Gastronomic predictions: Paleo, gluten-free, grain-based and vegetable-centric plates will lose their stigma and become expected items on menus everywhere. Given what I’m up to, I also predict Champagne and bubbles will be more accessible and popular. Go-to simple dish: Rice noodles with coconut milk, ginger, basil, crab and chili flake. Newly discovered ingredient: Koda Farms Heirloom Kokuho Rose Japanese-style rice. Food to try: Seaweed. Favorite food trend: Vegetable-centric plates! High/low and use of rotational crops are close seconds. Currently in your fridge: Chicken thighs, cooking wine, brown rice and hot dogs, because we adopted two toddlers a year ago. And of course, we’re never without some bubbly. Guilty pleasure: I embrace Jenny Holzer’s phrase, “Feel no guilt in your desire.” But if you must, I’d say Old Dutch Cheddar & Sour Cream potato chips while driving to northern Wisconsin.
