Hi Friends, Earlier this week I made a pot of this roasted butternut squash and garlic soup. It's a very simple recipe calling for mostly three ingredients —butternut squash, garlic, and stock — and what I love about the recipe is this: in the time it takes for the squash and garlic to roast in the oven, the stock — the vegetable stock — can materialize stovetop. If you've never made vegetable stock, I think you will be so pleased by the process and result: It's made with scraps! It's full of flavor! It's done in 45 minutes! Every time I make a pot of vegetable stock I am astonished by how well-seasoned it tastes in such a short period of time. Note: This recipe does call for whole vegetables (onion, carrot, celery) as opposed to scraps, but if you are good at saving your scraps — onion skins, carrot peels and ends, celery butts, etc. — moving forward, know that you can make your stock entirely from scraps. Store the scraps in the freezer. No need to thaw before plunging them into the stock pot.

A few weeks ago, while checking out at the grocery store, I impulsively purchased a holiday-bread themed magazine. What caught my attention was a homemade "take-and-bake" roll recipe. It called for baking the rolls at a very low temperature, 300ºF, just until the rolls reached an internal temperature of 175ºF; then cooling and freezing. When you were ready to bake, you simply popped that pan in the oven. As one of the most frequently asked questions I receive this time of year is "How can I...
You're making your pie dough! Go on, grab your butter. I'll wait for you. We're doing it together. Right now. I promise you it's easy. And it will feel so good tucking these rounds into your freezer, and crossing off that to-do! Foolproof Pie Dough Correction! Last week, I shared a recipe and method for making a double batch of the peasant bread. Many of you noticed that the flour amount was wrong: it should be 8 cups of flour (I had written 4).

I bought my turkeys! And made my bread for the stuffing! And stashed them both in the freezer. Friends, I never do these sorts of things, but I've decided: This is the year. This is the year we are going to be so organized that when Thanksgiving morning arrives, we're going to be bored — we're going to be sitting around with our crosswords, twiddling our thumbs, sipping our punch, wondering what else we could do: meal prep for the following week? Well, we can dream anyway. Last week, I shared...
