Currently lovin' My 5 Spices, 50 Dishes cookbook (still!), my CSA box from Eatwell Farms, the super-addictive Indian-style yogurt I just invented, root vegtables, kombucha, vegan cupcakes with vegan buttercream frosting, a fridge full of leftovers.

About me
I read cookbooks in bed like novels and take dates to the all-night supermarket. I love to travel and all my trips end up being mostly about people and food. My home cooking is mainly influenced by Asian and local California flavors and ingredients. I've been a vegetarian since I was 15, and these days a lot of my cooking leans all the way into vegan. I spent a year as my mother's macrobiotic cook when she had cancer and I am fascinated by food-as-medicine and the many ways in which food influences health. I am gluten-sensitive, but I love to bake so much I think it will be a while before I'm ready for a gluten-free lifestyle. My food-attention these days is focused in two main areas: Simplicity (maybe not a four-course, three-hour, use every pot in the house meal every night) and Local (I am gearing up to try a period of time eating only local food). I'm also recently injured in both arms and wrists, and recovery is not on the near horizon, so there may be big changes in how I can cook, which is a challenge I'm both scared and excited to meet.

RE: Rum Pot...You've got it, my dear :) You never get the same flavours from one year to the next....and it almost kills you to keep adding fruit durring the various seasons and NOT eating it all up :)

Mmm, maybe I'll try this tonight with brown rice and the dandelion greens I just weeded in the garden :)
Posted by Heatherbudapest about Tangy Red Lentils
It's funny, I had a little water in there, and I wasn't sure if it was "excess" -- the thing about lentils is that they can settle to the bottom of the pot, but then if you gi

Posted by Heatherbudapest about Smoky Indian Eggplant Bai
Hey, the one thing that surprises me is that the spices are added into the sauce; one thing that's typical in Indian cuisine is toasting the spices in oil or ghee before addin

PS. I know you love bitter greens too -- do you ever cook dandelion greens? They are *SO BITTER*! But they were palatable with your delicious tangy lentils and the rice.

Hello Scrumptious :) Thank you for the comments on my Mexican Bread Pudding; Yes, the flavours actually DO go together well....Up here in the Great White North (and it's REALLY white right now...) we have been mixing aged cheddar with fruit forever (cheese broiled over an apple pie...YUM!) so this isn't as much of a stretch for me. Hope you do get a chance to try it sometime, and let me know if you do :)
