The popular Food Network show, Best Thing I Ever Ate, featured an entry from Iron Chef Cat Cora for the lobster pot pie at Acadame. See the episode clip here: https://www.foodnetwork.com/shows/the-best-thing-i-ever-ate/videos/reinvented-classics Before Acadame closed, we went and tried this amazing pot pie and were sad that we couldn’t get it on our most recent tripContinue reading “Copy-cat Acadame Lobster Pot Pie”

Pickled Red Onions
We always have a jar of pickled red onions in our fridge (see what else we keep on hand at all times in our Pantry Staples blog post). And on those very few times we don’t, we regret it. They are great on so many dishes, including burgers, falafel wraps, salads, and burritos. Make yourselfContinue reading “Pickled Red Onions”
Copy-cat Dishoom Chocolate Chai
During our trip to London, we had the most amazing beverage at an Indian restaurant, Dishoom: a chocolate chai. All the best parts of a hot chocolate and a chai tea combined into a single drink. After that meal, we were in search of how to replicate the drink at home, and stopped by BoroughContinue reading “Copy-cat Dishoom Chocolate Chai”
Pot Pie
If you grew up eating Marie Callender’s frozen chicken pot pies, you may have the same soft spot I do when it comes to pot pie. Rich and filling, and just what you want on a colder day. Of course, those pot pies are not cheap, but you can make a much cheaper and better-for-youContinue reading “Pot Pie”
Pork and Cabbage Stir Fry with Pea Shoots
When we got our CSA from Pete’s Greens and saw that we were given carrots, cabbage, and shoots, we knew we had to make this simple, yet tasty stir fry dish. We had never used pea shoots before, but really enjoyed the earthy taste and crispy, fresh crunch they brought to the dish! In aContinue reading “Pork and Cabbage Stir Fry with Pea Shoots”
Waffles
Oh no! You really want waffles but you’ve run out of waffle mix. What to do? Make them from scratch, of course! Waffles are very simple to make and use ingredients you should already have on hand. (Check out what ingredients we always keep on hand here.) These waffles are crispy on the outside, fluffyContinue reading “Waffles”
Paneer Tikka Masala
Indian is one of those foods that we just cannot get enough of. It somehow never gets old, and always hits the spot, whether it’s summer or winter. We have found a few classic go-to Indian dishes that we loved so much, we had to figure out how to make it on our own (becauseContinue reading “Paneer Tikka Masala”
Turnip, Kale, Walnut Soup
Does it sound good? Probably not, but let me tell you, it is delicious. Here in Vermont, the Gilfeather Turnip is the State vegetable, and we have found some interesting ways to incorporate it into dishes. Even if you think this soup isn’t for you, give it a try – you will be pleasantly surprisedContinue reading “Turnip, Kale, Walnut Soup”
Raspberry Sweet Tea
Nothing says summer like some homemade raspberry sweet tea. It’s cold, refreshing, and well, sweet. What more could you ask for? Maybe a little alcohol? We’ve got that covered too. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and 1½ cup water over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar has completely dissolved. Add in raspberries to simple syrupContinue reading “Raspberry Sweet Tea”
Swordfish Tacos with Mango Salsa
A summery, light-yet-filling pescatarian meal that is perfect for lunch or dinner. They are a little messy (drippy), but so delicious you won’t even care! While optional, we highly recommend prepping the mango salsa a day ahead of time to let the flavors marinate. All you have to do is combine the mango, tomato, cilantro,Continue reading “Swordfish Tacos with Mango Salsa”
