    Negroni Cocktail

    March 29, 2021 / 1 Comment

    The Negroni Cocktail is classically made with equal parts Gin, Italian Sweet Vermouth and Compari (or similar Italian bitter like Cappelletti). A Negroni is stirred over ice (not shaken). And served with a twist or slice of orange. It’s well known for its lovely color and perhaps less known for it’s colorful history.

    Apple Fennel Slaw {with Orange Cumin Dressing}

    June 1, 2020 / 1 Comment

    I discovered a couple things from this recipe.  Greek Yogurt makes a pretty darn good substitute for mayonnaise IF you are adding some punchy flavors to it….like cumin, coriander, and orange juice & zest.  That’s exactly what makes up the delicious dressing for this Apple Fennel Slaw.

    Jamaican Jerk Marinade

    January 28, 2020 / 1 Comment

    I find extreme satisfaction from really bold flavors. Not only do they excite my taste buds but they wake up my senses. This punchy Jamaican Jerk Marinade will leave your tongue dissecting the layers of flavors. It’s spicy, slightly sweet, and over the top with aromatics.

    Jalapeño Infused Margarita

    February 28, 2014 / 2 Comments

    Jalapeño Infused Margarita. I recently went on a business trip to Las Vegas and enjoyed a really nice dinner at Taqueria Canonita located in the Venetian Hotel.  The company, the atmosphere, the food…were all wonderful.  But the Jalapeño Infused Margarita was inspirational.

    Fresh & Bright Orange Persimmon & Pomegranate Salad

    January 1, 2014 / 2 Comments

    Orange, Persimmon & Pomegranate Salad is the perfect Winter Thyme burst of fresh bright flavors. I woke up this morning motivated.  Yes I am one of those who launches a campaign of healthy living promises every January 1st.  I’m not ashamed that my New Years resolutions probably mirror those of millions.  I embrace knowing I’m part of a team and will welcome their support along the way.

    Brazilian Feijoada {Pork, Beef & Black Bean Stew} The word Feijoada (pronounced fay-ZWAH-da) comes from the Portuguese word feijão which means “beans” and is the national dish of Brazil.  This stew is made up of rich cuts of assorted pork and beef that are slow cooked with black beans, onions and garlic.  It’s then served over rice with orange wedges which provide just the right flavor balance.

    Grilled Vietnamese Chicken Thighs. To quote my in-house taste-tester, “This is a flavor WIN.” I’ll take that as a thumbs up.  Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs marinated in a jalapeno orange marinade, then grilled to perfection.  So delicious and as a bonus, figure friendly.

    Crispy Orange Beef & Broccoli

    January 18, 2013 / 8 Comments

    When I made the decision to dedicate Winter Thyme to Spice Exploration I began by playing with my spices….literally.  I transformed them into a Winter Thyme ‘Wind.’  Touching each one, taking in their individual aromas, admiring their earth tone colors, and seeing how beautiful they looked together.  As I stated in my Winter Thyme post, my goal for this season is to explore spices and share what I learn through new recipes.  Where they’ve taken me thus far is on an International journey.  So while my intention is to become familiar with spices, I’m kind of digging the new recipes and flavors along the way.  That’s my not so smooth segue…

About Libby

Hi, I'm Libby and welcome to Lemony Thyme. I hope you'll enjoy this collection of recipes, eating experiences, and food photography. My cooking abilities rose to a new level when I started incorporating fresh herbs. I began to understand the term ‘layers of flavor’ and found myself deconstructing dishes with my tongue to identify each ingredient.
