I have been eating this salad a lot lately. It’s the pleasing texture and flavor contrasts that are holding my attention – bitter, crunchy radicchio and tangy, soft white beans. Also, it’s very easy to make.

Love Spells in the Form of Tarts and Other Tasties
Hello! I know it’s been a while. I’ve cooked many delicious things in the last year, but have not felt inspired (or had the time) to document. Inspiration finally came recently when the brilliant and beautiful Syrie Moskowitz asked me to make the tarts and treats for an event that she her fellow Muses were…
A Luscious Autumn Fertility Cake for Sxip and Coco’s Wedding- Hazelnut Brown Butter Financier with Pomegranate Curd, White Chocolate Icing, Fresh Figs, Pomegranates and Honeycomb (Gluten-Free)
This time last year, I was developing a wedding cake recipe for my dear friends Sxip and Coco. They were married in a forest surrounded by love, golden leaves, and a brass band. It was a joyous alchemical joining of two forces of nature. I was excited to make a wedding cake that was bold,…
Jicama and Corn Slaw with Avocado
This was the very first recipe I ever posted on this blog. The name of the post was “Dinner July 31st, 2010” and also included instructions for making chipotle black beans and frying sweet plantains. I’m reposting this jicama slaw because, 8 years later, I’m still making this salad every summer. Also, the original post…
Radicchio and Burrata/ Arthur Avenue
As the weather finally gets warmer, I encourage you to find a day to visit Arthur Avenue. New York is changing fast. Before you know it everything of interest might have turned into luxury apartment buildings and chain stores. Let’s all slow that change down by giving some time and money to the neighborhoods and businesses that still make New York special. While you are there, buy the ingredients to make this dish!
Caramelized Onion and Wild Mushroom Tart with a Hazelnut Crust (Gluten-Free)
Like many of the recipes that I make up, this one is time consuming; but, I really, genuinely enjoy cooking so I’m never going to skip caramelizing the onions just because it takes so long! Anyway, this is the sort of dish you make for a special occasion, for people who you truly love. I’m…
Vegan and Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie
Here is a truly delicious vegan and gluten-free pumpkin pie recipe. The filling is seasoned to perfection and silky smooth and the crust has little bits of crystalized ginger. It’s so good. It can be enjoyed equally by those without any dietary restrictions at all. I made this pie last December when our oven…
Corn on the Cob with Romesco Sauce/ Farmshare cooking
Last week we discussed end of summer tomato hoarding. This week let’s address the great corn glut of 2017. My farmshare has sent me a lot of corn and there seems to be no end in sight. Temperatures are in the 80’s in New York right now, so it’s really still summer here. I have…
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…
Creamy Passionfruit Mango Parfait (vegan)
Oh how I adore Passionfruit. I have recently discovered a very good source for passionfruit puree, which is helping me to get over my deep and abiding regret about not eating more fresh passionfruit when I lived in Hawaii (See my post post on Regret and Coconut Passionfruit Chia Seed Pudding). It’s called Perfect Puree…
