There were a couple of comments about my mention of Carrots with Ginger and Rosemary, so I've posted the recipe below. This, along with Carrots with Olives and Garlic are our two favorite carrot recipes.
The recipe below is from Cook's Illustrated.
Serves 4
1 inch piece fresh ginger , cut crosswise into 1/4-inch coins
1 pound medium carrots (about 6), peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick on the bias (see illustration below)
1/2 teaspoon table salt
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon unsalted butter , cut into 4 pieces
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Ground black pepper
Bring ginger, carrots, salt, 1 tablespoon sugar, and chicken broth to boil, covered, in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until carrots are almost tender when poked with tip of paring knife, about 5 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to high, and simmer rapidly, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, 1 to 2 minutes. Add butter, rosemary, and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar to skillet; toss carrots to coat and cook, stirring frequently, until carrots are completely tender and glaze is light gold, about 3 minutes. Off heat, add lemon juice; toss to coat. Transfer carrots to serving dish, scraping glaze from pan. Season to taste with pepper and serve immediately.
Two of our absolute favorite recipes are up now on Ward Street Bistro:
You might remember Crispler from this video of Drake:
With 4th of July upon us, my latest post at Ward Street Bistro is a corn fritter casserole. Great with BBQ! And super-easy to make.
We've had an exceptionally busy week, but I did manage to post another recipe over at the Ward Street Bistro: Grilled Mustard-Rosemary Chicken.

I've got a big backlog of things I want to post about, including an incredible marionette (yes, as in puppets) version of Don Giovanni that we saw last weekend.
But, now I am off to finish some laundry and housecleaning that I didn't get done earlier in the weekend. I've always thought a 4-day work-week would be perfect. Sometimes, there is just so much to cram into those two little days (Saturday and Sunday)...
But, things are "warming up" over at the Ward Street Bistro. This week's post is Lemon-Pepper Potato Salad, a favorite of ours with grilled meat or poultry.
Continuing with the pasta theme, my latest post over at the Ward Street Bistro is Pasta with Cauliflower.
Over at the Ward Street Bistro, my most recent post is all about cooking pasta. I love pasta with garlic so much that even looking at this photo is making me salivate! Of course, it is almost dinner time...
Over at the Ward Street Bistro, I'm getting ready for some pie-making with a round-up of "foolproof" pie crust recipes.
The web is filled with funny food-related gags for April Fools' Day.
I think my favorite is this Kitty Litter Cake. A sure hit at the office!
I am not so clever as to come up with a food gag. But over at the Ward Street Bistro, I am offering up this Rhubarb Fool.
I've got a new recipe up on Ward Street Bistro -- one of our favorite dishes for Sunday dinner - Chicken Tajine. As usual, you can either download a printable recipe and/or see how to make it step-by-step.
With Spring on it's way, I'm looking forward to featuring seasonal goodies over at the 'Bistro.
Now that I've got four whole recipes posted, it's starting to feel a little bit more like a real blog! But more are definitely on their way...
