Give them books and computers. But let's give them onions too and be amazed by their creativity. Thank you @hannafordmkts for sponsoring our cooking club! #foodliteracy #cookingwithkids #rawcornsalad #homemadecorntortillas #storycookingCookingClub

I love making #mendiant because I can pack flavors and intentions in a 2 inch-treat. Here I used #allergenfreechocolate 1) #candiedorangepeel + #driedcranberries + cocoa nibs 2) #peachkernel + red rosebuds and petals + cocoa nibs #storycookingmendiant #storycooking #foodgifts #roundthings

Our #soupoftheweek is #tomatobutternutsquashsoup It's that between season soup, using up all the veggies we put away for the winter. I started by sauteing onions, added about 2 parts of canned tomatoes (the last of our home canning) and 1 part of roasted #wintersquash from the freezer and bring to a simmer. Then I try to build flavors and I taste as I go. This one has smoked paprika, homemade apple cider vinegar, #nutritionalyeast , garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, olive oil, salt and lots of black pepper. #lunchbox #tomatosoup #createpatterns #storycooking #storycookingfamilytop10soups #sopadetomatecomabobora #sopadetomate

#jampies 1 cup of @mainegrains #ryeflour 1 stick of butter 1/4 cup water 1/2 tsp of salt Baked 400F for 25-30 minutes But the butter flour ratio is just a guide. How much fat to use? How much you've got? 4 to 10 tbsp? Good answer. Another example, for a basic crust I go for 5 tbsp of butter and 1 1/4 cups of spelt flour, 1/2 tsp salt. 1/4 cup of liquid like sourdough starter or discard, water, kombucha, egg yolk... So much fun to play. PS: keep dough and ingredients chilled with an all butter crust like this, definitely easier to work with a firm dough. #storycooking #handpies

Soaking and steaming #corngrits is a method that brings me very close to the taste and texture of #braziliancouscous #cuscuz I grew up eating and never stopped eating. Until I found this method, suitcases of "milharina" is all I wanted when people came to visit from Brazil. Now I am able to use local grits we love. For 4 servings of cereal, soak 1.5 cups of grits in 3 cups of water overnight or for 24 hours in the fridge. If you forget there it will be ok longer. When ready to cook, strain the soaked grits, sprinkle with some salt and a tablespoon of Tapioca starch (optional — the starch makes the couscous more compact) There a several ways to steam the yellow corn grits if you do not have a #cuscuzeira ( Couscous pot) You can cook like a do here in this photo, in a steam basket. I put mine inside the pressure cooker and cook for 10-15 minutes, but inside a regular pot works too, just takes longer. Another method, the one my grandma used was to add the corn to a deep plate, wrapped with a clean cloth. The couscous mixture must be facing downwards in a pot with water, but not touching the liquid while it simmers. #storycooking #roundthings #steamedgrits #braziliancouscous #storycookingcuscuz #cuscuznordestino #grits

Oil a pan, slice eggplant into rounds, drizzle olive oil, salt and pepper, top with marinara sauce, oregano, cheese and bake. Meanwhile ponder and appreciate the rounds in our plates with @amy.halloran -- a few circles that delight our lives and that are also never perfect and need not to be. #storycooking #rethinkingperfect #roundthings

I didn't write down what I did in this #sourdough, but I used the #whey leftover from making farmer's cheese, tvorog. It has @mainegrains #rye # whole wheat, @kingarthurflour AP #sesamecrust #storycooking #fermentacaonatural #wildyeat
