Add:
2 Tablespoons of Butter ~ Melt
Add:
1 Tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil ~ Swirl around

Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs 

Make the Honey Sauce: Combine in a small bowl whisk together, and set aside
1/3 Cup Honey
1/3 Cup Chicken Stock
1 TBL Rice Vinegar or Apple Cider Vinegar
1 TBL Soy Sauce

In a medium bowl add:
6-8 Chicken Thighs, Boneless and Skinless
add:
Salt and Pepper to Taste 
2 TBL Corn Starch (Gluten Free)

Toss the Chicken in the Cornstarch mixture until fully coated.

In a Large Non-Stick Skillet add:

Heat over High Heat
Add:
The Chicken Thighs, cook on one side until golden brown about 4-5 Minutes, 
Turn over and cook an additional 2-3 Minutes

Turn heat down to medium 
Add:
1 TBL Unsalted Butter or Ghee and melt
Add Minced Garlic to Taste, cook for 1 Minute so the garlic doesn't burn

Add the Honey Sauce to the Pan. Turn up the heat Medium/High and bring the Sauce to a Boil. 
Turn the heat down to a Simmer and cook 4-5 Minutes until the Sauce is Thickened and Reduced.
After a couple of minutes turn the Chicken over a few times so the Sauce is coating 
the entire pieces of Chicken. Cook until the Chicken is no longer pink inside. I use a 
Digital Thermometer inserted into the center, when it reaches an internal temperature of 165* 
this chicken is done. 

If you uses thicker pieces of Chicken it can take a few minutes longer to cook.


Serve the Chicken with Rice or Cauliflower Rice
I used Green Giant Riced Veggies ~ Cauliflower Risotto Medley

Patty Pan Squash AKA: Scallop Squash



Patty Pan Squash AKA: Scallop Squash

Every Summer I look forward to the different Summer Squashes. One of my favorites is Patty Pan Squash.
I buy mine at Local Farm Stand or Farmers Markets. I have never seen Patty Pan Squash at my 
local Food ~ Grocery Store.
Patty Pan Squash has a creamy texture and is simple to prepare to cook.
Look for bright Yellow,, some will have little spots of green. 
Buy the desired amount that you need.

Pattypan squash is a varietal group of summer squash notable for its round and shallow shape, 
and scalloped edges, somewhat resembling a flying saucer. The name "pattypan" derives from 
"a pan for baking a patty". 
Its French name, pâtisson, derives from a Provençal word for a cake made in a scalloped mould.


Wash and Towel dry the Patty Pan Squash.
Cut of the stem and other end.
Cut into Wedges ~ size of your choice
Heat a Large Non-Stick Skillet over medium/high heat
Melt 2 Tablespoons of Butter
Add 1 Tablespoon of EVOO
Add Minced Garlic to taste, cook for one minute.

Optional:
You can Sautee Chopped Onion, Bell Peppers and or Mushrooms for added flavor.
I kept mine basic and simple to accompany the meal I was cooking

Add the Patty Pans to the Skillet and toss around
Season with Salt and Pepper to taste. Add any other seasonings of choice.
I added Italian Seasoning.
Sauté over medium/high heat until Caramelized
Takes about 15 Minutes
Cook to desired firmness.
Use a fork to test the texture
Serve with Grated Parmesan Cheese

ENJOY!!

Fiddleheads a Wild Edible ~ How to prepare and cook Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads ~ A spring delicacy



Fiddleheads a Wild Edible ~ How to prepare and cook Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads ~ A spring delicacy


I'm always so excited when its Fiddlehead Season. In this video I will show you how easy it is to properly prepare and cook Fiddleheads. They are a Spring delicacy. 

I did buy these at my local Food Store, you can also forage them. Please make sure you know which type of Fiddleheads you are picking as the wrong ones are toxic. I learned about Fiddlehead foraging years ago from a  Wild Edible class I took.
I would not pick them unless you know 100% which Fiddleheads you are picking. 
I'm using Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads (Matteuccia struthiopteris) which are a Wild Edible    
These are the only Fiddleheads that I have been taught about that are edible.

DO NOT EAT RAW FIDDLEHEADS as they contain a trace amount of Toxics and you can get very sick.
They must be fully cooked before eating them.  
Make sure you are 100% sure which Fiddleheads they are if you Forage them yourself.
They are available at some Food Stores and Farmers Markets late April- May and sometimes early June. 

I don't know what other Fiddleheads are safe to eat besides Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads. Please do your own research if you plan to forage them in your area. 

Is it toxic? Eating raw or improperly cooked fiddleheads can cause symptoms of foodborne illness. The cause is likely an unidentified natural toxin in fiddleheads. 
Symptoms usually begin 30 minutes to 12 hours after ingestion and may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and headaches.

More Information on Fiddleheads:

****************************************************************************

Fiddleheads are Ferns before they unfurl into Full Ferns. 

All Ferns have a Fiddlehead Stage. These are Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads. These are the
only Wild Edible Fiddleheads that I was taught about in my area. Please research before Foraging Fiddleheads.
Fiddleheads are available for a short time ~ Usually Late April to May and sometimes early June.
Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads grown in New England from Rhode Island to Maine and into Eastern Canada.

DO NOT EAT RAW FIDDLEHEADS as they contain a trace amount of Toxics and you can get very sick. 
Make sure you are 100% sure which Fiddleheads they are if you Forage them yourself.
They are available at some Food Stores and Farmers Markets.

Fiddleheads taste like a combo of Broccoli, Asparagus and Spinach. They make a great side dish.


In the video I am using 3/4# of Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads.
Go thru the packages of Fiddleheads and remove any bad/rotten ones.
Place the Fiddleheads in a Bowl filled with Cold Water and swish around. Soak for a few minutes to remove
the dirt. Drain in a colander.

Cut the brown tips of each Fiddlehead.
Use a medium size Sauce Pan, fill with water and bring to a boil.
Add the Fiddleheads and boil to 10-15 Minutes or until Tender.
It is really important that the Fiddleheads are thoroughly cooked. The water will get very dark.

I like my Fiddleheads to be on the Softer side. I boiled mine for the full 15 minutes.
Drain in a Colander and rinse the Fiddleheads.

Heat a Non-Stick Skillet to Medium High
Add 1-2 Tablespoons of Butter
Minced Garlic to Taste
Add the Fiddleheads, Season with Salt and Pepper to Taste
Sauté for 3-5 Minutes

Optional: Which helps the flavors to pop and taste so fresh
Add a Splash of Lemon Juice and a little Lemon Zest

ENJOY!!

Radish Sprouts in a Mason Jar ~ Step by Step Instructions ~ Sprouting for Beginners



I started Sprouting over 3 years ago. It's very rewarding. The Sprouts taste great and are easy to grow.

In this video I will show you step by step directions on how to grow Radish Sprouts in a Mason Jar.


The Radish Seeds I use:

Rainbow Radish Sprouting Seeds Mix | Heirloom Non-GMO Seeds for Sprouting & Microgreens | Contains Red Arrow, Purple Triton & White Daikon Radish Seeds 1 lb. Resealable Bag | Rainbow Heirloom Seed Co.


Video Chapters ~ Radish Sprouts

0:00 Intro ~ How to Sprout Radish Sprouts in a Mason Jar

0:13 Mason Jar I use ~ 24 Ounce Dark Brown Jars

0:33 Screen Top for Mason Jars or use Cheesecloth with an Elastic

0:56 Soak Day ~ View of the Radish Seeds ~ Place 2 TBL in the Jar ~ Fill halfway with water ~ Rinse seeds to remove any particles ~ Then strain water

1:21 Radish Seeds have been rinsed ~ Fill jar halfway to three quarters full with water ~ Soak for 12 Hours or Overnight

1:33 I number each jar ~ Using Duct Tape as a label

1:43 Day 1 of Radish Sprouts ~ Seeds have soaked 12 Hours ~ Drain Water and rinse ~ View of Seeds

1:57 I use a Plate Holder to hold the Mason Jar at an angle upside down ~ Place in a small bowl 

2:26 Day 1 of Radish Sprouts ~ Leave for 12 Hours ~ Repeat rinse/drain/back in holder bowl

2:44 Rinse Sprouts twice a day ~ Approximately 12 hours apart

2:59 Day 2 Repeat process rinse/drain/back in holder-bowl ~ Twice a day

3:34 Day 3 of Radish Sprouts ~ Repeat process rinse/drain/back in holder bowl ~ Twice a day

3:54 Day 4 of Radish Sprouts ~ Repeat process rinse/drain/back in holder bowl ~ Twice a day

4:15 Day 5 of Radish Sprouts ~ Repeat process rinse/drain/back in holder bowl ~ Twice a day

4:37 Leave jar on Counter out of direct Sunlight

4:49 Day 6 of Radish Sprouts ~ Repeat process rinse/drain/back in holder bowl ~ Twice a day ~ Takes 5-7 days to Sprout the Radishes ~ The Temperature can affect how fast or slow they Sprout

5:03 Test taste the Radish Sprouts starting at day 5 ~ To check their taste and how long you want them to be ~ Personal preference how long you would like them to Sprout

5:16 Day 6 Harvest the Radish Sprouts ~ Place the Sprouts in a Salad Spinner ~ Fill with Water ~ Rinse and Drain ~  This helps remove a lot of the Hulls. There will still be some hulls left, they are ok to eat. If your don't have a Salad Spinner use a Strainer

5:42 Repeat Salad Spinner 2 more times and Spin Dry 

6:31 Day 6 After you Spin the Sprouts, place them on a few Paper Towels by a Sunny Window for 30 minutes to help them dry further and they will green up a little more

6:55 Place the Dry Radish Sprouts in a Container lined with Paper Towels

7:05 I don't use cloth towels for the Sprouts as I don't want the scent of Laundry Soup or Fabric Softener to get on the Sprouts

7:16 Label the Container and place in the Refrigerator ~ Sprouts last refrigerator 5-7 days (Always check to make sure they aren't slimy or smell bad)

7:27 My favorite lunch ~ I use my Homemade Flax Seed Crackers ~ Link below ~ Spread the Crackers with some Hummus ~ Top with Radish Sprouts ~ Serve with Cheese and Veggies
