recipe

have a berry, happy 4th

Make your own culinary fireworks this holiday with local, seasonal fruits. There’s nothing quite as spectacular as a summery, rich trifle dense with angel food cake and whipped cream. Here’s just one recipe.  

california bruschetta

Bay seniors who have been wondering what food trend comes next after kale and coconut water should be relieved that it’s a lazy cook’s dream. Avocado toast, which you will find on hip menus like the Frog Hollow Farm Café in the Ferry Building could hardly be simpler. Mash an avocado with lemon and salt, […]

last minute dessert

Bay seniors with a few free hours tomorrow, Friday the 30th, might want to squeeze into the croquembouche class at the CozyMeal cooking school in the Marina. The Geezer apologizes for the late notice but this could become your holiday show-stopping recipe. It’s the classic architectural French dessert, a tower of choux puffs filled with […]

cold comfort

Bay seniors feeling indolent but hungry in the summer heat will enjoy this melon soup which takes about 5 minutes. Served cold in glasses to avoid the labor of a soup spoon. Serves six. In a Cuisanart combine: Whole melon and cantaloupe without the rinds 1 tbs olive oil 1 chopped garlic clove 1 chopped […]

It requires frying, something many local seniors try to avoid, but really can you think of any better way to […]

deliciously DIY

Bay seniors, despite the avalanche of inventive new ice cream shops to choose from, can make their own spectacular scoops at home. This recipe requires no custards, eggs or special machinery. It takes a couple of minutes and freezes in a couple of hours. Juice and grated rind of one lemon (or 2 limes) 1 […]

new leaf

Bay seniors who are becoming fed up with kale’s current ubiquity on local menus might reverse themselves after trying this terrific recipe for the overly popular roughage. It’s a vegetarian burrito with the tortilla wrap replaced by a large leaf of kale courtesy of my favorite interior designer. Grind 2 cups of walnuts Combine with […]

best hot chocolate

Bay seniors who find no sweet satisfaction in soy lattes should try this surefire recipe adapted from Tyler Florence. 3 ounces (tablet or cone) Mexican chocolate…..3 cups milk……2 tablespoons sugar  …….Pinch salt…..6 cinnamon sticks (preferably Mexican canela), for serving Directions:Using a sharp knife, break up the chocolate into smaller pieces. In a saucepan, combine the chopped […]
