Looking for easy dinner ideas? Chef Kathy Gunst highly suggests grabbing a jar of Cherie Scott’s Mumbai to Maine Makhani sauce. Pair it with chicken, seafood, tofu or vegetables!
Kathy Gunst recalls a memorable time in July 2021 when she stayed with a dear friend who lives on a saltwater creek in Wellfleet. They headed out onto the mudflats and within 30 minutes, the pair had dug up more than 40 oysters.
My most potent food memories of 2021 center on family and friends, discovering new ingredients and giving back during these difficult times.After 15 months without seeing either of my daughters, we had a reunion. It was exactly two weeks after receiving our second vaccination. We masked up, got on a plane and flew to the West Coast where both of our daughters live. It was a truly sweet family gathering, with all of us feeling a deep sense of appreciation that we could be together again.
Another discovery that added new flavors to my home cooking were the spices, sauces and condiments made by, a company that bottles a variety of Middle Eastern foods. Their Preserved Lemon Paste can be added to salads, dressing, sauces and roasts. I rubbed a bit on a whole chicken, roasted it at high temperature and was amazed at the burst of lemon flavor. Their Matbucha with Olives and Mint is another powerhouse condiment made from Jersey tomatoes, olives, lemon paste, garlic, mint and turmeric.
I was cooking at home a lot. But cooking for these families who might otherwise not have much of anything to eat filled the early days of the pandemic with deep meaning. It was gratifying to know that my mac and cheese, vegetable burritos, chicken parmesan, roasted vegetable soup, apple pie, chocolate chip cookies and more would land on the plates of those who really needed them.
