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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Guinness Braised Beef Short Ribs Recipe – Last Taste of Winter

This post was co-authored (really the recipe was co-cooked) by @taylorbarstow At some point during the winter, I inevitably will get a serious craving for some delicious and wholesome braised beef short ribs. With winter waning, a few of us on a ‘dudes night’ decided to do something we rarely all do together: cook. It [...]

Lamb Stew Recipe with Pearl Onions – A Soul Warming Winter Dish

Stew is food for the soul, and that is exactly what I was after with this dish.  I don’t make stew very often because it is so time consuming, and with life as hectic as it is, most of my cooking these days happens about thirty minutes before I am ready to eat.  But tonight [...]

Greek Tzatziki Recipe with Beets – A Different Idea for Using Beets

A lot of cooking for me is trying some thing that you don’t traditionally think would go together.  Such is the case here, when I opened up the fridge and found 5-6 lonely but beautiful golden beets and thanks to another great idea from Ana Sortun (chef at Oleana and author of the cookbook Spice) [...]

New England Fish Chowder Recipe – The Classic, Comforting Soup

Clam chowder is a New England dish that has made a national debut.  Even in July in San Diego, I would be willing to bet that you wouldn’t have to walk very far to find a seafood restaurant that serves clam chowder.  Granted, you might not be treated to the same charming description of why [...]
