Savory Oat Skirlie

January 23, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

I had a little cookbook years ago titled something like A Little Book of Scottish Recipes. I assume it must have been a gift or maybe I picked it up in a gift shop on a trip to Scotland. I don’t know what happened to it, but I don’t seem to own it anymore. It had a recipe for skirlie (though honestly, I’d forgotten the name) and it became a regular dinner for me when I was … [Read more...] about Savory Oat Skirlie

Chai Caramel Swirled Brownies

January 16, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Make no mistake, these are some decadent brownies, not for the faint of heart. But we could all use a little indulgence when winter sets in. And these are, to me, a sort of winter brownie. A classic, deep fudge-y chocolate with a rich caramel swirl, warmed up with the spices redolent of a cup of chai tea.

The holiday entertaining season inevitably means cheese boards. I spread of nice cheese and crackers, maybe a few nuts or fruit, has always been a go to for parties, but in the last few years the elaborate cheese and charcuterie board trend has really exploded. And I am all for it. I love cheese, and really there is no easier way to impress guests than by serving a beautifully … [Read more...] about Cheese Board Chowder

Tomato Sablés

December 5, 2021 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Some time ago, I went a little overboard in a gourmet food shop, buying up all sorts of little French and Italian goodies – the kind of things that tend to linger on a shelf waiting for the “right” time to use them. More often than not, they go bad before the “right” time comes. I bought a tiny little tube with tomato shortbread batons from France. Only after I left the store … [Read more...] about Tomato Sablés

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.
