Show update for The Kitchen Counter Podcast, October 2023.

Show Update October 2023

On today's episode I share a recipe for one of my favorite refreshing summer dishes: gazpacho. Coming from the south of Spain, gazpacho features fresh seasonal tomatoes, peppers, and cucumber. Served as a soup or a drink, this recipe will save you from heating up the kitchen and cool you down at the same time. https://kitchencounterpodcast.com/231 Connect with the show at: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kitchencounterpodcast  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kitchencounterpodcast Twitter: @TKCpodcast Email: feedback@kitchencounterpodcast.com

Gazpacho

Vinegar has been around thousands of years, and it is one of the most important sources of acid to a home cook. Even though it's common, it can be a bit mysterious. In this episode I dive into what vinegar is, how it's made, and some common uses for the sour superstar in the home cook's kitchen. https://kitchencounterpodcast.com/230 Connect with the show at: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kitchencounterpodcast  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kitchencounterpodcast Twitter: @TKCpodcast Email: feedback@kitchencounterpodcast.com

A Sour Taste

On today's smorgasbord episode we talk about foxes in the backyard (that is not a euphemism), and upcoming travel to New Orleans & Cajun Country. Need a sweet and refreshing drink for your next summertime get-together? Pineapple punch might just fit that order.

Smorgasbord June 2023

On today's episode we visit with author Matt Moore about his new book "Butcher on the Block: Everyday Recipes, Stories, and Inspirations from Your Local Butcher and Beyond." Matt likes to say that sometimes to get the best recipes, just talk to your butcher. This book is a reflection of that, with stories from local butchers across the country and a heaping helping of recipes to go along with. We'll hear Matt's thoughts on the state of local butcher shops in the U.S., his favorite cut of meat for grilling, and some tips for visiting your local butcher for the first time. https://kitchencounterpodcast.com/228 Connect with the show at: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kitchencounterpodcast  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kitchencounterpodcast Twitter: @TKCpodcast Email: feedback@kitchencounterpodcast.com
