Plenty of fresh pumpkins in local markets

I've been pondering pumpkins the past few days. I had heard there might be a shortage of canned pumpkin, but did not give it much credence. A colleague reported she purchased a whole case of pumpkin to be sure she had enough for the pumpkin rolls that she customarily makes.

    There's something about rice pudding that says cozy.

  • Hearty soup just right for chilly nights

    Now that autumn has arrived with cooler days and chilly nights, my thoughts turn to comfort food. It's time to make a pot of soup that will warm both body and spirit.

    There's no doubt about it. Julia Child is hot.

  • Madeleine a great way to start day

    When I was invited recently to teach at a cooking school in Orleans, France, I began dreaming of all sorts of wonderful dishes I might make. However, Laurence Herve, owner of Atelier-Cuisine de Laurence, adamantly insisted that whatever I choose "must be American!"

  • Pumpkin pleasers

    Fresh pumpkin? Shoppers at local supermarkets are hungry to embrace the season. With childlike grins, they load their carts with one or two large jack-o'-lantern pumpkins from the supply outside the front door.

  • Summer spuds: Time to shake up potato salad

    The origin of potato salad is somewhat murky, but authorities agree that the versions we know became popular in America in the second half of the 19th century.
