In honor of our abundance of good food, and because I’ve been meaning to do some kind of food series for a while, this year I’m going to choose one food each week and try to make something interesting with it. My rules are going to be pretty simple:
- Foods must be grown in California.
- They must be minimally processed. Cheeses and sausages will be okay, usually, while canned chili would not be.
- They must undergo some transformation in the preparation process. It won’t be enough to simply toss some nuts on a salad.
I try to get the where, what, why, how on each food and share that along with an account of what I made. New entries are posted once a week, and I hope you enjoy them.
