“Why go out for Thai food when you can make it at home? These delicious Thai-style chicken satay are made of chicken marinated in a peanutty sauce, and then grilled.”

Occasionally, I stop in for a few things at one of the handful of smaller grocery stores in my area. Not quite a bodega or corner market, these are true grocery stores that have somehow survived the Mega-Mart grocery takeover of the last several decades. I don’t always get to shop at these places due to their location and (sometimes, but not always) higher prices but when I do, I notice that I just plain enjoy the whole experience.

“This is a rich and hearty lentil curry, great as a main meal rather than as a side dish like the more traditional Indian dhal. Don’t let the ingredient list faze you, this really is an easy dish to make. This dish is great served with basmati rice.”
Summer Recipe: Fresh Peach Soda
Can you believe it’s August already? Neither can we! We are, however, luxuriating in peaches and apricots, and thinking about all the plum jam we’d like to make. What about you? Are you reaching for summer fruit? Or do you have other cooking plans this weekend? Maybe lighting the grill, or staying cool with homemade ice cream? Tell us your cooking plans this weekend — we’d love to hear.
We are determined to squeeze every second out of summer while it’s here, starting with a slice of this crispy grilled pizza topped with fresh sweet corn and tomatoes and ending with a bowl of tangy, lemony ice cream. You also won’t want to miss our fizzy fresh peach soda from this week or how to make an fresh, zesty gremolata to spoon over grilled vegetables and chicken. We also shared lots of S’mores fixings, with birthday cake marshmallows and S’mores inspired by Key lime pie. Take a look at all our summer-lovin’ recipes from this past week right here!
For the final note on my Backyard S’mores Party, this month’s Gathering from The Kitchn, I wanted to bring you a quick look at Rome Industries, a small American company based in Illinois who makes many of the marshmallow forks, hot dog roasters, and S’mores makers in use around campfires all over the country this summer. I asked Michael O’Russa, their president, how they got started and he shared this sweet story about his dad…
Shell spoons are a lovely way to remember your summer days at the beach. They’re not really suitable for eating — ragged edges make for dangerous soup slurping! — but they’re beautiful as mini scoops for sugar, salt, tea, or dry herbs.
