According to my sister, it’s not de rigueur to mess with classical Italian recipes. According to my stomach, it never hurts to bring down the calories while retaining superb taste. So goodbye classical risotto, hello Mushroom Quinoa Risotto — perfect, hot or cold. Two tubs of Costco mushrooms and a family reunion led to this wonderful dish. FYI, Costco…

Oat Brancakes – for Spring Cleaning

March 31, 2013 By Jittery Cook 6 Comments

The world could use a good spring cleaning. How about a peaceful transition to democracy from dictatorship? Watch Pablo Larraín‘s ‘No‘ to see an artistic interpretation of despot ousting in in Chile two decades ago. We can spring clean our countries, our cities and our homes. Let’s start today with ourselves. Nothing spring cleans like oat bran–“but you have…

March 18, 2013 By Jittery Cook 13 Comments

My mom always did accuse me of gilding the lily. If one thing is very good and a second thing is very good, I figure that joining them together will make something very, very good. This recipe can be as simple as steamed rice, steamed rice with a potato crust, or if you are looking…

Roasted Stuffed Eggplant – Original!

January 30, 2013 By Jittery Cook 13 Comments

I’m in a pre-Super Bowl panic. I don’t know who’s playing. I’m not a football fan. I’m just concerned about making a party dip to remember. I grew up on the sour cream packaged onion soup dip.

January 27, 2013 By Jittery Cook 6 Comments

How often do you wonder about your very own parallel universe? Do you let your mind wander to other possible lives you could be living?
