I need to make this more often. So easy and delicious: pasta with broccolini, garlic, feta cheese, lemon zest & juice, and fresh herbs. The sauce comes together with lemon juice, a dash of white wine, some pasta water. We do a lot with pasta in this household, often with no recipe: "So, what's in the fridge?"

Yes, it's me again, playing with food: my favorite Paul Bocuse Mac & Cheese using Perciatelli pasta... and of course another gardenscape to top it off because I just can't resist bringing garden design to the kitchen table.

A ricotta-asparagus tart (I mixed some goat cheese with the ricotta, but feta is good too) with puff pastry and a little rack of lamb, medium rare, thank you very much. It doesn't take a whole lot of effort to make a nice little dinner at home. Happy Friday. Cheers!🍷

Easy sheet pan asparagus: lay asparagus in a single row on parchment paper, cut the cherry tomatoes in half and drop them in the end zone. Bake at 400 for 10-12 minutes, remove and add some mozzarella cheese, then pop back into the oven til the cheese is golden. Serve with basil chiffonade and kalamata olives.

This is my favorite holiday tart. I've made it for Thanksgiving and Christmas: Cranberry Curd with a Gingersnap Cookie Crust from Washington Post. Not too sweet and the pretty "jewels" around the edges are just like pairing earrings with a beautiful gown - the final flourish! Silver fluted plate is Annie Glass, Santa Cruz, CA.

Mise en place. Condiments to be served with lemongrass-ginger and coconut-chicken curry. One of my favorite winter meals and fun to serve to guests. Included here is a fresh coriander-mint chutney and a lemongrass-ginger paste which can be added to individual bowls according to taste.

We had family visiting this Christmas - first time in SO LONG! So I did a LOT of cooking and it was a blast. Here's our Christmas Day charcuterie nibbles shaped like a wreath.

Crespelle in Brodo (Crêpes in Broth) is another holiday tradition around here. The broth is made from a slow-cooked organic chicken, then boned. Homemade crepes are filled and rolled with grated Parmigiano Reggiano (I also add some shredded chicken) and served in a bowl of piping hot broth.

It's become a Christmas family-favorite: a French-Canadian Tourtière. Using homemade pie crust, the filling is a combination of ground veal, lamb and bison with spices: cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, and cardamom.

Are "poached soft" eggs supposed to have some clear egg whites? I'm familiar with poaching, but snotty clear (with bits of white) whites is a new thing to me.
Part of Christmas Eve dinner: an upside-down tomato tart with carmelized onions, kalamata olives and goat cheese with a puff-pastry base - it did not disappoint.

Burrata, you have my heart and soul. Now.... to tackle the rest of the Christmas Eve meal.

Christmas isn't Christmas without deviled eggs, right?

A solid comfort food dish last night, Chicken Cacciatore. I browned the chicken breasts in a cast iron pan than set them aside. Cooked up onions, green peppers, garlic and tomato sauce and added chicken back to the sauce. Simmered, partially covered for 45 minutes and served atop egg noodles.

Comfort food for tonight’s meal: meatloaf in the oven, baby potatoes steaming on the stovetop. Shortly I’ll smash them flat and then fry them. Side veg tbd, probably sautéed bell peppers since we’ve got a bunch in the fridge that need using up. Not posting a photo because while meatloaf is delicious, it is not photogenic. #WhatsForDinner #CookingMastodon #Foodiedon

Hot mulled wine, anyone? With 9 degree temps predicted for Christmas Eve, I'm thinking the outdoor bourbon tasting may need to be switched to an indoor hot mulled wine experience.
And besides... I can always throw some bourbon into the mulled wine.

Shudder! Seriously cold weather moving in now. Nothing tastes better than a beef roast in the slow cooker with mushrooms, roasted sweet potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, garlic and Yukon gold, cooking in a red wine-beef stock and passata sauce. Egg noodles on the side, of course, to soak up all that delicious gravy.
