Having opportunities to talk about canning, knowing what it takes to run a small food business, but also knowing myself and when to take a step back to just focus on my craft. Beyond my career as a canner, my goal is to continue to empower youth through food as a food justice advocate and through mentorship, teaching, serving on advisory boards and fostering opportunities with good food businesses. Ultimately, I would like to have my own jammy brick and mortar in Oakland that can serve as café/retail space and be a training ground for local youth...and take over the world through tiny jars of awesome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: Regarding food and technique, what are you passionate about this season?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Simley:\u003c/strong> This season, I’m in love with Tara Duggan’s new book \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2013/09/06/tara-duggan-talks-root-to-stalk-cooking-recipes-and-tips-on-the-art-of-using-the-whole-vegetable/\">\u003cem>Root to Stalk Cooking: The Art of Using the Whole Vegetable\u003c/em>\u003c/a>. I’m passionate about whole fruit preserving -- yielding multiple recipes from one batch to waste no part of the fruit and get more bang for your fruit buck. For instance, this summer, I preserved blackberries in balsamic vinegar; after several weeks I removed the fruit -- saved the vinegared berries for summery salads and used the berry balsamic as a base for homemade salad dressing and a boozy berry shrub. After zesting Meyer lemons for a massive batch of limoncello, I turned the leftover fruit into lemon granita, lemon curd and concentrate for cocktails. I’m obsessed. I try to bring this ethos to my classes. If you’ve spent your hard-earned money for that beautiful, organic and local fruit -- why waste it?

Having opportunities to talk about canning, knowing what it takes to run a small food business, but also knowing myself and when to take a step back to just focus on my craft. Beyond my career as a canner, my goal is to continue to empower youth through food as a food justice advocate and through mentorship, teaching, serving on advisory boards and fostering opportunities with good food businesses. Ultimately, I would like to have my own jammy brick and mortar in Oakland that can serve as café/retail space and be a training ground for local youth...and take over the world through tiny jars of awesome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: Regarding food and technique, what are you passionate about this season?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Simley:\u003c/strong> This season, I’m in love with Tara Duggan’s new book \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2013/09/06/tara-duggan-talks-root-to-stalk-cooking-recipes-and-tips-on-the-art-of-using-the-whole-vegetable/\">\u003cem>Root to Stalk Cooking: The Art of Using the Whole Vegetable\u003c/em>\u003c/a>. I’m passionate about whole fruit preserving -- yielding multiple recipes from one batch to waste no part of the fruit and get more bang for your fruit buck. For instance, this summer, I preserved blackberries in balsamic vinegar; after several weeks I removed the fruit -- saved the vinegared berries for summery salads and used the berry balsamic as a base for homemade salad dressing and a boozy berry shrub. After zesting Meyer lemons for a massive batch of limoncello, I turned the leftover fruit into lemon granita, lemon curd and concentrate for cocktails. I’m obsessed. I try to bring this ethos to my classes. If you’ve spent your hard-earned money for that beautiful, organic and local fruit -- why waste it? A good cook and canner is a resourceful, creative and thrifty one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: You were recently named to \u003ca href=\"http://blog.zagat.com/2013/07/30-under-30-sf-bay-areas-food-world-up.html\">Zagat’s “30 Under 30”\u003c/a> list.

Not to mention -- I was in very good company; it’s so great to see passionate young people making it happen in the food world. It’s pretty cool to be recognized by your industry, but I just want to continue to focus, keep my head down and do good, meaningful work. My legacy would be 1) to feed people well and 2) give kids who grew up in environments like I did, the chance to fulfill their food dreams and 3) help pave the way for more woman leaders and people of color leaders in the food industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Zagat folks even stopped by Bi-Rite; we made a batch of jam together and I provided some helpful canning tips.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/lVk-pr3pPME'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/lVk-pr3pPME'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: Who are your mentors?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Simley:\u003c/strong> First and foremost, my mom.

We’re shooting to reach $500K by the end of May as that will ignite the next key stages of the project -- securing a loan and a lease. We hope to capitalize on the growing public interest in supporting local economies and thriving communities through investment in local small businesses and mission-driven enterprises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We first tried to raise the equity funding from foundations and private investors. The foundations couldn’t sort out how to make an investment into a for-profit venture. The private investors weren’t interested in the low-margins and timeframes for when they’d get paid back.

They’re drawn to the social impact we’re looking to make, as well as the economic impact in terms of job creation, tax revenue generation, etc. It seems like a lot of folks are just tired of the options of either donating to charities or investing in Wall Street.

The reality is that we didn’t really start working on creating a grocery store until I left People’s Grocery in 2010 and founded People’s Community Market that fall.

Don’t worry about the pressures of society to move at a faster rate than what enables you to optimize your project. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/gDECy0mVMiM'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/gDECy0mVMiM'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/59137/coming-soon-a-supermarket-in-west-oakland","authors":["5125"],"categories":["bayareabites_109","bayareabites_752","bayareabites_1962","bayareabites_1245","bayareabites_1875","bayareabites_2035"],"tags":["bayareabites_9576","bayareabites_11474","bayareabites_11470","bayareabites_9094","bayareabites_11471","bayareabites_11473","bayareabites_556","bayareabites_9532","bayareabites_9097","bayareabites_9574"],"featImg":"bayareabites_59322","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_44370":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_44370","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"44370","score":null,"sort":[1339686900000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"bi-rite-creamerys-sweet-cream-and-sugar-cones-review-and-recipe-for-balsamic-strawberry-ice-cream","title":"Bi-Rite Creamery's Sweet Cream and Sugar Cones: Review and Recipe for Balsamic Strawberry Ice Cream","publishDate":1339686900,"format":"aside","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1607741849/kqedorg-20\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/06/sweetcream-bookcover500.jpg\" alt=\"Sweet Cream and Sugar Cones\" title=\"Sweet Cream and Sugar Cones\" width=\"500\" height=\"633\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-44437\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What to do when it's too darn hot?

An initial Master Instructions chapter gives thorough step-by-step instructions for making ice-cream base, sorbet, granita, ice cream cakes and pies, in fuller detail than the following recipes. Even if you've never made ice cream before, reading these instructions is like having a helpful chef pal hovering at your elbow, trouble-shooting and encouraging you at every step. Besides the ice creams, there are recipes for all kinds of sundae-bar delights, from chocolate and vanilla cake bases and homemade marshmallows to hot fudge, peanut brittle, brownies, snickerdoodles (for making their signature cinnamony \u003cem>ricanelas\u003c/em> ice cream), lemon curd, gingersnaps, gingerbread, and more. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once you've mastered the vanilla ice cream, you can make any recipe in the book, as every ice cream variation starts with the same basic stovetop-custard base of heavy cream, lowfat milk, sugar, salt, and egg yolks, put together the same way. Perhaps in wanting to appeal to the broadest possible base of home cooks (and families), the authors don't give temperature measurements for their basic custard recipe, relying instead on the traditional direction to cook until it \"coats the back of a spatula.\" In my experience, most home cooks are very jumpy around custard mixtures, and usually undercook them in their hopes of avoiding a scrambled mess. Using an instant-read, digital thermometer to gauge doneness solves this problem and gives the most consistent results; it would have be helpful if the authors had included stage-by-stage temperature readings for their more advanced, gadget-minded cooks, along with the typical visual cues. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chapters are organized by main ingredient, so if you're craving caramel, you can turn to the caramel chapter and find everything brown and sugary, from Brown Sugar Ice Cream with a Ginger-Caramel Swirl to Toffee Chip Cookies, Brown Sugar Graham Crackers, and Caramel Sauce. It can make for some flipping back and forth if you want to make a variety of toppings, however, since the sauces—Vanilla Butterscotch, Hot Fudge, Espresso Fudge, Caramel, Blueberry-Lemon—aren't listed one after the other in a toppings chapter but separated, respectively, into the Vanilla, Chocolate, Coffee and Tea, Caramel, and Berries chapters.

Pumpkin puree is listed as an ingredient in Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream, but never mixed in. Small oversights, but having been a cookbook editor, I know that these are the types of mistakes that drive readers crazy.

Carefully scoop out about 1/2 cup of the hot cream mixture and, whisking the eggs constantly, add the cream to the bowl with egg yolks.

Using a heatproof rubber spatula, stir the cream in the saucepan as you slowly pour the eggs-and-cream mixture from the bowl into the pan. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Cook the mixture carefully over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it is thickened, coats the back of a spatula, and holds a clear path when you run your finger across the spatula, 1-2 minutes longer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Strain the base through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean container. Set the container into an ice-water bath, wash your spatula, and use it to stir the base occasionally until it is cool.

Put the skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the strawberries are soft and the liquid they have released has reduced somewhat, 6 to 8 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2.

Carefully scoop out about 1/2 cup of the hot cream mixture and, whisking the eggs constantly, add the cream to the bowl with egg yolks. Repeat, adding another 1/2 cup of the hot cream to the bowl with the yolks. Using a heatproof rubber spatula, stir the cream in the saucepan as you slowly pour the eggs-and-cream mixture from the bowl into the pan. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Cook the mixture carefully over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it is thickened, coats the back of a spatula, and holds a clear path when you run your finger across the spatula, 1-2 minutes longer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Strain the base through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean container. Set the container into an ice-water bath, wash your spatula, and use it to stir the base occasionally until it is cool.
