Hopping John

December 27, 2021 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

I like a clean house. I just don’t like cleaning it. But I do it, anyway. This past week, though, I’ve been in a cleaning frenzy, a scrub-the-grout, tidy-the-drawers kind of cleaning. I think I’m trying to scour away 2021 and usher in a shiny new year full of possibilities. Hope it works. I’m also…

Speed Sabzi (Vegan Ghormeh Sabzi)

April 5, 2021 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

Ghormeh Sabzi in a bowl. 

Ghormeh Sabzi is a well-loved Irani herb stew. This vegan version is loaded with black eyed peas rather than beef or lamb.

Lovely for Lent Black-Eyed Peas With Fennel and Kale

February 26, 2009 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

Some people (and you know who you are) do not share recipes.   It’s time to give, darlings. Wouldn’t you rather be known as a big-hearted person who shares the wealth?   And even if you write out your prized recipe in painstaking detail, your friend’s version will come out different.  Different stove, different cookware,…
