“A sweet and tangy onion relish that can be used as you would most any relish. Great on subs and cooked into cornbread.”

Happy Independence Day! (And to our visitors from outside the U.S., happy Thursday!)
All across our great country today, patriotic folks will be slipping into swimsuits, cracking open cold beers, and firing up their grills. But just in case you didn’t get a menu planned in time, these splendidly simple grilled sausages with their trio of dipping sauces have you more than covered.
If you’re just craving a classic Caesar, here’s a clean, refreshing style of Caesar dressing without egg, so it emphasizes the garlic, anchovy and lemon instead of hiding them behind a mayonnaise mask.

“This is the real thing! A simple mixture of masa harina and water results in the most wonderful corn tortillas you ever tasted. The secret is to use a cast iron pan! You can buy masa harina at Mexican grocery stores or in the ethnic food aisle of large supermarkets.”
Are you part of a CSA this season? I am, and for the next few months I’ll be sharing my weekly CSA box with you — what I got, and how I plan to use it all up! Last week the season kicked off with greens, beets, and strawberries, and this week there’s more of the same, but also shell peas and squash! Let’s get to it:
The other week I had people over for some wine and snacks. One of my friends tends to tote a generous wedge of cheese when she comes over — and her selections never disappoint. Her tactic? She tells her cheesemonger that she’s going over to a cheesemonger’s house. And let’s him do the picking.
This time, her blue literally shoved the one I’d purchased off of the cheese board and back into the fridge. Hers, quite simply, deserved center stage.
It’s our nation’s 4th of July celebration tomorrow, and like most holidays, this one deserves a feast — a celebration through food (and maybe beer, too). If you have a rotisserie attachment for your grill hanging around, it’s time to dust it off (and if you don’t have one, now might be the time to finally buy it). Because today, my friends, I’m going to show you how to cook the best darn rotisserie chicken you’ve ever had. Time to quit messing around.
Potato salad, it turns out, is a very personal thing. People have opinions! They have strong preferences that they will not budge from! Which is kind of strange when you consider that potato salads are classic picnic and potluck fare. Take our survey, and read on for our take on the four basic sorts of potato salad…

“This vegan pancake recipe is the best of the vegan lot. The secret that these pancakes are not soggy like the other vegans ones is that it uses custard powder. This ensures the pancakes are cakelike and taste and look exactly like non-vegan pancakes. Mix fruit into the batter if you like. Serve hot with syrup or jam.”
