We are back from our first (airplane) trip this side of the pandemic, and I have to say, I feel so alive. Yes, it was scary getting on a plane with so many people (all masked, and impressively respectful). Yes, it felt like a risk to take my un-vaccinated kids along. But there is no life without ris
Compiled by Yolanda Bertaud Just a small list of wild edible weeds that we may encounter in our everyday environment without ever knowing the benefits and nutrition these wonderful plants provide. …
I’ve been leaning on old habits this summer-like simple, satisfying, eggs-as-hero meals. Turkish eggs--a spicy poached egg dish over garlicky yogurt- is a recipe I first learned when I was single, living in the east village in NYC (where Turkish restaurants abound) and often cooking for one. A good
I didn’t plan that the first recipe I’d share with you in the new year would be Paliscinta, or Hungarian Pancakes—shot on my iPhone, on the fly in my kitchen, my kids swinging their legs at the breakfast nook with this week’s renovation debris just out of frame, but that’s 2021 for us so far. Very
There’s a snow-storm here today, and my Alpine dreams are being made with a big bowl of steamy, cheesy risotto. We didn’t grow up eating much rice (aside from my mom’s amazing cashew chicken dinner—never enough cashews or snow peas, but i digress…), but as an adult, my forever comfort food is a crea
This summer, we traveled to Italy on a dime (ie. cheap seats)—then ate our way through markets, grazed on thin, crackly-crusted Roman pies and piles of peaches and plums. It was bliss. Almost every meal was exceptional—-well-researched and worth the long treks across town for all the most renowned p

Few things say summer to me like fresh, juicy peaches. When it's this hot and cooking is off the table, this simple combination of peaches, burrata, and prosciutto is the perfect lunch or twilight dinner fix. You hardly need a recipe for something so simple and intuitive, but I thought I’d share how

If your pantry stash of flour is getting a good work out, as ours is, it might be time for a little detour. As exciting as warm buttered rolls, homemade sourdough and pillowy focaccia have been for the last four weeks, I woke up this morning craving something different. Polenta, or cornmeal—is my f
Years ago my friend Robert gave me a stack of two slim French baking books that are just divine—one called Caramel and the other, Chocolate. They are the kind of books with simple recipes and even simpler list of instructions, the kind where the photographs look mouthwateringly dreamy, but the r
It’s a week until the big day, and I’ve been touting ease around here all week. And I mean it— this menu (and this dessert ) are epically easy in the grand scheme of all things holiday. But you didn’t think I would leave it at that, did you? Even simple menu planning requires some knowledge, and h

Tiramisu is my dad and my husband’s favorite dessert--two of the people I love feeding most. But I didn’t make it for years, somehow recalling it from culinary school as a laborious task. How wrong I was. One night, I decided not to bring home the tempting piece hanging around in the Ita
\"Mr. Heavey takes us back to the joys--and occasional pitfalls--of the humble edibles around us, and his conclusions ring true.\"--Wall Street Journal Longtime Field & Stream contributor Bill Heavey has become the magazine's most popular voice by writing for sportsmen with more enthusiasm than skill. In his first full-length book, Heavey chronicles his attempts to \"eat wild,\" seeing how much of his own food he can hunt, fish, grow, and forage. But Heavey is not your typical hunter-gatherer. Living inside the D.C. Beltway, and a single dad to a twelve-year-old daughter with an aversion to \"nature food,\" he's almost completely ignorant of gardening and foraging. Incensed at the squirrels destroying his tomatoes, he is driven to rodent murder--by arrow. Along the way, Heavey is guided by a number of unlikely teachers, from the eccentric Paula, who runs an under-the-table bait business, to Michelle, an attractive single mom unselfconsciously devoted to eating locally. To the delight of his readers and the embarrassment of his daughter, he suffers blood loss, humiliation, and learns, as he puts it, that \"'edible' is not to be confused with 'tasty.'\"

A few weeks ago, I was invited to what I affectionately call cheese camp , a three-day immersion into the cheese culture of the Roth Cheese company, near Madison, WI, complete with cheese tasting, farm visits, and copious dairy consumption. I was born in Illinois, 30 minutes from the Wisconsin bord

When I get a chance to dip out of my own world, and into the world of another food writer I know and trust—to see how they do family dinner, to taste life at their table—it’s always a little lift.

I’ve been wanting to talk to you about porridge for a long, long time. Like many years. It wasn’t cool to talk about porridge until fairly recently, which is fine, because I never found the time anyway, but here’s the thing: Porridge—be it millet or oats or hot cereal or polenta, rice porridge or

I made soup: it’s NOT squash. This not-squash soup is my new cold weather favorite: creamy cauliflower soup topped with crispy chickpeas and radishes and per my usual, all the herbs and oil. I absolutely love squash soup. I make it at least once a week, and it’s still something I’m likely to orde
It is not a mistake that a simple, arresting radish and parmesan salad appears on the front cover of my book FEAST (which came out 5 years ago) and that a radish, kale and citrus salad is headlining my journal today--feeling as fresh and new as ever. Radish salad never goes out of style. t’s ri
If you had to choose only one cookie for the rest of your life and only that cookie, forever, which would it be? I know, that’s just plain mean. But if I absolutely had to choose, my desert island cookie would be ginger molasses. Even over my favorite chocolate chip. (Yes, shocking). I admit th
Right now, my husband and children are sound asleep in a tent 50 feet from our kitchen door, where the air is cool and crisp.

am not someone who makes pasta—or even craves it— very often. But every time I go to our favorite local grocer, I’m lured in by the pretty packages of over-the-top pasta shapes: Long, leggy noodles, big, chunky Tufoli, and lace-edged riginette or tripoline. Usually, I buy a package of some dreamy,
