We were in Adare, Ireland with very dear friends. Mark and I decided to make dinner, so I bought a cookbook. Mark and I sat down on a park bench while the others were sightseeing and decided what to make for dinner. I picked out this recipe for Root Vegetable Cobbler to go with the…

Scalloped Potato Gratin

November 22, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

This Scalloped Potato Gratin is the perfect special dinner, ok, any dinner potato. It has everything I love; cream, potatoes, thyme, freshly grated nutmeg, and Gruyere cheese. They are so creamy and the flavors are intense! When I finally found a vintage gratin dish that I had been looking for such a long time, I…

Zucchini and Pine Nut Fritters

September 29, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

My favorite way to eat zucchini is in chocolate cake, but Zucchini and Pine Nut Fritters come in as my second favorite. The zucchini is grated raw, which preserves the fresh, green flavor. They are a lot like Potato Pancakes but with a softer interior, the fritters get their extra texture from the pine nuts…

Sake Fried Rice

May 19, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

I have been looking for a really good Sake Fried Rice recipe. So this is a combination of an old and a new recipe. Our friends own a Sake brewery, so I wanted to make sure I include their Blue Current Sake in the recipe. After you cook the rice, chop the scallions and the…

Guacamole

May 5, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews 1 Comment · Print recipe ·

Strong, simple fresh flavors are the key to a really good Guacamole. I only use tomatoes as a garnish, so they do not water down the guacamole. Sometimes, I put a Cracked Black Pepper Garnish (recipe attached) on the tomatoes. Ripe avocados are also key to the texture and flavor of a good guacamole. I…

Smashed Potatoes with Chives

April 7, 2017 By Peter 2 Comments · Print recipe ·

I made these Smashed Potatoes with Chives for a dinner with friends and they were serving steak. I needed to bring something that would transport easily and that I could finish when I got to their house. They are crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.  They are delicious with beef, lamb and…

I was looking for an easy (non-yeast) Soda Bread to go with a Corned Beef and Cabbage dinner at our dear friend’s, Cindy and Nick. I was also making a bread pudding with dried fruits for dessert, and I wanted the bread to be simple, yet authentic. This White Soda Bread is so moist, so…

Sausage Herb Stuffing

November 18, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

  This Sausage Herb Stuffing is another recipe from Grandma Toots. I have it hand written in my book, there are no measurements, just ingredients.  I taste tested these amounts and it tastes just like Grandma’s did. Isn’t it interesting how much the smells and the taste of food reminds us of our childhood? I chop…

No Cook Cranberry Orange Relish

November 11, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

  I make this No Cook Cranberry Orange Relish for Thanksgiving every year, no matter where I am. It is fresh, and as tart as you want it to be (less sugar, more tart). The color is beautiful on the table and I like it so much better than the canned cranberry sauce, no offense…
