Welcome

Welcome to my blog. My blogging journey began about in August 2009 as a photo-a-day blog which has since transitioned to combine my love of good food and photography. Today, using as many local and fresh ingredients as we can, my boyfriend and myself spend time researching recipes, making our own adaptations, cooking, taking photos, eating, and finally reflecting on all or part of the above listed process here. I hope you take the time to not only read and look at our photos, but please cook some of the recipes yourself. You are invited and encourage to leave feedback as we continue our culinary journey!

Zucchini Fritters

A few weeks ago, this caught my eye on my favorite foodie blog, so we decided to give it a go.

We made the recipe as written on smitten kitchen, but we left out the onion. My pictures didn't turn out as well as her's but, the dinner was still delightful. Since you can read the exact recipe on smitten kitchen, I will only summarize here.

Basically, you're going to take two shredded zucchini (better to shred instead of put on the regular setting in the food processor, as I made the mistake of doing) and drain the water. Mix the dried (and salted) zucchini with an egg, pepper, flour, and baking powder. Heat some oil up on your skillet, and cook the mixture kind of like you would cook pancakes. Serve with sour cream or greek yogurt and lemon zest. I also think tomato puree would be good to top this off!
