Roasted Corn Chowder
Roasted fresh corn and potato chowder is hard to beat on a chilly day. For a twist, add just a few ounces of smoked salmon and have an incredible British Columbia-inspired smoked salmon corn chowder. Had this in a little cafe on a dock in Vancouver, BC, while waiting for a sea plane to take me to the outer west coast of Vancouver Island for a late season salmon fishing trip. I spent several years playing around with it to recreate it. I don't know if I matched it exactly, but I have come up with this basic roasted corn chowder recipe that turns into a great smoked salmon chowder.
Apricot Noodle Kugel
This is an old family recipe for apricot noodle kugel that I entered in the 2001 Ventura County Fair and won 'Honorable Mention' in the pudding division. There was no kugel category, but the judges loved it and still wanted to honor me with a ribbon. Hope you enjoy it as well.
Chorizo Burger
These flavorful beef and chorizo burgers are topped with caramelized onions, a smoky red pepper and ranch sauce, and shavings of Manchego cheese atop sweet brioche buns.
