Running With a Fork In My Mouth: Green Chile Caramel Apple Pie with Cheddar Crust

OK, I promised you some apple recipes, and I'm gonna start with a DeWalt Household classic. I created this recipe eight years ago for a cooking demonstration I did for the 4-H Club in West-Central Kansas. The event was sponsored in part by the National Pork Producers Council, so the original crust recipe was made with chilled lard. I have adapted the crust recipe (below) to suit the anti-pig-product contingent, but I must tell you that the…

Running With a Fork: Market Sigh

After a few promising visits a month ago to the Pecos Farmers Market, I have to say now that I have no clue what's going on with it. My last two Sunday jaunts to the market around 10 a.m. (it opens at 9 a.m.) were fruitless. And vegetable-less. And Everything-less. Seasonality is no longer an excuse. Either the market has collapsed under its own lack of organization, or purveyors have found other retail avenues to dispatch their goods. All I wanted was a radish. It isn't a market if growers… Continue

Word on the street is that Amavi chef David Sellers will be stepping down as Amavi chef, and picking up stakes for an Eastern U.S. locale. Replacing him, reportedly, is Chef Megan Tucker, of Inn and Spa at Loretto Pastry Chef fame. Tucker served as Sous Chef at Amavi previously. No timeline is set for this switcheroo.

Running With a Fork: The Final Product



Chef Michael Easton at Louis Moskow's La Stazione restaurant (Formerly The Railyard Restaurant and Saloon) cooked up a porchetta last Saturday, and served it with braised kale and Tuscan white beans. Utilizing certain cuts and offal, he crafted a fine herb-infused sausage stuffing in the pig's cavity, which he then trussed. The whole hog was slow-roasted and then served throughout dinner service. I tried some, and I was impressed by the meat's… Continue

This weekend, Louis Moskow's Railyard Restaurant & Saloon (530 S. Guadalupe St., 989-3300) is showing off its new stripes.
