Late Summer Grilling

The weather has been gorgeous this weekend - sunny, not overly hot, no humidity - perfect for scooping up late summer produce to combine with some early fall items, and throwing it all on the grill! I went to Charlann Farms here in Yardley today and got some corn, zucchini, tomatoes, cucumbers, ginger gold apples, some mini decorative pumpkins and an acorn and butternut squash (so psyched for roasted squash this week - will probably puree some to make a pot of soup too).
For dinner tonight we had grilled corn (cut the tips off the ears and soak in water for about 30 min, then grill at medium heat for about a half hour, right in their husks); some skewers of chicken sausage (Bilinski's Organic Italian Herb with Porcini Mushrooms flavor), zucchini, red onion and ginger gold apple - brushed with a mix of apple cider, dijon mustard and dash of honey; and homemade cornbread (from Jessica Seinfeld's Double Delicous! cookbook). Fresh, yummy and simple!

    So much of our history can be learned through food!
    My second book, The Thousand Dollar Dinner, follows the unique story of a luxurious 17-course feast that helped launch the era of grand banquets in nineteenth century America. I am also the author of Mrs Goodfellow: The Story of America's First Cooking School.
