Don’t count your giant pumpkins until they’re harvested | Black Watermelon Seeds

Red snapper ($39) with lentils and sweet grapes swam in a light, clear and blistering broth spiked with Calabrian chiles. Black cod ($39) — still on the menu, last I checked — comes with a silky purple yam puree, a minced hash of shiitake mushrooms and a luscious little quivering tangle of yuba — soybean curd — that plays like creamy little eddies of sweet, barely set egg whites.

Menus are getting pretty seedy. Restaurateurs are employing a wide variety of seeds to add textural interest to their dishes, but these days pumpkin seeds are first among culinary equals. This is especially true in the fall, when pumpkin seeds, or pepitas in Spanish, pop up all over menus. The seasonal Harvest Grain & Apple Salad at Columbus, Ohio-based Piada Italian Street Food, for example, received a boost from pumpkin seeds and pecans, while the Autumn Harvest Salad at Saladworks, based on Conshohocken, Pa., upped the flavor quotient with smoked-paprika pumpkin seeds. But they’re not just an autumnal treat: The Kale Salad on offer year-round at Mighty Quinn’s Barbecue in New York City marries kale with shaved brussels sprouts and pumpkin seeds.

Denver Licensed clinical social worker Jamie Burke has long considered baking a form of personal therapy; at first, sharing delicious treats with friends was just a happy bonus. She found so much joy in rolling out all-butter pie crusts and scooping cookie dough, however, that she started selling her wares at area markets under the Pie Bird name in 2012. Two years later, Burke took her sweet side hustle into a commissary kitchen so she could produce larger volumes of her signature chocolate tarts and mini apple pies for area coffeeshops (selling to retail outlets is not allowed under the CFA). Sounds like a success story, right? And it was—until Burke realized, nine months into the change, that she actually found the act of baking at home to be far more soul nourishing, not to mention convenient. “I like making things to sell directly to families, and scheduling time at the commissary was so hard,” she says. Nowadays, Pie Bird once again operates out of Burke’s Capitol Hill kitchen. And while that means no more goat cheese tarts, thanks to CFA restrictions against items that require refrigeration, you can still indulge in some self-care of your own with Pie Bird’s fudgy caramel-and-peanut-butter-swirled brownies, sea-salt-sprinkled dark chocolate chip cookies, and other comforting confections.How To Buy: Check Burke’s website for the current menu (from $20 for 13 cookies to $28 for a nine-by-13-inch pan of brownies), and order through the contact form. Burke provides free home delivery to Denver residents.

Peel, halve and finely slice the onion. Peel and finely chop or crush 1 large or 2 small garlic cloves. Pick the leaves off enough thyme sprigs so you have 1 good tablespoon worth. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a flameproof casserole, one with a lid (or use a saucepan, then transfer to a casserole or baking dish, using foil to cover).

“Giant pumpkins have been grown for over a century, but Howard Dill really took it to the next level,” he explained. “In the early 20th century, pumpkin contests were pretty common, especially through Europe and here in the U.S., but then they kind of dropped off from the 1930s to the 1950s, when Howard Dill resurrected the form. He’s now considered to be the modern father of these giant pumpkins.”

Six years later, primed with a $500 education grant, the Youngs helped form the Vermont Giant Pumpkin Growers. The club’s modest website brims with photographs, growing tips and links to an international community of experts.

The dramatic changes of form and use of sunflowers over the last century show what can be achieved by breeders if suitable genetic resources are available. If we continue to adapt sunflowers to our needs as climates change, we must ensure diverse genes are conserved for future generations – ensuring those sunflower fields remain on offer as the perfect place to take a picture.

Moko and Omar are among Paris’ growing community of international chefs laying claim to the City of Light. Moko, 46, who was born in Japan and raised in the United States, was a labor negotiator before getting into the restaurant business 10 years ago. And Lebanon-born, France-raised Omar, 44, was a liaison for the Yankees who claims that, up until the year 2000, he “couldn’t even cook an egg.”
