	Rich Sauce with White Eggplant & Herbs by Amos Miller Eggplant has nothing to do with eggs - unless you dip and bread them. This sauce is a knockout! We grow 'Casper', an heirloom small, long white eggplant. It's mild in flavor and perfectly suited to thick, rich vegetable sauces. When cut into dime-to-quarter-sized disks, I have found Casper to be a perfect addition to other late…	13 votes 5 reviews 10 comments 16536 views

	Cornbread, Jalapeno Maple Bacon by Amos Miller When the daytime temperature hits around 50 degrees and the evening plunges to 30 or lower, it is time to begin the annual maple syrup processing in our neck of the woods. We use it for many things and one of them is this cornbread. I first had a jalapeno cornbread in Texas, made by my sister's cowboy husband's aunt Netha, and…	12 votes 10 reviews 16 comments 22553 views

	Pear & Fig Chutney by Amos Miller I still had a few pears from the orchard and the figs are almost finished. Why not a Pear & Fig chutney? Easily done! This is everything a chutney should be. The flavors of the pears, combined with the figs' texture and sweetness, the plump raisins and blend of vinegars easily marry to the aromatic spices. And a quality cracked…	10 votes 5 reviews 10 comments 28064 views
	Top SF Chronicle Recipe: Pasta with Broccoli and Spicy Sausage by John Spottiswood Our good friend Linda Hansen saved this top recipe from the SF Chronicle in 2004 and it has become one of her and our favorites.

	San Antone Black Bean Salad by Amos Miller With friends and family living in the great state of Texas, my frequent visits have always meant new flavor profiles to experience, new ways to express myself in the kitchen and when I am invited out and asked to 'bring something to pass'. I developed the following recipe to assure that I would seldom have to carry home any…	9 votes 5 reviews 9 comments 20726 views
	Green Beans with Basil and Tomato by John Spottiswood This is an attractive and tasty side dish. The butter, basil and tomato adds a nice flavor boost to the green beans. I've made them with garlic salt and regular kosher salt, both are delicious. If you want to spice it up, add more black pepper or substitute crushed red pepper for the black pepper.	9 votes 4 reviews 3 comments 7519 views
	Cauliflower & Potatoes ~ Indian style by Amos Miller I have never been a really big fan of cauliflower, but I love potatoes and spices. This dish, known as 'Alu Ghobi', has long been a favorite vegetable side dish in my kitchen. It is simple, easy to make and very healthy for you. One seldom finds a cauliflower dish on the average restaurant menu. But you need not be a…	8 votes 4 reviews 13 comments 21525 views
	Creole Rice Pudding by Amos Miller NEVER throw day-old rice away! Next time you have that extra-large Chinese take out and you have some of that white rice left over, you have the base of a fabulous rice pudding, New Orleans-style! This is NOT the junk you have to choose from for dessert ("jello, rice pudding, sherbet") after the regrettable meal at the greasy spoon…	7 votes 2 reviews 2 comments 12238 views
	Romaine Salad with Creamy Basil Dressing by John Spottiswood The crisp inner leaves of romaine lettuce goes wonderfully with this light and creamy basil-infused dressing. We served the same dressing the following night with a more traditional mixed green salad with lettuce, avocado, tomato and cucumber, and that was delicious too. If you're looking for a tasty alternative to a caesar dressing,…	7 votes 4 reviews 3 comments 12006 views

	Creole Pralines by Amos Miller Better than a cookie (sorry bakers, but this is a Creole group) and with the true taste of New Orleans, Creole Pralines are one of the signature treats in the Big Easy! It is time to play 'soft ball', and we're not talking the sport - we're talking Creole candy. When the recipe calls for your concoction on the stove to reach the…	5 votes 2 reviews 4 comments 10219 views
	Everything Goes Oatmeal Coookies by J. Gino Genovesi This is an original recipe. I was making them, years ago, because my children wanted a "loaded" oatmeal cookie that was good, soft and plump. Now my grand children like them and I thought I would pass it on so others can enjoy them. They are easy to prepare and delicious. Chef J. Gino Genovesi	5 votes 5 reviews 2 comments 17998 views
	Fabulous 3 Cherry Pie by Amos Miller Most folks don't have the luxury of owning a personal cherry orchard, so I modified this recipe using ingredients available at most stores. You'll save the picking and pitting time and end up with a fabulous pie that will thrill even those who say they do not care for cherry pie (I've had it happen). As a native-born…	4 votes 1 review 7 comments 7112 views
