Fresh Salsa with Roasted Tomatoes, Fresh Peppers, and Onions

Salsa is a terrific snack. Its primary components are vegetables and its acidity, heat, and natural sweetness satisfy in a guilt-free way. It is no wonder that every grocery store sells so many varieties of salsa. We can walk down the condiment aisle and expect to be able to choose from a variety of roasted, [...]

Canning Green Goddess Organics Heirloom Tomatoes in Monterey, CA

As the last scrumptious jars of Green Goddess Organics Heirloom Tomatoes disappear from my shelves I am reminded of the misty fresh sea air in Monterey. Last fall, just before moving back east, my buddies Katie, Robin, Gerick and I canned a heaping pile of the most juicy ripe tomatoes we could find to carry [...]

Italian Chicken Stew with Cannellini Beans, Kale, and Eggplant

I use the term “stew” loosely in titling this recipe. The result is not so much a stew as a braise, as I use whole chicken thighs and the broth is rich and thick. However, I find it to be delicious and satisfying as a stand alone dish, and as I am always chatting with [...]

Anadama Bread Recipe – Traditional New England Molasses Bread

Anadama – what a weird name for a type of bread.  I think I was first interested in making this bread because of the name.  After sampling some of it for the first time at The Friendly Toast in Portsmouth, NH years ago – it’s been a great go to bread for me ever since. [...]

Salt Cod Brandade Recipe from Caiola’s in Portland, ME – A Classic Winter Appetizer Recipe!

Brandade is something that I ate for the first time at Craigie on Main in Cambridge, MA – served in a small ball that had been lightly fried and served on top of squid ink aioli.  Ok, so that was my introduction to the stuff – and obviously I didn’t set out to replicate that [...]

Chewy Ginger Molasses Holiday Cookies – Ginger SNAPS!

Everyone loves to eat cookies during the holidays and these will make you very popular.  You can bake them tomorrow and they will still be soft and chewy on Christmas.  I brought them in to work because it was too dangerous to keep them at home, and they were gone before 9am. If you want [...]

Momofuku Ginger Scallion Noodles Recipe with Cauliflower and “Quick Pickled” Cucumbers

When visiting New York City recently, we got an opportunity to head to Momofuku Noodle Bar in the Village, which after going through the cookbook, was a big draw for me. Going in, I knew that the two dishes I was going to have the most difficult time choosing between would be the Momofuku Ramen [...]

Warm Butternut Squash Salad with Chanterelles and Brussel Sprouts and Bacon Vinaigrette

This is a dish of contrast. The bright green of the brussels is beautiful next to the orange squash and the butter-colored mushrooms. The acidity of the vinaigrette balances the sweetness of the butternut squash and the nuttiness of the brussel sprouts. The crispness of the bacon is balanced by the tenderness of the squash [...]

Tuscan White Bean Soup with Kale and Sausage

When those first really cold days of the season sneak up on you, it is a little hard to shake off the chill.  I came up with this recipe after a full day at work wishing that I had worn wool socks and boots (instead of no socks and ballet flats) and a warm sweater [...]

Classic American Caeser Salad Recipe – The De-Commercialized Caeser Salad

This is a re-post of a classic recipe that is and will always be a part of our household – Aimee’s family Caeser salad recipe. The first time this was made for me, I literally was bowled over by how different this caeser was compared with all those other sub-par caeser’s that I’d eaten in [...]
