Food prep begins today for our September 5 concert with Ian George & The Knee Pockets and Joe Kaplow! The pre-show social hour has become such a special part of these gatherings for me (Sarah). I love the meditative process of preparing food, and there’s something really meaningful about seeing folks settle in, share a meal, and connect with friends new and old before the music begins.
This month’s spread leans Scandinavian, inspired largely by Green Kitchen Stories (greenkitchenstories.com). I’ve been following their recipes for years and love the way they bring together simple, seasonal ingredients with lots of fresh herbs and vegetables. Also, their photography and storytelling are lovely. The three main dishes will be a Zuchinni soup topped with quinoa and a dollop of sour cream, an Herby Picnic Potato Salad and Burnt Eggplant Dip with Aromatic Crunch.
If you’ve been coming to our events, you know that I LOVE a good raw, vegan dessert. Unconventional Baker (unconventionalbaker.com) has been a great resource and I’ll be making a version of their Blackberry Lemon Raw Cheesecake Bites.
Come for the food, stay for the music! We hope you’ll join us. There are still a handful of tickets left.
