It’s no secret that I’m a fan of butter. I love the way it tastes. I love the way it makes other foods taste. I love the way it melts, the rich creamy texture it imparts to delectable recipes, and I love that it is REAL. If I wanted to, I could put [...]
Sweet potatoes were not my thing as I was growing up. In fact, they were not my thing until, about 12 years ago, I tasted the sweet potato fries at Docks Oyster Bar on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Docks, at that time, was located on Broadway and 91st Street – about [...]

The dog days of summer have arrived. For some, that is signified by the smell of grilling hot dogs and hamburgers. For others, it’s the sound of the ice cream truck. For me, it is the process of marinating and grilling a flank steak. There is just something about [...] One of my favorite foods , kind of a “go to” meal is a burger.

I normally wouldn’t write about the scare of the week, but, There’s pork scare mongering going on and general kookieness. Dr Mercola is usually pretty level headed about this stuff. American health officials declared a public health emergency as cases of swine flu were confirmed in the U.S. Health officials across the world fear this could [...] This is an interesting take on “Corned Beef Hash” which doesn’t look to difficult to make. Perfect leftover fix-up! Sunday breakfasts are a favorite activity around here. More like a brunch, they are usually somewhat more elaborate and filling that what we eat for breakfast during the week. Ham and potato hash is a perfect side [...] Everyone loves sweet things and with the salty ham on Easter this recipe makes a wonderful counterpoint. Make sure to use organic sweet potatoes and raw non processed sugar which can sometimes be found as turbinado sugar. It’s brown colored and tastes like brown sugar but natural with all the nutrition [...] This is the Easter recipe that’s a family tradition around here. I found it in an issue of Gourmet Magazine in the late 90′s and tried it out. A huge [...] |
