For my very first Secret Recipe Club assignment back in July 2011, I tried to roast chickpeas. I love chickpeas and I love wasabi peas so I had high hopes. They came out soggy and chewy, not crunchy and delicious. (Needless to say I moved on to another recipe.)

Recently I was . . . → Read More: White Bean-Tomato Soup with Chickpea “Croutons”

For my last post, I presented a recipe for “French Peasant Bread” and mentioned how wonderful this bread was to accompany soup. I teased you with an upcoming potato soup and decided to continue my peasant theme.

I have tons of frozen pumpkin puree in the freezer. You see, I love buying pumpkins for holiday decorations. I get my money’s worth because I buy for Halloween, leave the pumpkins on the front steps for Thanksgiving, and then they finally meet their demise in a hot oven as they roast. . . . → Read More: Pumpkin-Tomato Soup with Beans and Chickpeas

More OCD Revisited: Pappa al Pomodoro

By Eliot, on January 18th, 2013%

I adapted this recipe from A Table in Tuscany by Leslie Forbes. I bought this cookbook on the bargain rack at a local bookstore MANY years ago. I think I actually bought two and gave one to my best friend as a gift. (We both dream about traveling and/or living in Tuscany one day!)
