I’m having a love affair with chickpeas right now, and this looks like another delicious recipe to add to my arsenal!

I am so happy for you and for your guests- of course I expect it went smashingly well and everyone was drooling on their plates between courses. Wish I could have been there.
Pickled Ramps sound fab too…
Congratulations!

Any chance that a lonely travelling Estonian foodblogger could have a meal at Jack’s on June 7th?? Just wondering :)

Ramp kimchi? OMG, does that sound good! Probably illegal as too creative and furrin in the Appalachians where they grow. How lucky to find squashh this time of year that hasn’t turned wood and tasteless.

Thank you so much, everyone!

Tartelette – Really? If I find a good way to pickle some, I’ll send you pickled ramps. I keep meaning to experiment with ramp kimchi, maybe that will work.

leeann – Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I really appreciate it. I’m so glad you enjoyed and that we were able to help you celebrate your anniversary together.

Congratulations on your first night! This dish does look appetizing for another carnivore like myself! Don’t start with the ramps….I’ll never see them here!

Jack was amazing.

The food was soo good and beautiful. We were celebrating our third anniversary and had a lot of fun being there. We thought it was much better compared to a normal fancy restaurant where the dishes often seem to overload and depend on butter and salt. At Jack, your food was flavorful, full, stimulating, and wonderfully creative while still comfortable and real. Often, it seems a fancy restaurant thinks they’re food is so great even if it’s just asparagus tinted heavy cream or whatever. I don’t know how else to put it, except that at Jack all the tastes were really about food. Food, what you eat to stay alive and happy and healthy. Of course, this was food with all these additional layers of unusual exquisiteness. We left feeling really satisfied and pampered. Without the gross, abused body feeling.

Thanks so much.
