dis h Home for the Holidays

When I was a child, my father was in the military. Though I claim to be ‘from the South’, most of my childhood was spent far from it. I lived in places where you could actually play in the snow on Christmas day and had to bundle up in your snow suit before going out, not take a walk on the beach in your light long sleeved t-shirt like we sometimes can do here in the low country. The majority of my extended family all lived in north Florida and still do today.While my parents, siblings, and myself enjoyed the snow up in England or whatever freezing place we happened to be stationed at that year, my grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins in Florida enjoyed each other’s company. As a young child on Christmas morning, I never realized anything was missing; there were presents, a Christmas tree covered with every handcrafted ornament my brothers or I had ever made, stockings overflowing with goodies, and a empty plate sprinkled with crumbs from the cookies and milk we had laid out for Santa just a few hours earlier.What I didn’t take notice of then was that as we opened presents my father would break out his gigantic camcorder and record the Christmas chaos. He would then prompt a “Thank you Granny & Papa” from us every now and then, so that my grandparents could virtually experience our childhood Christmases, since they couldn’t be with us.

Once we moved back to north Florida, we were finally close enough to spend time with our family for the holidays; the family that we had been away from for so many years. On my mother’s side alone I have four aunts and uncles, seven cousins, but an unlimited number of great aunts, uncles, and cousins, which sometimes join us as well. But I have to say no matter how any people were squeezed into my grandmother’s house, I had never felt more loved. Sure, I had always felt loved, but this kind of overflowing joyous love was something different. The holidays are like mini family reunions and after missing out on holidays like this for most of my childhood, I decided right then and there that this is how I always want to celebrate the holidays; surrounded by the people I love and that love me.

Kelly Lockamy David Gignilliat Rhonda Barlow Liz Querusio Cornelia Stumpf Jason Restivo

Now I am an adult, married with two fur babies, and living away from my family once again. When I moved to Savannah, it was a little hard to get used to not seeing my family as frequently. The holidays, to me, aren’t really about the gifts (though giving them and receiving can be nice too) or time off from work or school, but it’s about spending quality time with the people who matter most and that is my family.

sprouting for health, convenience, & economy

here’s really no excuse for not growing sprouts to add to your daily diet. They grow to edible maturity in a matter of hours to days; don’t need soil or sunshine; grow in any climate; can be planted any day of the year; not time, space or labor intensive to cultivate; no expensive equipment required; and seeds to sprout are very affordable-not to mention delicious and nutritious! You don’t even have to have gardening skills, if you can follow a simple recipe, you can grow sprouts! We’re all familiar with Alfalfa sprouts, mung bean sprouts and increasingly, broccoli and radish sprouts. These little packages we know as seeds are nutritionally dense, live food, full of protein, minerals, vitamins and antioxidants, and come in all varieties of size, taste and texture. So much diversity to add to your regular routine of food choices, you’ll wonder why you never tried this before! Sprouts retain the B-complex vitamins present in the original seed, and show a big jump in Vitamin A and an almost unbelievable amount of Vitamin C over that present in un-sprouted seeds.

The high vitamin content is gained at the expense of some protein loss, yet the figures are impressive: an average 300 percent increase in Vitamin A and a 500 to 600 percent increase in Vitamin C. In addition, in the sprouting process starches are converted to simple sugars, thus making sprouts easily digestible. In case you have thoughts of losing a few holidays pounds in the upcoming new year, you should know that sprouts represent the ultimate diet. According to a university study, “Sprouting grains causes increased activities of hydrolytic enzymes, improvements in the contents of total proteins, fat, certain essential amino acids, total sugars, B-group vitamins, and a decrease in dry matter, starch and anti-nutrients.” (1989 Chavan and Kadam) Simply put, sprouting grains, beans and other seeds greatly improves their digestability, availabilty of, and amount of nutrients and enzymes over eating the dormant stage of these same seeds.

Well FED

In the rather trendy, newish health craze of the raw food culinary arts, sprouts are a mainstay, and go way beyond the limited array you’ll see on grocery store shelves. They are available online in an abundance of variety and replete with more information than you may want to know. Brighter Day Natural Foods also carries sprouting seeds in single varieties and mixes. Don’t buy seeds meant to plant in soil, they could be chemically treated, hybrid, or genetically modified. You can find seeds for sprouting from almost any botanical family you can name: grains, beans, herbs, flower and vegetable seeds. The average nutrient breakdown is: Vitamins A, B, C, E, and K, Calcium, Iron, Lecithin, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Pantothenic Acid, Amino Acids, Trace Elements, Protein Up to 35%.

beans Adzuki, Garbanzo, Lentil, Mung, Pea, Peanut Seed to Sprout: 2-5 Days Sprout Shelf Life: 2-6 weeks Whether you eat them raw or cook the sprouts in soups, casseroles or stirfry’s, the nutritional value is always enhanced. The protein content is boosted and the starch content is lessened. Photo: Mung Bean Sprouts by Anna Frodesiak

A few examples and their benefits and uses follow:

grains Wheat, Rye, Hulless Barley, Triticale, Oats, Spelt, Kamut, Quinoa, Sesame, Millet and Amaranth Seed to Sprout: 1-3 Days

leafy

Sprout Shelf Life: 1-2 Week

Radish, Clover, Alfalfa, Garlic Chives, Onion, Mustard, Cress, Dill, Fenugreek, Celery, Sunflower and Arugula

Grains are all sweet, though some are sweeter than others. Kids tend to love them because of their sweetness, so they are often a child’s first positive sprout experience. If you have kids, this is the perfect introduction to growing their own food, anytime, anywhere. Grain sprouts take only a few hours to mature to an edible stage. No worries if they’re left to mature for several days, as they’ll become a grass you can either juice or feed to your animals- almost any animal will eat them! They can be used in early stages in breads, as a cereal, in stir-fry’s and soups or as a snack.

Seed to Sprout: 5-6 Days Sprout Shelf Life: 2-6 weeks If Alfalfa sprouts leave you yawning, try mixing in any combination of the other sprouts listed in this category. Some of the stronger tasting herb sprouts or spicy mustard and radish sprouts are tamed down with the addition of the meek and mild Alfalfa.

Vegetable: Photo: Broccoli Sprouts by Julie Gibbonws

Broccoli, Red and Green Cabbage, Oriental Mustard, Cress, Radish, Arugula, Mizuna, Tatsoi Seed to Sprout: 3-6 Days

Sprout Shelf Life: Up to 6 Weeks

If you don’t like some of these flavors as a full grown vegetable, give them a try as a sprout. The are milder and pack such a nutrient and antioxidant punch that you can eat less of them and get the same benefit as eating a whole serving of the mature vegetable version. If you love these vegetables, you’ll love the sprouts even more- if only for the long shelf life and convenience that brings to last minute meals!

the basics of sprouting EQUIPMENT: A clean glass quart jar, mesh screen or cheesecloth cut to fit over lip of jar, held in place with rubber band or metal band if using canning jar.

soak: Dry seeds are dormant. Soaking a seed ends its dormancy and begins a new life. Add Water. Different seeds soak up different amounts of water. Mix 2-3 parts water to 1 part seed. You can’t add too much water, but you can soak for too long or too short a time. 8-12 hours is a good rule of thumb, be sure to follow the recommended time for the variety of seed on the packaging or website of your purchased seed.

Rinse and rinse again, every 6-12 hours until desired amount of sprouting occurs. More frequent rinses in warm weather and with smaller seeds; less frequent with large bean seeds and/or cooler temperatures.

drain: Be sure to drain well, the most common sprouting failure is when the sprouts sit in a puddle.

Well FED

Keep the sprouting device where air can circulate like on an open shelf, but away from sunlight- seeds grow underground after all.

refrigerate: Make sure they are well drained, cover jar with solid lid. I sometimes put a dry paper towel under the mass of sprouts to ensure there’s no puddle, it also keeps the humidity up in the closed jar.

Illustration by: Brittany Johnson Life is filled with everyday behaviors, experiences and occurrences we all notice and observe. And most of them already have existing words and phrases to describe them. But some do not. In an ongoing Well Fed series for Well Fed Savannah, writer David Gignilliat, explores the hidden language of everyday healthy living.

snorgasbord [snohr-guhs-bawrd]

n., like a traditional smorgasbord, a sleepinducing buffet spread of holiday meats, sweets and goodies. Though each gathering is different, you can often find some of the following seasonal favorites at the holiday table -- ham or turkey, mashed or whipped potatoes, carb-heavy casseroles, holiday cookies, fruitcake, mulled cider and wine, egg nog, cranberry sauce, puddings, pies, vegetables Telltale signs of a good snorgasbord include nodding heads, frequent yawning and, ultimately, the coveted mid-afternoon nap. Often the soporific,or sleep-inducing,effects are deceptively quick, sneaking up on you like your weird Uncle Bob shortly after the big holiday meal.

Did you know?

The word smörgåsbord is Swedish in origin (smörgås, meaning “open-faced sandwich” and bord, a “table”), and is used to describe a buffet-style meal with various dishes served on a table, often for a celebration or a special occasion. There are several types of these popular communal buffets, including the julbord (“jul” meaning yule), the traditional Christmas dinner in Sweden. A typical iteration of a julbord includes bread dipped in ham broth, fish, head cheeses, ham, meatballs, sausages and potatoes. Snoring is caused by the vibration of the soft palate, which obstructs the breathing passageways during sleep. The resulting sound can be soft or barely audible, but also may be intensely loud, muffled or hoarse. So it seems a refined palate for holiday food may lead you to slumber, your soft palate vibrating a staccato solo that may or may not be palatable for those around you.

b y Chocolate h e L b e a n s “All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.” - Charles M. Schulz

Written by: Liz Querusio Edited by: David Gignilliat

ab. Laboratory. lab-er-uh-tawr-ee. The word ‘lab’ often stirs images of technicians clad in white coat or visions of mad scientists mixing beakers and lighting Bunsen burners. Not necessarily chocolate.

But that’s exactly the potent, sweet and tasty compound to which Kelly Spivey has now devoted her time and energy. Since finishing an master’s in fine arts from the prestigious School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, she’s transformed herself from an artist into a modern-day food scientist, toiling away in her lab -- the kitchen -- constantly tinkering with that single ingredient that’s become her life’s passion -- chocolate. With her newest endeavor, The Chocolate Lab, Spivey specializes in the type of gourmet chocolate candy bars that make the mouth water and the mind wander.

Well FED

But like every creative soul, Spivey needed the funds to create her mad creation.

“I was hoping a magical fairy would leave a sack of money underneath my pillow one night,” opined Spivey in September on eat & talk, her popular Wordpress blog that explores veganand vegetarian-friendly topics.

Hoping to raise money for expensive equipment and related start-up costs, Spivey rolled up her sleeves and thought outside the box.

“My fundraising experience taught me that not only is community support invaluable for a business’ success, but it also reinforces the ideals that [the] community wants to see thrive,” says Spivey, a 2006 photography graduate of the Savannah College of Art & Design. “If people want more sustainable businesses in their community, they will support them.”

In September, she launched a page on KickStarter, a popular crowd funding website used to fund creative projects. Through Kickstarter, she found that she could persuade friends, colleagues and even strangers to help finance her efforts at sweet success. During the funding window, Spivey kept in touch with her supporters, posting several Kickstarter notes, including updates that included images of a newly-purchased commercial grade KitchenAid mixer. Ultimately, the project successfully reached its funding goal on October 15th, finishing with over $9800 from nearly 100 online benefactors. Spivey has already put the much-needed dollars to good use, purchasing equipment, designing candy bar labels and advancing distribution and marketing initiatives. “All the funds from the Kickstarter campaign have gone to equipment and supply purchases, packaging, and design. Essentially, I’ve managed to build the bare-bones of my business with what I have raised from Kickstarter,” says Spivey, 29, who hails originally from Rocky Mount, N.C.. “I’ve been able to buy all the equipment I need to make high-quality artisan candy bars as well as purchase my initial supply of organic, fair trade chocolate and other pantry items.” When starting a business from scratch, especially one as equipment-intensive as candy-making, every little morsel counts. To show her appreciation, Spivey offered a system of tiered rewards to those who contributed to her Kickstarter campaign, including stickers, website mentions, posters and, of course, her artisanal chocolate candy bar creations. With the Kickstarter campaign now complete, Spivey’s been busying herself returning the goodwill others had shown her.

Chocolate Nuggets What does 66% chocolate mean exactly? You might have seen a few gourmet organic chocolate bars with percentages on them. What these figures represent is the amount of cacao in the chocolate whether it is the cacao bean, powder, or butter. The higher the percentage, the higher the amount of cacao in the chocolate opposed to other ingredients like sugar and butter. A chocolate bar with 71% organic chocolate is going to have a darker, earthier taste than chocolate with 66% organic chocolate, which is creamier and fruitier. Beans grown on the same farm can range in taste from nuttiness, fruitiness, or any number of flavors. This can be due to various reasons from the beans not getting enough shade, genetics, or fermentation. The quality of the cacao bean is in the hands of the farmers who grow them.

What about the term “single origin”?

Most chocolate companies get their cacao beans from all over the place. One bar of chocolate could be made beans from multiple regions from just as many countries. A single origin chocolate bar means that it’s made form beans from the region, usually the same farm, and were grown and processed by the same people who planted them. By blending a variety of beans from the same region, you come out with a superior quality chocolate that has a rich, deep flavor. “I’ll be spending my holidays fulfilling my rewards for everyone who backed me on Kickstarter,” says Spivey, who has started offering her chocolates on Etsy, a popular art-and-crafty e-commerce website. “That means that I’ll be making over 600 candy bars to ship out to everyone who supported me and helped me get this business going.” Of course, it hasn’t been all chocolate brick roads and nougat dreams for her to get this far. She endured semesters of photography classes, one particularly cold Boston winter, and suffered for her art by gaining 20 pounds from chocolate tastings alone. Spivey stayed focused like her beloved camera, diligently pursuing her side project in her down time between work and school, baking cakes for her friends and mapping out what would eventually become The Chocolate Lab.

Goat Milk Caramel Bar

“I believe in getting right to the source of things whenever possible.” Although she enjoyed art school, her heart always seemed to come back to her love of baking, but in Kelly’s mind – baking wasn’t a career. Soon enough, upon returning to Savannah, she landed a baking job at Lulu’s Chocolate Bar where she began her love affair with all things chocolate. The downtown cafe provided a proving ground for her to learn all she could about gourmet chocolates, candy, and baking. In 2011, Kelly began working as a baker at Foxy Loxy Print Gallery and Café, an obliging neighborhood destination south of Forsyth Park on Bull Street .

All her candy bars are small-batch produced and preservative-free. Each bar is two inch-long by one inch-high portions, and comes in a customdesigned wrapper. With low carbon footprints and local ingredients like honey from the Savannah Bee Company, PERC coffee, and milk, cream, and butter from Southern Swiss Dairy, how could she go wrong? A sampling of Spivey’s unique sweet creations include Bourbon-Soaked Toasted Pecans, Maple Caramel Buttery Shortbread and Fig Caramel and Vanilla Nougat dipped in organic dark chocolate. Her personal favorite is the S’mores Bar dipped in 66% Organic TCHO chocolate. To spread the chocolate gospel, Spivey has hosted several tastings at Foxy Loxy, giving chocolate connoisseurs an opportunity to dig a little bit deeper into the stories behind the bars.

As a practicing vegan, Spivey brought her openminded sensibilities to the team at Foxy Loxy, crafting recipes for vegan brownies that are just as chocolatey as their dairy alternatives. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, Spivey stirred, poured, mixed, and melted her ideas for The Chocolate Lab, testing several varieties “At my chocolate tastings I discuss the of chocolate and candies to chocolate-making process to give the perfect her own version of attendees a better sense of how the flavor the classic candy bar. in the chocolate is created,” she notes. “ Of course, I don’t make chocolate from the bean, The kind of ingredients she uses but I do make it a point to educate everyone that are hardly run of the mill.

Holiday gift guide

This holiday season, consider buying local...

tudies have shown that buying from an independent, locally owned business, rather than a nationally owned business, equates to a significantly larger amount of your dollars staying within your community. This recirculation of money within the community, enhances and strengthens our local economy. Aside from the economic impact, locally made products also have less of environmental impact. Local products and the businesses who choose to sell them, travel less distances to reach the end consumer. In the case of food products, less transportation usually equates to a fresher product and higher level of quality overall. This holiday gift guide showcases some of our favorite stores and goods that exemplify the vibrancy and quality of our local independent business community. Remember that this really but a small sample of the richness of products and services available in Savannah. While it is not always possible to buy what you need

locally, we recommend the next time you are about to spend, that you think of buying local first! Together, we can all lend a hand to continue to make Savannah one of the most unique and independent cities in the South.

Did you know? If the people of an average American city were to shift just 10% of their spending from chains to local businesses, it would bring an additional $235 million per year to the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy. (To put that into perspective, the rationale behind the harbor deepening project is that it is projected to bring in $174 million per year to Savannahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy) A 10% shift of consumption to that of locally grown produce from local farms would save over 300,000 gallons of fuel consumption and reduce CO2 by 7.3 million pounds.

FARM in the

forest Written by Rhonda Barlow, MPH, RD, LD, CLC

verseeing the grooming of Georgia’s future farmers in the state’s fourth largest city is a task Madeleine Zador has successfully managed for over three years. Windsor Forest High School is home of the Savannah Chatham County Public School System’s only Agriscience Career Pathway.

These Future Farmers of America (FFA) students are seen all over town – from the school’s weekly “Market Fair” produce sale, to the Forsyth Farmer’s Market, to the Savannah Food Day Festival – promoting the virtues of sustainable gardening and small animal husbandry as they sell the fruits of their labor. All proceeds from the food and egg sales go to building the school’s Agriscience Program and to off-set the fees the students have to pay when they participate in various FFA competitions. The group won first place in the 2011 Meat Judging Area Competition. The Agriscience Program recently received a $56,000 Capital Equipment grant from the State Board of Education which was used to purchase a biodiesel processor, a hydroponics produce growing system and an aquaponics fish farm system. The community farmer turned Windsor’s Farm to School Mentor, Susan Giddens of Gratitude Gardens, is providing an opportunity for the FFA students to gain real-life farming and community engagement experiences. This work-based learning partnership provides the students the opportunity to participate in the practical farming experience from planting the seeds to washing and packaging the finished product for sale. Other Farm to School efforts at the school include partnering with the Nutrition Advisory Council student advisor, Joi Green, to conduct school health activities such as a school cafeteria makeover, nutrition/ agriculture education activities, and taste testing of the produce grown in the school’s garden. You can learn more about FFA at http://www.georgiaffa.org/index. php. If you would like to purchase a weekly farm box from the school or support the farm in the forest you can contact Madeleine Zador at 395-3400 or Susan Giddens at 313-3857.

All I want for Christmas...

C hloe is for adoption!

Whether you’re looking to adopt a new pet or you are just an animal lover, please consider the following rescues and shelters this holiday season. Shelter animals want only one thing for Christmas; A loving family. If you can’t give a shelter animal a home, you can donate funds, blankets, food, or just a helping hand to shelters that help animals find forever homes.

Solace Pit Bull Rescue

solacepitbullrescue.com

The idea for Solace was conceived in 2009 by Rob and Kelli Miller following the loss of their own Staffordshire Terrier, Louise. Louise, a gentle soul, was found chained to a tree. She was covered head to toe in scars and was emaciated to the point of not being able to stand. Once nursed completely back to health, Louise taught the Solace family the good and bad of being a bully breed owner. Prejudice against the breed was brought to light, as was the plight of most pit bulls, Staffordshire terriers, and other larger breeds in shelters across the world. Larger, more muscular dogs in shelters usually will NOT be adopted to good homes, or will be the first to be euthanized due to human fear and ignorance. Today, Solace is spreading the word that pits and other breeds are great dogs, and have even had theirs become Canine Good Citizens and Therapy Dogs. In the 3 years since they began, Solace has grown to include foster homes, volunteers, and a canine behaviorist to their growing family. If you are interested in adopting, please visit their website to view the dogs Solace Rescue has for adoption.

Chloe is a 5 year old playful girl looking for a forever home. She is spayed, heartworm negative, and up to date on vaccines. Chloe does well with other dogs and children. Please consider making her a part of your family. Please contact Solace Pit Bull Rescue if you are interested in meeting Chloe.

Humane Society of Greater Savannah

7215 Sallie Mood Drive / (912) 354-9515 / humanesocietysav.org

More than 55 years ago, a group of concerned animal lovers joined together to organize The Humane Society of Chatham-Savannah, Inc. (later changed to Greater Savannah). Their mission is to lead our community in the compassionate treatment of animals, to address the causes of animal suffering and overpopulation, to educate and encourage people to take responsibility for their animal companions and to provide care for animals in need. All funding is from private donation; special events; grants; and from the proceeds of their “Pick of the Litter” Thrift Shop. They receive NO funding from any government agency, and NO money from any other animal welfare organization including the Humane Society of the United States. That is why it is so important that we continue to support this pillar of animal welfare in Savannah. This holiday season, for that pet lover or impossible to shop for person in your life, consider giving the gift of a donation to the shelter in their name. You’ll be giving two gifts at the same time and you’ll both have that warm fuzzy feeling, knowing that you’re helping some furry friends have a warm place to stay this winter.

Pound Pups in Need/Savannah Chatham Animal Control

7211 Sallie Mood Drive / (912) 525-2151 / poundpupsinneed.com

This small dog rescue organization was formed to assist and save the homeless, abused, and neglected pets that end up at Savannah Chatham Animal Control. The dogs and cats that come to the Animal Control Shelter are all in need of loving and permanent homes to adopt them quickly because these animals are literally on “death row”. They are scheduled to be euthanized unless a rescue agency is able give them a foster home or a forever family chooses to adopt them. There are close to 100 animals - dogs and cats- on any given day and if you come visit, you are sure to find the pet that fits your family. Give an animal a second chance at life. Well FED

The wait is over. The paint is dry, the artwork hung, the furniture modern as new lighting lends an elegant gleam to the space’s fresh look. Photos: (in frame) Fried Duck and Waffles, Available on the brunch menu. (Below) A panoramic shot of the renovated interior.

B. Matthew’s is back, better than ever with a fresh new look and menu after a successful six-week renovation. In late November, B. Matthew’s Eatery celebrated its highly anticipated re-opening after the final touches on a stunning makeover. To mark the occasion, the East Bay Street restaurant invited longtime customers, business associates, media and special friends to a special ribbon cutting and grand re-opening event on Nov. 29. B. Matthew’s has been the flagship restaurant for Jennifer and Brian Huskey’s Gaslight Group since they purchased the downtown staple in 2006.

The dynamic pair evolved the former deli and bakery into a successful full-service restaurant, now open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The awards and steady business have confirmed the Huskeys’ deft touch including being named one of the Top 100 Brunches in America, OpenTable.Com. This past summer, the Huskeys acquired the B.Matthew’s property at 325 Bay Street, opening up an opportunity to implement several upgrades, many of which they’d been considering since 2006. The restaurant began renovations in early September, closing its doors to the public for a brief hiatus to complete the planned upgrades. In just six short weeks, workers finalized the interior and façade work, an astonishing feat considering the amount of work undertaken. The owners took great care to modernize the dining space with several casual yet elegant touches, while retaining the eatery’s historic charm. Renovations include several cosmetic updates to the dining area, new furnishings, fresh paint, new lighting, tile flooring and added additional storage. The kitchen also received a complete makeover,

with the addition of several new appliances and a more efficient use of space. In addition to visual changes, patrons can now sample gourmet treats from the new menu. B. Matthew’s has added several new items to its menus -- the Candied Tomato Flatbread, the BIG B Burger with eight ounces of mouthwatering Painted Hills grass-fed beef, crisp lettuce and the Fried Green Tomato Benedict, a novel take on the classic breakfast dish served with two poached eggs and crunchy fried green tomatoes. Regulars should rest easy as many of the old menu favorites will still be around, including classics like the Bay Street Scramble (breakfast), the Apple Pecan Chicken Salad Sandwich (lunch), and the Rosemary Confit Lamb Shank for a dinner choice. B. Matthew’s longtime manager Margaret Coughlin has also added specialty drinks, seasonal cocktails, martinis and margaritas to an already impressive drink lineup. The Pomegranate Ginger Martini features Van Gogh Pomegranate Vodka, Stirrings Organic Ginger Liqueur and orange juice.

Continued on next page.

A likely new favorite will be the refreshing “Sweet TeaTini,” a potent Southern-style amalgam of Firefly Sweet TeaVodka and lemonade over ice.As always, B. Matthew’s will continue to offer half-priced wine specials on Tuesdays and Thursdays and feature “Lighter Fare” menu items paired with glasses of white or red for just $20. Live music lovers and B. Matthew’s enthusiasts can also rejoice knowing that new musical entertainment will continue at the eatery. Thursday through Saturday will feature members of Velvet Caravan, a bluegrass lineup with folk influences rooted in Spanish, Moorish, Arabian, French and North African traditions. Thursday nights boast Jared Hall and Eric Dunn on the keyboard and double bass. On Fridays, Richard Ochoa and Sasha Strunjas will entertain on the violin and gypsy guitar, while Hall returns on Saturdays as solo keyboardist for busy winter evenings. With the state of the art renovations, updated décor, a revamped menu and and exciting ambient sounds, B. Matthew’s is sure to find itself once again a mustdo dining experience. B. Matthews is located at 325 E. Bay St. on the corner of Bay and Habersham. They are open for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and brunch on Sat. & Sun.

Winter Ratatouille Brought to you by Theo Smith of Cafe Florie. Intro by R.D. Rodgers.

t Cafe Florie, you’ll find a foodie’s dream come true, real soul food without the heart destroying side effects. Theo Smith, an entrepreneur born in Savannah educated by international travels, recovered from a cerebral aneurysm and resultant earlier this year, but has not let that slow him down from bringing a dynamic new flair to traditional soul food. In spite of diminished vision and a nearly unheard of recovery we have a new kid on the block that has garnered the attention of respected culinary publications. But let me back track. In December 2011 he decided to open an organic soulfood restaurant in his birthplace, along with his cousin the beautiful Latoya Rivers. Returning to Savannah in 2008 to restore some family property and base his photography business, Theo found he could not find a well paying job, in spite of his credentials. Frustrated

Well FED

by the lack of opportunity in Chatham Co. Theo and LaToya decided to create their own; Cafe Florie. Combining family recipes with his knowledge of fine cuisine and traditional low country cooking, along with her experience in marketing, they set out to bring Theo’s vision to life. “I wanted to create a multi-cultural meeting place serving healthy versions of the food I grew up with, as well as the food I came across during my travels. The dinner table is one place where an intermingling of cultures can take place in a spirit of congeniality and peace” Theo tells me over the scintillating aroma of ratatouille he had prepared for a photo shoot featuring some of his dishes. Ratatouille was a dish that had found its way onto Theo’s family table, but he never knew its origins. When his mother or grandmother prepared it, it was called stew, though in other parts of the country it may also be known as chili or goulash.

Theo chose to share his Ratatouille recipe because of its versatility. Whatever season it may be, you can always find fresh produce to substitute into this recipe that will still result in a perfectly tasty meal. The versatility of ratatouille also lies within the serving options; try it with the Cumin Scented Cous Cous, whole wheat pasta, white or brown rice, or even a piece of homemade cornbread.

At Café Florie, all the care in the world is taken in selecting the ingredients from local sources to help ensure a sustainable economy; Sustainability being an integral part of the Geechie/Gullah tradition from which low country style food stems. So let’s round up some fresh winter vegetables from the farmers’ market and put together a meal that will warm your soul from the inside out.

Cumin Scented Couscous 1 tsp Cumin Seeds 1 ½ Cups Couscous Sea Salt Black Pepper ½ Cup Raisins 1 tbsp Vegetable Powder 2 ¾ Cups Boiling Water

Take a dry pan and toast the Couscous and Cumin seeds until medium brown.Then pour into a large bowl, add raisins, then add the boiling water and vegetable powder, and stir until incorporated. Remove from heat and cover, let stand for 15 minutes.

Winter Ratatouille 2 Large White Onions chopped 4 Garlic Cloves 3 Whole tomatoes 2 medium Squash 2 medium Zucchini 1 Eggplant 6 Brussel Sprouts, cut in half 1 Red Pepper Flakes 2 tsp Thyme 2 tsp Oregano 1 tsp Rosemary Balsamic Vinegar 1 Peppers Sugar Sea Salt & Black Pepper Tap water

Add chopped onions to a dry pan on medium heat (no oil is used) add a tablespoon of tap water instead of oil, cook for 3-5 minutes until it begins to turn translucent. Then toss in your herbs, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes. Then add the rest of the chopped vegetables, and cook on medium to high heat for 20mins. Continuing adding tap water, small amount at a time. At the end of cooking add 2 tbsp of balsamic vinegar, salt & pepper. Visit Theo and Latoya at Cafe Florie for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. There are lots of vegetarian/vegan options and all meat used in their restaurant is raised hormone free, grain fed, and humanely slaughtered.You can also see them at the Forsyth Farmers’ Market every Saturday, selling amazing desserts at the Gateaux de la Toya Booth. Hours:Tue - Fri: 11:00 am - 8:00 pm, Sat: 9:00 am - 8:00 pm

From Vine to Table

A Family Holiday Memory Varietal

by Jason Restivo

recently asked my wife what her memories were of Christmas dinners growing up.We laughed and laughed at the fact that she could remember all kinds of miniscule details, from desserts and recipes to anecdotes told around the table, ... but I couldn’t remember anything at all. That’s when the idea hit me -- the topic of my holiday wine article would be the dinners of Christmas past.

I thought to myself -- this should be fun. Listening to her recall the complete holiday menus, I thought calling my father might be a good way to spark my memory, but I soon realized I should’ve called my mother first. Without as much as a pause, Mom recited the various dinner menus of our family’s Christmas celebrations. Now I could begin to compare the dishes from our collective pasts. With tasty details of tables overflowing with homemade foods now engrained in my mind and my mouth watering, I thought, “Wouldn’t it be great to pair the wines of today with the food of Christmases past? So let’s go back in time with the traditional Christmas menus of the S’s (my wife’s family) and the R’s (my family) and slip a perfectly paired glass of wine into the picture. According to Jen, her family dinners looked like this; oven-roasted ham with cloves and simmering apple cider delectably paired with tangy yet earthy Dijon mustard. A fresh salad with cauliflower and broccoli that often competed head-to-head against the family favorite, the “7-Layer Salad,” a precious culinary heirloom made with only the finest top secret ingredients. According to Jen, only by invitation to one of their dinners could an interloper find out what makes the “7-Layer Salad” so appetizing.

On some occasions, their family enjoyed sautéed asparagus and cheese sauce, but this next appetizer is what really takes the cake. Every family get-together, the family would prepare the best chip dip ever. Now, when I think of Christmas dinner, I have to admit that chips and dip doesn’t even come close to crossing my mind. But now, when I recall the first time I tried this infamous dip -- a diabolical amalgam of cream cheese, shaved onions, milk and celery salt -- I am reminded about the beauty of a family having their very own traditions when it comes to holiday dinners, … even if it is serving the best chip dip ever. My wife’s family is from the Northeast, a part of the country where family tradition seems to play such a strong part in holiday menus. Living in Savannah for the past few years and in the Southeast region for much of my youth, I’ve noticed a trend of Midwesterners migrating into the city, bringing their traditions to a new place with them. So with the S’s menu in mind, let’s pair some wine, holiday style!

Holiday hams, in all their forms, are a national treasure, but something I believe makes the S. family’s so unique is that the oven is already warm from the breakfast they just enjoyed together. The ham is rubbed with a little honey and kissed right into the oven, and then about an hour into cooking, Mrs. S (my mother-in-law) adds cider while also carefully slipping the cloves into the tart broth. Now in the wine world, everyone seems to know what wines goes best with ham, and they are generally correct, but pairing wine with the ingredients of the brine is what I love to do. For both the white and red wine selection, I chose two beautiful wines from Spain. My choice of white would be Castelo do Papa Godello, a unique white wine varietal from Valderras, Spain. It has a waxy, yet medium body, almost like a chardonnay. There is a little green spice that welcomes the graininess of the mustard and the acidity of this wine is truly one of things I love most about it. The acidity is almost zippy and playful, as if the acids and the cider got along like two twins playing on a merry go round. And for the red wine pairing, I’m really excited about Bobal, La Malkerida. This varietal reminds me of a farm wine that was just waiting until 2012 to show itself and become the “go to” wine for this holiday. The flavor profile is almost similar to a pinot noir. It has more of the ripe, yet astringent red fruit flavor and the brown spices are a pleasant holiday surprise on the back palate. The fact that you will be serving a bobal with Christmas ham, could be the coolest thing since sliced bread.

Now the R’s didn’t stick to traditional dishes every year. There was a back and forth of menu designs each Christmas. We had a large summer garden, growing everything that I didn’t like as a child, but now as a fullyformed adult, I say bring it on, I love it all. The main dish at our celebrations would rotate from turkey, ham, deer and then back to turkey again. So it was our side dishes that really never changed. My mother would make green bean casserole, and as a kid this was not my favorite dish.

retails between $14-$18*

The other S’s dishes carry the same amount of care, and are equally as fun to eat as they are to find wines for. The acidity of both wines sing this great tune with the richness of the cream cheese and the creaminess of the cheese on the asparagus. The earthiness of these wines complements vegetable side dishes just as well. These wines are far from typical, but I feel that they are just hitting their stride, in the beginning stages of resurgence that could see them eventually becoming everyday Southern wines.

We always had an amazing sweet potato soufflé with marshmallows and a creamy macaroni and cheese. When it comes to the main dish, my palate almost always favored turkey and homemade stuffing. The classic ingredients of carrots, onions, celery and the crust of house-made sourdough bread are simple yet timeless. The stuffing was like dessert for me and the moisture of a perfectly-cooked turkey is best paired with, wait for it … wait for it … Frogtown Chardonnay! Yes, it may have taken me six years to get to this moment, but my final answer is Georgia chardonnay. Lumpkin County, Ga., that is. This perfectly balanced chardonnay is an ideal pairing with the earthy root sweetness of the sweet potato soufflé and the over-the-top creaminess of mac and cheese. I’ve also fallen hard for Hawkes Merlot from Alexander Valley, California. I have always thought merlot being this unbalanced twister of blue fruit and aggressive tannins. But I was wrong, I’ll admit it, just like I was wrong about mom’s green bean casserole. These two items are just so much fun, and they’re good for the soul. This farm family winery is true to its foundation of pure fruit and firm structure. With rich blueberry tones and soft chocolate tannins, you could take these descriptions and replace the cream and cheese of the mac and cheese and the dish would come out the same as the same dish; macaroni and chocolate tannins should be its name.

Now let’s talk about dessert. My mother was so happy making apple and pumpkin pies, filling our home with the aromas of warm flour and heated brown spices. When I think of Christmas dinners and desserts, I think of the fortified wine trio of Porto, Madeira and Sherry. Sherry offers the sweetness of red fruits found in Portos, but has the finesse and acid structure found in Madeiras. Basically it’s right in the middle of the two. I recently came across a drink called “Cobblers,” a sherry-based cocktail. It calls for ripe red and black fruits, crushed ice and cream sherry. As Christmas draws near, I look forward to blending new and old experiences, my wife’s and my own, like the fine wines we will enjoy … This will be fun. These wines and ingredients for the cocktail can be found at your local bottle shops. I’ve seen the Alvear Cream Sherry at Habersham Beverage and the wines at Johnny Ganem’s Winery and Package Store. Claude Auerbach at Form, is also fond of carrying these wines, from different producers. Christian Depken of Le Chai, is well-known locally for representing humble and smaller families behind cool varietals like Bobal and Godello. Shop local and pick up your choice of wines at one of these fine purveyors!

What exactly is a bar? Is it any place that has a physical bar which you can sit at? Does it have to be a full bar or does just beer count too? What about a wine bar? Sake bar? Bar and grill? Well FED strives to give you the most accurate and complete listings possible, but we need your help. If you feel your bar should be included in the Well FED Bar Guide, contact us on Facebook or shoot an email to guide@wellfedsavannah.com.
