In honor of Issue 7: Heritage, Michael Harlan Turkell invited me to come chat with him on his radio show, the Food Seen hosted by Heritage Radio Network. It was a total blast talking about what inspires me, cookbooks and of course, Remedy Quarterly. You can listen to the complete interview here.

Mexican Chili-Orange Spiced Pepitas
If you need something crunchy and zesty to go with your margarita, try these spiced pepitas (pumpkin seeds). These make a fantastic snack on their own, as a topping to salads or butternut squash soup, or as an addition to trail mix. I also use them to top pumpkin flan.
1 cup pepitas (green, untoasted pumpkin seeds)
grated zest of one orange
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, to taste
1/4 teaspoon sugar
dash of ground cinnamon
1
Toast pumpkin seeds in oil in a 10- to 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until puffed and golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
2
Combine orange zest, sugar, salt and cayenne.
3
Toss toasted seeds with the spice mixture until evenly coated.

We are proud to announce the arrival of Issue 7: Heritage! Inside you’ll find an interview with Patrick Martins from Heritage Foods USA (and Heritage Radio Network and the new Heritage Meat Shop) that will leave you inspired. Allison Kave of First Prize Pies fame shares her recipe for Bourbon Ginger Pecan Pie (yup, you read it right) and a story about finding inspiration in your kitchen, Erin Wengrovius whipped up a lovely illustrated recipe for us, and Zara Gonzalez Hoang gives us a peek into her Puerto Rican Christmas. Plus you’ll find even more stories, recipes, and tips inside; so ahead and pick up a copy today!
We’re excited to announce our second print in the series “Words to live by”. This one is inspired by a phone (ok, it may have been the gentleman’s pinky and thumb acting like a phone) conversation overheard on the Muni in San Francisco. After a theatrical conversation it ended with the phrase “Make it happen. Period.” Since then it’s become a mantra in the Carámbula household for everything from simple tasks to hefty goals.
The print is 5″ x 7″ and comes in four colorways—white, gray, green and kraft. $10 each and available in our shop.
We’re introducing a series of three prints this fall titled Words to Live By. The print above is inspired by a toast we found in one of our vintage entertaining books, Here’s How, The How-To-Do-It Book of Home Entertaining. It’s a real gem if you happen to find it. In the meantime, hang this little number up by your liquor cabinet or bedside. It’s available in four colors, green, white, gray or kraft, measures 5″x7″ and is $10. Pick one up here.

We’re now accepting submissions for Issue 9: Escape. We’re looking for food-related stories that incorporate some sort of escape. Perhaps it’s an escape from everyday life, a magical vacation that truly felt like an escape, or maybe even an escape from eating something (I’m thinking about my childhood strategies to avoid vegetables).
Visit our contribute page for more information, we can’t wait to hear from you!
