Why Amazeballs Lasagna Always Takes Time to Make #BornOnTheFarm

August 15, 2016 By Food Retro

Garfield had it right: one of the world’s best foods is lasagna, and the world’s best lasagna is a homemade labour of love. If 30 minute dinners are the primary fodder for your existence, you’re totally missing out, because 30 minute dinners require a lot of extra help to taste amazing… usually in the form…

Creamy Mushroom Pasta (and Men Belong in the Kitchen, Too)

May 2, 2016 By Olga

Anne wrote a great post about the role of women in the kitchen, giving it a positive spin “Reasons You Should Be in the Kitchen.” But it got me thinking that men belong in the kitchen too. In fact, as the saying goes, “everyone belongs in the kitchen, the kitchen has food,” but the fact…

Japanese Ramen Noodles from Scratch (+ Other Italian White Pastas)

April 17, 2015 By Food Retro

Someone once asked me when I did my realfood instant cup noodles knockoff why I used spaghetti noodles. Well, the reason why is that real Japanese ramen noodles made from scratch and freshly-made Italian pasta have more than a little in common. Fresh ramen noodles are produced from a blend of high and low gluten flour, eggs, salt,…

10 Minute Fettucini Alfredo (It’s Real, Dude!)

February 23, 2015 By Food Retro

Today’s recipe title is brought to you by my six year old son. I think, with a little practice, he’ll be as good as I am at this. Since I’m still catching up with holiday backlog, I’m again going to direct you to one of my relatively recent recipes on Dinner – It’s Not Rocket…

Jar Noodles (Or, How to Make Your Own Instant Ramen)

January 12, 2015 By Food Retro

If you remember and liked my post about vegetable bouillon, then you possibly remember that I was hinting there was a method to my madness. Behold, the end result: the real reason why I was figuring out vegetable bouillon (although to be honest I like using it for making regular soup, too). It’s an integral…

Creamy Fettuccini with Ricotta and Parsley

August 5, 2014 By Food Retro

It’s been crazy busy lately, and I’ve been trying to clean out the chest freezer for the annual defrost (which I happened to miss last year, and possibly the year before, and *maybe* the year before that as evidenced by the package of bacon I found in the bottom from 2010). Hey, it was in the…

Easy, Fresh Spinach & Spelt Pasta

February 24, 2014 By Food Retro

My food processor might just be my new best friend. I mean I love my KitchenAid stand mixer too, but I might just love my food processor just a little bit more–at least, until I get the pasta attachments for it. Then those two will be a love match. Pasta’s been on my to-do list…
