Holy Mackerel

July 13, 2023

Some years I get lucky fishing from a kayak off Islesboro Maine. This year was one of those years, no more than a minute after dropping a line I had 3 mackerel! There used to be a lot more when I was a kid but great to see there are some left. We used to

Lettuce Enjoy

It might be hard to tell but this is a big head of lettuce. Bought a six-pack of seedlings at Brighams Farm in Concord and they really took off.

Soup

February 5, 2022

Last of the butternut squash from this past summer’s crop, amazing how easy it is to grow and sweet and keeps well. This pot is made with coconut milk and ginger with some nutritional yeast and homegrown oregano on top plus salt and pepper. Pretty simple and tasty.

Popcorn

February 16, 2021

For about 4 years now, I’ve been making popcorn with an air popper. I’ve experimented with several recipes. This one has a small amount of butter, olive oil, and lemon juice plus toppings of Bays spices, nutritional yeast, salt, and confectioner’s sugar. Under the popcorn is a sandwich, so you need to eat through the

Sun Gold

January 29, 2021

Sun gold cherry tomatoes on the back porch with fresh-picked basil ready for eating or canning. Usually, there are too many tomatoes so canning is where most of the crop goes. There might be some other cherry tomatoes mixed in here than just Sun Gold’s though Sun Gold is the main crop now since nothing

Fish Fry

January 16, 2021

Haddock, potatoes, cilantro, and homemade tartar sauce. The haddock at the fish store is fresh from Iceland or some north sea area, one of the better fresh semi-local fish.

Smoothie

July 28, 2020

This smoothie is made with pea tendril micro greens, raspberries, almond milk, peanut butter, and protein powder. This is a favorite breakfast smoothie after going for a ride around the island up on Islesboro. Leave around 7:00 and back by 8:30, this smoothie hits the spot.

Pesto

July 20, 2019

Basil from the garden mixed in a Cuisinart along with garlic, Asiago, pine nuts, olive oil, and lemon. If you want the vegan version use nutritional yeast instead of Asiago and if you can’t swing the high price of pine nuts, walnuts taste good as well. Typically Sweet Genovese Basil is grown around here. It

Raspberries

July 20, 2019

This is a little fresh raspberries from the garden and yogurt with a couple of fresh mint leaves from the garden too. The Cousins Community garden has a raspberry co-op where people chip in with weeding, pruning, and fertilizing as well as other tasks. It’s a productive crop compared to the blueberries nearby that are

Hutch Fest

July 30, 2016

Each summer we go to an island in Maine (Islesboro) and dig for clams and cook them up on the beach. It’s a little tricky to time the tide so it doesn’t wash the fire away while still leaving plenty of time to dig for the soft shell clams. The other tricky part is washing

Egg + Kale

February 19, 2016

An old standby recipe, good in the winter – egg on top of kale on top of rye toast and hummus with shallots and goat cheese sprinkled on. The kale is lightly cooked stovetop with the egg cracked on top.
