Keeping my promise to update posts from the first two years of The Perfect Pantry, before I photographed the food I cooked, Kathy and I recently recreated three dishes that have one thing in common: they've fallen out of regular rotation in my kitchen and I can't imagine why. I've also updated the links in these posts, which feature powdered ginger, pepper and baking soda.
'Tis the season for comforting food, the food that makes you feel like snuggling under a blanket in front of a fire on a snowy winter night, with your e-reader and your cats. Roast chicken and potato pancakes and applesauce and soup: nothing comforts more than these dishes, cooked simply, like grandmothers would make them.
In the early days of The Perfect Pantry, I didn't know how to photograph the food I cooked. Keeping a promise to myself, and to you, I've been updating posts from the first two years, a few recipes at a time, adding new photos and repairing links that no longer go anywhere. This update's recipes highlight all-purpose flour, canned tomatoes, lentils and ground cloves.
Slowly but steadily, I've been time-traveling through the early days of The Perfect Pantry, updating posts, tweaking recipes, fixing links, and adding photos of the food I cooked in the days before I photographed the food I cooked.
In the early days of The Perfect Pantry, I didn't know how to photograph the food I cooked. Keeping a promise to myself, and to you, I've been going back to update posts from the first two years, a few recipes at a time, adding new photos and repairing links that no longer go anywhere.
This month's updates feature reduced-sodium soy sauce, dried fruit, and white whole wheat flour.
