Listen to this podcastGarlicky Hempseed Chipotle Ranch Dressing
- 1 cup hempseeds
- 1 cup water
- 3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/4 cup lime juice (you could also use lemon)
- 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 whole chipotle pepper, canned in adobo
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (you could also use parsley)
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Place the hempseeds, water, and garlic into a high-powered blender and blend until hempseeds are smooth and creamy. Add remaining ingredients and blend the mixture well. The dressing can be made spicier by adding more chipotles or less spicy by removing their seeds. Add salt and pepper to taste, and serve.
Note: You are likely to have leftover dressing which, believe me, is a very good thing! It will thicken up, so you might need to thin it with water before using.

Me So Corny (9/10/11)
Listen to this podcastGrilled Corn with Red Pepper Butter
First, completely submerse all of the corn you will be cooking under water. This will provide extra moisture for cooking. Let the ears of corn soak for at least 15 minutes prior to cooking.
Preheat a grill for high heat and lightly oil grate. Peel back corn husks and remove silk. Drizzle with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Close husks.
Wrap each ear of corn tightly in parchment first, then aluminum foil. Place on the prepared grill. Cook approximately 30 minutes, turning occasionally, until corn is tender. Serve with the following yumminess:
- 4 oz. (1/2 cup) Earth Balance (non-hydrogenated margarine) or unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup jarred roasted red peppers, drained well and finely chopped
- 1 large shallot, minced (1/4 cup)
- 1-1/2 Tbs. sherry vinegar
- 1 Tbs. chopped fresh thyme
Mix all ingredients together and serve slathered (isn’t slathered a great word?) on grilled roasted corn.
