Roasted Pumpkin & Hummus Winter Salad

November 22, 2020

Hi, it's David! Hope everyone is doing okay and keeping safe. Nothing this year has been normal and it doesn't seem like things will change anytime soon. We are mostly nesting at home and transitioning into winter mode with lots of Frank Sinatra and fireplace hygge.

We've got a new colorful winter salad recipe for you today but we also wanted to bring back an old feature here on the blog that we call Big Love. Do you remember? Links to food, friends and stuff we have been enjoying lately.

BIG LOVE NOVEMBER

– I've been obsessed with harissa lately and this

Rose Harissa

is our favorite and their

Apricot Harissa

.

– Our friend Sara from Sprouted Kitchen runs a fantastic online

Cooking Club

that you can subscribe to and get weekly shoppings lists and recipes.

– I don't think we will ever get tired of our

Tahini Cookie Recipe

– Elsa and Luise love

these candles

.

– Say what you will about Amazon but

this Christmas ad

was beautiful.

Sophie

who works in our test kitchen can't wait for the next episode of

The Undoing

on HBO.

– 

Australian Food

by Bill Granger makes me long for a trip to the Gold Coast to enjoy their beaches and good food. But flicking through this gorgeous book is the next best thing to a holiday these days.

– Luise collaborated with Cink this summer and launched a limited edition

bamboo dinnerware box

for toddlers. Makes a great Christmas gift!

– Love all

these cups

by ceramicist Erika Petersdotter. And for my birthday the kids had ordered a special made and super cute "World's Greatest Dad" coffee cup from her.

– Bought two of these

ramen bowls

by ceramicist Ingrid Unsold the other day. But also love this

plate

.

– My tennis friend makes these warm, pretty and naturally dyed

Alpacka Wool Socks

.

– We spent this week packing and sending and new batch of

vegetable tattoos

. International post is extra slow during Covid but if you place your order this week we are packing and sending almost daily so hopefully they can still arrive in time for Christmas.

This podcast episode

of The Food Show about Jewish food. Just listening to it feels nourishing.

– If you are looking for Christmas gifts for a vegan friend, I recommend our

B12 Berry Booster

powder. It contains a high dose of easily absorbed B12 and is addictively delicious. Eat it from the stick, spread it over your yogurt or stir into water. 

– Luise has ordered this

Elderberry Syrup

from Pukka and contains Manuka honey and herbs.

On to the salad. We know that salad during the winter isn't for everyone, but this is a nice break from all the stews, pasta dishes and tray bakes that we also make. It combines fresh with comforting and rich with colorful. We start with a base of

satisfying

(Elsa's new favorite word) hummus, then toss kale, grapes and pretty looking beetroots in vinaigrette, top with warm roasted pumpkin and mushrooms and finish with spicy toasted seeds. It's a real feast. If you don't like hummus, you can just as well use yogurt or labneh in the bottom. Hope you enjoy it!

One last thing I wanted to mention is that we are starting a new cookalong series on my

instagram page

next week. I think we will post the recipes on here as well to so stay tuned!
