Cinnamon Apples with Maple Syrup

2023-09-12T10:13:50-04:00September 12th, 2023|Cooking With VT Fresh|

There are apples and then there are Vermont grown apples! I have spent many years picking (and sampling) my way through many of our amazing orchards, leaving with a full belly and plans for pies, apple sauce, chutneys and apple cakes swirling through my head. With more than 150 varieties grown in Vermont there are many flavors, colors, and textures to explore. A Vermont orchard is a foodie’s paradise. With great joy this week, I took my first bite of a delicious Honey Crisp Apple from Champlain Orchards, the first of the season. What a celebration! Our simple recipe for Cinnamon Apples with Maple Syrup makes the perfect after-school snack, dessert or mid-day pick me up.

Gazpacho Andaluz

2023-08-07T08:23:15-04:00August 7th, 2023|Cooking With VT Fresh|

Recipes often hold a story and can be a window into the past; gazpacho is no exception. Deeply rooted in the history of Andalusia, Spain, gazpacho’s journey from “rags to riches” reflects Spain’s diverse culture and agricultural bounty. From the humble origins of soaked bread to its current celebration of abundance, the star status of gazpacho as the quintessential dish of Andalusia, is well earned. As they say in Spain, “De gazpacho no hay empacho.” translation: there’s never too much gazpacho.

Pan-Roasted Radishes

Radishes are amazing and so much more than a garnish for salad; not convinced, let me try to persuade you. Radishes are most often served raw and have a very distinct peppery, cabbagelike flavor. It is of no surprise that we have strong opinions on this spicy little vegetable. If you enjoy radishes, try our recipe for Pan-Roasted Radishes. If you are radish ambivalent, try our recipe for Pan-Roasted Radishes; if you are of the “not for me” opinion, try our recipe for Pan-Roasted Radishes.
