IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN! This week on Marti’s Music Kitchen, the Fun Music and Food Podcast where anything can happen, we’re still on vacation in the birthplace of Jazz - New Orleans! Do we have to go back home? Marti’s joined today by two shining stars from the newly opened Jewel of the South restaurant in New Orleans; co-owners Chris Hannah and Chef Phil Whitmarsh. Chris is THE authority of classic cocktails in the South, even having attained a 2017 James Beard Award for the Best Bar in America. Chef Phil has created dishes in England and Australia, and he learned authentic Cajun cooking from his wife’s family in Louisiana. While Chef Phil works away in the kitchen on Bone Marrow Cream, Caviar, and Madeleines, Chris takes over the bar to teach Marti about his signature cocktail, the “French 75” - one of Marti’s favorites! As if one wasn’t enough, he’ll light up the night with the “Night Tripper,” a drink made in honor of New Orlean’s own Dr. John. What is it about New Orleans that makes people want to eat, drink, and be merry? What the heck is a crusta?! Come along with Marti on this special, on-the-road podcast and find out! https://www.facebook.com/jewelofthesouthnola/ https://www.jewelnola.com/ https://www.instagram.com/jewelnola/ https://www.instagram.com/count_hannah/ http://MartiMendenhall.com http://Patreon.com/MartiMendenhall Mr. Hannah’s specialty drink recipes! Chris Hannah’s French 75 1.25 oz Cognac .35 oz Lemon Juice .25 oz Simple Syrup 2 oz Champagne Lemon peel Chris Hannah’s Night Tripper (made in honor of Dr. John) 1.75 oz Bourbon .75 oz Amaro .25 oz Strega 2 dashes Peychauds Orange peel Bone Marrow Cream, Caviar, Madeleines: A multi-part recipe! From the Jewel of the South Restaurant, Chef Phil Whitmarsh First, the Madeleines are fabulous all on their own. So you can make them separately any time and enjoy them. However, they are so incredibly impressive with the bone marrow cream, if you have the time - you will want to make it!! This recipe is not difficult, but it is a mult-step process. You will make the Bone Cream, the Pangrattato, the boiled egg yolks and the madeleines. You can make the boiled egg yolks ahead. I would get the bone cream in the oven, and then time the madeleines to come out just after the bone cream is done cooking. Truly a treat for a special occasion with the ones you love. Enjoy the cocktails while you cook!

Thanks, also to Jason Jurzak, our NewOrleans recording engineer! And finally, to the on-the-road helpers, Todd Weedman and Bill Hinkle. #ChrisHannah #Bartender #Cocktails #French75 #JeweloftheSouth #NewOrleans #NOLA #Chef #PhilWhitmarsh #MartiMendenhall #MartisMusicKit #Cooking #Podcast #Recipe #Food #EatNOLA #SouthernCooking #BoneMarrow #Madeleines #Jazz #Music #MusicAndFood #MMK #ChefPhilWhitmarsh #Artisan #CraftCocktails #Madeleines #BoneMarrowCream #MasterBartender #CharlieHalloran

Blend all marinade ingredients using a food processor or blender and pour over the meat. Gently work the marinade into the meat with your hands. Cover and refrigerate for at least four hours. Cook the marinated meat and vegetables together over medium-high 4-5 minutes, until meat is cooked through. Serve in a bowl over rice. Add an egg, over-easy on the top if desired. * A great alternative to using a bowl to marinate is to put the meat and marinade in a large plastic bag, seal it and work it into the meat that way. THEN refrigerate in the bag. #MartisMusicKit #MartiMendenhall #SophieLee #ThreeMusesNOLA #ThreeMuses #FrenchmenStreet #FridayNight #TGIF #NOLA #cocktails #cocktailtime #cocktailhour #latenightnola #drinkingnola #thespottedcat #bulgogi #neworleans #travel #louisiana #jazz #jazzlover #jazzsinger #MMK #RiceBowl #podcast #art #artist #artlover #musiclover #musician #music

Welcome to the 33rd episode of Marti’s Music Kitchen, the Fun Music and Food Podcast, where anything can happen! Today’s guest is Kris Deelane, lead singer in Portland’s Old School/New School Soul extravaganza band, Kris Deelane and The Hurt. Throughout her extensive and amazing music career, she’s shared the stage with names like Joan Jett, Brian Wilson, and Pee Wee Ellis, just to name a few! Let’s not forget what we’re here for, though-- she loves to cook! “I’ll never forget the first time that I learned to make a scrambled egg. [laughs] I was like, a little kid, and my mom took me-- like, I would always help her beat the eggs, but I didn’t know how it got from that liquid, gooey, gross thing into that scrambled egg that I liked as a kid. And I just remember she gave me this spatula and I was so amazed I was just like, this is like magic!” Kris went above and beyond, creating an entirely new recipe just for this show! Come along with us as she makes kale, tempeh and black bean street tacos, and a batch out-of-this-world Avocado Margaritas. What philanthropic pursuit led to Kris’ recent stay in Mexico? And why did she choose Motown as the feature for her cover band? Find out with me in episode 33 of Marti’s Music Kitchen!

Add tempeh to the pan, with a bit of water to aid in breaking it up. Add taco seasoning and kale, letting simmer until it cooks down. Spoon onto a tortilla of your choice and enjoy! Optional toppings: *Corn chips *Pico de gallo (store bought is fine!) *Shredded jack or cheddar cheese, or Miyoko’s Smoked Mozzarella Style vegan cashew-based cheese *Homemade roasted tomatillo salsa (homegrown tomatillos, garlic, and homegrown hot peppers roasted in oven and blended with raw white onion, salt and pepper once cool - it's important that it's cool first or the blender blasts out a bunch of hot sauce and can burn you) *"Kris's Butt-Hurt Sriracha" hot sauce - because, really, these jalapenos just got no heat (all the hottest peppers I grew blended with garlic, salt and a bit of sugar, and fermented for 9 days) Avocado Margaritas Ingredients: 1 cup Blanco/white 100% agave tequila (I use Lunazul) 1 cup Trader Joe's Margarita Mix (no corn syrup or overpriced agave syrup) ½ of an avocado Fistful of cilantro. Directions: Blend all ingredients before adding the ice to the blender, or you get chunks of frozen avo instead of the ice creamy milkshake texture we're going for. It sounded SO gross when I first heard about it, but it's dreamy (and strong!) #KrisDeelane #KrisDeelaneandTheHurt #krisdeelaneandthehurt #pdxmusicians #motownsounds #pdxmusicscene #LiveMusic #PdxMusic #PdxEvents #Portland #MartiMendenhall #MartisMusicKit #Cooking #Podcast #Recipe #Vegetariancooking #Vegetarian #Tacos #Kale #Margarita #Cocktail #PDXEats #MusiciansWhoCook #MMK #VolunteeringInMexico #Volunteerism

Welcome to Marti’s Music Kitchen, the Fun Music and Food Podcast, where anything can happen! Today’s guest is soul singer-songwriter Tahirah Memory. Her beautiful, agile vocals are the perfect blend for her unique mix of Jazz and Soul. She is also the daughter of the late grammy-award winner, Dr. Thara Memory. “During the recording process, I don’t listen to music from other people. I feel like it’s kind of cheating on a relationship you have with your music, you know, because you’re trying to have a very . . . untainted relationship with your songs, your music and your production. When you listen to other people’s songs there’s envy.” Outspoken and unapologetic, she is a huge believer in other people; in all they are, and all they can become. In her own words, sound is her own personal truth. Tahirah is known for creating an intimate show whereby her audience often feels like she is speaking directly to them. Full episode link here: https://soundcloud.com/martismusickitchen/mmk-tahirah-memory-eps2-32-producing-writing-loss-staying-healthy-school-night-pizza Her sophomore album, Asha, received nominations for Female Vocalist of the Year, Best Album, AND Best Song by SoulTracks, https://www.soultracks.com/2019-award-nominees. Through it all, she has elegantly balanced parenting, working out, and taking “cooking healthy” to a seriously fun level. On today’s menu, School Night Mini Pizzas. Pizza while working out? I’m in! Tahirah’s career is in high-gear. So how does she balance being a single parent with extended International tours? And how does she stick to her health and fitness regimen when she’s on the road?
