Risotto di Polpette di Salsicce al Finocchio: Playing with your Sausage… by We Are Never Full

Lobster-Tasting in Maine: A Modern-Day Horror Story

Lobster-Tasting in Maine: A Modern-Day Horror Story by We Are Never Full

Ah, Maine, with its mossy forests, its briny cliffs dotted with picturebook fishing villages, its bracing salt air, and its discount-tastic outlet malls!

Using Your Grey Matter: Veal Brains alla Milanese

Using Your Grey Matter: Veal Brains alla Milanese by We Are Never Full

Our good friend, of whom we have seen very little recently, but who persists as an unwitting gastronomic inspiration to us – Juan Camilo – struck again recently when we spied a mess of veal brains at our local butcher. [I'm not sure what the proper collective noun is for brains, but the term seems appropriate given their form, even if…

This Just In: Seasonal Eating Can be Boring by We Are Never Full

Contrary to conventional wisdom, at this time of year when the garden is in a headlong rush to produce fruits, and you can almost watch the plants as they extend their sinewy tendrils into the air like a group of octopi doing the wave, it’s sometimes hard to know what to do with it all.

Hell’s Kitchen: Hot & Smelly, Yet Delicious by We Are Never Full

Jun 17th, 2011 by Jonny & AmyIt rarely gives me any satisfaction to work so close to Penn Station, especially in the summer when the areas less salubrious residents are at their most pungent, and, dare I say, because of the heat, most crazed.
