The Food Network has a new show called "Heartland Table" hosted by one Amy Thielen of whom I have never heard. She's a native of Minnesota, and, according to their web site, she will be "celebrating all things Midwest" and sharing "rustic recipes from inside her log cabin."
Well, cool. Today's premier episode was all about making things with butter -- so much butter, in fact, that one wonders if she is channeling Paula Deen. There was a blueberry-lemon pie with a butter crust and new potatoes with grilled onion butter. Well, okay.
The final dish, however, really brought it home. Nothing spells rustic Minnesota log cabin more than collard greens with traditional Ethiopian spices.
