Pumpkin Polenta with Italian Sausage and Pumpkin Ragu

October 13, 2024 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

At this time of year, pumpkin everything is everywhere. It’s a little overdone in my opinion. When it comes to food, so much falls into the pumpkin spice category, which really isn’t about pumpkin at all – just those spices we associate with pumpkin pie. But pumpkin is actually a lovely thing to cook with and I really love it in savory applications, which I think get lost in … [Read more...] about Pumpkin Polenta with Italian Sausage and Pumpkin Ragu

Fall is busy. School starts, sports are back, activities all around.  And in the midst of the crazy, we all love comfort food as a chill starts to fill the air.

A Dutch baby is always so much fun to serve. Partly because the name is so cute, but also because the puffy batter is easy to make and can be taken in so many different flavor directions. For years, I only ever had sweet Dutch babies for breakfast or brunch, maybe filled with fruit and berries and drizzled with maple syrup. I soon decided they are the perfect vehicle for … [Read more...] about Parmesan Dutch Baby with Roasted Tomatoes, Arugula and Basil Vinaigrette

Comté Cheese Tart

April 7, 2024 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

There is a restaurant in London that I love called Noble Rot (there are three locations). I have been there for dinner a few times and love the creative food. I didn’t know they served lunch until one day I was in the area looking for another restaurant which turned out to be closed. Walking back up the street, I fell over. Just face planted on the pavement for no apparent … [Read more...] about Comté Cheese Tart

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.
