Buckwheat Crepes with Scrambled Eggs & Brie

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Oct 16, 2013 at 10:31pm

Gluten-free flours can be a significant pain in the neck to work with, with less than stellar results, which is why I don’t do a lot of gluten-free baking. Crepes, however, are an exception, given they require very little flour. Buckwheat flour crepes are my current favorite, a French classic that provides a hearty blanket…

Perfect Soft-Boiled Eggs

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jul 17, 2012 at 10:56am

When I was a little girl, I thought I’d really be a grown-up when I could eat soft-boiled eggs for breakfast, just like my dad. I was fascinated by the way he carefully tapped the top off with a knife, then sprinkled salt & pepper inside before scooping spoonfuls onto bites of seriously buttery toast…

Socca (Chickpea Flour Pancakes) with Fried Eggs & Spinach

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Dec 6, 2011 at 9:49pm

Somehow on my trip to Provence this summer I completely missed socca, or chickpea flour pancakes. I’m a little bit obsessed with them at the moment, hot off the griddle, topped with nothing more than a grind of black pepper. That’s how they’re served in Provence, as a snack, wrapped in paper, meant to be…

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Apr 10, 2011 at 1:19pm

Make the Chicken with Taklia (Coriander Seeds & Garlic Toasted in Butter) and Sauteed Spinach (posted below) for dinner, then have poached eggs for breakfast the next day. That’s pretty much the routine in this house. In fact, I saved the chicken pan drippings and used them to saute the cabbage and spinach in this…

Using Creme Fraiche Part I: Softly Scrambled Eggs with Chives

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Oct 21, 2010 at 12:07pm

Do you cook with creme fraiche? Non? Oh, you should, you should, it’s a breeze to use and makes everything it touches absolutely luscious. Creme fraiche is technically French-style cultured cream, somewhat similar to sour cream, but easier to cook with because it can be whipped as well as boiled without curdling. Even better, it’s…

Eggs Baked with Breadcrumbs, Scallions & Cream

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Feb 27, 2010 at 11:36am

These are technically shirred eggs, which are eggs baked whole out of the shell. But since I don’t like the word shirred, I’m just calling these baked eggs. This recipe is based on another beauty from Marion Cunningham’s The Breakfast Book (I’ve said before that it’s a lovely book; I still mean it). I riffed…

Butter Board…But Better (Gluten-Free)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Dec 1, 2022 at 2:26pm

If you’ve dined in my home, you’ve been offered radishes with a little butter and flaky salt as a snack. It’s delicious, nutritious, and simple to set out – win, win, and win in my book (and here on this blog). If I’m hosting a party, I like to up the ante a bit and…
