Summer is all about grilling on open flames, fresh veggies, & just enjoying being outside ☀️🫑🍅🍔🔥

How are YOU enjoying summer?

Garden to Table season is in full swing, and it’s honestly so amazing. I’ve really learned a lot this year through caring for my garden - from planting, to watering, to maintenance, to harvesting, and everything in between. Tending to a garden teaches you how to respect an ingredient so much, and to truly let it shine. It’s pretty cool to be able to use the food you’ve grown in your own back yard to make a meal ☀️

The meal was brought to you by our Garden & Her abundance of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers (both sweet & hot), zucchini, summer squash, basil (sweet, purple & lemon), oregano, & parsley 🌿 🍅🥒🌶️🪴

• Strip Steaks
• Garden herb Pesto-ish Chimichurri
• Garden veggie pasta salad
• Mom’s pan fried zucchini with breadcrumbs

Fresh ingredients, hot grill, glass of w**e - this is what summer is all about! 🔥

BBQ Pulled Pork Pannenkoeken (Pancakes) 🇳🇱

This is one of my OG recipes that I created when I working at my first kitchen job back in 2023. I was tasked with coming up with the inaugural brunch menu, & at the time, this seemed like a wild idea, but I believed in it so much. Familiar flavors and foods - smoked BBQ pork butt & sweet corn pancakes - but in a creative & unconventional way.

Looking back on this plate, it is probably THE plate that I am most proud of, simply because it was an idea that turned into something unique, memorable & honestly freaking delicious - it was, and still is, truly my own creation that gave me the confidence to be different.

This past Mother’s Day, I had the privilege of cooking for my entire family, and I chose to share this plate with them, slightly updated, & even better than the OG.

Two weeks before, my wife Corey Dudish Hare & I traveled to Amsterdam. This adventure had changed me in such a way that I became more inspired and returned with just a whole new perspective on a lot of things. One of my favorite meals I had while visiting was Dutch Pannekoeken - a larger, thinner version of a pancake typically eaten for lunch or dinner & topped with either sweet or savory toppings. They were incredible.

When deciding on a menu for Mother’s Day, I knew without hesitation that I wanted to recreate something near & dear to me while sharing my experience in Amsterdam with my family through this meal.

And thus, Jenny’s OG BBQ Pulled Pork Pannenkoeken entered the lineup.

* Fiamma Dorata Smoked Pork Butt
* Citrus BBQ Sauce
* Sweet Corn Dutch Panenkoeken
* Chili Maple Syrup
* Citrus Cabbage Slaw

To me, this is what food is about & will always be about - sharing food that tells stories & creates memories with the people around you.

If you’ve stayed along with me to this point of this post, thank you. From the bottom of my heart, I appreciate you more than you know & I enjoy sharing my life through food with you all 🧡

Much love to you all,
Chef Jenny ✌🏼🌼

Watermelon Radish 🍉

• Very mild; a little sweet, a little peppery
• Has a great crunch & holds firm pretty well
• Great garnish for texture & to add a vibrant pop of color to any dish!

Try them either raw or lightly pickled for a tangy crunch on salads, rice bowls, sandwiches, pizzas, & more! Be sure to slice them thin (mandolins work great 😉)

👉🏼 Tip: after slicing, place watermelon radishes in ice water - not only will the cold preserve their color, but they will start to naturally curl, giving them a super cool look!

It’s important to slow down & take the time to appreciate the natural beauty of things.

Stay vibrant, my friends!

🩷💚💛

• Chocolate Olive Oil Cake • Orange Whipped Cream • Orange Miso Caramel Crunch •

This one got me prettyyy excited. I had somewhat of a wild/ fun idea in my mind, put a lot of careful thought into how to make it come to life, & this is what it turned out to be.

Is it perfect? Not one bit. Did I have way too much fun creating this? Obviously yes. Am I proud of taking an idea in my head & making it come to life? Damn right I am.

This is what I love about cooking.

…& yes, it tastes as good as it looks 😏

Stay hungry y’all 🧡

Chef Jen ✌🏼
