Palm-sized, circular dumplings that are pulled together in a swirling flourish at the top – Nepalese momos are an edible work of art. Tucked inside each delectable one is a mixture of fresh ingredients that are cooked before being stuffed inside the thin dumpling dough, to ensure the filling stays moist once they're steamed.

Gather and Graze Recipe: Frangipane Blueberry Mini Galettes

We are so happy to share with you a recipe from an extraordinary new cookbook, Gather & Graze (click here to read our review and author interview!). It's peak blueberry season here in Michigan, and we've already picked almost 100 pounds over near South Haven (and almost a month left in the season to go!). I thought to save some from our picking Monday (in the rain, but oh so worth it) to make these. They are SO delicious.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded! - Ralph Waldo Emerson
