Nectarine Buttermilk Muffins #MuffinMonday

In the UK, stone fruit is often sold with a label saying “ripen at home.” I shunned the peaches and nectarines for that very reason because in the States, when I pick up fruit in the supermarket and want it to smell like what it is! 

I finally had to get over that or I’d never get to enjoy a summer nectarine and I love them dearly. Like with avocados, the “ripen at home” fruit is a balancing act of leaving them be and then eating them all quickly. Or when they go a little too soft, baking them in muffins. Win-win. 

Nectarine Buttermilk Muffins

This recipe makes nine regular size muffins. I was super excited when I came across this pan in my mom’s house because it fits in my Ninja 9-in-1 oven. No need to turn the big oven on to bake! I use the bake setting so it takes just as long but the advantage is very little preheating time. These can also be baked in a normal oven, same temperature and time. 

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups or 190g flour
1/2 cup or 100g granulated sugar 
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 cup or 110g chopped fresh nectarines, plus extra for topping, optional
1/3 cup or 80ml canola or other light, plus more for greasing pan (if not using paper muffin liners)
1/2 cup or 120ml buttermilk
2 large eggs, at room temperature

Optional for decoration: pearl sugar 
I used about 1 1/2 tablespoons

Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F or 180°C. Line a 9-cup muffin pan with baking cups or grease the pan with a little oil. 

Cut part of a second nectarine into thin slices to use as topping/decoration. I used the nicest ones for the muffins and ate the rest.


In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in the chopped nectarines and separate the pieces, coating them all with the dry ingredients.


In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, oil and eggs. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold until just combined. 


Divide the batter between the muffin cups. 


Top each with a slice of nectarine and sprinkle on the pearl sugar, if using.


Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Roasted Salmon with Crispy Chickpea Salsa

This roasted salmon with crispy chickpea salsa has tasty flavors from the spicy chickpeas, garlic, cilantro and garlic and a lovely mix of textures.

Food Lust People Love: This roasted salmon with crispy chickpea salsa has tasty flavors from the spicy chickpeas, garlic, cilantro and garlic and a lovely mix of textures.

This dish is easy and quick to make so it’s perfect for a weeknight meal, but it’s pretty enough for a dinner party. It elevates the humble chickpea into something sort of fancy, as a topping, rather than main ingredient in a main course.

If you are a fan of chickpeas, this is your lucky day! Make sure to scroll down to the bottom to check out the other chickpea recipes my Sunday FunDay group are sharing. 

Roasted Salmon with Crispy Chickpea Salsa

This dish can be made with farmed salmon as well with the caveat that the farmed fish is thicker so it will take longer to cook. Wild salmon is best when cooked till just done (or even a little bit less since it keeps cooking even after it’s taken out of the oven.) 

Ingredients
For the salmon:
1 side wild salmon (about 1.5 lbs or 680g)
Fine sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter) melted

For the chickpeas:
1 can (14.11 oz or 400g) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

For the salsa:
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, crushed then minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup or 35g pumpkin seeds
small bunch cilantro, about 1 3/4 oz or 50g, hard stems removed 

Method
In a nonstick skillet, lightly fry the chickpeas over a medium heat, along with the oil and seasonings, until golden and crunchy. 


Be patient with this step. If you try to rush and turn the flame too high, you risk burning the chickpeas. Shake the pan and stir occasionally. 


This could take 15-20 minutes but meanwhile you can get on with the rest of the recipe. 

Put the vinegar, garlic, olive oil and pumpkin seeds in a small processor along with 1/3 of the cilantro. Process until slightly chunky.  


Set aside a few sprigs of cilantro for garnish then lightly chop the rest.


To roast the salmon, preheat your broiler (UK Eng: grill) to its highest setting and line a baking sheet or sheet pan with aluminum foil. Pat your salmon fillet dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. 

Place the salmon fillet skin side down on the foil-lined sheet and season it with the fine sea salt and black pepper. Then brush it with the melted ghee. 


Pop it under the broiler and keep a close eye on it. Your salmon should be ready within 4 to 6 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillet. 


While the salmon is roasting, mix the ingredients in the food processor with the chickpeas and chopped cilantro. 


Garnish the whole salmon with the reserved cilantro.

Cape Malay-ish Pineapple Chicken with Pineapple Salsa

Slightly sweet, savory and spicy, this pineapple chicken with pineapple salsa is easy to make and so flavorful! Serve it with coconut or plain rice.

Food Lust People Love: Slightly sweet, savory and spicy, this pineapple chicken with pineapple salsa is easy to make and so flavorful! Serve it with coconut or plain rice.

Back at the beginning of the first pandemic lockdown, I was already addicted to finding reading material through the Libby app and my own library cards. I borrowed lots of books, of course, but I also searched for magazine with recipes.

One day I came across one called Koe’sister from South Africa. It was brand new, created from a desire to share and preserve family recipes during the pandemic. Published in a mix of English and Afrikaans, it opened a window on a world I had only touched tangentially, through South African friends. 

Funnily enough, as I read one issue, I discovered that one of my expat friends was a contributor! How tiny is this world of ours? 

I also discovered that South African cuisine is as diverse as ours in the United States and includes a subset of culture and recipes from Malays who settled in the Cape area, bringing their love of spices and curries. I was introduced to cookbook authors like Fadella Williams who wrote The Cape Malay Illustrated Cookbook, Cariema Isaacs who has authored four cookbooks - all focused on her Cape Malay heritage and recipes - as well as blogger and author Salwaa Smith and her self-published Cape Malay Cooking & Other Delights.

Both The Cape Malay Illustrated Cookbook and Smith’s blog have many wonderful flavorful recipes but two in particular caught my eye because New York Times Cooking had shared something similar just before I found them. Williams calls hers “pineapple peri-peri chicken” and Smith titles her simply “pineapple chicken.” Both use canned pineapple but Smith’s was closer in flavor profile to the NYT Cooking version.

Of course, these three recipes for chicken with pineapple sent me down an internet rabbit hole, looking for more Cape Malay recipes. Hey, we were on lockdown. I had all the time in the world. 

Cape Malay-ish Pineapple Chicken with Pineapple Salsa

As you can tell from my title, I did finally get around to making some pineapple chicken and I’m here to tell you, it is SO GOOD. I took some liberties by using fresh pineapple and adding the pineapple salsa recommended by NYT Cooking, hence the -ish. 

Ingredients
1 ½ pounds or 680g boneless, skinless chicken breasts

For the marinade:
3 packed tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for cooking
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt 
3 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
½ teaspoon ground cayenne
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons finely grated fresh pineapple, including accumulated juices

For the pineapple salsa: 
¼ medium red onion, finely diced
1 cup or 170g fresh pineapple
Small handful fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1 red chili pepper, thinly sliced

For serving:
Cooked white or brown rice (also nice with coconut rice)

Method
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized chunks. 


In a large Ziploc bag, stir together the brown sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, minced garlic, ground cayenne and black pepper.


Transfer 1 generous tablespoon of the mixture to a medium bowl and add the chopped onion. Stir well. 


Cut the pineapple for the salsa into 1/2 in or 1 cm chunks. Add them to the onion bowl along with the cilantro and chili pepper. Toss until well-mixed and set aside.


Finely grate two tablespoons of the remaining pineapple. Add the pineapple and any juice to the marinade in the plastic bag.


Add the chicken chunks and toss to coat. Squeeze all the air you can out of the bag and seal. Set it aside to marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes (and no longer, otherwise the chicken turns mushy.)


Once the chicken is done marinating, pour the chicken into a sieve or strainer over a bowl to collect the leftover marinade. 


Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high and add enough olive oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. Cook the chicken pieces in batches so they don’t touch and are in a single layer. 


Cook until the bottoms are browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn them and continue cooking, until browned on all sides, a few minutes more. 


Remove to a plate and repeat with the next batches of chicken pieces (adding a little more olive oil to the pan if necessary) until all are browned and almost cooked through. 


Once the chicken is all on the plate, pour the leftover marinade into the pan and whisk while it cooks. Make sure to heat it to bubbling for several minutes to make sure it’s cooked through.


Tip the chicken pieces and any juice that has accumulated on the plate back into the pan.


Stir well to coat the chicken in the cooked marinade and heat until the chicken is piping hot and ready to serve. Serve with rice and the spicy pineapple salsa.

Overnight Sourdough Cinnamon Waffles #BreadBakers

While the sourdough starter in these overnight sourdough cinnamon waffles adds flavor, the addition of buttermilk and baking soda makes them fluffy and light. 

Food Lust People Love: While the sourdough starter in these overnight sourdough cinnamon waffles adds flavor, the addition of buttermilk and baking soda makes them fluffy and light.

Since we got back to Jersey a couple of months ago, I’ve nursed my sourdough starter back to robust good health and have enjoyed using it in a number of baked treats like sourdough baguettes, rolls and muffins. 

Since it survived the several months of abandonment, I decided it finally deserved a name so it was duly christened Jane Dough. The quart jar sports a label now with her name.

Jane is the most forgiving of souls. She lives in the refrigerator most of the time, but when I know I’m going to need her good services, she has place of pride on the countertop where she gets a decent meal (100 percent hydration which means 50g water and 50g flour, stir well) and sits out for a night. If it’s chilly, I warm her up by sitting her jar in a bowl of warm water first. 

Overnight Sourdough Cinnamon Waffles

This recipe is adapted from one on the King Arthur Baking website. They used sourdough discard but I decided to feed Jane Dough up the day before instead because she was getting low and the half cup would have been a lot to use, leaving her dangerously small. If you have enough discard, certainly use it. 

Ingredients - makes 8 square Belgian waffles
For the overnight sponge: 
1/2 cup or 113g sourdough starter (fed or unfed)
1 cup or 125g flour
1 cup or 240ml buttermilk
1 tablespoon sugar

For the batter:
all of the overnight sponge
1 large egg
2 tablespoons canola or other light oil
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Scant 1/2 teaspoon salt

Method
To make the overnight sponge, stir down your starter, and remove 1/2 cup or 113g. In a large bowl, whisk together the starter, flour, buttermilk and sugar, 


Cover with cling film and leave rest at cool room temperature (about 65°F to 70°F) for about 12 hours, or overnight.

The next morning, beat the egg and oil together in a small bowl. As you can see off to the left, Jane Dough has done some good work overnight. Bubbling along nicely. 


Add it to the overnight sponge, stirring just to combine.


Add in the cinnamon, salt and baking soda and fold well to combine. 


To make the waffles: Pour the batter onto your preheated, greased waffle iron, and bake according to the manufacturer's instructions. 


Repeat with the remaining batter.


If you like crunchy waffles, I suggest serving them immediately. You can hold them in a warm oven till they are all baked but they do lose some of their crispness then.

Carrot Greens Pesto

Don’t waste those carrot tops, make pesto with them! Garlicky, cheesy and rich with toasted pine nuts, carrot greens pesto is a delicious way to take advantage of an ingredient many people cut off and throw away. 

Food Lust People Love: Don’t waste those carrot tops, make pesto with them! Garlicky, cheesy and rich with toasted pine nuts, carrot greens pesto is a delicious way to take advantage of an ingredient many people cut off and throw away.

Sometimes I buy carrots in the organic section of the supermarket (or at a farmer’s market) just so I’ll also have the greens to make pesto. It makes me feel virtuous to use something that many people don’t, but best of all, it’s wonderful and fresh. 

On that same subject and nothing to do with this recipe, but did you know you can also eat the greens from beets? I sauté them with garlic and a little olive oil, sprinkle of salt and they are so good! And I get to feel virtuous again. 

Carrot Greens Pesto

My greens were from seven carrots, as you can see in the photos but if you have a bit more or less, it’s still all good. I roasted the carrots and served them with pesto on top for an all-carrot dish. The leftover pesto was fabulous stirred through linguine, always my first choice pasta shape. 

Ingredients
1 cup, packed, or 30g carrot greens, leafy parts only, no stems
Scant 1/3 cup or 50g pine nuts
3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup or 60ml olive oil
1/3 cup or 30g freshly grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Method
Toast the pine nuts in a dry non-stick skillet. This doesn't take long, just a few minutes. Keep shaking the pan so they don't burn. 


Cut the ferny ends of the carrot greens off, leaving the harder stems behind. 


Stuff them in your small food processor and add the other ingredients except the Parmesan. 


Process until smooth. Add the Parmesan. Process again. 


Like all pesto, it’s that easy. 


Chill until ready to use. Put some pasta on to boil or roast the accompanying carrots. Pat yourself on the back and feel virtuous. One less item for the compost or trash bin.

Bonus recipe: Roast Carrots 
Not really a recipe, but here you go. This is how I do it. 

Preheat your oven to 400°F or 200°C. 

Pop the scrubbed carrots in a small pan and drizzle them with olive oil. 


Roast the carrots in your preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until they are lovely and a little sticky and a fork pokes into them easily. You might want to give them a shake halfway through if your oven doesn't heat evenly all round. 

Top them with the carrot greens pesto and serve warm.

Grilled Octopus with Spinach and Smoky Beans

This grilled octopus with spinach and smoky beans will seduce you with the tenderest octopus atop melt-in-your-mouth white beans. Serve as an appetizer or main dish. 

Food Lust People Love: This grilled octopus with spinach and smoky beans will seduce you with the tenderest octopus atop melt-in-your-mouth white beans. Serve as an appetizer or main dish.

Ten years ago, almost to the day, our eldest daughter graduated from Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, Rhode Island. We celebrated with dinner at a local restaurant named Bácaro, specializing in Italian fare. 

For my appetizer, I ordered their wood-grilled crispy baby octopus which was described thusly: 

 


The dish was so good that we attempted to go back the very next day to have it again. I kid you not. Everyone who had tried mine wanted their own bowl! Unfortunately, the restaurant is only open for dinner Tuesday through Saturday so we were out of luck that Sunday. 

The disappointment was keenly felt. 

For years I've waxed lyrical about that bowl of wonderful smoky beans with the grilled octopus and numerous times, I’ve searched online for a recipe. I even wrote the restaurant and Edible Rhody, a local Providence food and drink magazine, to ask for one. The magazine folks did write back and say they’d try. Sadly, no joy. 

I finally decided it was time to stop dreaming and try to recreate it myself. Final result: Delicious. Was it the same? Probably not but then, it's hard to live up to a dream. 

Grilled Octopus with Spinach and Smoky Beans

This recipe is my attempt to somewhat replicate the flavors I remember. I don’t recall the grilled radicchio with honey and balsamic so I just skipped that part of the description. Please read through the method before starting so you can decide how you will cook the beans. I use a pressure cooker or Instant Pot. 

Ingredients
1 lb 8 oz or 680g octopus
Olive oil
8oz dried navy beans
2 cloves garlic, crushed and chopped
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke
6oz or 170g baby spinach leaves

Parsley for garnish, if desired

Method
Preheat the oven to 220°F or 104°C. 

Clean the octopus well (I empty the head) and remove the beak. 


Heat a large pot of water to boiling. Drop the octopus in and set a timer for 45 seconds. 


When the timer rings, remove the octopus to a colander and drain. 

Transfer the octopus to an ovenproof pot with a tight-fitting lid with just a drizzle of olive oil. 


Put it in the preheated oven, lid on, for two hours. The octopus will create its own braising liquid. Photo after one hour:


Photo after two hours:


If you are cooking the beans in a traditional manner, pour boiling water over them in a metal mixing bowl and cover it with a plate. Leave to soak for one hour. Drain and rinse then cook the beans using your favorite method with the garlic, smoked paprika, salt and liquid smoke. 

Alternatively, DON’T SOAK THE BEANS and follow my instructions here for using a pressure cooker or Instant Pot: 
I can never be bothered to soak dried beans so I use my pressure cooker or Instant Pot. Put the beans in the pot with the other ingredients. Add water to cover twice the level of beans and 1. in a pressure cooker, cook for 30 minutes once the pot gets up to pressure or 2. in an Instant Pot, choose the beans/chili setting, which is also usually 30 minutes. 

In both cases, leave to de-pressurize naturally for at least 10 minutes when cooking time is up. You can cook them a bit longer uncovered to reduce the liquid, if desired. 


Cool and refrigerate the beans until you are ready to grill the octopus and serve. 

When the octopus is tender – you can test this after two hours by inserting a knife into the top of one of the tentacles, just where it joins the body. It should go in easily - start your charcoal or wood fire. Reserve the octopus cooking pot broth for possibly adding to the beans later. 

The coals should be quite hot so you can quickly grill the octopus so it browns and sears without drying out. Put your grill rack about 4 inches from heat source. 

Brush the octopus with olive oil. 


Grill it over the hot coals until the outside is browned but the inside is not dried out, about 8-10 minutes. 


We started tentacles down and turned it over about halfway through.

And by we, throughout this part, I mean my grill guy (best husband!) put the lid on for a couple of the minutes, to let it smoke. 


Turn the octopus over and brush with more olive oil about halfway through.


Cut the octopus apart, leaving the tentacles whole and chopping the head, into bite-sized pieces


Heat the beans in a pot over medium heat till they are bubbling.


Heap the baby spinach in the hot beans and pop the lid on so they wilt. Stir them into the beans. 


For extra flavor (and saltiness), you can add some of the broth left behind in the octopus cooking pot, if desired. I suggest straining it as you do. I'll be honest, I don't remember why but there must have been something in there that I thought we'd be better off without in the beans. 🤷‍♀️


Serve the beans in shallow bowls, topped with a grilled octopus tentacle or two. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of smoked paprika and some parsley, if desired.
