Chilled Cauliflower Soup with Truffle Oil

Chilled Cauliflower Soup with Truffle Oil

June 15, 2015

For a long time, I thought we would never leave Brooklyn. When Alex got a new job and we moved to the Lower Hudson Valley it all happened very fast, and I was definitely in a state of mild culture shock. I had a moment one morning in the parking lot of my new gym, when I couldn't tell which Honda ...

Vegan Stuffed Tomatoes

Vegan Stuffed Tomatoes

June 9, 2015

To say that I have a lot of cookbooks is like saying the Kardashians take a lot of selfies. My first job out of college was as an editorial assistant in the cookbook division of HarperCollins, and there were free copies everywhere. And not just the ones that we published—every day they came in the ...

Blueberry Cabbage Power Juice

Blueberry Cabbage Power Juice

June 5, 2015

Happy Friday! I hope you have a super weekend. I'm getting a much needed massage here. So fancy! It was a gift from my mother-in-law and I am very excited. Alex actually has to work on Saturday, so Owen and I are on our own. I think we're going to hit the farmers' market and then test out a recipe ...

Vegan Mocha Swirl Banana Cake

Vegan Mocha Swirl Banana Cake

May 27, 2015

For years, I wrote a column for Serious Eats called the Mixed Review. Each week, I made something from a boxed mix and assessed the results. There were cakes, muffins, donuts, brownies, cookies. The day after testing I would bring all the leftovers into work and deposit them in the office kitchen ...

Homemade Barbecue Potato Chips

Homemade Barbecue Potato Chips

May 18, 2015

Greetings from the West Coast! We made it in one piece. Highlights from the trip here included changing pull up diapers in the (tiny, turbulent) airplane bathroom, paying for Internet in desperation only to realize you can't watch Netflix (tantrum), and when Owen threw his pacifier behind him like a ...

Matcha Spinach Smoothie

I'm trying something new here, a regular feature called Links & Drinks. On as many Fridays as I can manage, I'll post a roundup of links to interesting articles, Internet finds, books, podcasts, and anything else I'm currently loving. I'll also post a drink recipe--sometimes a cocktail, ...

Whole Wheat Vegan Graham Crackers

Whole Wheat Vegan Graham Crackers

April 30, 2015

Do you guys remember that episode of Friends where Rachel gets called out for saying that her favorite movie is Dangerous Liaisons when it's really Weekend at Bernie's? That's what I'm like with baking cookbooks. When asked, I say that it's Gina DePalma's Dolce Italiano: Desserts from the Babbo ...

Whole Wheat Blueberry Apple Rhubarb Crisp

Whole Wheat Blueberry Apple Rhubarb Crisp

April 27, 2015

I don't mean to eschew responsibility, but I swear sometimes desserts just happen in our house. I wasn't planning to bake anything last Friday, but I had a pint of blueberries in the fridge along with a few leftover stalks of rhubarb, and there were some green apples in the fruit bowl… before I knew ...

Roasted Cauliflower with Romesco

Roasted Cauliflower with Romesco

April 22, 2015

The most memorable romesco I ever had was at Chez Panisse. It was in July of 2009 and Alex and I were on our way to Napa Valley for a wedding. It wasn't my first time in Northern California, but it was my first time since food had become something that mattered to me. In fact, I was hard at work on ...

Strawberry Lime Jalapeño Shandies

Strawberry Lime Jalapeño Shandies

April 17, 2015

Years ago, when I was just out of college and a newly minted New Yorker, I went home to Foxboro for the holidays. There was a Blockbuster (remember brick-and-mortar video stores?!) nearby, where my brother once worked, and where we rented all our movies. When you're 23, and live with a bunch of ...
