Muscadine Sorbet

1/2 Cup (1 1/4 ounces) sliced unbalanced almonds 

1 2/3 Cups all-purpose flour

1 Cup granulated sugar

1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

1 Teaspoon baking soda

1/4 Teaspoon baking powder 

1/4 Teaspoon salt

2 Large eggs

1 Cup plain pumpkin (half of a 1-pound can) 

1/2 Cup (1 stick) butter, melted 

1 Cup (6 ounces) chocolate chips 

Heat oven to 350 F. Put almonds on a baking sheet or pie pan and bake for about 5 minutes, just until lightly browned; watch carefully so almonds don’t burn. (You can also toast them in a toaster oven.) Slide almonds off the baking sheets so they cool quickly.
Grease muffin cups, or use foil or paper baking cups.
Thoroughly mix flour, sugar, pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Break eggs into another bowl. Add pumpkin and butter, and whisk until well blended. Stir in chocolate chips and almonds. Pour over dry ingredients and fold in with a rubber spatula just until dry ingredients are moistened. Scoop batter evenly into muffin cups. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until puffed and springy to the touch in the center. Turn out onto a rack to cool. Wrap in plastic bag and keep for 1 or 2 days. Reheat before serving.

1 Bunch collard greens, stems cut out and discarded

1/4 Cup olive oil

1/2 Teaspoon salt

1/4 Teaspoon pepper

1 Teaspoon sugar

1 Teaspoon minced garlic (optional)

Wash the collard leaves and stack them (5-10 leaves at a time). Roll them up tightly, then slice thinly so you have a chiffonade of greens. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat with salt, pepper, sugar and garlic. When the oil is hot, add collards and stir often for 15-20 minutes, until collards are tender, taking care not to burn the greens. Add more oil if necessary. Makes 4 servings. 

Will Allen, Growing Power

2 Large bunches Swiss chard, or rainbow chard

2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 Large onion, diced

1/2 Teaspoon salt

Pinch each dry thyme and nutmeg

Freshly ground pepper to taste

2 Teaspoons balsamic vinegar, optional

1. Chop and clean Swiss chard: Stack several pieces of Swiss chard on work surface. Remove stems and set aside. Roughly cut leaves into pieces about 2-inch square. Repeat with the remaining Swiss chard. Transfer the chopped leaves to a salad spinner filled with water. Drain, repeat washing if necessary, and spin dry. Rinse and chop the Swiss chard stems (about the same size as the diced onion.)

2. Cook the Swiss chard stems with the onions: Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add chopped chard stems, garlic, onion, salt thyme, nutmeg and pepper and cook, stirring often until the onions are starting to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. 

3. Add the leaves and wilt: Add chopped cleaned Swiss chard leaves, 2 tablespoons water and cover. Let wilt, 2 to 4 minutes. 

4. Cook until softened: Remove lid and continue cooking, stirring occasionally until the Swiss chard is completely wilted and softened, 1 to 3 minutes. 

5. To Finish and serve: Remove from the heat and drizzle with balsamic vinegar if using. Serve hot.

1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
