Potatoes Colcannon

Potatoes Colcannon

Potatoes Colcannon is an Irish dish of mashed potatoes and kale or cabbage. In this version, we've added turnips for a boost of nutrition and flavor. This is a very adaptable recipe – sees notes below for other recipe modification ideas.
Colcannon is traditionally served on Halloween (a holiday with ancient Celtic origins) and is one of many fortune-telling foods served that day. A coin, ring or other item was often hidden inside and whatever trinket you found in your potatoes predicted your future. A coin meant wealth in the coming year, a ring meant you were soon to wed, etc… Due to the risk of choking or swallowing foreign objects, we don't recommend this practice!

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds potatoes Russet (or Yukon Gold – see notes below) peeled and cut into chunks – 2 quarter; dice or larger
  • 1 pound turnips peeled and cut into 1 quarter; chunks (optional)
  • 6 Tablespoons butter divided
  • 1 bunch scallions sliced thinly
  • 1 bunch kale stems removed, leaves washed and chopped
  • 1/2 cup milk as needed
  • salt and pepper to taste, plus a scant dusting of nutmeg, if desired

Instructions
 

  • In a medium pot, cover the potatoes and turnips with salted cold water. Bring to a boil and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, until tender. Drain well. Transfer to a large bowl, dot with 3 Tbs. of butter and mash coarsely.
    Mashing Potatoes
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 3 Tbs. of butter over medium-high heat. Add scallions and cook for 3-5 minutes to soften, stirring frequently. Add kale and cook for another 6 minutes more over medium heat, stirring frequently.
  • Add kale/scallion mixture to the mashed potatoes and turnips. Stir sparingly to combine. If mixture is light and dry, add milk a bit at a time, stopping to test after each addition. Add spices and enjoy!

Notes

  • Yukon Gold potatoes, with skin on, may substitute for Russets. Due to high moisture content, milk may not be needed.
  • If turnips are not available, substitute additional potatoes.
  • Onions or leeks may substitute for scallions – quarter (lengthwise for leeks) and slice thinly – roughly 1.5 cups.
  • Well-dried cabbage may substitute for kale.

“Three Sisters” Stew

November 1, 2020 Jennifer Recipes
Winter Squash Three Sisters Stew

“Three Sister’s” Stew

"Three sisters" is so-called because Native Americans traditionally interplanted corn, beans and squash in the same mound. The 3 thrive together because corn provides a natural pole for the beans to climb, beans fix nitrogen in the soil, and squash leaves shade the ground to retain moisture and prevent the growth of weeds.

Equipment

  • 1 vegetable peeler
  • 1 soup pot
  • 1 knife
  • 1 sheet pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 butternut squash (large) about 2 pounds
  • 2 Tbs. oil
  • 1 onion medium chopped
  • 2 to 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 14 oz cans tomatoes 14 to 16 oz. diced tomatoes, with liquid
  • 1 can pinto beans drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups corn kernels from 2 large or 3 medium ears, or frozen
  • 1 cup low-sodium vegetable stock or water
  • 1 or 2 small hot peppers seeded and minced, or one 4-ounce can chopped mild green chilies
  • 2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 2 tsp. chili powder
  • 1 tsp. oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Wash squash and pierce squash with a knife in several places. Wrap squash in aluminum foil and place on a sheet pan in the oven. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. The goal is to partially cook the squash so that it is easy to peel and cut.
  • When cool enough to handle, peel the squash. Cut in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds and fibers (clean the seeds for roasting, if you'd like). Then cut into large dice.
  • Heat the oil in a soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until the onion is golden.
  • Add the squash and all the remaining ingredients (except the salt and pepper) and bring to a simmer. Simmer gently, covered, until all the vegetables are tender, about 20 to 25 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • If time allows, let the stew stand for 1 to 2 hours before serving, then heat through as needed. The stew should be thick and very moist but not soupy; add additional stock or water if needed. Enjoy!

Called winter squash because they can be stored for use during the winter. They are harvested mature, when the skin and seeds have become hard. Some varieties are pumpkin, Hubbard, butternut, acorn, and spaghetti squash. Low in calories, fat-free, rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber. The darker the flesh, the higher the amount of Vitamin A.

  • Top with all your cut vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, carrot, zucchini)
  • Prepare dressing by adding all ingredients to a glass jar and shaking well.
  • Add the dressing to the salad and toss to coat.
  • Store leftover salad separate from dressing if keeping for later use. The salad will keep in the refrigerator (not dressed) for 2-3 days. Store the leftover dressing for 3-4 days in the refrigerator. The oil will harden when cold, so let it sit out for a few minutes to warm and shake well before using.

Charred Green Beans

Skillet-Charred Green Beans with Salsa

August 9, 2020 Jennifer Recipes

Skillet-Charred Green Beans with Salsa

Try this easy to prepare green bean salad with a little kick from the salsa. Green beans are a common staple in households across the country. They go by several names, some of the most popular ones being snap beans and string beans. Despite their name, however, they’re not always green. The green bean is a type of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), and it can be yellow or purple, too.  The legumes are full of antioxidants, including vitamin C, flavonols, and quercetin. These antioxidants fight free radicals in the body, which helps to reduce cell damage and may help to lower your risk of certain health conditions.  Adapted from Cooking Light
