Pumpkin season is upon us and I wanted to create something seasonal and special, with a modern and unique twist. I love the simple idea of whipping cheese to a creamy spread and topping it deliciously, like my Whipped Feta with Za’atar Roasted Tomatoes. Here I’ve given it a perfect seasonal touch, salty, tangy feta blended with earthy pumpkin. The burnt umber color looks … [Read more...] about Pumpkin Whipped Feta with Dukkah

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
