Sweet, salty, creamy, crunchy — all the things a great appetizer should be! I love experimenting with snack-y bites to serve before dinner parties, and the two main requirements (aside from being delicious) are that they must take 5 minutes or less to make and require no more than a handful of ingredients. These caramelized […]

The Pomegranate + Pistachio Meatballs came together as a hybrid of recipes I got from my mom, from various cookbooks and blogs, and from my own experimentation.

My family is pretty understanding about my food obsessions. After all, they are the happy beneficiaries of some pretty great meals, so they don’t complain when I map our travel according to farmers’ market schedules and restaurant hours. We’ve taken some epic road trips and loved every bite along the way. This summer, I think […]

This is one of those recipes that can hardly be called a “recipe” because it’s really just assembling a few ingredients… but when it comes to appetizers, isn’t that really the best kind? When I’m racing to get dinner on the table and throw on some lipstick before guests ring the doorbell, the last thing […]
As excited as I get to see summer really coming on at the market — fat, juicy tomatoes; cool, crunchy cucumbers; glossy, purple eggplant — I also get a little panicky about what’s going out of season. The earthy, vividly-colored beets I love so much won’t be around much longer here, so I’m making the […]
