Jaden’s NYC Quest

Get ready for some truly spectacular news from the heart of our small business! It’s no secret that navigating the entrepreneurial landscape can be a formidable challenge, especially when every resource counts. Unlike larger corporations, our modest budget rarely stretches to encompass the hefty fees of top-tier PR agencies or the strategic insights of high-priced consultants. We thrive on agility, relying on our innate scrappiness and selectively engaging highly focused specialists precisely when and where they’re needed most.

Just last week, after what felt like an eternity – a year and a half, thanks to the global pause – I finally packed my bags for a critical trip. My destination: the vibrant, bustling streets of New York City. The mission? To meticulously refine our public relations strategy and forge invaluable connections with key members of the press. This wasn’t just another business trip; it was a pivotal moment for Steamy Kitchen, a chance to elevate our presence and share our story on a much grander scale.

From Passion Project to Times Square: A Dream Come True

So, how did this ambitious venture unfold? Prepare yourselves, because the outcome was absolutely mind-blowing! Imagine my utter disbelief, my overwhelming excitement, as I stood face-to-face with an enormous billboard on NYC’s iconic 6th Avenue, and there it was: MY FACE staring back at me! Can you believe it? This wasn’t just a fleeting moment; it was a vivid, electrifying affirmation of years of hard work, dedication, and the unwavering support of our incredible community.

As I navigated a whirlwind of meetings with esteemed editors, producers, and journalists, passionately pitching the unique story behind Steamy Kitchen, I found myself in a truly surreal position. Instead of merely describing our brand’s essence, I could simply gesture towards the colossal billboard and proudly declare, “That’s me!” It was an unparalleled ice-breaker, a powerful visual statement that commanded attention and instantly conveyed the authenticity and growing prominence of our brand. Witnessing my image on such a magnificent scale was an experience I’ll cherish forever – a testament to dreams realized and the unexpected journeys of entrepreneurship.

My excitement was palpable, a moment frozen in time that I absolutely had to capture and share. Take a look below to see the sheer joy and astonishment that lit up my face!

Recipe of the Week: Creative Ways to Repurpose Your Leftover Charcuterie Board

What To Do With A Leftover Charcuterie Board

As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, there’s nothing quite like gathering friends and family around a beautifully curated charcuterie board. It’s the quintessential fall entertaining centerpiece, brimming with an array of cheeses, cured meats, artisan crackers, fresh fruits, and savory spreads. But once the festivities wind down and your guests depart, you’re often left with a medley of delicious, yet somewhat disparate, components. The question then arises: what to do with all that leftover gourmet goodness?

Here at Steamy Kitchen, we are staunch advocates against food waste. Every morsel has potential, and transforming leftovers into exciting new meals is one of our culinary superpowers. We believe that creativity in the kitchen not only saves food but also sparks joy and innovation.

Instead of relegating those delicious remnants to the back of the fridge or, worse, the trash bin, why not embark on a culinary adventure? We’ve compiled our absolute best ideas for giving your charcuterie board ingredients a second life, turning them into delectable dishes that are just as impressive as the original spread. From inventive sandwiches and savory tarts to gourmet salads and comforting frittatas, your leftover cheeses, meats, and even crackers can be the foundation for your next delightful meal. Say goodbye to waste and hello to delicious repurposing!

Jaden’s Weekly Tip: Maximize Your Fall Flavors with Pumpkin Puree Hacks

Pumpkin Puree Freeze & Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

For many of us, the arrival of autumn means baking up delightful pumpkin-infused treats. However, it’s a common scenario: a recipe calls for just a half-cup of pumpkin puree, leaving you with the vast majority of a can. Don’t let that precious, versatile ingredient go to waste! I’ve got a fantastic hack that ensures not a single spoonful of pumpkin goodness is lost, and it sets you up for future culinary delights.

Here’s my go-to tip: transfer the remaining pumpkin puree into ice cube trays. Once filled, cover them tightly to prevent freezer burn and simply pop them into the freezer. After they’ve solidified into convenient pumpkin pucks, transfer these frozen cubes into a freezer-safe bag or airtight container. This simple trick makes portioning incredibly easy, allowing you to grab just the right amount for future recipes without thawing an entire can.

One of my absolute favorite ways to utilize these frozen pumpkin puree cubes is by whipping up a delectable and healthy Fall Pumpkin Pie Smoothie. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the comforting flavors of autumn in a refreshing and nutritious drink. Just combine coconut milk for a creamy base, a frozen banana for natural sweetness and thickness, a generous dash of pumpkin pie spice for that signature seasonal aroma, and a few of your frozen pumpkin puree cubes. Blend until smooth and creamy, and voilà – you have a luscious, fall-inspired smoothie that tastes like pie in a glass!

We’re always looking for new ideas! What ingenious ways do you use your leftover pumpkin puree? Share your favorite hacks and recipes with our vibrant community on the Steamy Kitchen Facebook Page!
