Vegetable Marinara – A Very Useful Healthy Sauce

February 28, 2021 by The Runaway Spoon 4 Comments

I cook. A lot. You know that. But I am not always motivated to prepare myself an elaborate meal every day of the week. And I certainly have days when I have been rushing around or testing recipes that do not a meal make (yes, I have had hours in the kitchen producing only brownies and cake, or several different kinds of bread). But I try my best to make my regular, at home … [Read more...] about Vegetable Marinara – A Very Useful Healthy Sauce

Irish Bangers and Mash with Guinness Onion Gravy

March 8, 2020 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Everyone gets a kick out of the rather silly names of some traditional British food names. Spotted Dick. Toad in the Hole. Bubble and Squeak. And Bangers and Mash. The mash part is pretty obvious (mashed potatoes). Bangers are sausages, and the term supposedly comes from a time when cheap sausages would explode in a hot pan making a bang. I love a good plate of bangers and … [Read more...] about Irish Bangers and Mash with Guinness Onion Gravy

Oktoberfest Onion Dip (Beer Caramelized Onion Dip)

I make it with roasted onions, with a hit of bourbon and bacon, a recipe you’ll find in my … [Read more...] about Oktoberfest Onion Dip (Beer Caramelized Onion Dip)

Roasted Butternut and Onion Soup

January 1, 2018 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

One of my favorite grocery innovations of the last few years is the ready availability of pre-cut butternut squash. I love butternut, but peeling and seeding it myself for a quick weeknight meal more trouble than I am generally willing to undertake. So butternut squash dishes used to be a special occasion food for me. But now, so many stores offer peeled and ready to use … [Read more...] about Roasted Butternut and Onion Soup

Creamy Roasted Onion Soup

January 29, 2017 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I absolutely love soup, particularly during the grey days of winter. For me it can be a meal in itself, a side for a sandwich or salad or a starter. Soup is also a great pantry and fridge cleaner, because even the humblest ingredients can be transformed into something special, with a minimum of effort. This recipe is a perfect example, as it was born from an excess of … [Read more...] about Creamy Roasted Onion Soup

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.
