Peach Pancakes

 
The peaches have been surprisingly sweet and juicy this year in Central Texas! After an overly-optimistic purchase of peaches recently, I found myself with several uneaten peaches that were starting to shrivel. This is when they are at their sweetest, and are perfect for baking, mushing, or otherwise bruising. Welcome to my kitchen, peach pancakes!


Peach Pancakes
Carisbrooke Inn Bed and Breakfast

1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 c yogurt
1/2 c milk
2 T canola oil
1 T sugar
1 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c peaches, chopped

Mix egg, yogurt, milk, oil, and sugar. In a separate small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon with a wire whisk. Add the flour mixture to the liquid mixture and stir just enough to combine (batter may be lumpy). Fold in the chopped peaches. Spray a hot griddle lightly with cooking oil and preheat to 325 degrees. Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter on the griddle for each pancake. Cook until light brown on the bottom. Flip the pancakes over and finish cooking.

Curried Chicken Soup

      I made this soup so often in the 1990s, but frankly had forgotten about it.   Flipping through this cookbook, I found this recipe and was flooded with memories. When I was in grad school, this soup was my "feeling decadent" food and reminded me of something people might eat after hitting the slopes -- a thing I have never done. A few decades long, and with a lot more experience with cooking, I realize that this is basically a chicken curry with a thin sauce and the rice already in the meal -- but don't let that in any way discourage you! It's delicious as is and is a wonderful take on what is otherwise chicken and rice soup. I have become a fan of using rotisserie chickens, especially during the pandemic. They are so cheap, and I can use the meat in a soup like this on the day-of grocery shopping, and, crunch the bones down for the freezer for making stock in the future. Of course, this soup can be made with a fresh chicken, but I have modified the recipe bel...

Tortellini with Gorgonzola Cream Sauce

I've been making this dish for guests for years. This is, sadly, part two of the dinner-with-no-photographs. I'm sure I'll be making this again soon, at which point I'll update this post with pics.

Spicy Bulgarian Tomato Dumpling Soup - Domatene Supa

  This was very very good. The soup itself was flavorful and would have been enough as a dinner soup. But adding the dumplings converted this soup into an entree. The couscous addition in the batter makes the dumplings pretty foolproof -- no real concern that they'll still be raw because most of the bulk is couscous, which was already cooked. I opted to cook only enough dumplings as we needed that night. We will have to make future dumplings "on demand" as we eat this as leftovers. Spicy Bulgarian Tomato Dumpling Soup - Domatene Supa Sundays at Moosewood Restaurant Soup 1 onion , diced 4 cloves garlic , minced 3 T olive oil 6 c tomatoes , chopped (fresh or canned and drained) 2 tsp chili powder 2 T flour 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 4 c stock Dumplings 2 T butter , room temperature 2 eggs , separated 1/4 c couscous 1/4 c boiling water 3/4 c flour 1/4 tsp salt 2 T dill weed , fresh (or 1 tsp dried) 1/3 c milk or stock In medium pot, sa...
