Last Wednesday I had the perfect meal. It began with gruyere donuts, stayed a while with a rye flight and a deconstructed rabbit pot pie, and ended with gougeres filled with mornay sauce. Yes, the each bookend to this perfect meal was gruyere. All bookends should be gruyere-based, as it turns out. Just imagine, beginning [...]

Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Polenta.
Sometimes you want a bowl of comfort for breakfast and what’s more, you want it savory. None of that creamy oatmeal drizzled with maple syrup and topped with brown sugar nonsense. Nope, none of that. Though that can be nice too, I’m never one to knock sugar… But sometimes, what you’d rather have is a [...]

White Bean Tuna Salad.

Curried Quinoa Salad.
Protein, protein, where are you? How do I get you on my plate? Like most college students, in addition to being generally lost and blundering through day-to-day life, I am constantly in need of more protein. Carbs and sugars, being possibly the easiest things to both procure and make, are never in short supply. Fruits [...]

Celeriac Soup.
Can’t stop, won’t stop. Must make soup. For this week’s Soup Sundays—which have apparently become a thing here at Bakelist—is a soup that is near to my heart, and oh so dear to my stomach. Celeriac, or celery root, soup, that thick, creamy puree with the sharp, nutty taste of celery. Sounds weird? Oh, it [...]
