Folding beautiful dumplings is time-consuming and takes a lot of experience, however, so I’ve instead taken the basic flavors and infused them into turkey meatballs, adding rice to the ground meat for a one-pot meal—less work, similar flavors, and totally satisfying.

I use a combination of water and vodka because vodka is 40% ethanol, which cooks off during baking and will not turn into gluten, creating an incredibly light and flaky crust. - [Matcha Green Tea Shortbread Cookies (Scottish Biscuit)](https://www.ediblesiliconvalley.com/recipe/matcha-green-tea-shortbread-cookies/) - Matcha powder adds a gentle green tea to please any tea fan, while being subtle enough to let the buttery goodness of shortbread shine. - [Maitake Toast](https://www.ediblesiliconvalley.com/recipe/maitake-toast/) - With Shallot & Garlic Confit Courtesy of Avery Ruzicka & Photography by Coline LeConte This is one of those dishes that’s all about texture and generosity—golden confit garlic you can smash into toast, earthy maitake that crisp up at the edges and thick-cut Manresa Bread levain that drinks in all the flavor.

The Mason jar method is my favorite, since it involves just one piece of specialized equipment: a sprouting lid. Sprouting lids come in both wire mesh and plastic varieties, and either will work well. Just be sure to use a lid whose mesh is fine enough to keep the seeds from falling through. For very small seeds like broccoli, you’ll need a very fine mesh lid, and you can go slightly larger for sprouts with bigger seeds, like radish and fenugreek. You can find them in natural food stores such as Country Sun in Palo Alto, or order one online. - [Grandma’s Chocolate Cake](https://www.ediblesiliconvalley.com/recipe/recipes-grandma-s-chocolate-cake-0/) - Executive Pastry Chef, Donald Wressell, of the Guittard Chocolate Studio in Los Angeles, shares his grandma's chocolate cake recipe. - [Heirloom Tomato Harvest Celebration Bloody Mary](https://www.ediblesiliconvalley.com/recipe/recipes-heirloom-bloody-mary/) - Try your hand at this Bloody Mary recipe straight from the Heirloom Tomato Harvest Festival Bloody Mary competition!

This dish can be on the spicy side, so if you’re really sensitive to heat, cut back a little on the chiles. You can ask your butcher to bone the ribs for you, or you can just cook them with the bone in and then bone them before shredding the meat. You’ll need 5 pounds of bone-in short ribs to yield the required 3 pounds of meat. - [Hibiscus Pear Punch](https://www.ediblesiliconvalley.com/recipe/hibiscus-pear-punch/) - Hibiscus tea brings a cranberry-like tart base to your punch recipe, plus the slightly fruity pink infusion from the floral leaves give this punch its festive hue.

Sit down in the café style dining area or take a seat in the bar next door. Local, seasonal, and delightfully seasoned cream of artichoke soup is a favorite on the menu. Tip: Ask about whether you can order a half-and-half soup–we order half red pepper and half cream of artichoke. A winning combination. Even though artichokes grow in the garden behind Duarte's Tavern in Pescadero, to meet the demand for the James Beard Award-winning restaurant's signature artichoke dishes, Ron Duarte and his son Tim supplement their harvest with Guisti Farms products. Below is a recipe for this famous dish. - [Earl Grey Lemon Cake](https://www.ediblesiliconvalley.com/recipe/recipes-earl-grey-lemon-cake/) - The table is set, the small sandwiches and cakes are laid out, the cups and saucers are at the ready and the tea is brewing. Today it can be as simple as a cuppa and a biscuit to help re-energize, or as fancy as an elaborate event where you gather many like-minded people and leave stuffed. This all started back in the early 19th century, but for the full story we have to time travel a little bit more. Around the 18th century in London, tea started to overtake the popular coffeehouses of the time. Coffee needed to be roasted, ground and brewed before a cup could be enjoyed, but tea just needed to brew and then the hot cup of caffeine was ready to go. Tea gardens replaced coffeehouses as gathering places and people were seen mingling, watching entertainers and sipping tea while enjoying the gardens. Tea is so convenient that when the tea gardens fell out of fashion, people continued drinking tea at home. As the 19th century arrived, so too did a new schedule. Dinnertime now started at 8 or 9 in the evening. A midday lunch and late dinner left people feeling low energy between the two. To combat this, Anna Maria, the Duchess of Bedford, began to enjoy a cup of tea in the afternoon. At first she did so privately or with the occasional guest. Options were Chinese or Indian tea and some toast and bread to nibble on. Quickly teatime became popular, with large social gatherings for all classes. As the gatherings grew so did the food options, which now included cakes and tiny sandwiches. As for tea, Earl Grey became the afternoon tea staple, especially during the summertime. This recipe is a combination of the things enjoyed during tea time. There is tea, there is cake, and this is a tea cake, literally! This particular cake recipe is sweet (but not too sweet), moist, and has a nice crumb. It takes soaking syrups really well and can freeze nicely. The base is easy to add any sort of flavoring to, which is why it works so well when adding Earl Grey. Like many herbs and flowers, Earl Grey tea has its challenges when being added to a dish. Too little and there is almost no point in adding it, but too much and you enter the soap taste territory. This cake recipe has been perfected to avoid all of that so you have the balance of bitter and earthy Earl Grey mixed with lemon that plays off of the bergamot notes. It utilizes the tea in two ways to really help the flavors develop in multiple steps. Use it for afternoon tea, as it is a light cake, or omit the decorations and use it as a foundation for a layered cake.
