Blueberry Ginger Scones: Simply Scrumptious

Wednesday, July 30, 2014

Anthocyanins are powerful phytonutrients (plant chemicals) found mainly in the skins and…

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…

Upscale Super Bowl Salsa Starring Roasted Tomatoes, Tomatillos, and Garlic

Thursday, January 30, 2014

When it comes to the Super Bowl, everyone loves the game-day classics, usually including such things as chili, nachos, and pizza. I’m no different, so last year I jumped on the bandwagon with a round-up of a few of my personal favorites here. But no matter what you’re serving, I’ll go out on a limb and say chips are on the…

Chili: The Comfort of Home Cooking

Wednesday, January 29, 2014

After traveling for many weeks throughout India, all I did was eat Indian food. (Obviously.) Now, while I love the spicy, flavorful dishes of the Asian subcontinent as much as anyone—adore it, really—any cuisine gets old after a month in my humble opinion. That’s probably why my own kitchen creations include dishes from all the world over, Mexican to Moroccan, to keep my taste…
