Fig, Brown Butter and Hazelnut Tart

August 2, 2020 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I await fig season each summer with such eager anticipation. I get to the farmers market first thing on Saturday morning, making a beeline to my favorite fig vendor to snap up as many as there are available. My first task is making Fig, Bourbon and Vanilla Bean Jam, a favorite of my friends and family. I hold a few back to slice and eat drizzled with honey or wrapped in … [Read more...] about Fig, Brown Butter and Hazelnut Tart

Cauliflower, Hazelnut and Brown Butter Soup

January 6, 2019 by The Runaway Spoon 3 Comments

I like cauliflower, but I am not obsessed with putting it to all sorts of uses. I don’t pizza crust it or rice it or make bread with it. I like cauliflower for itself, not for how it can trick me into thinking I’m eating something else – something perceived to be better. Food shouldn’t involve fraud.

Banana Brown Butter Bars

That is to … [Read more...] about Banana Brown Butter Bars

Brown Butter Bubble Bread

September 30, 2018 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

I like to call this bubble bread, particularly with the alliterative use of browned butter, but some people call it monkey bread. The sweet breakfast version was always a treat when I was a kid – I had a friend whose mom made it after sleepovers - but that version used canned biscuit dough. It never really occurred to me that you could do it from scratch until a few years ago. … [Read more...] about Brown Butter Bubble Bread

Caramelized Corn Pudding

July 23, 2017 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I talk often here about how I come about recipes, and this one has a story with it too. A friend and I were eating at a popular local restaurant and I told her about the amazing creamed corn dish they sometimes make (sadly not on the menu that day). This led to a larger discussion of corn preparations, and she told me her husband couldn’t stop raving about a corn pudding he had … [Read more...] about Caramelized Corn Pudding

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.
