Savory Vidalia Onion Upside Down Cakes

May 20, 2018 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I’ve never been completely sure what to title this recipe. They are more than muffins, but this is based on an old recipe I found in an English cookbook where they were called dumplings, but I don’t really think that translates. There’s a biscuit-y batter, but turn them upside down and there is a pretty and sweet onion surprise. Muffins, cakes, dumplings, upside down surprise, … [Read more...] about Savory Vidalia Onion Upside Down Cakes

Roasted Onion Dip

April 1, 2018 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

Onion dip is a perennial favorite.

The origin of the name “coddle” is rather cloudy, but apparently it was a favorite of authors from Jonathan Swift to James Joyce.

Mustard Creamed Pearl Onions

November 18, 2015 by The Runaway Spoon 2 Comments

Many years ago, when I first started cooking a big Thanksgiving meal, I followed the suggested menu of some magazine or cookbook to the letter, despite existing family traditions or personal preferences. One of the dishes on the list of traditional Thanksgiving fare was creamed onions, which I had never had before. My family had never had them either and didn’t really … [Read more...] about Mustard Creamed Pearl Onions

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.
