Smothered Snap Beans
They’re reliant, easy, delicious, and comforting. With their subtle smoky flavor, they pair well with almost any main dish by bringing out the deeper notes of the other dish.
Tumeric and Herb Millet with Roasted Vegetables and a Poached Egg
Millet is the perfect wingman to shallots and garlic which are at the forefront of flavor but is grounded by turmeric and rosemary. The roasted vegetables bring a bit of sweetness and spice (thanks to ginger and cayenne) and a runny egg creates a richness you don’t want to miss.
Duck Breast with Orange Marmalade and Bacon
I’ve had plenty of duck in my adult life, but none of them measured up to camp duck of my youth. It’s smoky, earthy, and fresh and has plenty of texture contrast.
