Shrimp with Lemon & Capers; herons

Thyme for Cooking Posted on January 13, 2021 by KatieJanuary 13, 2021
Shrimp and Gnocchi

I love gnocchi. I have actually made it, but since I am now lazy and the stuff in the store is pretty good, I buy it. A few years ago I discovered skillet gnocchi. It doesn’t need to be boiled first, and, as I normally sauté it anyway, I switched. A few weeks ago the store was out of the skillet gnocchi, so I bought my old favorite, traditional gnocchi. … Continue reading →

Ham & Butternut Squash Skillet; play time

Thyme for Cooking Posted on January 10, 2021 by KatieJanuary 10, 2021
Ham, Pasta & Squash

We didn’t have our usual big ham roast for the holidays this year. There were 2 reasons, actually…. the hams come from England and between Brexit and the pandemic, getting anything from the U.K. was not reliable. We still had a lot of lamb in our freezer. Many people think the best part of the turkey is the leftovers (I’m one of those people). I also think the best part … Continue reading →

Mustard-Glazed Carrots; more carrots

Thyme for Cooking Posted on January 8, 2021 by KatieJanuary 8, 2021
Mustard Carrots

Carrots are a neglected vegetable. They’re a last resort vegetable – always in the fridge to be used in case of emergency, then forgotten about. When remembered they get cut up, tossed in a bowl of water to be resuscitated, and nibbled on when one can’t find anything better. It’s rather sad, really…. Carrots are a useful, nutritious vegetable that really should be given more respect. They can go into … Continue reading →

Pork Chops and Onions, Instant Pot

Thyme for Cooking Posted on January 6, 2021 by KatieJanuary 6, 2021
Pork Chops, Instant Pot

I have been somewhat hesitant about using my Instant Pot for cooking dinner. I have happily used it to cook spaghetti squash and apple sauce and all sorts of dried beans. I’m using it 2 or 3 times a week for those things. But I seem to be avoiding making a main course for dinner. It could be because if I screw it up we’d end up having omelets. I … Continue reading →

Breakfast in Bed Ideas – and great breakfast food

Thyme for Cooking Posted on January 5, 2021 by KatieJanuary 6, 2021

I love breakfast. I just don’t particularly love it first thing in the morning. I have friends whose partners regularly bring them a cup of hot coffee or tea for them to sip in bed. I’m too impatient. I want to be up and out and see what the day is like. Everyone in my family (that I know of) crawls out of bed, throws on a robe and sits … Continue reading →

Kitchen equipment to consider

Thyme for Cooking Posted on January 4, 2021 by KatieJanuary 4, 2021

Before Christmas I was looking for a recipe for a dried cranberry bread (thinking I wouldn’t be able to find fresh cranberries). The recipe called for ‘a stick of butter’. I thought to myself: who writes a recipe like that anymore – and how much butter is in a ‘stick’? I can see handing that recipe to a friend, but putting it on a food blog for the world to … Continue reading →

Braised Lamb with Butternut Squash and Potatoes; rough morning

Thyme for Cooking Posted on January 3, 2021 by KatieJanuary 3, 2021
Braised Lamb & Potatoes

Last winter was very mild. I only recall 2 or 3 mornings with frost on the ground for our morning walks. This winter is more like…. winter. Not only is there frost, the water in the cat’s dish freezes solid overnight. Which means the weather is perfect for slow braises that cook themselves while I sit by the fire. Since it’s our house, and there are still squashes in the … Continue reading →
