Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today
-
Always enjoy cooking/eating what’s in season. My farmers are always surprised how much fresh food I buy. They say “you know we will be here next week!?!?!” to which I respond: “yea, but this is all I’ll need to get…” I suppose most people (westerners anyway) skip cooking and buy mostly processed foods form a store… screw that! What would their grandfathers say?

Amazing rice and vegetable dish; one of the best meals of the year!
And hear it is:
Recipe is as follows:
Layer #1
- Finely chopped fresh spinach (half inch deep in bowl)
Layer#2
- Rice (approximately 1-1.5 cups of 50% Lundburg short grain brown short grain/50% Lundburg brown rice blend japonica). Add quality soy sauce and olive oil (Bragg's is good) and toast in toaster oven until rice is slightly crispyLayer#3
- Spring squash blend (zucchini, white, yellow, etc..) sautéed in olive oil with onions and chilies (Ghost and Thai) Note: start onions before squash to allow for caramelization. Cook at high heat in large pan and remove squash as soon as it becomes transparent to retain firmness of squash.
Layer #4
- Black beans sautéed in olive oil with fresh chopped onions and garlic
Layer #5
- Sliced snap peas (dozen or so)
- Half an ear of heirloom corn
Layer #6
- Steamed fresh hulled Fava beans
Layer #7
