Momofuku Milk Bar Compost Cookies
Second dessert in a week? Not my usual, since I tend to favor savory over sweet, but I had a special reason. My 3-year old nephew Cooper spent a few days with us and Cooper loves (wuvs) a good cookie. Plus, I’ll admit, I’ve had this funky recipe on my mind since I read it…
Reaching for Spring – Asparagus & Leek Quiche
Here’s usually why I make quiche – I have no dinner plan, so I start a mildly panicked foraging in my refrigerator – a refrigerator that rarely lets me down, thank goodness – and discover a treasure of forgotten vegetables. Yes! If I score a half-eaten block of cheese in addition, I’m so jamming. And…
Part III: Molten Chocolate Cakes
OK, last post invoking my friend Andrew Zimmern’s name, I swear (thanks to AZ for letting me borrow a bit of his burnish – I might just subliminally throw his name into my blog whenever I need a little infusion of attention since people jump all over it). But seriously, I had to include a…
Part II: Andrew’s Endive & Leek Gratin
I mentioned below that part of the dinner we made for Rishia & Andrew Zimmern was an endive gratin. Several years ago, we had the Zimmerns over for dinner and I’m not sure why, but I had several heads of endive in the cooler. I also had half of a loaf of challah bread, and…
Eggs Baked with Breadcrumbs, Scallions & Cream
These are technically shirred eggs, which are eggs baked whole out of the shell. But since I don’t like the word shirred, I’m just calling these baked eggs. This recipe is based on another beauty from Marion Cunningham’s The Breakfast Book (I’ve said before that it’s a lovely book; I still mean it). I riffed…
Part I: Braised Crispy Pork with Caramelized Onion Gravy
It might be warming up outside, but I’m still in comfort-food mode, all the way. Apparently so are our friends Rishia & Andrew Zimmern, because when we decided to have dinner together last night, Andrew’s mind was on braised pork with gravy and an endive gratin (more on the gratin later). Thank goodness, since as…
Spicy Potato Tortillas
It’s now Lent, so here’s a meatless lunch or dinner tortilla to make your tastebuds sing. Golden, spicy potatoes atop a chewy corn tortilla, cooled down with creamy avocado and a drizzle of sour cream, lalalaaaaaa! These are a snap to make, and snappy to boot, not to mention pleasantly filling without being heavy. To…
Classic Lasagna
I made a pan of lasagna yesterday to take to a recovering friend. She can’t tolerate garlic for now, so I of course left it out. I left out the sausage as well, using ground pork in the sauce instead, adding a little extra ground fennel seed and dried oregano, as well as a bit…
The Easiest Biscuits This Side of Pie
I’m serious – I’ve made buttermilk biscuits a few times and while they’re not difficult, they require…buttermilk…which I don’t consistently have in my fridge. They also require cutting cold butter into flour, which again is not difficult, but is just fussy enough to prevent me from whipping them up on some random Sunday morning. Which…
Asian Chicken Soup Bowl
What? I didn’t know what to call this…sort of had the concept of hot pot in my mind, but since each person builds their own version, it’s more a bowl thing than a pot thing. Anyhow, whatever it is, it’s delicious, and fun for a crowd. As I’ve mentioned too many times before, I make…
