Rising Up — The World in a Crust of Bread

January 18, 2021 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

“The world is all messed up,” observed Martin Luther King Jr. on April 1968, the night before he was assassinated. It’s still messed up. It’s impossible to undo the pain caused by a single act of violence, let alone the waves of terrorism across the globe. But as we honor King on his birthday, we…

Cornbread

November 23, 2020 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

vegan cornbread

This is my go-to cornbread recipe, whether I’m feeding 30 for Thanksgiving, or just my husband and me on a rainy Tuesday night. It’s quick and easy to make, crusty on the top, fluffy inside, buttery-tasting through and through, and vegan, of course.   How are you celebrating Thanksgiving? Are you celebrating? Covid has stolen…

Carving Pumpkin, Carving Out Tradition | Pumpkin Bread

October 26, 2020 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

Pumpkin carving is a tradition worth having and when you are done, you can turn your handiwork into something worth eating. So long soggy pumpkin bread that’s decidedly un-pumpkiny. I’ve figured out how to bake pumpkin into the kind of bread that would make even the scariest Halloween pumpkin smile. This Halloween, like so much…

Vegan Cat Head Biscuits with Spinach and Mushroom Gravy (and no Cats)

August 31, 2020 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

cat head biscuits and gravy

Cat head biscuits are a southern staple. They are tall, fluffy and traditionally made with lard–but you won’t find lard in my Vegan Cat Head Biscuits. Instead, we are using chilled vegan butter, and you won’t believe the light and flaky texture. Instead of traditional sausage gravy, I’ve added a plant-based spinach and mushroom gravy….

Life (and Granny Cake) During Wartime: What a Vintage Recipe Can Teach Us About Doing More With Less

July 27, 2020 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

Miami is the COVID epicenter now, and everyone’s on edge.  It feels a little like wartime. Not all wars are fought on the battlefield.  Some are fought — and won — on the home front. So maybe it’s no coincidence that when researching ideas for my conscious cookery series, I came across a vintage wartime…

Calling Forth Morning in America

June 22, 2020 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

I originally wrote this Huffington Post piece on the eve of the 2016 election, urging everyone to vote.  I even embedded video of Maya Angelou from 1993, reciting her poem, “On the Pulse of Morning” at Bill Clinton’s presidential inauguration.  It all seems almost quaint now, with a pandemic, systemic racism called out at last,…

March 19, 2020 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

We need to keep going.  I mean, just look at your produce.  It hasn’t stopped.  Fresh fruits and vegetables add brightness, flavor…

My Favorite People, My Favorite Recipes: Jamie Schler

July 29, 2019 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

I first heard about Jamie Schler a few years ago from culinary colleagues.  They spoke of her with a sense of awe — come on, run off to France, fall in love, open a hotel?  Who gets to do that?  Even her blog Life’s a Feast bespeaks a charmed life.  Then this summer, I got…

When Irish Eyes are Crossed

March 11, 2019 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

In preparation for St. Patrick’s Day this Sunday, I’m glad to share my recipe for Irish soda bread — a little untraditional, but totally vegan, totally yummy. In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, I made Irish soda bread. Sort of. When I went from vegetarian from vegan some years back, what I missed and thought…
