Chicken Noodle Soup with Egg Noodles

Chicken Noodle Soup with Egg Noodles

15 min

This isn't your grandma's Chicken Noodle Soup.... Typically chicken soup has a lot of fresh herbs, but our Poultry Rub has all of our favorites—sage, marjoram, and thyme—cutting down your prep time while keeping all that herby goodness. The signature slightly yellow colored broth that we all know from childhood comes from the earthy and nutty Turmeric, which just adds to the depth of flavor. You can use any noodles you want, but I find that egg noodles hold up well even after being reheated and sitting in the broth. (Ahem, leftovers!) This Chicken Noodle Soup is perfect for warming you up on chilly days and is sure to be a comforting favorite. The best part? The leftovers may be even better than the original.

Cascade Turkey Roulade

Cascade Turkey Roulade

After years of grilling the turkey, we decided to try something entirely new this year. Inspired by the bounty of the Pacific Northwest, we created a menu to showcase regional flavors with this delicious turkey roulade as the centerpiece. Perfect for smaller gatherings, it is moist and satisfying. As a bonus feature, it is a great hack to safely get the stuffing inside the turkey! The larger the turkey breast, the easier it will be to butterfly and roll. A larger breast gives you more surface area to spreading the stuffing, and it will result in a more impressive pinwheel when you slice the finished roulade. We began by brining the breast with our Northwest Forest Brine, infusing the meat with flavors of the forest, like juniper and California bay leaf. Then, we rubbed it with classic, sagey Poultry Rub. This recipe makes enough for both sides of the breast, but you can dial it down for a half if needed, or double up on the stuffing if, like us, you can eat a whole extra pan.Cornbread and Cascade Mushroom Mix are the foundation of the stuffing, and the earthy flavors are deeply delicious. As an accent on top of the celery and onion, we added in dried tart cranberries, for a little pop of flavor. The mouthwatering presentation of this beautiful roulade made the perfect centerpiece for our Best of the Northwest holiday meal, and the fresh bounty of the region shines through with complimentary spicing.If you've never tied a roast or just want a refresher, here's a sweet clip on How to Tie a Roulade.

Maple Spiced Carrots

Maple Spiced Carrots

Here's a side dish that indulges your sweet tooth during dinner. With some inspiration from pecan pie and some from our pan-Asian super-spice Seattle Salmon Rub, the dish comes together beautifully. Can you put salmon rub on carrots, you ask???? Heck, yes! The toasted savory base of pepper, cumin and coriander is accented with sweet top-notes to make the perfect seasoning. Add a generous amount of maple syrup and butter and these carrots cook down candied and tender. They'll smell of star anise and orange from the Seattle Salmon Rub as the glaze thickens and coats the carrots to perfection. We did an oblique and festive cut on the carrots and, for a bit of crunch, we added toasted whole pecans. This is a delightful change from candied yams but the glaze will work equally well on both. As always, marshmallows optional.

Tadka Carrot and Cauliflower Salad

Tadka Carrot and Cauliflower Salad

Sometimes we crave something hearty and filling, yet light enough to be healthy. This flavorful salad is able to achieve both! Tadka is a South Asian technique, also known as tempering, that uses hot oil or ghee to extract the essential oils out of spices. The result is a rich, flavorful, and aromatic oil — perfect to use as a dressing. For ours we use a base of Brown Mustard Seed, Yellow Mustard Seed, Cumin Seed, Turmeric, India Red Chile Flake and Asafoetida. These spices get lightly sautéed in oil, then a squeeze of lime juice and salt is added. The sauce melds together to coat the salad beautifully. The crunch from the mustard seeds and the umami from the asafoetida really makes this recipe stand out. Making this salad is quick, easy, and the ingredients are completely versatile. Beets, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, kale — any shreddable veggie would be delicious in this salad!Asafoetida is a great spice to use, especially if following a low-FODMAP diet. The flavor is nearly identical to that of onion and garlic, but it actually comes from the dried giant fennel resin. There is truly no spice like it!
