Cornbread

April 7, 2021 By marketeditor

Recipe by Donna Bryson

Cornbread compliments roasted chicken and duck, braised greens, balsamic-glazed beets, and many other savory dishes. Or simply slather a slice with local honey or jam and enjoy as a treat.

Ingredients
*Ingredients available at the farmers’ market
● About 2 tablespoons fat (butter, oil, bacon drippings…)
● 1 cup flour
● 1 cup cornmeal*
● 1 teaspoon salt
● 2 teaspoons baking powder
● ½ teaspoon baking soda
● 2 eggs*, beaten
● 1 cup buttermilk* (if you choose to use regular milk*, omit baking soda and add another teaspoon of baking powder).

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. While the oven is heating, place fat in cast iron skillet or other baking dish and put skillet/baking dish in the oven.
3. In a bowl, mix dry ingredients with a fork, tossing them to get some air into them.
4. Add wet ingredients quickly and blend until batter is just a bit thicker than pancake batter. Add more milk, if needed.
5. Take the pan out of the oven, swirl sizzling fat quickly to coat the pan, and pour excess into the batter.
6. Mix well, then pour the batter into the hot pan.
7. Put the pan in the oven and bake until golden brown on top and a toothpick (or fork) poked into the center comes out clean (about 30-40 minutes).

October 5, 2020 By marketeditor

Adapted from Maryland Crab Cakes recipe by Jennifer Segal, onceuponachef.com
Servings: Makes 6 lions mane cakes, enough to serve 3 adults as the main course

Ingredients
*Ingredients currently available at the farmers’ market

For the lion’s mane cakes

● 2 large eggs*
● 2-1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
● 1-1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
● 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
● 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
● 1/4 teaspoon salt
● 1/4 cup finely diced celery*, from one stalk
● 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley*
● 1 pound Lions Mane*, chopped into small pieces
● 1/2 cup panko
● canola oil, for cooking

For the tartar sauce
● 1 cup mayonnaise
● 1-1/2 tablespoons sweet pickles*, diced small
● 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
● 1 tablespoon minced red onion*
● 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice, to taste
● Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions
For the lion’s mane cakes
1. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean-up.
2. Combine the eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, Old Bay, salt, celery, and parsley in a large bowl and mix well. Add the Lions Mane and panko; using a rubber spatula, gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Shape into 6 cakes (each about ½ cup) and place on the prepared baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This helps them set.
3. Preheat a large nonstick pan to medium heat and coat with canola oil. When the oil is hot, place the cakes in the pan and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Be careful as oil may splatter. Serve immediately with tartar sauce or a squeeze of lemon.

For the tartar sauce
Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
