Spinach and White Bean Dip

by Cathy Erway | posted in: Beans, gluten-free, Recipes, Sides & Salads, vegetarian | 5

I’ve warmed up to baked, savory dips lately, the kind you schmear onto a cracker or crisped piece of bread at parties. I love cracking the golden crust like a creme brulee, revealing an oozing interior and steam. On Thanksgiving, I mustered my first-ever artichoke dip, a simple concoction using tangy Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise or cream cheese. Last weekend, it was this creamy blend of white beans and spinach, pulsed just enough to create a velvety texture but … Read More

Sunchokes with Radicchio, Pomegranate Seeds & Pink Peppercorn Dressing

by Cathy Erway | posted in: gluten-free, Recipes, Sides & Salads, vegetarian | 1

Crisp, sweet cabbages, nutty, gnarly-looking roots — who said winter wasn’t a good season for salads? I thought I’d give myself an extra-special treat this morning, since my birthday is around the corner (can you believe I’m turning thirty-one?!). So instead of the new boots I’ve been ogling, I went for some sunchokes at the farmers market, because they’re charmingly rustic-looking, too.

Butternut Squash & Apple Soup

by Cathy Erway | posted in: gluten-free, Recipes, Soups & Stews, vegetarian | 3

I decorate my home with food, not flowers — a bowl of peaches or tomatoes to grab from in the summer, jaunty new herbs like mint in the spring, and a fetching squash of some type to plunk on the coffee table in fall and winter. A great pile of apples often paints the scene, from mid-September to about May. If you’re like me, you’ve probably found yourself equipped with a good squash and clutch of apples from a recent … Read More

Green Bean Casserole with Caramelized Onions, Parmesan and Creme Fraiche

by Cathy Erway | posted in: gluten-free, Recipes, Sides & Salads, vegetarian | 3

Sometimes you’ve just got to eat something ooey, gooey, and rich. That doesn’t mean it can’t be vegetables, layered with all that good stuff and little else. It occurs to me now that whoever drafted that recipe for green bean casserole and sold it to millions via labels on condensed soup cans was probably trying to come up with a “healthier” alternative to most casserole recipes. In this recipe, I’ve probably found the most decadent way of preparing a side … Read More

Braised Turnips with Leeks and Bacon

by Cathy Erway | posted in: gluten-free, Meat & Poultry, Recipes, Sides & Salads | 4

Probably one of the last foods I hear talked about what when talking about Thanksgiving are turnips. It’s probably one of the last foods you’ll hear about, period. But it’s something I see in so much variety this time of year at the farmers market, and looking into the turnip’s many virtues, this is not so surprising. They’re an exceptionally useful and easy crop, adaptable to many climates and types of soil, and able to be left in the ground … Read More

Kuri Squash “Steaks” and Eggs

by Cathy Erway | posted in: Breakfast & Eggs, gluten-free, Recipes, Sides & Salads, vegetarian | 11

Winter squashes can seem intimidating to cook. They have thick, hardened skins often scuffed with dirt, and their dense flesh can make for quite a dangerous job of cutting it if you’re not careful with a big knife. Their seed pockets are stringy and stick to your fingers. They take a long time to soften — or do they? Not when using these red kuri squashes, in thin slices for instance.

Roasted Cauliflower and Romanesco Salad with Pears and Maple Vinaigrette

by Cathy Erway | posted in: gluten-free, Recipes, Sides & Salads, vegan, vegetarian | 8

Just because cool weather and fall produce have arrived doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a good salad. I’m not sure if there’s anything that mandates a “salad” but the simple treatment of fresh ingredients, and the clean feeling you get from eating it. This salad, for instance, is served warm thanks to crisp, lightly roasted cauliflower and romanesco florets — and it has no lettuce greens. However, I like to roast the leaves from these brassicas along with them until … Read More

Broiled Bluefish with Romano Beans and Corn-Kimchi Salad

by Cathy Erway | posted in: gluten-free, Recipes, Seafood | 3

I don’t get the hesitation over darker, oilier, “fishier” sort of fish. Bluefish, mackerel, herring, sardines — these are the flavorful dark meats to bland white meat chicken (of the sea). If you’re one who prefers full-flavored, juicy cuts like chicken thighs or pork shoulder instead of loin, you might find common ground in these highly undervalued types of fish. Then again, the fillet of bluefish I broiled here was so fresh, it tasted clean and just faintly of the … Read More

Spanish Rice with Pinto Beans & Sweet Pepper Salsa

by Cathy Erway | posted in: Beans, gluten-free, Recipes, vegan, vegetarian | 4

I couldn’t decide whether to cook the crisp cubanelle peppers I’d gotten from the market or chop them up to serve somehow raw. So I went with the best of both worlds, softening the pale-green pieces along with onions, garlic and fresh tomato for a Spanish rice infused with chicken stock, and mixed the remainder with fresh lime juice, onion and mint leaves for a refreshing topping. Yeah, I’ve had a serious craving for Mexican food lately.

Eggplant Caponata, For Safekeeping

by Cathy Erway | posted in: gluten-free, Recipes, Sides & Salads, vegan, vegetarian | 9

They say a photo’s the best way to capture a moment in time. But I tend to think of mason jars when it comes to keeping some of my favorite ones. Here is the moment: I’m rushing through a not-very-bustling strip of the Greenmarket in Carroll Gardens, adjacent to a park, and in the late afternoon. It’s not a market I go to often, but I’m making use of my chance location by picking up various things for various projects … Read More
