It’s officially been three months since our first post on Meet Me at the Long Table 🎉. I have to say, working on this project with my friends and family has brought me a lot of joy. So far eight lovely people have joined me here to share their experiences. I’m very much looking forward to what’s to come as we welcome new friends to sit with us. Today I have a recipe for you that is reflective of my summer spent in Roma last year. It is a delightful eggplant pizza. It’s an easy recipe, but takes a bit of patience. I hope you’ll give it a try. I’ll also be sharing the experience that led to me becoming a vegetarian and how that process changed my life in unexpected ways. Link to the recipe in the bio. See you at the Table today. #meetmeatthelongtable #pizzaaltaglio #melanzane #roma #threemonths #foodblog
Our weekly posting will be delayed one day as I’ve been busy eating my way through @terramadre_salonedelgusto today. Seriously - I had three desserts. See you tomorrow for some reflections on my decade of vegetarianism and a great pizza recipe. It’ll also be the three month anniversary of Meet Me at the Long Table, and I’m so happy to have shared so many stories from all of my friends so far. #meetmeatthelongtable #terramadre #eatfoodmostlyplants #iamsofull
I am so pleased to have a post by the ridiculously talented Ethan Plummer from @ethaninthekitchen on Meet Me at the Long Table today. Ethan takes us to Germany in his tale, where he began a friendship with a spunky Chinese student who introduces him to her cuisine - and opens a whole new culinary world for him. It’s a lovely story about how we end up learning things we least expect when we take our feet far from our doorstep. Ethan also shares a favorite recipe that he learned from his friend during his time in Germany. It is an impressive meal and one that you’ll want to run out and get the ingredients for immediately. Ethan’s husband Danila (@foodshotspgh) took the wonderful photos of the recipe. They will make you quite hungry indeed. See you at the Table tonight for something wonderful. Link in the bio, as always. #meetmeatthelongtable #bowlfood #foodphotography #chinesecooking #cookthisnow
It’s Market to Table Monday! I got this one all done before I left Ohio, so it’ll be the last one from the US for awhile. I’ll miss those autumn markets for sure! The recipe today is polenta two ways, featuring polenta from @shagbarkmill as well as vegetables from Snake Hill Farm and Hansen Greenhouse and a lovely cheese from @yellowhousecheese! All from @northunionfarmersmarket in Chagrin Falls and Shaker Square. The link to the recipe is in my bio. Buon appetito! #meetmeatthelongtable #markettotable #bowlfood #eatyourgreens #cheeeese #almostfall #knowyourfarmer #marketday
Just because I’m a sweaty mess after running to catch trains all day does not mean that you don’t get your Thursday post! We have a new recipe on @meetmeatthelongtable today for one of my favorite coffee drinks - caffè shakerato. I’ve had it often in Italy, but only ever seen it locally at my favorite Chagrin Falls coffee shop - @tamerabbitcoffee. The recipe will accompany a story about the havens in my life - and how to know when it’s time to leave. Hope you join me at the Table today. Link to the recipe is in my bio. #meetmeatthelongtable #thatbuzzthough #coffee #caffeshakerato #espresso #shakeit
It’s hard to believe that August is almost over - and that the first days of autumn are only a few weeks away. Today on @meetmeatthelongtable we are celebrating that transition with a recipe by my friend @alyseofwonderland for a ‘poisoned’ apple pie. Don’t worry, the only bane in the pie is bourbon and a mix of different spices that will definitely give you a lift. Alyse painstakingly perfected this recipe and I’m sure you will enjoy ringing in the season with it on your table next to a mug of tea (with more bourbon). In addition to her pie recipe, Alyse will share a perspective of her own life through the guise of the dark relationships in Snow White. It is an important read for anyone who has ever had difficulty with familial relationships and a reminder to look beyond the surface and into the depths of the circumstance in your life. Link to the recipe is in the bio. Come grab a slice and a read with us at the Table today. #meetmeatthelongtable #grimmfairytales #snowwhite #apples #applepie #autumn #falliscoming
