Happy Halloween, everyone! If you’ve been reading Pinch My Salt for over a year, this recipe might look a little familiar. And that’s because I posted it the day after Halloween last year.
Yes, it was a little late then. And yes, it’s a little late this year, too! But hey, at least the holiday isn’t completely over this time! Continue reading →
It’s official, I’ve finally joined the Daring Bakers! And of all things, my first Daring Baker challenge was…pizza!
Pizza? That’s supposed to be a challenge?? Those were my first thoughts when I started reading about this month’s daring baker challenge. And then I got to the part about how we would have to toss the dough in the air. Ah yes, I thought. Therein lies the challenge!
You see, I make pizza all the time, but I refuse to toss the dough. In fact, I pride myself on not tossing the dough. I developed a method of pressing out the dough on parchment paper that creates a nice, round, perfectly thin pizza crust. And once I perfected my method, I never thought I would have a reason to do it any other way.
And then I joined the Daring Bakers. Continue reading →
Just a quick heads-up that I will be a guest on a radio show tomorrow morning! The Gourmet Club, a local internet radio food show, will be featuring San Diego food bloggers this week! Tune in on your computer to hear me talking about food, blogging, and the San Diego food scene with a couple of other San Diego bloggers that you probably know: Alice from Alice Q. Foodie and Amanda from What We’re Eating. The show will be hosted by Caron Golden of San Diego Foodstuff and Maureen Clancy of Matters of Taste and is sure to be a lot of fun!
The Gourmet Club airs this Wednesday from 11:00 a.m. til noon (PST), but if you aren’t able to listen live on your computer, the show will also be available as a podcast. For more details about tomorrow’s show, visit San Diego Foodstuff.
And, if you have specific questions you’d like to ask us, leave a comment on Caron’s blog before 9:30 a.m. tomorrow morning or call in to the show live at 866.818.6384.
Hope you get a chance to listen!
As much fun as it is to write about pumpkin, cream cheese, and pies this season, it’s nice to know that there are some wonderful Autumn recipes out there that are warm, hearty, satisfying, and healthy. And my new favorite from that category is this rich and hearty roasted vegetable chowder inspired by two of my favorite bloggers: Karina of Karina’s Kitchen and Rachel of Coconut & Lime.

Fall is here, the holidays are near, and the season of eating is officially upon us. To me, that means it’s time for apple pie!
This is my third year at Pinch My Salt, and every year I have grand plans to write about holiday recipes. So far, I’ve failed miserably! Sure, I always manage to post a few pumpkin recipes here and there, but when it comes to the real stuff: the pies, the turkey, the cranberries, the dressing, I always step back and let the pros help you out.

We’ve recently had a few out of town guests and, as usually happens, our regular food budget/cooking routine kind of went out the window! It’s always fun to break out of the routine and splurge a little, but now it’s time to get back on track! Continue reading →
So I tried this experiment yesterday.
There have been a couple of extra ripe bananas staring me down for a couple of days. I mean, it was getting ugly. So last night I was forced to make an important decision: bake something or throw the poor things in the freezer where they would probably get lost for a very long time. Continue reading →
