Around the World in 80 Plates: Lyon, France

Posted on May 14, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

Moving right along on our culinary world tour, our next stop will be in Lyon, France! Although I’ve never been to Lyon, I have visited Paris, and am rather familiar with one French specialty in particular… Pastry! As soon as I learned of this destination, there was no doubt in my mind that another grand [...] Continue reading →

White as Springtime Snow

Posted on May 9, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

White gazpacho has been something of an enigma to me ever since I first learned of its existence. Thick, rich, and creamy, it seemed the absolute antithesis of the light but bold, veggie-packed tomato gazpacho I already knew and loved. Both are chilled soups, but the similarities ended there. Like the differences between spring and [...] Continue reading →

Around the World in 80 Plates: London, England

Posted on May 7, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

Roots firmly planted in cozy New England, I hardly fancy myself a traveler, but who could be content to leave so much of the world unexplored? So many cultures to discover, beautiful places to visit, and yes, food to eat. Almost every year, I’ve been lucky enough to make one journey out of my cozy [...] Continue reading →

¡Ay Dios Mío, es Cinco de Mayo!

Posted on May 5, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

For a day commemorating a Mexican military victory back in the 1860′s, you’d think that Cinco de Mayo would be a bigger deal in Mexico than the states. An excuse to drink beer, make merry, and eat greasy tacos, the truth is that the holiday is as American as apple pie. It’s hardly our only [...] Continue reading →

Let Them Eat Vegan!

A title like that truly needs no further introduction, but I still can’t resist gilding the lily a bit. To anyone in the market for a well-rounded cookbook with delicious ideas from breakfast through dessert, all developed with an eye towards wholesome ingredients, there isn’t a title I can recommend more highly than Dreena Burton‘s [...] Continue reading →

Fiddler on the Plate

Posted on April 30, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

Wild edibles can be elusive creatures; hiding where you least expect them, and absent where they aught to be found. A hunt worth pursuing, it just takes a bit more effort to get dinner on the table if foraging is involved. Luckily, here in New England, the forests are ripe with fiddlehead ferns, and I [...] Continue reading →

A Recipe is a Terrible Thing to Waste

Posted on April 27, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

New cookbooks are born every day and the internet is flooded in a sea of recipes, free and for profit, good and bad, garnering raves and rants alike. Still, it seems that the hunger for more can never be satisfied, and the quest to continue creating is never ending. For as many recipes as I [...] Continue reading →

Out Of This World Vegan Feasts

Posted on April 25, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

“You always hurt the one you love,” or so goes the pervasive pop music refrain, but truer words were never spoken- Especially when it comes to cookbooks. Tidal waves of new books continue to sweep in across the foundation of vegan cooking, which is great for exposure and variety, but not always such a positive [...] Continue reading →

The Drunken Grape

Posted on April 18, 2012 by Hannah (BitterSweet)

It’s reasonable to expect a scorching summer ahead, at the rate the temperature is rising already. When was the last time you could even dream of donning shorts and flip flops come mid-April? Though it may be a sign of worse things to come, but right now, this sudden taste of the tropics is a [...] Continue reading →
