If your new year's resolution involves eating more whole grains, I have some exciting new recipes to share!Leftover rice from last night's dinner inspired this whole grain dessert. I've eaten too much already, and it's only 3!Brown Rice Spice Cake (vegan)Preheat oven to 325.In a large mixing bowl, combine:-1/4 c gluten free polenta (Bob's Red Mill sells a certified GF polenta, available online)-1

I took a trip to the Ferry Building farmers market this morning to restockour supplies. Expecting to find only piles of dino kale and bags ofpotatoes, I was surprised to find some beautiful baby golden beets, anassortment of chicories, the last of the seasons pluots! Winter in Californiais pretty darn great. I spent all the money I had, and went back for more.When I got home, I cleaned the beets

Red or green kabocha squash makes a mean pumpkin pie. It's got more flavor than a pumpkin by far, it's easier to peel, and you can buy them at your local farmers market from now until March!The pie dough I used is a modified version of the Rugelach dough recipe. It came out incredibly flakey and pastry-like. Very exciting.This recipe should make enough dough for 2 small pies.Dough:3/4 c tapioca

Check out that sourdough! It turned into dinner for 4 as the Marshes and I took off for Rosh Hoshana in LA. It was such a wonderfully fragrant bread that the lady next to me on the flight asked for a piece!And pizza for dinner the other night worked a charm.

I finally made a vegan cookie I enjoyed. With the sandy textures and the cookies that fall apart before they reach your mouth, I thought it might not be possible. But with a little bit of help from some leftover chocolate ganache, these cookies were really well received. I served them at the Evening with Food Artisans market in Carmel, and nobody walked away without a smile.Vegan Chocolate Curry

Here are the results of classes 2 and 3 with the Explo folks! We played with clay for a few hours, warming up with a game of 3D pictionary. Then everyone built their own sketch model to demonstrate the settling effect of bay sediment. There were some awesome models, including a transparent sandy toilet, a water and sand-filled boulder, and a giant french press full of sand and water.Class 3 used

It's been a long time since I posted any drawings that weren't food related, and in truth I haven't even done any in months. But some prodding from the folks at the Exploratorium made me kick into gear. Wednesday was day 1 of a three week course on sketch modeling. It was an awesome class, made possible by the wonderful Jesse Marsh, who put together the workstation of my dreams!Here's cheat sheet

Another flat of bruised tomatoes got me thinking about how wonderful it is to deal with food as it starts to go bad. I must admit, it has always been a dream of mine to live in a house with an endless supply of jars, and now I do! If you have some produce that's starting to turn, deal with it!

After my shopping rounds at last night's Castro farmers market, my pile of food was rather daunting: four bags of greens and a bag of fruit waiting to be loaded onto my bike before the ride up the hill. But along came Donka of Happy Boy Farms with a whole beautiful flat of bruised heirloom tomatoes! There were some in every color, from bright green to watermelon red to yellow with orange

Since summer pies have felt anything but seasonal here in chilly San Francisco, I whipped up a loaf of fresh corn and bell pepper cornbread to keep me warm at this evening's farmers market. It's quite similar to the cornbread muffin recipe from earlier in the year, but a little more refined and a little more delicious. Eat warm if you can. Also, this cornbread will melt in your mouth, but

Well the pie trials are in full force as the summer fruit bowl stays full. This week featured a blueberry pie (with a quart of blueberries!). It had a buttermilk biscuit crust which held its shape beautifully when the pie was sliced. The crust looked like it was incredible right out of the oven, but when it cooled it got a little tough, so more pies are coming, and someday I'll get my crust

With all of the fruit I bruise on the trek home from Sunday's market, I'dbe hard pressed not to be in pie mode. But being in pie mode is all aboutthe crust! Which means butter, cold dough, and quick quick working time.I'm still working on a flaky pastry dough, but I think I'm getting close.

Another exciting loaf over at 1026! This one was for Ted Marsh's birthdayparty on Monday night. Baked in the morning before my shift at the MoMA,the warm bread survived several bumpy miles shoved into my bike pannier,a few sweaty hours in my locker at work, a ride on CalTrain and a few moremiles on bike before arriving only slightly blemished at the dinner table inMillbrae. It was so delicious,

or, Cole Valley's yeasty adventures.I started a batch of gluten free sourdough starter about 2 weeks ago, whichmade a deliciously mild and light loaf of bread. To make the starter, I addedan assortment of flours, sugar, salt and xanthan gum to a bowl of water,and let it sit by the window for a couple of days. Every 8-12 hours I fed it freshflour and water. Eventually it started to bubble and

Getting ahead of myself only slightly, I decided to attempt a loaf ofsourdough bread using the now very tiny starter leftover after makingpizza. The pizza dough used 3 cups of starter and a cup and a half of flour.The loaf used 2 cups of flour and only 1 1/4 cup of starter:Sourdough Loaf:1 c tapioca starch1/2 c garfava flour1/2 c brown rice flour1 T sugar1 t salt1/4 t xanthan gum (next time I'll

For pizza night this week, I tried to use my sourdough starter, which hasbeen bubbling happily on the counter top since Saturday. I hit up KariWilliams for some bread-baking secrets, watched a youtube video on theproper way to knead bread dough, and got to work!Above is the dough post knead. I though maybe, just maybe, kneading the dough would activate some of the rice gluten chains, so I worked

5/20/11: Vegan Layer Cake RecipeThis one came out very moist, crumbly, and rather unfamiliar texture-wise.I brought it to work yesterday to the delight of my vegan coworkers, one ofwhom is a pastry chef, so I guess the recipe is worth sharing.

I seem to have fallen behind this past week. Thanks to Sam and Seoyhungfor an awesome visit, and for posing for me on my day off from the MOMA.Work at the museum is going swimmingly, and I am now opening thecafe by myself a few times a week. The cafe is in the indoor part of therooftop sculpture garden, shared with a Calder mobile, Louise Bourgeois'spiders, and some Tony Cragg stalagmites.
