the Older Bolder Life Friday Feast: Easy Peasy Italian Seasoning

November 13, 2020 By Older Bolder Mark

One of our family mantras we’ve embraced for years now is the simple mindset of “dammit, we can do that”.

The first time I personally uttered that phrase was back in 2003 as we shopped around for barns to board our daughter’s first horse back then. That critter was entirely her project – from purchase to boarding to ongoing maintenance (if you’ve never been involved with horses, the ongoing costs are never-ending and impressively varied) – though that animal led us down a path none of us expected at the time.

The “dammit, we can do that” approach to that particular challenge led to buying a horse farm and show operation the next year, which we managed top to bottom as a family, and used as a learning lab for a plethora of life lessons, including teaching both of our then early teenage kids how to run a business.

The “dammit, we can do that” mantra works wonders in the kitchen too.

With a bit of research, creativity, and a modicum of skills there a host of great recipes and techniques available to the home cook these days; making home spices mixes with great ingredients is a prime example.

We love spicy, full-flavored foods around our camp, and have taken of late to buying organic, fresh as possible spices at our favorite local grocer, using them in various dishes as called for, and mixing up our own classic spices mixes as well.

This Easy Peasy Italian Seasoning is one that we find ourselves reaching for more and more often this fall; if you can measure and stir with a spoon, you can put this one together in minutes, and it’s a wonderful spice mix to have on hand for a host of recipes.

The Grilled Diablo Chicken Margherita from a few weeks back is a prime example of a dish where this spice mix shines; we’ve thrown it on chicken and pork headed for the grill all fall, and my wife thinks it works on grilled shrimp too.

I’ve very intentionally left the volume of the recipe up to you – I’m making a giant batch for gift giving this holiday season, though when I’m throwing together a quick recipe of this one at home, I typically use 1 part equal to 1 teaspoon using the following ratio.

(And note, while many commercial Italian spice mixes will have salt added, I’ve left it out so you can better control how much salt you’d like to add when cooking. Want salt in your mix? By damn, put it in.)

6 parts dried basil
6 parts dried oregano
6 parts dried parsley
3 parts crushed red pepper flakes
3 parts rosemary
3 parts thyme
2 parts marjoram
1 part granulated garlic

Combine the dried spices in a small bowl and mix well. Store in an airtight container or bag in a dark cabinet or the pantry.

Enjoy.

Sauce Monday: Our House Pesto (with a Roasted Twist)

October 26, 2020 By Older Bolder Mark

At the risk of posting one of those recipes that just about every curious home cook already has in their repertoire, and probably a family favorite at that, I’ve had several requests of late for an easy, quick, damned tasty, and storable pesto recipe.

There are a ton of great pesto variations and recipes floating around out there, and we tend to lean on a fairly classic approach using really good ingredients – particularly the freshest basil you can get your hands on and a great parmesan cheese.

Several talented mentors in the kitchen, including our compadre Chef Libby in Austin, have taught us over the years that you can up your pesto game with a couple of simple roasting steps for the pine nuts and garlic.

Toasting (roasting) the pine nuts in particular brings out their umami flavors and we think adds a bit of tooth to the texture as well; you can either do in the oven or a pan on the stove (I do in the oven for 7-8 minutes at 300 to lower the risk of burning them, and typically just throw 3 garlic cloves in the pan as well to roast along with the pine nuts).

You certainly don’t have to do this, but you should try it at least once, and you’ll also find the roasted garlic is much more mellow and rounded after the gentle application of a bit of heat.

We usually scarf down a batch of pesto the day it’s made, but if you’re doing a bigger batch, you’ll preserve the basil’s bright green color longer in the fridge if you blanch the leaves for 15-20 seconds in simmering water followed by a dip in an ice-water bath immediately after. Drain well before blitzing, and your pesto will stay bright green in the fridge for days (though we always store ours with a thin layer of good olive oil on top too).

Friday I’m posting a great grilled chicken recipe featuring this pesto….

1 cup packed fresh basil leaves, see note above about optional blanching
1/4 cup fresh pine nuts, roasted
2-3 cloves garlic, roasted
1/3 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup good EVOO
1/2 to 1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice (or to taste)
1/2 tsp good salt (or to taste)
1/4-1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper (or to taste)

Roast the pine nuts and garlic if desired; see discussion above.

Blanch the fresh basil leaves if desired, see discussion above.

Combine the basil leaves, roasted garlic (minced if using raw, start with one clove), cheese, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil in your trusty food processor and pulse until the desired smoothness is achieved (we like our pesto with a bit of tooth or texture).

Store in the fridge with a thin layer of olive oil on top.

Enjoy.

From the CDC – COVID comorbidities portend worse outcomes by up to a factor of 12.

Does metformin lower COVID death risk in women? (Free Medscape account required)

Keeping things interesting and spontaneous is critical in the relationship long game, and a little time enjoying great food in a fun environ is always a win. And damn, their arrosto misto roasted veg appetizer is simply awesome.

Just posted an interesting look at the five fruits Just posted an interesting look at the five fruits packing the most antioxidant punch on the blog today (link in bio). Ranked by their ORAC scores (oxygen radical absorption capacity - a bench top measure), the winners are elderberries, wild blueberries, raw cranberries, blackberries, and gogi berries. Fruit has its baggage (we’re looking at you fructose), but thoughtfully added to your meal plan, it brings a host of great benefits.

Warming temps over the next few days are going to make the river pop and bring out the boards and the 'yaks. Hot damn, and Montana rocks in the spring.

Being the kind of person that has never met a jala Being the kind of person that has never met a jalapeno popper I didn't like, when these Grilled Jalapeno Poppers with Smoked Gouda popped up on our radar I simply couldn't resist. #Gouda is a great melting cheese, superbly flavored, and readily available; fresh jalapenos are flooding into markets these days too. Don't forget a spritz of fresh lime juice, some chopped cilantro, and a really nice coarse salt for these hot off the grill. Recipe on the blog (link in bio) on Wednesday this week. See you on the back porch around the grill tonight. #jalapenos #jalapenopoppers #grill

For the Older Bolder salad Monday today I've poste For the Older Bolder salad Monday today I've posted a recipe (link in bio) for this quick Italian dressing, based around fresh oregano, parsley, and thyme, that's shockingly close to the dressing served on their house salad by a(n) (in)famous Italian chain eatery. This is far, far better, and comes together in under 5 minutes if you're pretty handy prepping those fresh herbs. Don't forget your homemade avocado or olive oil mayo for this one too. Cheers.

Some days you really do have to stop and smell the Some days you really do have to stop and smell the roses; I walked by this overgrown, wild-assed rose bush on my walk this morning and couldn’t help but stop, soak up the beauty and the scents, and grab a few pictures. You don’t need a mindfulness app, trainer, guru, or training - you just need to pay attention to the world unfolding around you. Go find some roses to smell today.

Today’s Friday Feast is this amazing Hanger Stea Today’s Friday Feast is this amazing Hanger Steak Bulgogi Bowl (recipe posted on the blog this morning, link in bio). Hanger steaks, like their kissing cousins skirt steaks, derive from the diaphragm though are much more tender and flavorful than skirt - which is still our favorite #fajita cut on the planet. I put this bowl together last weekend before heading down to Austin with our Asian Fried Cauliflower Rice; hot damn, was it tasty. And it’s a simple prep and cook to boot.

How about this colorful and fresh Green Bean Nicoi How about this colorful and fresh Green Bean Nicoise Salad for lunch or dinner today? Just posted the recipe on the blog this morning, I have to admit it's one of the more creative salads we've done at home in a while, and the bright, lemon-based dressing is amazing. A great thing about this recipe is it can be done in stages and held in the fridge, then assembled right before serving. With or without some wild-caught tuna on the platter, this one is a meal in itself. You'll want to try this one. #nicoisesalad #greenbeans #wildcaughttuna #lemon #olderbolderfitness #olderbolderlife #primal

What a great lineup of speakers at yesterdays open What a great lineup of speakers at yesterdays opening day for the Primal Health Coach Masterclass in Austin - Tyler Cartwright (@ty_cartwright) and Luis Villasenor (@darthluigi) of @ketogains knocked it out of the park, as did Erin Power (@eat.simple.erin) and Laura Rupsis. Rubbing shoulders with some of the bigs is always inspiring and a great opportunity to learn, test and integrate new ideas, and stretch your goals and the horizon a bit. A rainy day on tap today won't dampen enthusiasm to hear @marksissonprimal and @christinehassler. #primalhealthcoachmasterclass #ketogains #learn

Posted a new recipe on the blog (link in bio) toda Posted a new recipe on the blog (link in bio) today for this tasty #turmeric #tzatziki; it comes together in just a few minutes and has been delicious on crudite and several grilled meats. My lovely wife would probably eat tzatziki at every meal if given the chance, and this one might be her new favorite. By the way, it's equally good made with the more authentic Greek yogurt as well as a full fat sour cream. Those Farmers' Market vegetables you're picking up this week are calling for this one. #olderbolderfitness #olderbolderlife #primal #paleo #keto #ketomeals #paleomeals #ketorecipes #paleorecipes #primalrecipes #healthcoach #wellnesscoach #lowcarb #weightloss #fitness #fithack #biohack #metabolicflexibility #fit
Posted a fun recipe for our Friday Feast post on t Posted a fun recipe for our Friday Feast post on the blog (link in bio) today - a spicy Crunchy Oven Roasted Nashville Picken (Pork Rind Coated Chicken). This recipe uses a couple of different tricks to make it more crispy and crunchy than ever, and the #primal/#paleo/#keto friendly Nashville glaze is amazing. You’ll want to put this one in the rotation before too long. Cheers.

There are ton of great #cauliflower fried rice recipes out there; we’ve tried to pull together the best features of our favorites to pack in the most well-balanced flavors possible.
