  • Recipe Pappardelle with Zucchini Ribbons

    Pappardelle with Zucchini Ribbons


    Why hello there! I know it's been a while. I thought I could slip out quickly without much notice, but one week at home in Colorado turned into two when I discovered that I really didn't want to leave. I mean, come on. With a heatwave in[...]
  • Recipe My Mother's Chicken and Rice Soup

    My Mother's Chicken and Rice Soup


    So, the other day? I got my rent bill for August from my landlord. August. The last month of summer, is upon us. And although I'm pretty much done with the humidity and the heat and (I'm sorry to say) the summer tourists (don't worry,[...]
  • Recipe Honey Caramelized Onions and Apples

    Honey Caramelized Onions and Apples


    My favorite French Bistro , just down the street, does something amazing with onions. The chef caramelizes them in honey and then adds them to things like crepes along with ham and gruyere cheese. When I do caramelized onions I tend to use[...]
  • Recipe Green Tea Risotto with Peas and Mint

    Green Tea Risotto with Peas and Mint


    Now this is a springtime recipe.  And it came about in several different ways.  First, there was the issue of the dying refrigerator, which forced me to pour a pot of just-made chicken stock (tearfully, of course) down the drain.  Then there[...]
  • Recipe Norwegian Kakemenn, Norwegian Cake Men

    Norwegian Kakemenn, Norwegian Cake Men


    I think if R had to pick his most favorite holiday treat ever, and if he wasn't allowed to pick these Norwegian truffles , called konfekt, he would for sure go for kakemenn. This recipe comes from his best friend's mom, because they are[...]
  • Recipe Lavender and Crème Fraîche Scones

    Lavender and Crème Fraîche Scones


    This is one good example of when nice things come out of annoying situations.  I won't go into it too much here, but my landlord is the worst landlord on the planet.  I have a whole list of reasons to dislike him and how he treats his tenants.[...]
  • Recipe Cooked Pumpkin Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

    Cooked Pumpkin Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies


    It seems that whenever I remember reading about an interesting combination or technique, these persimmon chips being one example, a quick google search leads me back to Esi and her blog Dishing up Delights .  And that, my friends, is where[...]
  • Recipe Sauteed Fiddlehead Ferns with Parmesan Cheese

    Sauteed Fiddlehead Ferns with Parmesan Cheese


    These are charming little scrolls, aren't they? I had never seen a fiddlehead fern until I moved to New York. Largely uncultivated, and with a fleeting growing season, you'd be lucky to find them even here, although they do grow wild throughout[...]
  • Recipe Potato and Celery Root Mash with Coconut Milk

    Potato and Celery Root Mash with Coconut Milk


    I've been thinking about mashed potatoes and coconut milk for a few days now.  Used to add creaminess to some of our favorite dishes, such as curries, I thought it just might get along famously with the mashed potato.  Besides, coconut milk[...]
  • Recipe Butternut Squash Quesadillas with Leeks and Feta

    Butternut Squash Quesadillas with Leeks and Feta


    So last night? Last night I made something delicious. I mean, for me, you'd have to work pretty hard to make something inedible out of butternut squash. Luckily, you can also work not-very-much to make something Wonderful. Case in point.[...]
