Hi, I’m Rosemary.

You’ll find me in the kitchen, a lot!

My Kindergarten teacher once said, “Rosemary, today you need to play somewhere other than the kitchen”. That was a sad day…..now my kitchen and clients’ kitchens are my playgrounds!

As a test kitchen professional, I create recipes for CPG brands, develop flavor profiles and new concepts for product innovation, and test and write product preparation directions. Trained in recipe development for the home cook, my clients include Sun-Maid, Kikkoman, Idaho Potato Commission, Basic American Foods, Safeway, and many more.

My approach is “really good recipes for regular cooks”: easily achievable recipes and products, designed to encourage trial and repeat purchase. My recipes are crafted with attention to current trends and consumer appeal, to be intriguing but not intimidating, and healthful when appropriate to the product.

My professional affiliations include:

IACP-International Association of Culinary professionals

SFPFS– San Francisco Professional Food Society. President (2015-16), current member. 2018 Lifetime Achievement Recipient.

Consumer Business Professionals of San Francisco President (1985, 2006), current member

Do your recipes turn out just like the photos? Do Do your recipes turn out just like the photos? Do you care or wonder what the developer did different? Or do you think it was fancy food styling and photography? There’s lots of reasons —like different pans, ingredients vary, your whipped eggs may turn out a little different than mine because they are fresher, older, different hens.... and on and on. I hope you don’t get discouraged when images aren’t the same as your results, and you can see by mine, even when it IS my recipe there are variations. The cake on the plate is gluten free, and didn’t bake as golden as the flour version. (And my oven is currrently on the fritz, believe it or not! 😂)

Sure happy to have this recipe in my repertoire. P Sure happy to have this recipe in my repertoire. Perfect after a day of baking, biking, gardening, and escaping into a good book on the sofa by the fire.  Recipe inspired by  @cheflauriegauguin. We spice it up with a smear of hoisin sauce on a Trader Joe’s Carb Savvy whole wheat tortilla to wrap it all up.

Lentils for luck! Lentil soup with preserved lemo Lentils for luck!  Lentil soup with preserved lemon and dill yogurt. I used the preserved lemons from last season-they keep nearly forever in the fridg. The other jar is my new batch made this week waiting to be ready. Use your favorite lentil soup recipe then stir together plain yogurt with minced preserved lemon and fresh dill till you like the lemon-salt-dill flavor.

Make these once and I’m pretty sure you’ll kee Make these once and I’m pretty sure you’ll keep raw cashews on-hand always. Or try with another nut, and let me know which you like best. My gift to you is the recipe below 🙂
Original recipe @leitesculinaria and @inagarten but I first enjoyed it from @mmfooddrink. 🙏 this recipe has been a gift that keeps giving 😂. 
Merry Christmas!

Rosemary Roasted Cashews
 
Heat oven to 350°F
 
Spread 1 pound raw whole cashews on a baking sheet (I usually line sheet with parchment). Bake for 15-20 minutes turning several times until toasted a deep golden brown.
 
Meanwhile, in a large bowl,  microwave 1 tablespoon salted butter until melted.
Stir in:
one rounded tablespoon very finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon packed dark or light brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
 
Add hot cashews to bowl as soon as they are toasted.  Stir and stir until cashews are cool and coated with herb mixture.  Stirring while the nuts are hot is the trick. Cool completely in the bowl.
