Snickerdoodles, no idea what that is, but it does sound interesting. A Great post..

This looks delicious! What is Aleppo, though?

Sounds a lovely dish, a nice combination.

2009-09-02T13:13:12.966-07:00

I love the green bags suggestion - like you, Allison, I do the wrap thing, but it doesn't always work.

This was a great post - I know the feeling TOO. WELL.

I'm slow roasting a bunch of stuff right now, and planning on making pesto tonight because the basil I picked up from share this morning will not be long for this world.

I also do a fair amount of blanching/freezing, but I have a big freezer, which I'm guessing you might not.

Thanks for the tip! I've always wondered about tho...

Thanks for the tip! I've always wondered about those... seemed too good to be true- but you've sold me. Right now, I keep my greens wrapped in a wet dish towel in the fridge. It works surprisingly well, as long as you remember to keep the towel wet. As soon as it dries out, they're finished, and remembering things is not my strong suit. :)

We have a farm share as well, through Needle Lane Farm. As far as stuff wilting, we've found that those produce green bags (https://www.greenbags.com/) do indeed work and are the greatest things ever for keeping your farm shares fresh.

@Katie- your street food experience sound a little more exciting than mine--Bacon-wrapped hot dogs sound perfect for that occasion.

@Strazar- That's way cool! I had no idea. The Bon Appetit article I link to is about street food in Portland, OR--another place I never would have guessed had such established street vendors. We need to round up some friend for Pilar and the hot dog guys!

2009-08-27T08:49:45.164-07:00

The food cart vendors have been on the State Street Mall in Madison since at least the early 70s. They were part of the initial felafel wave and have morphed multiple times since then. Thanks for the article. Makes me homesick ;-)

Yummy-I usually think of bacon wrapped hot dogs (that seemed like a good idea) sold on the trek back from Tijuana to San Diego that we purchased after nights of drinking. Your descriptions sound much better!!

Hi,
I'm from Ann Arbor. Love your blog, it was recommended to me by a mutual friend. Wanted to ask you a couple of questions about it but didn't see a way to email you directly. Would you be willing to contact me? julie.michigan@gmail.com

Oh, I'm embarrassed to say that they rotted in that bowl on top of the microwave because for as much as I liked looking at them, I gave up on 'em pretty quick. I'd love to give your recipes a try this summer!

2009-01-30T14:33:00.000-08:00

What did you decide to do with the quince? My father in law has a tree and I make huge batches of jam and jelly. Then I bake and poach some but I'm running out of ideas to use up the quantity I get.

2009-01-30T14:20:00.000-08:00

I have to try this. I have a bunch of home dried tomatoes to use up and I like the idea of the walnuts in it.

2009-01-30T13:24:00.000-08:00

This looks great! I make a similar soup with kale but I love the taste of parsley. I have to give it a try.

I don't have any mother to spare right now...but you could get some locally. Check out this blog for some Detroit area sources.

You could also buy some organic unpasteurized vinegar like Braggs and use that - check out this blog for more info on what to do

Unfortunately, you won't have enough mother to give away at Christmas - if you started today, using either method, you're probably a couple months off from being able to have enough to give away.

I made this exact dish back in October, and I couldn't agree more about your assessment: more cauliflower and a kick, please!

Way to go, Boyfriend! It's hard to date a gal who is a whiz in the kitchen. Pretty much every guy I have ever dated has told me this. But we secretly really like to be shooed out of the kitchen and let our men chop, mix, and cook for us.
