TMK Can Do Your Holiday Cooking!

This is basically a re-post of last year's TMK holiday offering. Everything listed here is available, plus other things like gooey butter cakes and cookies, peppermint bark, buckeye cookies, and on and on!

Too busy to do your own holiday cooking? Need something to take to a pot luck or to give as an edible gift? Need a cookie tray for your office holiday party? You've come to the right place! Tiny Montgomery Kitchen is here to help make your holidays less hectic. Just because it's not listed here, doesn't mean I can't make it for you. Also, any TMK soups can be had (minimum of 4 quarts if it's not the weekly soup).

Thai Chicken Soup

This week I'm craving the scent and flavors of Thai food. I think a soup based on Tom Kha Gai is in order; a base full of creamy coconut milk, rich chicken broth redolent with lemongrass, kaffir lime, galanga, fish sauce, and the spice of red curry paste, plus tender chicken, sliced mushrooms, a touch of chopped tomatoes, a bit of broccoli, and a few slices of sweet red and spicy hot peppers. To make it a heartier meal, I will mix in a big dollop of fragrant jasmine rice. This soup is just what you need for the continued frigid weather we are having.

Crusty French loaves are just the thing to accompany this soup.

Prices as follows:
 
1 quart/$8     2 quarts/$15      3 quarts/$22     4 quarts/$28



Loaves: $3/each

(Payment via cash, check, credit, or Paypal)

I'm taking orders till Wednesday evening. Orders taken via emails, text messages, carrier pigeon, smoke signals, etc. Pickup will be Friday evening and Saturday. Delivery available for an additional $2 to City and inner ring suburbs.

Vegetarian Chili and Mini Cornbread Loaves

If you are a meat eater, you've probably consumed more turkey/roast beef/ham in the past few days than you thought possible. So this week because of that (and because the bulk of my time this week is going to be spent cooking for the homeless folks of STL), I'm only offering one option, which is Vegetarian Multi-Bean Chili! It's full of beans (red, black, kidney, ??), peppers sweet and hot, tomatoes, herbs and spices, and my specially prepared soy meat replacer. It's really good! I made a big batch of the stuff for the Rock and Roll Craft Show this past weekend, and a couple of vegetarian customers had to double check, after taking a bite, that it was actually vegetarian (and in fact, it's completely animal product free)! So inveterate meat eaters need not fear! Also, it's going to get REALLY FREAKING COLD by the end of this week. You need some chili to keep you warm!

To accompany the chili, I'm baking mini loaves of midwest style cornbread (that means it's the bright yellow sweet-ish stuff) with corn kernels and a little touch of jalapeno peppers. Plain cornbread also available, just ask!

Prices as follows:
 
1 quart/$8     2 quarts/$15      3 quarts/$22     4 quarts/$28

Loaves: $2/each

(Payment via cash, check, credit, or Paypal)

I'm taking orders till Wednesday evening. Orders taken via emails, text messages, carrier pigeon, smoke signals, etc. Pickup will be Friday evening and Saturday. Delivery available for an additional $2 to City and inner ring suburbs.
