Michelada Mussels with Burst Cherry Tomatoes

September 15, 2021 No Comments

Mussels may be one of my favorite express foods. They are surprisingly simple to prepare yet somewhat opulent, and unsurprisingly easy to eat. They pair well with fries, salad, and my personal favorite food group – bread. In the summer, they make for excellent patio company, and in the winter they do very well cozied up with your favorite pasta. Mussels also cook in break-neck time and are a compatible vehicle for all sorts of produce. Take today’s Michelada Mussels, for instance. This dish is an excellent way to use up the last of the season’s best cherry tomatoes without overwhelming them.

It’s time for another installment of my ongoing video series Overthinking Classics. Today, I’m tackling Caesar Salad. I chose this much-beloved salad as my next subject because I felt it dovetailed nicely with the previous episode, which covered the ins and outs of crafting the perfect Roast Chicken. Chicken Caesar Salad anyone? If you do decide to go all out and make both, I suggest saving the breast meat from your roast chicken for this salad. I’m usually a dark meat person but in the case of salads, I feel white meat is the best option. So let’s dive into this Caesar Salad.

For many people, this week marks a return to reality. The return of structure in the form of schedules and appointments, bedtimes, and wake-up calls. And while it is sad to bid adieu to the party atmosphere of summer, I must admit, I am keen to return to something a little more routine. But when it comes to the kitchen, nothing has changed. Food offers little pockets of jubilation, and I for one am more than happy to let the good times roll. So in the spirit of jovial cooking and in celebration of the Jewish New Year, I’m serving up these Honey Apple Challah Tarts.

The evenings are starting to roll in earlier with a distinct chill in tow. I am equal parts depressed and elated by this shift. I am, of course, sad summer is drawing to a close. But I’m also excited to wear sweaters I forgot I owned and tuck into bowl after bowl of soup. I don’t, however, want to rush summer out the door. As a Canadian, I know what waits for me come December and it’s depressing as hell. But with this Street Corn Chowder, I can have the best of both worlds.
