Seafood Broth (with transformational powers)
This seafood broth was the opening course of the Garden of Alchemy Dinner representing the transformational power of the element of water. Guests were served a tea cup with butterfly pea blossoms and a fish fashioned out of a green chili pepper and lime leaves inside. There was a sticky Thai rice ball with seaweed and a…
Fish Braised in Tomato and Simple Homemade Thai Curry Paste
It’s time to make this dish. There are so many ripe tomatoes today, but they will be gone before we know it. Make this dish with all of the tomatoes that you have purchased in a moment of tomato hoarding, or that have arrived in your farmshare. Make this dish before your tomato stockpile starts…

Watermelon Pickles with Star Anise and Sichuan Peppercorns
I know, I’m late with this recipe. Whatever. I got behind on posting recipes because I was having an awesome summer that did not involve sitting in front of a computer. During the heat wave in August, I taught a week long cooking camp for a small group of boys (average age 8). I teach…
