[cliccare il link per andare direttamente al raccolto della edizione italiana di WHB]
As the host of last week's edition of WHB, I am pleased to present an interesting set of posts submitted by bloggers from various countries. For each contribution, I will give you the official information (author, blog name and post title) and a short quote or brief description that summarizes it, a teaser that invites you to follow the link to read the relevant post. Follow me: it will be an interesting tour. At the end, I will reveal the winner of the book giveaway.
Cathy of Delaware Girl Eats prepared Posole Stew with Delaware Pole Lima Beans
Delaware is home to "pole limas that are grown nowhere else. These are found only during the season at farmers markets or from a friendly neighbor willing to share his or her bounty."
Janet of The Taste Space prepared Chocolate Chip (Chickpea) Blondies
"Fudgy and moist like brownies but without any cocoa. Speckled with chocolate chips and sweetened with dates... Nut-free, to boot, these treats are made with chickpeas!"
Lynne of Cafe Lynnylu prepared Tomatillo Guajillo Salsa
"Roasting the tomatillos under the broiler brings out the sweet tart flavor of the fruit while toasting the dried chiles deepens the intensity of the chile flavor resulting in wonderful melding of flavors."
Marija of Palachinka prepared Cheese-stuffed Peppers
"Something unusual... In this part of Serbia, they don’t skim milk before they make cheese, so cheese is strong and salty. They often use sheep or goat milk cheese."
Haalo of Cook (almost) Anything at Least Once made Stuffed Eggplants
After stuffed peppers it is all too fitting to showcase some stuffed eggplants offered as a vacation memento by Haalo as she unpacks from her recent trip to Italy.
Brii of Briggishome prepared Pumpkin & Tomato Tapenade
Not even pelting rains keeps Brii indoor (I don't think anything does :). After getting a good soak, she came home to make a recipe from her pumpkin cookbook Das Grosse Buch Vom Kürbis.
Simona of briciole (your host for this week) prepared Chestnut, Bean and Potato Soup
"What I like about this soup is that the flavor of each main ingredient is perfectly clear to the palate and the chorus sings beautifully."
As announced, this edition of Weekend Herb Blogging includes a book giveaway, courtesy of Amanda McTigue, whose novel Going to Solace has been the subject of a recent post I wrote. Seven people participated this week and the random number generator gave me the number 6 as its choice. The sixth person to send me her contribution is our esteemed organizer, Haalo of Cook (almost) Anything at Least Once: congratulations! I will send Haalo the autographed copy of the book I have received from the author.
A heartfelt Thank you! to all who contributed to the event. Lynne of Cafe Lynnylu is currently accepting submissions for this week's edition of Weekend Herb Blogging. You can always look ahead to who's hosting on this page. And if you are new to the event or need a reminder, the rules for participating are detailed on this page.
A final thank you to Haalo of Cook (almost) Anything at Least Once, who organizes the event started by Kalyn of Kalyn's Kitchen. It gives me special pleasure to be part of an established tradition that links so many food bloggers around the world.

Weekend Herb Blogging #359: il riepilogo
Come ospite dell'edizione di Weekend Herb Blogging della scorsa settimana, ho l'onore di presentare dei bellissimi post. Per ognuno, specifico i dati ufficiali (autore, nome del blog e titolo del post) e poi aggiungo una citazione o breve descrizione che riassume il post, un assaggino che vi invita a seguire il link per andare a mangiare leggere il resto. E come dessert potete leggere il risultato dell'estrazione del libro messo in palio questa settimana.
Graziana di Erbe in cucina presenta Pizzoccheri alle tre salvie
Invece delle tradizionali coste, Graziana ha usato del pak choi dal suo terrazzo (nonché la sua salvia). "Il pak choi in effetti con i suoi gambi dolci e croccanti ha un gusto molto simile a quello delle coste."
Brii di Briggishome ha preparato della Tapenade di Zucca & pomodoro
Nemmeno la pioggia battente tiene a casa Brii (credo che niente ci riesca). Dopo essersi bagnata bene, è tornata a casa e ha preparato una ricetta dal suo librone sulle zucche Das Grosse Buch Vom Kürbis.
Simona di briciole presenta Zuppa di castagne, fagioli e patate
"Quello che mi piace di questa zuppa è che il sapore di ognuno degli ingredienti principali è perfettamente chiaro al palato e tutti insieme fanno un bel coro."
Come annunciato, questa edizione di Weekend Herb Blogging include un libro in regalo offerto da Amanda McTigue, del cui romanzo Going to Solace ho parlato in un recente post. Sette persone hanno partecipato a questa edizione di e il generatore di numeri random ha scelto il numero 6. La sesta persona a mandarmi il suo contributo è stata Haalo di Cook (almost) Anything at Least Once: congratulazioni! Manderò ad Haalo la copia autografata del libro che ho ricevuto dalla scrittrice per l'occasione.
Grazie di cuore a tutti coloro che hanno contribuito all'evento. Questa settimana l'ospite di WHB è Kris di Tutto ad occhio. Se volete saperne di più sull'evento potere andare su questa pagina. Qui invece trovate chi ospita e le raccolte delle edizioni passate.
Un ringraziamento finale ad Haalo di Cook (almost) Anything at Least Once, che organizza la versione "madre" dell'evento creato da Kalyn di Kalyn's Kitchen e a Brii di briggishome che organizza la versione italiana. È bello far parte di una tradizione che unisce da tanto tempo food bloggers in tutto il mondo.
A delicious collection of comfort food. Thanks for hosting. And congratulations to Haalo on winning Going to Solace!

You are welcome, Cathy. Hope the weather gets better there.
Fatti tentare, Graziana :)
Ciao Brii. You are welcome. I can certainly believe it. I don't think I would survive a single winter there.
