In this week's roundup, easy weeknight meals that don't skimp on flavor, plus aebleskivers, a seed that tastes like a "nutty angel food cake" and a roasted leg of lamb with anchovies.
- The Denver Post suggests several quick-and-easy weeknight meals, including tofu seasoned with Korean chili powder (pictured), and grilled shrimp with orange and habanero mojo.
- The Chicago Sun-Times discovers that apricot seeds are A) not poisonous when roasted, and B) taste like a "nutty angel food cake." Mmm.
- Have you ever eaten aebleskivers? According to the Los Angeles Times, they're a "type of pancake cooked in a special stove-top pan with half-spherical molds. The center is soft and fluffy, almost creamy. The crust is crisp and browned."
- The Oregonian offers a comprehensive guide to home composting.
- The Boston Globe says don't hold the anchovies. Instead, roast them with a leg of lamb.

YAY æbleskive! The singular is actually æbleskive and the plural is æbleskiver. I used to eat these all of the time when i was in denmark, and you can find them in the midwest here. I bought a pan while in Minnesota and now make them for all of my san francisco friends. SO DELICIOUS!
Mmm I just ate Korean tofu last night. Made with almost the same ingredients. Tofu tastes so good when it's firm and has a density about it.
æbleskiver in solvang? i'll have to go, only live half an hour away!
Of course, my husband used to eat the apricot kernals straight from the fruit (poisonous!) but nothing ever happened to him. Now we buy the roasted kind sometimes for nostalgia's sake at Trader Joe's.
