Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Bok choy with shiitakes

    • cookerT on November 29, 2011

      I made this as a vegetable side to chicken larb salad. It is tasty. I used whole baby boy choy and sliced shiitake instead of whole. The only thing is that the garlic gets too browned while you are trying to get a little brown on the bok choy. Next time I would add the bok choy first, get it going then add the garlic and then the shiitake. I think that would be best. I'd keep this one up my sleeve.

  • Cape Cod Portguese kale soup

    • Kringler on November 10, 2010

      Very good. I used linguica sausage.

    • Lindalib on August 31, 2012

      This was good, although I was the only one who liked it. It does freeze well.

  • Wild rice and chickpea salad

    • aeader on January 01, 2012

      This was great - one of the best salads I have eaten! I used bacon instead of the ham. I did not add all of the dressing at first but set some aside as I was afraid the salad would end up too wet. After leting it sit overnight in the fridge, most of the dressing had been absorbed and I added the rest right before serving. I would do it this way again as it allowed the flavors to meld but kept the salad from being too dry when served the next day.
