Summer Squash and Gruyere Buttermilk Biscuits

August 13, 2023 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

I’ve had a recipe marked for a while for a zucchini drop biscuit. It seemed like a good way to use up one last stray zucchini from the farmers market. It’s a pretty good recipe, nothing special. But it did lead me to the idea of a proper biscuit. I do love a biscuit, and think they are a real treat with special add-ins. I’ve made them with fresh … [Read more...] about Summer Squash and Gruyere Buttermilk Biscuits

Baby Potatoes in Garlic and Thyme Cream

May 8, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

The little baby potatoes I find at the farmers market are perfectly delicious, lovingly grown by local farmers.

My go to has been a classic version, rich with cheese and sour cream, and I adapted that for a pimento cheese version in my first book, Pimento Cheese the Cookbook. Most southerners deal with an overabundance of summer squash, whether it’s from friends who garden or the irresistible urge to buy the locally grown, beautiful sunshine … [Read more...] about Summer Squash and Leek Gratin

Roasted Onion Dip

April 1, 2018 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

Onion dip is a perennial favorite. From my high school days of powdered soup mix and sour cream or the convenience store tubs that found their way into the college dorm fridge, I have always had a soft spot for the creamy, savory classic – particularly with salty ridged chips. I’ve grown up though, and now I make my own fresh spin. I absolutely love a dip made with sweet and … [Read more...] about Roasted Onion Dip

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.
