AUSHAK - AFGHAN RAVIOLI

AUSHAK - AFGHAN RAVIOLI by Linda Tay Esposito

I first tasted Aushak at the Salang Pass restaurant in Fremont, a city where a lot of Afghan immigrants have settled. Aushak is proof that Marco Polo made his way through that part of the world (I mean through the Hindu Kush, not Fremont!) enroute back from China. Aushak is traditionally made with beef - it's the Afghan version of…

This Is It Spaghetti Sauce

This Is It Spaghetti Sauce by Gabriel Denison Chandler

Everybody who cooks has a great spaghetti sauce. This is mine, after years of perfection. It's lowfat, It's vegetarian, It's deep, rich, and amazingly tasty. This is it. Oh: choose your pasta well! Artichoke, whole wheat and Italian semolina go best...spinach? Not so much.

20 MINUTE BUTTER AND ONION TOMATO SAUCE

20 MINUTE BUTTER AND ONION TOMATO SAUCE by For the Love of Italian Cooking

If you have ever made Marcella Hazan’s glorious butter and onion tomato sauce, then you know that it can take a bit of time to make (even though it is considered to be the simplest of her sauce recipes). It tastes phenomenal, but I would rather save it for a Sunday dinner. Here is a ‘weeknight version‘ that’s ready in half the time of…

Crushed Greek tomato and olive oil sauce

Crushed Greek tomato and olive oil sauce by Nicholas Huffman

Pomodoro style sauce with black olives, capers and chillies adding subtle character. Rich stewed tomato depth of flavour freshened with the addition of tomato puree or pasatta at the very end of the cooking to refine. Great with pasta, as a base for braising vegetables with the addition of a little stock or as a condiment to meat,…

Super Summer Tomato Pie

Super Summer Tomato Pie by Gretchen Wasniewski

This is my favorite late summer recipe to save those abundant end of summer tomato crops. This is super easy to make and freezes well. When I have tomatoes all over the kitchen I make a couple pies. I serve one with a green salad and sliced melon, and maybe some garlic bread. The other I chill overnight to firm it up, slice and freeze…
