Edamame toast is the new avocado toast. There, I declared it. However, before I talk about edamame toast, let’s spend a second on avocado toast, shall we? No one really knows who invented avocado toast. Its insane rise in popularity most likely was boosted by Instagram posts and carefully staged photo ops. Truth be told, avocado toast has been around since the sixties and most likely been around forEVER in warmer clients where avocados grow wild. What I do know is that avocado toast is one of the most perfect foods of all times. It is comfort food, down-to-earth food, sexy food, and extremely deliciously satisfying food.

I do, however, have one teensy-tiny complaint about avocado toast… it requires a ripe avocado. That means if you have a hankering you must have an avocado 1) available, 2) ripe and 3) enough to share.

So, I’d like to propose a toast… to edamame toast.

Friends, I’ve got to tell you… it tastes virtually the same as delicious avocado toast and you never have to worry about whether or not you have it 1) available, 2) ripe or 3) enough to share.  All you have to do is cook frozen edamame according to instructions, throw it in a food processor and puree with a few simple ingredients. See recipe below and see for yourself how simple making edamame toast is.

The idea for edamame toast came to me while recreating a dish that Taylor’s Steakhouse (in Dumas, Arkansas) created for this month’s Kitchen | Fields Table Tour. Their featured dish is a blackened duck breast with a wine reduction raspberry chipotle and soy puree. I knew I had to make this myself and played around with my own version of wine reduction apricot chipotle sauce.

A few whirls, grinds, and pulses of the food processor produced a creamy edamame soy puree. I made a mental note of the consistency and thought, “tomorrow, I’m making this chunkier and putting it on toast.”

And so I did.

It is my new fav.

So, next time you’re at the grocery story, grab a bag of frozen edamame and a loaf of bread and whip this up. I guarantee this will become your next freezer-stocked pantry staple for whenever you’re craving comfort food, down-to-earth food, sexy food, and extremely deliciously satisfying food.

Who’s in?

Happy toasting!

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

Ever wonder why a crackling fire draws you towards Ever wonder why a crackling fire draws you towards it like a moth to a flame? The fire’s warmth is more than just heat; the foods you cook on a flame add more than nourishment.⁠

One of my favorite memories as a kid growing up in the Research Triangle in North Carolina was the annual church hayride at the country home of our friends, the Barbours. We lived in a suburb of the state capital, close to physically yet far away from life on the outskirts of town filled with Tobacco fields, cotton patches, and red dirt roads. ⁠
⁠
The Barbours had some farm that my little self couldn’t comprehend. In reality, they may have had just land, yet to me; land meant a farm. And besides, they had a big ol’ barn, tractors, and hosted the annual hayride.⁠
⁠
My favorite part of the memory was the firepit, where everyone gathered around, laughed, and enjoyed each other’s company. It didn’t matter if you were a kid or elderly. ⁠
⁠
You may think, “But I don’t have a fireplace or firepit! What can I do?” ⁠
⁠
Improvise.⁠
⁠
Youtube a crackling fireplace video or a firepit on a beach. Dim the lights and turn the crackle up. Invite yourself to a friend’s home with ample backyard and offer to bring ‘smores. Go to a park.⁠

Webster’s Dictionary has two excellent definitio Webster’s Dictionary has two excellent definitions for the word nourishment. One is “to provide with food,” and the other is “to provide for,” to provide support.⁠
⁠
I love that.⁠
⁠
Just as food sustains and keeps us alive, feeling supported sustains us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It’s how we build bonds, friendships, and hope for the future.⁠

“Stop sneaking the spiced candied pecans!” I s “Stop sneaking the spiced candied pecans!” I said this not once, not twice, but almost three times before Dennis beat me to say those words again. “I’m sneaking some more,” he happily declared.⁠
⁠
I’m delighted that he was enjoying them! I assured him that he could have allllll that his little heart desired… he just had to allow me to take a few photos for you!⁠

⁠
Did you know that folks in the UK will use the word “cheers” as “thank you?” From wedding toasts to praising someone for remarkable achievement, raising a glass with a special someone is a special bonding moment.⁠
⁠
I love that part about “cheers” and “thank” can be the same. ⁠
⁠
Have you ever wanted to become more thankful? More grateful? More appreciative of, well, everything that we take for granted?⁠
⁠
Why not give thanks and cheer a little more often?⁠

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
