No-Knead Bread, Version 2
My first attempt at no-knead bread was serviceable, but, as I noted at the end of the post, I felt it could be better. By the end of the week in which it sat in the fridge, the last of … Continue reading
Preserved Meyer Lemons
While I was cooking lamb tagine last week, I thought this dish could be improved with some preserved lemon, which, unfortunately, I did not have. Now that the peak of winter citrus season is drawing to a close, I figured … Continue reading
Monthy Meat-Up
Another month, another meat score. The people at Stillman’s have spoiled me for any other chickens. Now, when I “settle” for a Bell & Evans bird, it still tastes bland compared to the free-range version. The rest of the delivery … Continue reading

Maggie’s Marvelous Mardi Gras Macarons
I may be a decent cook, but I know when I’m outclassed by a great baker. When I saw Facebook photos of my friend Maggie’s baking projects – collected in an album titled “Food Porn” – I jokingly suggested that … Continue reading
No-Knead Bread, Version 1
All of the rave reviews I read about Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking assured me that I could bake high-quality bread with little effort. Since my previous bread baking attempts have resulted … Continue reading
Trotter Gear
At the other end of the meat case at H Mart where I found the oxtails was a lovely display of pig’s feet. If I’m going on a braising jag, I thought, I might as well go all the way. … Continue reading
