chouxettes: Mercado Central de Valencia
http://chouxettes.blogspot.com/2011/08/mercado-central-de-valencia.html
Monday, August 15, 2011. Mercado Central de Valencia. Every town I visit, I try to pop in at the local market. I find, it is the fastest way to familiarize myself with the local foods and kitchen practices of any given town. I am always amazed with the variety of the products and the enthusiasm of the vendors. In theory, markets should all operate on the same basic principles but in practice, it seems that every market is truly original. Mercado Central de Valencia. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

chouxettes: November 2011
http://chouxettes.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 8, 2011. September Weekend in Catalonia. The sudden snowstorm last week caught me by surprise. I found myself wholly unprepared for the onslaught of sleet and wet snow. Tromping around Midtown in a pair of canvas sneakers, I was longing for hot September weekends in the Catalan countryside. It seems almost cruel now to flip through my photos, when out my window, the changing leaves are blowing wildly in the wind. Links to this post. September Weekend in Catalonia. Devon and Michelle, Mi...

chouxettes: June 2011
http://chouxettes.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 25, 2011. Last November, fresh off of six weeks of intensive Spanish lessons, I tested my new skills at my first Barcelona dinner party. Seated with eight other guests around a large wooden table and a generous dinner of wild mushroom risotto and braised chard, I listened to the excited chatter. The conversations moved quickly and fluidly. I strung together snippets of phrases and pieces of dialogue, my tongue stilled by their effortless chatter. The real surprise of the excursion was that...

chouxettes: October 2011
http://chouxettes.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 12, 2011. Since returning, I have spent many afternoons trying to organize the room: wedging books into shelves and jamming clothes under the bed. Sorting through my digital folders, I found this post from last autumn that I never put up. It is amazing how much changes in a year. Wild mushrooms are still a priority but perhaps not as important as securing that elusive full-time job or a perfect apartment. It would have been easy to make this a purely Spanish dish, stuffed with wild Cat...

chouxettes: July 2011
http://chouxettes.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 22, 2011. Last year around this time I half put together this recipe for chouxettes. then time went by and it was past blueberry season, and I decided to hold off. This recipe is meant for this time of year, when you can get fresh, inexpensive blueberries. It’s pretty festive too, if you are into 4th of July themed foods. You can double the recipe and make it in a 9”x13”, as pictured here. 190; Cup Sugar. 188; Cup Soft Butter. 189; C Milk. Sift together and stir in:. 2 tsp Baking Powder.

chouxettes: Fried Zucchini Blossoms
http://chouxettes.blogspot.com/2011/08/fried-zucchini-blossoms.html
Friday, August 5, 2011. Though the vendor gave me a full tutorial on zucchini blossom preparation and a number of good ideas, a wave of panic set in as soon as I entered my kitchen. I scanned the internet for assistance; but it only brought a more intense wave of panic. Do I have female or male zucchini blossoms? What exactly do plant reproductive organs look like and do I need to remove them before deep-frying? Serves 4 (at 3 a piece). 400 g carbonated water. 189; tsp salt. Fill one large pot with oil&#...
