Summer 2022 Herbal Salts- The Fruit Series

Summer 2022 Herbal Salts- The Fruit Series

July 27th  2022

SOLD OUT! Sorry

Even though these are sold out, this will give you a good idea of what is to come.

Something deep inside me lights up in the presence of fresh herbs. I am enraptured by them, as well as those who grow and use them. I hope I can inspire you to use more of them.

Fresh herbs have been a symbol of my own artistry and creative spirit since I started growing them in my garden in Eugene, Oregon, in my early 20’s. Not only are they a staple in my cooking, but they have sprung up in every aspect of my life ever since.

My Herbal Roots is the creative manifestation of everything herbal I have experienced along the way, and a projection of all to come. It’s a place for me to share my herbal passion indiscriminately, allowing me to document the herbal moments that light my path, providing a home to pause in celebration and appreciation.

I have been conscious of my own innate passionate streak from an early age. Like many others, I remember coloring outside the lines as a child. What set me apart was the self-confidence I had that couldn’t be swayed by anyone telling me it was wrong. My inner strength carried me forward from the get-go, fearlessly driving me to where and who I am today.

The Summer 2022 – The Fruit Series is a manifestation of my life in Missouri. I hope you enjoy.

Cardamom Almond Struessel Strawberry Coffee Cake

Einkorn Flour, Nissa’s middle eastern spice mix, and I seasoned the cake part with rose bergamot tea. 

It’s a new oven so I overcooked it but it was DIVINE.

It’s the time of the year to dry marigolds and other flowers (dahlias) so you can make powders to color things in fall.

#BolinasCookingProject
Nissa’s Chinese Chicken Salad
Savoy and red cabbage, baby bok choy, red kale, shredded carrots, red peppers, Japanese cucumbers, scallions, mint, cilantro sesame seeds- grilled five spice Chinese mustard ginger marinated chicken and my hot mustard honey almond sesame brittle with a basic Chinese chicken dressing with fresh orange. 

For an appetizer I served nectarine wedges with olive oil, lime juice, and a special salt made with peanuts, green Birds Eye chilis, and cinnamon basil. 

I made a lovely bergamot rose ice tea and sun steeped it with fresh strawberries and cinnamon basil for two days.

Are you, like me,  always thinking about how to incorporate more @pointreyescheese #OriginalBlue in your eating repertoire? 

Behold my new herbal magic. 

An unapologetically decadent and stunning steak salt for real steak lovers who know the salt is everything. The luxurious creamy tang of Pt. Reyes Blue (yes it’s actually in the salt!) comingles with Gospel Flats Farm vibrant red beets for one of my most earthy alchemies! 

it’s a little sweet, and super vegetal, loaded with local, foraged, and  what we Bolinas folks call over-the-hill provisions

This aroma, to me, is reminiscent of cheese and earth after rain- VERY PLESANTLY SO. 

It has an obscene amount of beet flecks, that melt on anything hot. 

Pretty tones of wild fennel get captured while brighter herbs keep this from getting too earth dirty. Its sharp, salty, tangy flavor cuts through the rich fat and heavy umami of beef, while the bold, creamy cheese balances flavor, zigzagging through herbaceous, milky pasture vibes while never insulting the steak flavor. 

Potent herbs—hummingbird sage, savory, rosemary, and nepitella—meld with the peppery bite of wild arugula and the floral earthiness of huacatay flowers, keeping it and your steak interesting. 

This is the only steak salt you need, but like my personal being demonstrates, there are no rules to it use. I’m digging it on little gem wedge salads with more blue cheese and particularly on salty splashy cold summer cucumbers.

Today’s favorite 🌸🍅🍑

Summer Flowers & Herbs
Peachy Tomato Salt

A lush summer nectar of ripe peach and heirloom tomato, captured in a flaky salt, layered with an abundance of fresh local Bolinas  herbs and summer flowers. Bright citrus, wild fennel, and delicate peppery spice weave through the sweetness, with subtle savory depth underneath. Floral, juicy, aromatic, and vibrant — a little wild, a little extravagant, and completely summer. Luscious.
