Cheese Board Chowder

December 12, 2021 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

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

Calvados and Hazelnut Camembert

Fall gets busy. I know. It’s easy to forgo a nice little appetizer before a festive meal, or just throw some cheese and crackers on a plate (nothing wrong with that).

There a couple of places around town that serve these – toasted or pressed or cold, on brioche, ciabatta or baguette.

When I was planning out soup month on The Spoon, I was at first … [Read more...] about Camembert and Apple Soup

Baked Camembert with Pear, Cranberry and Walnut Relish

November 4, 2012 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

Baked brie with fruity toppings used to be all the rage, and the real height of sophisticated appetizers.  But they seem to have fallen out of fashion a little.  I rarely see them at parties or in cookbooks anymore.  Perhaps the trend for simple artsy charcuterie trays have taken their place, or appetizers served on individual spoons.  But just because a dish isn’t trendy … [Read more...] about Baked Camembert with Pear, Cranberry and Walnut Relish

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.
