This month, Slightly North of Broad Executive Sous Chef Megan Hutchinson is sharing her recipe for a strawberry benne seed waffle. Ripe local strawberries are combined with fluffy batter and benne seeds and topped with warm maple syrup and a splash (or two) of bourbon. Megan doesn’t skimp on a scoop of vanilla ice cream, too. Drool.

In Columbia this morning, Charleston County’s financial advisor, attorney and Chairman Elliott Summey presented the county’s plans to fund its portion of the extension of I-526, primarily using revenue from the 2004 and 2016 half-cent sales taxes.

This month, we’re sharing not one, but two glorious recipes using Lowcountry Creamery goods. The first is a gluten-free coffee cake from our friends at Basic Kitchen, which replaces regular ol’ sour cream with rich crème fraiche. The second is roasted butternut squash with harissa, buttermilk vinaigrette, feta and pumpkin seeds from Sorghum & Salt. You’ll want to lick the bowl!

Frozen edamame is spun with a touch of white miso, tahini, lemon and salt. The result is a creamy snack that nods to Spring and garden shades of green, best paired with your favorite chip or crudité.
