We're all Ears.

This week we are coming at you with two types of ears. Fresh corns from Busa Farm (last of the season!) and Orecchiette (translation "little ears" in Italian) from Law of Pasta. With the recipes are we still keeping an iron grip on summer even though the days are getting shorter and the sweatshirts are being pulled from the drawer.

As much as the first changing leaves may fill some with existential dread, there is a bounty on the farms. Pears growing next to corn, eggplants hobnobbing with bright red peppers. Its a delightful mix to play with in the kitchen and pull yourselves away from the Nightly News. (speaking of existential dread...)

As always, we love to hear and see what you are making! Tag us in anything you share. We seeing what you make and festering in our own FOMOoF (Fear of Missing Out on Food).

Cheers!

RECIPES

Corn, Orecchiette and Kale:  If you happen to have ricotta on hand it is a nice addition (with a spritz of lemon juice at the end!). If not, turning in some freshly grated parm will do it.

Soy Glazed Salmon with Kale:  I see a nice weekend meal on the porch with our Fat Dog in my future. Easy and delicious.

Baked Pears: Just 4 ingredients! Well 5 if you add Ice Cream which we always do. Ok 6. I also like to add a touch of bourbon to the mix. A sip for the pears, a sip for me. A sip for the pears, a sip for me. Everyone wins.

Sausage stuffed Eggplant: With melted cheese. Don't forget the cheese. Lots of it.

Pasta with Kale and Goat Cheese: This recipe comes from the Queen herself (what's up Martha Stewart!?!) Fine, she calls for arugula but we think a thinly sliced kale would go perfectly.
