Chimichurri Corn Casserole

July 31, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Fresh, in season corn is simply magnificent. I buy bags and bags of it at the farmers market, much of which I eat straight from the cob, some I cut off and freeze and of course, I adore corn pudding, like my fantastic Caramelized Corn Pudding. I’ve blended it in to biscuits, stirred it into risotto, sauced it for pasta. In fact, you can search corn in the … [Read more...] about Chimichurri Corn Casserole

I’m posting these delicious cheddar shortbread bars in time for St. Patrick’s Day, because I think the parsley has a festive look of shamrocks.

This dish is really simple to prepare – a whir in the … [Read more...] about Summer Herb Butter Shrimp

Shrimp Ravigote

May 14, 2017 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

I am recipe developer by trade, so friends and family often ask me to recreate favorite dishes from local restaurants or food businesses. I always try, with varying degrees of success. These requests become more frequent, and more urgent, when a place closes. A favorite, classic lunch place in Memphis closed not too long ago, and several friends have since asked me how to make … [Read more...] about Shrimp Ravigote

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.
