I first wrote about mussels a few months here and it was the first time I had ever made mussels. Since then I have made that recipe a few times and it continues to be delicious.
Mussels are something that I make when I have the apartment to myself. My […]
Now that fall has really set in it is officially soup weather. I LOVE soup weather. Problem is, I also love summer. Le sigh. I feel like corn chowder solidly bridges that gap. I mean corn to me screams summer. Local corn starts showing up in the markets around the same […]
For whatever reason, sometimes I’ll make dinner and forget to take a photo which means no post. Or sometimes I’ll take a photo and it’s hideous, which means no post. OR sometimes I’ll take a decent photo, get lazy and not post. I’m not sure what happened the last time I […]
It’s funny how we all go through phases of what we crave and eat regularly. While I do make a lot of new dishes each week there are certain recipes that find there way onto my plate somewhat regularly. Oddly enough, this Spicy Szechuan Bean Curd always ends up in […]

On a good day I can be a bit obsessed with food magazines. I’ve been reading them for years but my obsession really kicked into gear when I moved to NYC for school and subscriptions became SO CHEAP. If you try to subscribe for most magazines from Canada prices are about […]
Alas! The Charcutepalooza challenge I’ve been waiting for: Sausage-making.
When I first set out to do Charcutepalooza one of the things I was most looking forward to doing was making sausage. Making sausage just seemed so… hardcore. I mean you need a grinder, a sausage stuffer, all kinds of meat […]
My quest to “make things with chorizo” continues. The most recent Charcutepalooza Challenge was all about making sausage meat and I went the chorizo route. As mentioned in that post, I made chorizo tacos but of course have another pound or two of chorizo to use up so I’ve been […]
