Recipes:
COZY, NOURISHING JUJUBE TEA
As the weather begins to shift and we move into cooler days, our bodies ask us for a different wheelhouse of nutritional support. Jujubes also known as Chinese Red Dates lend just the right amount of sweetness in this delicious blood-nourishing tea.
SOUP RECIPES
Recipe:
CREAMY ARTICHOKE HEART TAHINI DIP
This dip is heavenly, smooth, and creamy with the umami combination of artichoke hearts, tahini, garlic, lemon and a dash of cumin. It’s that perfect crowd-pleasing potluck dish to bring to a festive gathering.
Recipe:
PERSIAN CUCUMBERS WITH COCONUT LABNE
Given that Southern California is in a heat wave right now and into next week, I decided to post this incredibly hydrating and refreshing cucumber salad. With this salad, you can eat your water. This dish is incredibly easy to make.
AMALGAM FAVORITES
Recipe:
DECKED OUT BAKED PURPLE SWEET POTATO
I have come up with this stunning, incredibly delicious, different, and satisfying sweet potato dish. I literally created it on a dime, when recently wondering what to do with three vivid purple sweet potatoes sitting on and staring at me from the kitchen counter. I could have sworn I heard little voices screaming “eat me!”
Recipe:
THE ULTIMATE GRAIN FREE BAKER’S BLEND
I recently took a blood food sensitivity and allergy test (the Dunwoody) at my doctor. Here is an at-home version, if you feel you need to know about your potential food allergies. I sadly learned I was allergic or had a high sensitivity to some of my most favorite foods. Coming in first place was almonds, the precious nut I (seriously) eat every day of my life in some form or another.
A Visit With:
OJAI ROOTS
I had the opportunity to visit Rei and Evan at their small, neighborhood farm last fall and was surprised to learn they were around the corner from me in Ojai. Ojai Roots was started by this duo in the height of COVID, a pet project to pass away the time and grow some food.

What does Amalgam Kitchen mean? Quite simply put it is “a blend or mixture” of the way I have learned to cook, the education I have pursued about food and the nutrition and all the ways food and cooking have influenced my life, including what continues to come into my life.
