Trout With Apple, Lemongrass Gremolata And Riesling Butter Sauce

Trout With Apple, Lemongrass Gremolata And Riesling Butter Sauce by Danielle Pallaske

"Traditionally sprinkled over veal, a classic Italian gremolata is made of lemon zest, parsley, and garlic. Chef Odessa Piper's take on it trades lemon and garlic for lemongrass and lime zest, giving the topping a lighter, more citrusy flavor that…

French Cuisine: Tartelettes Cressonieres au Chevre/Cress & Goat Cheese Tarts

French Cuisine: Tartelettes Cressonieres au Chevre/Cress & Goat Cheese Tarts by Robert-Gilles Martineau

This the perfect time of the year as cress is coming onto the markets (at least here in Shizuoka and also in Aichi)! Associated with goat cheese (perfect for cow's milk/lactose allergics), it makes for almost a complete nutritious meal in itself!

Paella a la valenciana

Paella a la valenciana by Frank Fariello

If you're like me, you may have thought that paella a la valenciana was made with a mixture of chicken and seafood and perhaps a bit of Spanish chorizo, onions, red peppers and peas for color. Well, as it turns out, the real paella a la valenciana is quite a different animal. I recently tried out a recipe that I found on…

Paella "Reina Sofia"

Paella "Reina Sofia" by Frank Fariello

Well, I suppose that it is paella week at our house. I just couldn't resist trying out another kind of paella—a vegetarian paella that I have dubbed paella «Reina Sofia», after Spain's Queen Sofia, who happens to be a vegetarian. The basic method is the same as that for paella a la valenciana, with the critical difference that…

Pasta alla norma

Pasta alla norma by Frank Fariello

This, one of my favorite summertime pastas, comes from Sicily. Along with pasta con le sarde, it is perhaps the most famous of Sicilian pasta dishes. And it is a fairly simple dish to make, the only slight complication coming from the initial preparation of the eggplant.

Fricassée de poulet à l'ancienne

Fricassée de poulet à l'ancienne by Frank Fariello

I grew up on Julia Child. Other than nonna Angelina herself, no one inspired my love affair with cooking more. While other kids were eating milk and cookies and watching cartoons, I ran home to make rice and cheese and sit down to the latest instalment of The French Chef. And I practically memorized my Mom's original 1963 edition of…

South Indian Shrimp Dish!

South Indian Shrimp Dish! by kathy gori

I've been cooking Indian food for about 20 years. I don't cook it everyday but I do cook it almost every day. As a result I'm always looking for new recipes, or new (to me) ways of doing old traditional ones. I recently discovered the joys of fast cooking with shrimp. A friend tipped me off to a frozen shrimp sale at our local…
