SAVORY GRILLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, black pepper and oregano.
• Snap off and discard woody bases from asparagus. If desired, scrape off scales. Brush mushrooms and all vegetables with oil mixture, reserving the remaining oil mixture.
• Place mushrooms on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium hot coals. Grill for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender, turning once and brushing with reserved oil mixture. Add vegetables to grill. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes or until tender, turning once and brushing with reserved oil mixture. Discard any remaining mixture.
• To serve, slice mushrooms. Arrange mushroom slices and other vegetables on a serving plate.
• Sprinkle with feta cheese.

GRILLED SUMMER VEGETABLES WITH SAVORY AND SWEET SAUCE

Steps:

• For the savory and sweet sauce: Whisk together the fish sauce, honey, garlic, Thai bird chiles, lime juice and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
• For the vegetables: Set up a hardwood fire and let it burn to low-burning embers (see Cook's Note). Set up your grate for direct and indirect heat cooking.
• Lay the carrots, yellow squash and zucchini on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables, cut-side down, on the grill grate over indirect heat. Grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and grill until lightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into smaller pieces. Toss the vegetables with the sauce in a large bowl.

SUMMER VEGETABLE GALETTE

Steps:

• In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, or in a large bowl, pulse or mix together the flours, sugar, and salt. In a measuring cup, lightly beat the egg, then add just enough cream to get to 1/3 cup. Lightly whisk the egg and cream together.
• Add butter to flour mixture and pulse or use a pastry cutter or your fingers to break up the butter. If using a food processor, do not over-process; you need chickpea-size chunks of butter. Drizzle the egg mixture (up to 1/4 cup) over the dough and pulse or stir until it just starts to come together but is still mostly large crumbs. Mix in lemon juice and zest if using.
• Put the dough on lightly floured counter and knead to make one uniform piece. Flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic and chill for 2 hours, or up to 3 days.
• When you are ready to make the tart, roll out dough to a 12-inch round (it can be ragged). Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill while preparing the filling.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Spread out eggplant, zucchini and tomatoes in one layer on three separate sheet pans or cookie sheets. Drizzle generously with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast vegetables, tossing zucchini and eggplant occasionally, 35 to 40 minutes. Eggplant and tomatoes will be golden at the edges; zucchini will be tender. Don't let the vegetables get too dark because they will continue to brown in the tart. Transfer vegetables to a bowl (you want to have about 3 cups of them) and toss with chile peppers.
• Decrease oven temperature to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, combine goat cheese, garlic and thyme leaves. Spread mixture in a thin layer over crust, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border all around. Arrange vegetables evenly over goat cheese. Fold up edges of crust, pleating to hold it in (sloppy is fine). Brush pastry generously with leftover egg and cream mixture.
• Transfer galette to oven and bake until golden brown, about 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

SAVORY ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the beet, carrot, onion, potatoes, garlic, and garbanzo beans into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Drizzle with the olive oil, then season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, stirring once midway through baking. Remove the baking dish from the oven, and stir in the wine. Return to the oven, and bake until the wine has mostly evaporated and the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes more. Stir in the beet greens, allowing them to wilt from the heat of the vegetables. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.
