Recently, one of my friends has become obsessed with berry-picking. Last month it was blueberries; now she’s moved on to their purple cousins. Yesterday, she picked 13 pounds of blackberries, a feat I might find concerning if I could stop stuffing myself with one of its resulting pies. Not being in a baking mood today, I decided I’d make a sorbet with the contents of the bucket that showed up on my doorstep. The version Molly Wizenberg posted on her ridiculously charming food blog Orangette looks perfect, simple and tasting mostly of the berries, with just a whisper of raspberry dessert wine. More »
I’m more of a gourmand than gourmet and a kitchen dunce to boot, but there is a leetle part of me that wishes I were a food blogger. They seem so charmingly invested in their product, and many are quite skillful writers. Seattleite Molly Wizenberg’s Orangette is one of my favorites because each recipe comes with a story. The bulk of the recipes aren’t her own, and occasionally just seem like an excuse for storytelling, but her telling is so superb -witty, personal, full of asides, that it really doesn’t matter.
