1 sandwich, 2 recipes, 3 miles

What a busy day this has been! And it’s not even 3PM

:mrgreen: this !

IMG_2047Blog

Despite the fact that I’m a food blogger (well, one of my many hats), I never seem to find the time to bake or do special food projects. When I write about food three times per day, the last thing I want to do in my free time is dirty up the kitchen again right after posting lunch! But I’ve been itching to be creative, so this morning seemed like a wide open window for dirtying dishes.

Especially dishes I could lick clean!!

My first project was a batch of Lemon Rosemary Biscotti!

IMG_2059Blog

Wayyyyy back in the day – two years ago to be precise – I won a batch of Earl Gray Biscotti from Sarah of Tales of Expansion. I’ve been thinking about them ever since!!

I tweaked the original recipe to include rosemary and lemon instead of Earl Gray, and they came out absolutely divine!

Lemon craving averted!

IMG_2015Blog

See Sarah’s original recipe here

Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tbsp any-kind-of sugar
  • 2 tbsp herb of your choice (chopped fresh rosemary for me)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 chopped dates
  • 1.5 tbsp cold butter, cut into pieces
  • 1.5 tbsp canola oil

IMG_2008Blog

Pulse the dry together, add the wet, and pulse a bit more until a nice dough comes together.

BiscottiProcessBlog

It will be really dry and crumbly, so you’ll want to mash it all together into a ball before molding into a square snake. This was harder to do than it seems, but possible! Mine was tiny – only about a thumbnail cross section, so you can shape it however you like – or double the recipe for bigger pieces.

Wrap the snake in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.

BiscottiFormBlog

After chilling, slice biscotti and bake at 375* for 8-10 minutes.

BiscottiBlog

The thumbnail squares are awesome, but the two BALLS I made are even better!! I’d recommend forming the dough into balls and baking for 10 minutes. Divine!

BiscottiTrioBlog

I had one after lunch!

Project #2: Honey Crunch Peanut Butter

IMG_2045Blog

Possibly the best peanut butter I’ve ever had!?! Gritty, crunchy, drippy, salty AND sweet. All in one!

I used a bag of Trader Joe’s Honey Roasted Peanuts as the base. This only cost me $2.99 – not bad for a completely customizable product – especially in texture.

IMG_2026BlogIMG_2025Blog

Process:

  • 3 cups honey roasted peanuts
  • 1 tsp canola oil
  • 1/2 cup more peanuts pulsed in at end for crunch

HoneyCrunchBlog

IMG_2044BlogBlog

It’s too bad I don’t have kids to lick my bowls for me – I was forced to clean the pot myself!

IMG_2041Blog

After my kitchen projects, Matt and I went hiking! 
 IvyHikeBlog

Just 10 minutes from our house is Ivy Creek Natural Area – 6 miles of nicely marked trails. So cool this is so close to home!

Note that they said no jogging – guess we’ll be forced to walk!

IMG_0945Blog FallentreeBlog

We covered about 3.5 miles, but the up and down of hills was enough to make my legs pretty tired! [My blisters were fine with thin socks and wide tennis shoes, thank goodness]

IMG_0951Blog

We paused on this bench for a while to take in nature. I can’t remember the last time I just SAT and LISTENED!

IMG_0961Blog

Once back at home, we were hungry for lunch despite the peanut butter + biscotti snacking!

IMG_2079Blog

I attempted to re-create the tempeh sandwich that Faith had on Thursday at Sprout.

We mixed molasses and soy sauce (1 tbsp to 1/2 tbsp)

IMG_2062Blog

IMG_2060Blog

And pan-seared the tempeh slabs, topping them with the sauce at the end.

IMG_2063Blog

The sandwich was good – with sprouts and spinach – but not nearly as good as Sprout’s version!

IMG_2078Blog

Side of orange – shared with the husband

IMG_2073Blog

IMG_2065Blog

IMG_2067Blog

Time for a nice shower, laundry, grocery shopping and nachos!

    AMEN to that!

    I often wonder how you post 3 times a day…just b/c by the time one meal and blogging about it is done, it’s about time to do the next one! Let alone “creative” stuff…so thank you for taking the time today to make the biscotti.

    And the nut butter. THANKS For posting the minute by minute visual of it. That is sooo helpful what the stages looked like. Love those peanuts from TJs. And also love the placemat.

    Molasses tempeh, nice!

    Trails and hiking…wonderful.

    AWESOME post, Kath 🙂

    Love tempeh (not the price tag though…). What “kind” do you normally get? I’ve noticed here they have a “3-grain”, “Quinoa” and “Seaweed” kind; I’m not sure what mine has been – just “soybean” I think…

    I love lemon desserts — and I laughed at the “form snake” and “wrap snake”. Sounds delicious though.

    And how hilaious that there is “no jogging allowed” there. But sometimes it is nice to just walk and really enjoy the scenery!

    Oh, Kath! The biscotti recipe looked good, but they were so un-biscotti shaped. =( My italian heart is sad! If you just wanted little balls and squares, well, to each their own! But otherwise, shape it in a loaf, bake it until just golden, pull it out, slice into traditional biscotti shape, then bake again until nice and toasty and cripsy! It is kind of a pain, haha, so I can see the appeal of biscotti squares.

    I have a little tiny 4 cup cuisinart food processor…I’m wondering if I could do nut butter in it! The honey roasted nut butter sounds delicious!

    I like the flavor profile you chose for those biscotti. That’s one of the best parts of home cooking–or baking–in my opinion: coming up with food and flavor combos that are far more creative than the typical few offered in restaurants.

    Made the peanut butter today (we don’t have a TJ’s in Colorado so I had to wait until I went on a trip somewhere that did so I could pick up the peanuts) – it’s amazing! Thanks so much for the tip! Sadly, it burned out the motor on my mini-prep though 🙁 I don’t have a food processor but I loved my first experience making nut butter so much I think I’ll be picking one up soon (and replacing the mini prep).

    I so love using Trader Joe’s Honey Roasted Nuts for peanut butter, but I never thought of adding a pinch more nuts to make it crunchy! I made almond peanut butter last night and got a stomach ache from licking the bowl. lol I’m going to try the biscotti, they look good!! Thanks for sharing!!

    FINALLY! A nut butter recipe that works (as in, doesn’t harden after one day). Thank you SO SO SO SO MUCH!!! It is excellent and will be a regular in my pantry.

    Hi Kath,

    I made my PB as you did, and it was drippy, but after a while it starts to clump, or should I say lose it’s drippiness. What do you do to keep it drippy? Or doesn’t it last that long? Do you refrigerate or keep in a dark cupboard? Thanks!

      Sounds like your oil separated over time. You could either…stir it vigorously every time you have some or refrigerate it, which will help with separation but will make it harder. Almost all drippy nut butters are somewhat hard by the bottom..

    Amazing!! Love how simple and tasty this turned out! I’m not even a big peanut butter fan, but this salty/sweet/crunchy combo is perfect 🙂

    Hey Kath! Sorry if this has already been asked, but do you think a Vitamix is good for making homemade nut butters?? Just bought one myself. I think you have one so was just wondering if you’ve tried it. Thanks!

    I can do that job – licking the processor bowl!
    I’m a kid-like. (*_*)
