Sunday Night ChickenPagesSunday Night ChickenSunday nights are usually not a popular night. The realization that the weekend went by way too quickly is upon us, and most of us have to get ready for school or work the next day. K and I like to have a nice Sunday night dinner, a mini-Thanksgiving if you will, to ease comfortably into the week. Our favorite… |

Ras el Hanout Spiced CrackersPagesRas el Hanout Spiced CrackersThe spice jar I reach for most often in the kitchen is Ras el Hanout. It is a spice blend that literally means "top of the shop” or "head of the shop", because it is the best spice mixture a merchant has to offer. Ras el Hanout usually contains 25-30 ingredients; however some blends contain up to 100… |

Balsamic Pears with Honey Black Pepper CreamPagesBalsamic Pears with Honey Black Pepper CreamEveryone who knows me knows that I love pepper…I put it on everything. People seem most surprised when I add fresh cracked pepper to fruit (sidenote—it is so good on cantaloupe).

He thought I meant a lot of asparagus so he brought home three bundles. Reminds me of the time I asked him to bring home zucchini and he bought a cucumber. Cutie :). So, having a lot of… |

LatkesEvery year my family has a Hannukah party on Saturday night. Our friends and family get together to celebrate and EAT. The star of the night is always the latkes. I am sure every Jewish family thinks their latkes are the best—but my family's really are! The key is the large amount of chopped onions we add to the potato mixture. It… |

Tomato JamI first had tomato jam at FIVE restaurant in Berkeley this summer. It was served in a dollop on top of goat cheese orzo “mac and cheese” with morel mushrooms. It added a sweet flavor that balanced perfectly with the cheese. Because I was inspired during the summer, I was able to make the jam with great seasonal tomatoes from my… |
