I heard some snow fell early in Ottawa's Byward Market the other day. A few flurries here and there, nothing that stuck to the ground. Of course, it doesn't snow in San Jose where I live, and some would say I have it pretty good with year-round mild weather conditions. But I do miss the beauty of glistening, falling snowflakes. While there are no snowflakes here, I can at least surround myself with meals that are hearty enough for cold days and nights as temperatures can drop pretty quickly. All this talk of flurries reminded me to bring out my vintage snowflake Pyrex for some kitchen action.
Chopped and all prepped to go into the wok - 2 medium sized stalks of king oyster mushrooms, a red onion, and half a tomato. Yes, we're having baked eggs. It's a good weekday recipe that I can put together in a jiffy by letting the countertop convection oven do most of the work.
Charcoal with White Snowflakes, Pyrex circa 1957
Do you ever wonder what the 1950's housewife cooked in their Pyrex?
