Recipe: Creamy nettle soup

May 29, 2024 Erica M. Davis 3 Comments

This stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) soup is quick, easy to make, and full of flavor. A lot of nettle soups are made with potato but I think the nettle flavor is more noticeable without, so I use cauliflower for the creamy consistency instead. The recipe is vegan, oil-free, … [Read more...]

April 19, 2013 Erica M. Davis 1 Comment

It’s markdown season at the grocery store, now that the tourists are in absentia for a while, joined by the locals who migrate to parts warmer during mud season too. So it’s time for the good deals—such as the $1 bag of slightly soft “Red Skin Yellow Flesh Colorado Sunrise” … [Read more...]
