CATSUP OR KETCHUP

Checking into this issue it seems either title is correct for this beloved condiment. My search unearthed an interesting fact. Both names are Westernized terms for a condiment that has origins in China: fish sauce. Who knew? I love these little known facts about recipes.

SIMPLE INGREDIENTS

The ingredients are simple, you may have most of them on hand except the fresh blackberries. The recipe comes from my all-time favorite chef-designer, Lee Bailey. An immense talent, he contributed food, tabletop, garden and design books. I met Lee at a local book signing for Cooking with Friends. Great recipes for guests and simple home style meals. Lee was never fussy. Many of his books contain the tabletop items he designed and sold. This from Saveur Magazine, tells you he was at the beginning of the taste movement. His shop in Henri Bendel NYC was fabulous.

Skillet Blueberry Cobbler with Biscuits

SKILLET BLUEBBERRY COBBLER WITH BUTTERMILK BISCUITS | Bijouxs Little Jewels

This recipe includes 3 things that I love: a cast iron skillet, wild blueberries and biscuits. Together they create this easy SKILLET BLUEBERRY COBBLER WITH BUTTERMILK BISCUITS, another Little Jewel from the Recipe Collection.

COBBLERS

Cobblers are at the top of my simple go-to dessert list. A couple favorites inlude a Basic Strawberry Cobbler and my all time favorite Pumpkin Cobbler. Cooking in a cast iron skillet makes this dessert so easy.

BIG SUR BISCUITS

My Big Sur Biscuits are wonderful, but without time and guests on the way I resorted to buttermilk canned ready-to-bake biscuits, which actutally were not bad. Look at the label for the ingredients many have Palm Oil, might want to avoid those. There are other natural biscuits alternatives to try.

BLUEBERRIES

Blueberries are a household favorite for desserts, breakfast and morning smoothies. My current favorite is Wyman’s Wild Blueberries frozen and perfect to keep on hand.

Blueberry Crumble

Blueberry Crumble | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Taking a drive to the far Northern section of California yields a bounty of beautiful places to visit. I loved driving up to Northern California, mostly as a child, picking wild berries that grew along the winding roads, up through Trinidad, the redwoods and Crescent City. Some of our most beautiful coast is also home to wild blueberries which produce a marvelous little jewel Blueberry Crumble. Continue reading Blueberry Crumble

Overnight Oats with Turmeric & Chia

Overnight Oats with Turmeric & Chia |Bijouxs Little Jewels

Overnight oats, yes, I am patient for breakfast. I have multiple favorite overnight oat recipes here on the blog, but there is always room for one more. This recipe is inspired from the wonderful Cafe Gratitude. Yes, you can take the girl out of LA but not LA out of the girl-a little jewel recipe from my home town.

OVERNIGHT OATS

So grateful that Cafe Gratitude has a cookbook and shares the wonderful recipes for us no longer living in LA. Whenever I visit home I always check in at plant-based eateries, there is always something new to try and learn, innovative cuisine. Cafe Gratitude delivers.

Cooking from the books these days, simple confinement cooking. This recipe “I am Patient” is an overnight oat recipe with modern flavor profile. Turmeric, ginger and chia seeds add the the bowl’s colorful mix. We are all eating more turmeric and ginger for health, but the almond-date milk you soak the oats in is the key. Blended with dates, the almond milk becomes slightly sweet and rich.

Overnight Oats with Turmeric & Chia | Bijouxs Little Jewels

The recipe is flexible, use spices or add nuts as you like. Adjust the consistency of the oats to suit your preference by adding a bit more almond milk before serving. Of course, espresso is called for.

A time to be grateful. Be well.
