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 [...]
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 [...]
Oleana’s Whipped Feta Mezze with Urfa and Aleppo Chilis
This was my favorite mezze from Oleana in Cambridge, MA the first time I visited, and to say the least I’ve been back a few times. Reason being? This is perhaps the perfect accompaniment for some delicious and soft foccacia or other warm bread. There are lots of feta dip recipes out there, but this [...]
Momofuku Noodle Bar in NYC lives up to the hype
Had the opportunity to visit the great city of New York this past weekend and make it a point to hit up Momofuku for lunch on the Sunday we were there. I’ll start by admitting that I’ve been really into the Momofuku cookbook. I haven’t yet made many recipes from it just yet besides the [...]
Braised Lamb Shanks – The Ultimate Savory Dish
I think I’m now convinced that the pressure cooker is perhaps one of the greatest inventions to the home kitchen in a long time. Especially if you’re the type of person who loves slow food: braising, slow cooking, falling of the bone, you know. Basically the pressure cooker allows you to do this sort of [...]

Simple Italian Tomato Bruschetta – The Perfect Appetizer?
Italy in summer is hot for sure, but that heat that beats down also produces some of the best vegetables known to man, most importantly the epic tomatoes, which proprietors of small restaurants around the south of the country grow in small pots outside of their kitchens. I can’t tell you how unique an experience it [...]
How to Make Fresh Pasta
This recipe is super easy – maybe because it has just 3 ingredients total, or maybe because unlike bread, you have some wiggle room when making pasta. Once you’ve done it a few times too, you can really hone your skills and nail it. This recipe is all about the proportion of eggs to flour [...]
Delicious Summer Drink or Cocktail – Mango Lemonade Recipe
Back when Aimee and I lived in the Bay Area (Alameda more specifically), we had a huge lemon tree in the back yard that used to produce huge Eureka lemons all the time. I always felt a little bad because I couldn’t ever use them all – but when I could, I always used to [...]
