I’d like to share how simple and fun lacto-fermentation of vegetables can be. I’ve only done a bit of it, but enough to see that lacto-fermented vegetables taste fabulous and are very easy to make. What I love the most about it is that I don’t have to heat anything (though some recipes call for a bit of cooking) and that measuring is not that precise. This is the kind of anti-cooking I like!

Our favorite is the most simple: I will soften diced onions in extra virgin olive oil (or unrefined coconut oil or red palm oil) in a cast iron skillet, then incorporate the leftover quinoa. Once it is all warm, I season [...]

I am going to cook okra for the first time in my life. I have eaten okra before as a child. The fact that I never liked it has nothing to do with my mom’s cooking (she’s an excellent cook). It was prepared in a tomato sauce, an authentic Arabic recipe, and this creates slimy [...]

I have to thank my friend Cheryl for inspiring some yummy food for tonight’s dinner. We got a big bag of local, naturally-grown-although-not-certified-organic green beans at the Farmer’s Market yesterday. I was going to make Loubieh (Arabic Green Bean Stew) out of them. But her simple recipe sounded so good and so simple, so [...]

While the pan and oil are heating, cut all the kernels off the ears of corn.
Transfer the corn to the [...]

A great way to make a double batch of this is to cook 5 cups of dry black beans in the crockpot overnight. Use a 4- to 5-quart crockpot. In the morning, you’ll have 15 cups of cooked black beans, which will make the following recipe twice. Use half the beans for the first batch [...]
