I also was able to find coconut chips in bulk. (And if you're wondering exactly what coconut chips are, <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/driedfruit/coconut/unsweeted-chips.html?gclid=CNrtx9b07K0CFQ5ihwod9Qnq6Q" target="_blank">here</a>'s a picture.)<br /><br />The next time I make this, I might cut back a little on the brown sugar, but I recommend trying it as written first.<br /><br />300 grams (3 cups) rolled oats<br />125 grams (1 cup) raw hulled pumpkin seeds<br />130 grams (1 cup) raw hulled sunflower seeds<br />50 grams (1 cup) unsweetened coconut chips<br />135 grams (1 ¼ cup) raw pecans, whole or chopped<br />85 grams (packed ½ cup) light brown sugar<br />1 tsp. kosher salt<br />175 ml (¾ cup) maple syrup, preferably Grade B<br />120 ml (½ cup) olive oil<br />Dried cherries, optional<br /><br />Preheat the oven to 300°F.

Add the olive oil and maple syrup, and stir until well combined. Spread the mixture in an even layer on the prepared sheet pan. Bake, stirring every 15 minutes, until the granola is golden brown and toasted, about 45 minutes. Remove the granola from the oven, and season with more salt to taste. Cool completely on a wire rack. If you'd like, stir in some dried cherries.

You can count on me

<div>
<div>
<div></div>I am writing to you today with a wool scarf wound around my entire upper body and a wool blanket tied at my waist. I have a cold, and Brandon has a cold, and before that, he had food poisoning. We are a house under siege. <br /><br />That, however, has not prevented me from getting<a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/2011/12/december-24.html" target="_blank"> that salted chocolate cookie</a> recipe that you wanted. Nor has it stopped me from eating said salted chocolate cookies. You can count on me.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/-DinUV8NgFNg/Tw4uNRGEXtI/AAAAAAAAEJM/T4-v4i9fWvk/s1600/6681716953_8d41dac5d7_b.jpg"></a><br /><br />I’m going to cut right to the chase, because I don’t want to get to get between you and your cookies, and also because I have an appointment with a down comforter. Here’s what you need to know.<br /><br />My friend Renee, she who brought the salted chocolate cookies on <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/2011/12/december-24.html" target="_blank">our crabbing trip</a>, owns a restaurant called <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/" target="_blank">Boat Street Café</a>. (If I’m being thorough, she also co-owns <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/" target="_blank">The Walrus and the Carpenter</a>.) The cookies in question are currently served at Boat Street, where I believe they keep company with a dark chocolate pot de crème. They’re adapted from <span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/Tartine-Elisabeth-Prueitt/dp/0811851508/?_encoding=UTF8&tag=orangette-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325" target="_blank">Tartine</a></span>, from a recipe called Deluxe Double-Chocolate Cookies, which calls for <span style="font-style:italic;">half a pound</span> of melted bittersweet chocolate. HALF. A. POUND. Plus cocoa. The original version of the recipe is a drop cookie, but Renee and her cooks make theirs a slice-and-bake, which looks a little more elegant. And before slicing, they roll the log of dough in sugar, so that the cookies wind up looking like they’re wearing sequined collars - which, now that I’ve typed that out, sounds exceedingly twee, but it feels nice when it crackles between your teeth. They also add a pinch of <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/" target="_blank">Maldon salt</a>, just a few flakes, to the top of each unbaked cookie. It’s not a lot, but it’s what makes the cookie work. It wakes it up.<br /><br />What I’ve been wanting to say for the past half hour, actually, is that these cookies taste the way I always wish brownies would. Because <span style="font-style:italic;">that</span>, that right there, is what you need to know.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/-dypjHQ1tzoE/Tw4uNKGDB4I/AAAAAAAAEI8/RWL2ZvV-8OY/s1600/6681725237_2c2eb3105b_b.jpg"></a><br /><br />Now, lest you spend a lot of time comparing the photographs above with the photograph of the cookies in my last post, I should tell you that my cookies didn’t turn out exactly like Renee’s. I don’t know why, but mine are thinner and softer. It’s not that there’s anything wrong with that, but hers had a sandy, shortbread-ish quality, I seem to remember - unless I was going after them like a real <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/watch?v=2cEPydnb0Ns" target="_blank">animal</a> and accidentally ate some of the beach? I can’t figure it out. Brandon told me yesterday that he also suspects that Renee adds some chopped chocolate to the dough, which is a great idea. I’ll try that next time. Either way, I am not complaining. <br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Salted Chocolate Cookies</span><br />Adapted from <span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/Tartine-Elisabeth-Prueitt/dp/0811851508/?_encoding=UTF8&tag=orangette-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325" target="_blank">Tartine</a></span>, by Elisabeth M. Prueitt and Chad Robertson, and from Renee Erickson and <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/" target="_blank">Boat Street Café</a><br /><br />Renee tells me that when they make these cookies at Boat Street, they use Valrhona “Guanaja” 70% chocolate, so that’s what I used, too. Whatever brand of chocolate you choose, make sure you love it, because that’s what the finished cookies will taste like. 70% cacao is ideal, but anything above 60% will do the job. And if you can’t find Maldon salt, a coarse sea salt will probably be just fine.<br /><br />At Boat Street, they make these cookies quite small, about 1 ½ inches across. At home, I made half of the dough into small cookies, and I made the other half into more normal-sized ones, about 2 ¼ to 2 ½ inches across. I think I prefer the latter. In any case, if you want small cookies, divide your dough into four portions, and shape each portion into a skinny log, about an inch in diameter. For larger cookies, shape your dough into two logs, each about 1 ½-inches in diameter. Whichever way, you’ll wind up with a lot of cookies. I forgot to count them before we started eating them, so I don’t have an accurate yield size for you. Sorry! But really, you’ll have a LOT.<br /><br />Last, note that this dough tastes best - and is easiest to work with - when it’s been allowed to rest in the fridge for a day or so before baking.<br /><br />225 grams (8 ounces) bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped<br />155 grams (1 ¼ cups) all-purpose flour<br />50 grams (½ cup plus 2 Tbsp.) unsweetened cocoa powder<br />2 tsp. baking powder<br />115 grams (8 Tbsp.) unsalted butter, at room temperature<br />225 grams (1 cup plus 2 Tbsp.) sugar, plus more for rolling the logs<br />2 large eggs<br />¼ tsp. table salt<br />1 tsp. vanilla extract<br />75 ml (1/3 cup) whole milk<br />Maldon salt, for finishing<br /><br />Pour water into a saucepan to a depth of about 2 inches. Bring to a simmer. Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl that will rest securely on the rim of the saucepan, and place it over – not touching – the simmering water. (Make sure that the bowl is completely dry before putting the chocolate into it, and take care that no moisture gets into the chocolate. Moisture will cause it to seize.) Heat, stirring occasionally, just until the chocolate melts and is smooth. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.<br /><br />In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, and baking powder. Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high speed until creamy. Slowly add the sugar, and continue to beat until the mixture is completely smooth and soft, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in the salt and the vanilla, and then add the melted chocolate, beating to incorporate. Add the milk, and beat until combined. Finally, add the flour mixture and beat on low speed until just incorporated. The dough will be quite thick and stiff.<br /><br />Depending on what size cookie you’d like to wind up with (see headnote, above), divide the dough into 2 or 4 portions. Put each portion on a large piece of plastic wrap, and shape into a log, using the wrap to help you smoosh, roll, and smooth it. Twist the ends to seal. Chill overnight. (If you’re into advance planning, the dough can probably be kept in the fridge for at least a week, or frozen for longer keeping.)<br /><br />When you’re ready to bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 350°F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.<br /><br />Put another sheet of parchment paper on your work surface. Take a spoonful or two of sugar, and pour it onto the parchment, making a ridge of sugar of approximately the same length as your dough logs. Remove a log from the fridge, unwrap it, and roll in the sugar to evenly coat. Using a thin, sharp knife, slice the dough into ¼- to 1/3-inch slices. (If you’re making small cookies, the 1/3-inch thickness is best.) Lay the slices on the baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. Sprinkle each cookie with a few flakes of Maldon salt.<br /><br />Bake for 10 minutes, or until the top of the cookies looks set but still feels a little soft to the touch. Transfer to a wire rack, and leave the cookies on the pan to cool. Repeat with remaining dough.<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Note:</span> These cookies will keep at room temperature for several days.<br /><br />Yield: a lot<div></div>

December 24
</h3>
<div>
<div>
<div></div>Whenever we spend the holidays with my relatives in northern California, we eat <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/2009/02/first-rate-mess.html" target="_blank">Dungeness crab</a> on Christmas Eve. I can’t remember when the tradition was started, but when Brandon and I got together, I introduced him to it. He was still mostly a vegetarian then, and he’d never tasted crab, but he was curious about it - enough to grab a couple of crab legs and, however awkwardly, get himself around them. He took to it fast. This year, we spent Christmas in Seattle, on our own, and we decided to continue the Christmas Eve crab tradition, since Washington is the state that gave <a href="http://discoverwomenseekingmen.com/e/Discover/Women/Seeking/Men/Dating/szh/Dungeness_crab" target="_blank">Dungeness crab</a> its name. It felt fitting. Plus, Brandon announced, he had a plan: he would catch our crabs himself.<br /><br />I told my mother about this plan a few weeks ago, when she came to visit for a long weekend. <span style="font-style:italic;">Molly</span>, she breathed, <span style="font-style:italic;">that’s SO romaaaaaantic
