Wednesday, May 28, 2014

Despite the long list of things I need to write (don’t even get me started), I often end up blogging about impromptu weeknight meals inspired by fresh seasonal ingredients—or whatever’s hanging around my fridge. In this instance, I had some leftover mango salsa from last week’s crab cakes (speaking of things on the list of “need to write”) that I…

Move Over, Chicken Wings: Meet Buffalo Cauliflower

Friday, May 9, 2014

Never heard of buffalo cauliflower? Neither did I until a friend told me about a dish she had sampled in a favorite Port Washington hangout, Sullivan’s Quay. I, too, was a bit skeptical at first: how could cauliflower hold a candle to classic chicken wings? I no longer eat poultry, but back when I did I, like any American, adored…

Chinese Stir Fry with Szechuan Sauce and Soba Noodles

Monday, February 24, 2014

Recently I found myself with a hankering for Chinese food but couldn’t decide whether I wanted lo mein or stir fry. What to do, what to do…The problem was solved when I created a hybrid of the two dishes. I made a small amount of Szechuan sauce (recipe here) but then tossed the whole thing together with soba noodles in a…

Blue Cheese Dressing: Salad Indulgence, Delightful Dip

Tuesday, February 4, 2014

I ate my share of salads when I was a kid thanks to my home-cooking mom.
