed-spinach-finish1-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Creamed Spinach \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Creamed Spinach\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 6 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for buttering the dish\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 lbs fresh baby spinach\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 small yellow onion, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 tablespoons all-purpose flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 3/4 cups whole milk, plus more as needed\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup heavy cream\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>In a large frying pan or sauté pan over medium heat, melt 1/2 tablespoon of the butter.

"content": "\u003cp>Quite a few years ago, my family and I got tired of serving up yet another turkey dinner at Christmastime. I mean, Thanksgiving and Christmas are barely 4 weeks apart (sometimes more, sometimes less). Who really, truly wants to eat turkey again so soon? So my brother and I took it upon ourselves to come up with the ultimate feast. A once-a-year extravaganza of food we would never normally cook, mostly due to budget and health considerations. Say hello to the roast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For me, one of the most elaborate things you can bestow upon your dinner party is a glorious roast. From a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/12/17/a-holiday-feast-roasted-beef-tenderloin-with-port-shallot-and-mushroom-sauce/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">whole beef tenderloin\u003c/a> to a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/12/18/holiday-dinner-main-dish-roast-rack-of-lamb-with-garlic-and-herb-butter/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rack of lamb\u003c/a>, over the years we’ve served them all. I find this elaborate because I don’t normally eat a ton of meat, either regularly or in one sitting. And to serve a roast, you typically need to have quite a few guests to help you devour it (because we certainly don’t want any tiny little morsel of it to go to waste).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, we decided to go classic old-school: prime rib. This feeds both the Texan in me and my brother, and the Brit in my husband. To create the ultimate steakhouse dinner, make this prime rib roast with the jus (a well-seasoned, light gravy) along with the \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2016/12/19/a-holiday-christmas-classic-yorkshire-puddings/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yorkshire puddings\u003c/a> and creamed spinach that we added to the menu this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seek out the best quality roast you can find from a reputable butcher. Look for a first cut, 3-bone prime rib which gives you more meat and less fat. That being said, you want to make sure that you get a roast that has nice marbling throughout. If you really want to splurge, be sure to ask for Prime grade beef, rather than Choice which is what most supermarkets carry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_114052\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-114052\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw.jpg\" alt=\"Beef Prime Rib Roast\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Beef Prime Rib Roast \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>You can leave the ribs attached to the roast if you like, but to make carving easier once the roast is cooked, ask your butcher (or do it yourself!) ahead of time to cut the ribs off of the roast.

I mean, Thanksgiving and Christmas are barely 4 weeks apart (sometimes more, sometimes less). Who really, truly wants to eat turkey again so soon? So my brother and I took it upon ourselves to come up with the ultimate feast. A once-a-year extravaganza of food we would never normally cook, mostly due to budget and health considerations. Say hello to the roast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For me, one of the most elaborate things you can bestow upon your dinner party is a glorious roast. From a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/12/17/a-holiday-feast-roasted-beef-tenderloin-with-port-shallot-and-mushroom-sauce/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">whole beef tenderloin\u003c/a> to a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/12/18/holiday-dinner-main-dish-roast-rack-of-lamb-with-garlic-and-herb-butter/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rack of lamb\u003c/a>, over the years we’ve served them all. I find this elaborate because I don’t normally eat a ton of meat, either regularly or in one sitting. And to serve a roast, you typically need to have quite a few guests to help you devour it (because we certainly don’t want any tiny little morsel of it to go to waste).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, we decided to go classic old-school: prime rib. This feeds both the Texan in me and my brother, and the Brit in my husband. To create the ultimate steakhouse dinner, make this prime rib roast with the jus (a well-seasoned, light gravy) along with the \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2016/12/19/a-holiday-christmas-classic-yorkshire-puddings/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yorkshire puddings\u003c/a> and creamed spinach that we added to the menu this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seek out the best quality roast you can find from a reputable butcher. Look for a first cut, 3-bone prime rib which gives you more meat and less fat. That being said, you want to make sure that you get a roast that has nice marbling throughout. If you really want to splurge, be sure to ask for Prime grade beef, rather than Choice which is what most supermarkets carry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_114052\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-114052\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw.jpg\" alt=\"Beef Prime Rib Roast\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/12/prime-rib-raw-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Beef Prime Rib Roast \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>You can leave the ribs attached to the roast if you like, but to make carving easier once the roast is cooked, ask your butcher (or do it yourself!) ahead of time to cut the ribs off of the roast. Then reserve the bones, and re-attach them to the roast after browning using kitchen string or butcher’s twine. The other advantage of doing this is that it allows you to add the rib bones to the jus when finishing it before serving—another beefy layer of flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Slow-Roasted Beef Prime Rib Roast\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 6 to 8 servings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Let the roast stand for about 30 minutes before carving. This “resting” period allows the juices to redistribute and will result in a juicier, more tender roast. The internal temperature of the roast will continue to rise as it rests.
