blackberry recipes

Hi there, my name is Heidi Swanson. 101 Cookbooks is my recipe journal. It's where I write about the recipes that intersect my life, travels, and everyday interests. Often the recipes are from my cookbook collection, sometimes not - they might come from a friend, or I might write about a recipe I created myself.

I focus primarily on natural, whole foods and ingredients - vegetarian recipes that are good for you and for the planet. Welcome!

Chile Blackberry Syrup - July 2, 2010

Inspired by a recipe in the September 2007 issue of Gourmet Magazine - a slow-burning, sweet and spicy, chile-infused blackberry syrup. It's great in spritzers, cocktails, on toast, in oatmeal, and on and on.

Blackberry Limeade - June 22, 2008

Travel

Although I love California, I jump at nearly every chance to visit new places. Often times I'll mention a new destination here and you'll generously offer insights and suggestions. Telling me the places I should seek out. It's great. Here's a list of travel-related posts.
