Thank you to Bob’s Red Mill for sponsoring this post! When I cook dinner for family or friends, one dish I always prepare is scallion pancakes, 蔥油餅 (cong you bing in Mandarin). The word 餅 in Chinese roughly translates to “pancakes” in English, but scallion pancakes are not soft and fluffy. Rather, they’re pan fried so that the exterior turns crispy. In the center, you’ll find thin layers of dough and scallions. I wanted to make a version of my scallion pancakes that incorporates pumpkin, an homage to the fall and winter months. For these pumpkin scallion pancakes, I added pumpkin puree to the dough to give the pancakes a hint of sweetness. I also incorporated curry powder to make...

Kicking off our holiday series with this staple that just got an upgrade and we’re here for it. The fresh blanched beans are bright and toothsome and tender but not mush. The sauce is silky and rich, speckled with gruyere and shallot and umami, but not heavy or thick. There is deep rich flavor without any mushroooms involved. And, of course, there are still crispy onions on top because we are not monsters. They are a must. Okay, maybe green bean casserole hits the holiday table every year and you are like YES PLEASE, PASS IT HERE. Or maybe you see it and you’re like, hmm, mushy green beans and kinda gloppy gravy bits, NO THANKS (harsh, but we get...
We love pork tenderloins; they are very tender when prepared properly. They take just a short time to roast, depending on the size, and you can easily make them in a toaster oven, with potatoes roasted at the same time. No need to peel the potatoes, just cut them in chunks and marinate. If you have one of the oven meat thermometers this is the time to use it; as overcooking the meat makes it tougher. I also use an instant read thermometer; check a little before the time is up to see how close it is to done. This is a very nice easy-to-make special occasion meal for two, with the bonus of some slices of pork left for delicious...
