Honey can vary significantly in color and flavor based on the flower the bees have been gathering nectar from.

Farmers are already seeding onions in greenhouses. They’re a cold-hardy crop, and can go into the ground early, later bringing us green onions, round young spring onions, and long-storing white and red types. It’s these last, of course, that we are still enjoying even as next year’s crop is planted. [continue reading]

The invention of “baby cut” carrots in 1986 boosted US carrot consumption enormously—and that’s a good thing, all told, for large carrot farmers and for our nutritional intake. But return to giving your carrots a quick scrub at the sink, and you can put your carrot dollars in a local farmer’s pocket, and [continue reading]

Panna Cotta is a very simple pudding, made with milk or cream and little bit of gelatin. It’s smooth and delicious and a good base for seasonal embellishment. In February in New England, make it with a healthy dose of maple syrup, and add a festive, red and fruity garnish of sugared [continue reading]

Sweet potatoes store beautifully, making them a great way to eat more local in the winter. My father calls them “American’s most under-rated vegetable,” and although I disagreed with him as a child, I’ve come around. A couple of sweet potatoes, thrown into the oven while you’re cooking something else, make a [continue reading]

I am a fan of winter squash soup. I like how it’s possible to vary the flavors—add a celeriac, for example, or frozen peppers and coconut milk. Alas, my family does not like squash soup as much as I do, and for them I’m going to try squash chips. Most recipes recommend [continue reading]
