Absurdly Addictive Asparagus

PollyJanuary 30, 2021August 28, 2025

I belong to a cookbook club, and we meet every month to feed each other some spectacular food and their recipes. Sometimes the meetings follow a theme like “Your Mom’s Best Recipe” or “Picnic Food“. Sometimes the meetings are from…

Homemade Cherry Pie (from fresh cherries)

PollyMay 27, 2020August 28, 2025

My daughter used to have a cherry tree in her back yard and the cherry crop was always enormous! We were in cherry heaven for a few years and then, suddenly and most unfortunately, the tree died. It was a…

I am fortunate to live in an area with some remaining cherry orchards. For a few weeks each year these orchards are open for U-Pick cherries.  Seeing as how we are in the midst of a pandemic—80 days of Shelter-In-Place…

Cherry Limeade

PollyMay 27, 2019August 28, 2025

As a non-drinker of anything alcoholic, compounded by being a non-soda drinker, and not being especially thrilled about water, I am excited when I find something special to drink. This is one of my favorite special drinks, Cherry Limeade! It’s…

Salmon-Spinach Breakfast Roll-up

My friend Karin made this for our Cookbook Club’s Snow Holiday.  I ate it the morning she made it, and had it again for the following three mornings…loved it! She learned to make this from her cousin in Germany; she’d…

It was time for my cookbook club’s “Signature Cake” meeting.  A “Signature Cake”, is show-y cake, one that we might become remembered for. A special cake our family and friends might look forward to, or even ask for, on birthdays and special…

Strawberry Sandwiches

PollyJanuary 31, 2011August 28, 2025

I have never seen a recipe published for this sandwich, but it’s one of my favorites—probably because it’s more like a dessert than a sandwich! I have my demons, and all of them are sweet 🙂 I first encountered this sandwich…

About Me

polly of the kitchen

It's all about the recipe—really, it is! I have amassed quite a collection of recipes from my favorite cookbooks, food magazines, friends, the Internet, and more recently my adult daughters. I test every recipe I post. Some I've been cooking for years, decades even, and a few I have made only a few times. I don't post mediocre recipes. I don't post good recipes. I post GREAT recipes! When I find a recipe I LOVE, I can't wait to share it. I started In the Kitchen with Polly on January 01, 2010, a joint venture between myself and my non-cooking but most excellent webmaster, proofreader, technical goddess and all-around bestie, ratty (not a joke—ratty is her chosen nickname—her Mama didn’t do that to her, she did it to herself!). Last year we hit a snag—the website went up in monstrous flames. It took a long time to sort out what happened and even longer to recreate what was lost. Hundreds of pictures gone, and every recipe we posted (300+) over the last 14 years had to be reformatted, many pictures retaken. It's done now though, and we are back! I like this brighter version :) Scroll through! Find something you like, and let's get cooking! There’s a search button and there are also tags to click on if you want to find a recipe for a specific food. If you need it, the print button is on the preview page and at the end of each post.

Enjoy!
