New Kitchen, New Server

My writing here has been sparse, but I hope to pick it up. We moved a few months ago and we are finally starting to feel settled in. We are enjoying having guests in our new place and it’s renewing my interest in trying new recipes and writing here. We have already had a few …

Early Bird Ranch

Early Bird Ranch is a small local chicken ranch in Pescadero. The chickens are raised outdoors in low-density groups, and are fed a pasture-based diet. The most important part of our operation is the mobility of these pasture shelters. As the chickens grow their waste can become a serious liability. Keeping them in one place …

Comment on Roast Veggies for Later by Kathy

This is a great blog! Joell had told me about it awhile ago, and I'm finally getting around to reading it. I love the recipes and your philosophy. We were recently in Point Reyes and they had put together a poster that has all of Michael Pollan's words to eat by (an eater's manifesto). It is great as it starts with "eat food, not too much, mostly plants" and goes on and lists several more. I bought it and plan to frame it and put it in our kitchen. Anyway, I wanted to say, thank you for putting together a blog that is useful and interesting! Kathy (Pescadero)

Roast Veggies for Later

Here's a great tip. Roast your veggies and then stick them in the freezer for later. All you have to do is heat them up! After the veggies have been roasted, they will keep their texture and flavor. They will also keep in the fridge like this for a few days. it makes it easy to throw together a quick dinner later when you don't have time to do all the chopping and prep.

The method: rub it, smoke it, braise it and pull …
