Beautiful Trout with Korean Chard and Momofuku Bing Bread

My Version of Ad Hoc Fried Chicken
I don’t know why I didn’t make fried chicken for the first 40 some odd years of my life. Now it’s something I have to force myself not…
Shelter in Place – Day 11 – This Dinner Brought to you by Farm Fresh to You

When It’s This Fresh, Simple is Best
I got beautiful ono from my H&H Fresh Fish CSA/CSF and it just made dinner easy. A simple salad with some grated carrot and a bit of cilantro. A dressing of lemon juice, a little orange juice, and a minced garlic clove, salt and good Stonehouse olive oil. I seared the fish with just a…
Grilled Salmon – Vietnamese Style
I made a grilled salmon recipe from the Paley’s Place cookbook a couple of months ago for a dinner party we had. The original recipe uses brown sugar, orange zest, salt, onion, garlic and basil. I took the same idea but with a Vietnamese flavor profile. In the end it was a completely different recipe…

Crab Salad with Avocado Aioli
I first made this for Christmas at our neighbor’s house. I served it on crostini that I toasted with a little olive oil. My son has been requesting it at least once a week ever since. I made it one night and put it on top of crab cakes. That was good too! Then he…

Ruby Streaks Mustard
I love the variety I get to sample from my CSA. One of my new favorites is Ruby Streaks Mustard. All I do is chop it up, and toss it with lemon, shallots, salt, and olive oil. I like serving a protein on top of it. I put the mustard down cold and put chicken,…
Where Have I Been?!
Yes, I’ve been remiss in my FoodPorn duties. I’ve still been cooking, traveling, eating amazing things but writing has not been happening. Truth is, I’ve just been overcommitted. I took on contract jobs that filled my every waking hour and some of my sleep as well (or lack thereof). So, what’s been up in my…
Spicy Soba Noodles with Mixed Fish Crudo
Yesterday was not a cheery day. I am in the middle of a self-imposed, home office, crazy rearrangement of life. The office is a disaster. I’m trying to make it less so. In the process I moved out the old air conditioning unit from the closet, sorted out the rest of the junk on that…

Granola that Rivals Blue Bottle
My husband and son both agree that Blue Bottle’s granola is the best anywhere. I don’t like granola, I’ll have to believe them. It’s become my challenge to make granola that is as good though. It’s always interesting to try to master a recipe for something I don’t like. I rely on feedback from my…
