Mango Kombucha Granita with Cardamom & Rum

mango kombucha granita

For almost two years now I have been the proud mother of a SCOBY child. The acronym stands for Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria & Yeast and it's the lil bobbing jellyfish that turns tea into kombucha with the powers of a squishy magic genie. If you're interested in growing your own SCOBY and making kombucha at home, this article from the Kitchn is quite useful. The best thing about homemade kombucha (besides how ridiculously cheap it is opposed to store-bought) is the endless combinations ... continue reading...

Easy Beer-Braised Lengua Tacos (Beef Tongue)

lengua tacos

There is nothing to be afraid of. If you like short ribs, steak, brisket -- ANYTHING that was once attached to a four-legged beastie that mooed -- then you will like lengua, or beef tongue. It's just another muscle, another piece of meat. Perhaps so often overlooked because it's unusual and tangibly looks like an anatomical animal part -- unlike the neatly packaged and labeled steaks that we are so familiar with. Just because it is different does not mean it's not good.  It was just a ... continue reading...

Lavender & Lillet Fizz

a bottle of lillet, vermouth, dried lavender, and lillet fizz cocktail

1% of the 12 people that read this will understand the reference but I laaahhhvv Miss Fisher. SO MUCH. An Australian series set in the 1920's that centers around a fearless wild lady detective. She runs around Melbourne in fancy outfits waving a pistol and solving crimes and it's absolutely as perfect as it sounds. Just...Just go watch it. And make yourself this snazzy flapper inspired summertime drink: a Lavender Lillet Fizz. Lillet (pronounced "lee-LAY") is an aperitif wine from ... continue reading...

Chicken & Rabbit Pastilla

flatlay of pastilla with sugar pistachios and herbs

Move over chicken pot pie. I still love you but your super hot and exotic Moroccan counterpart Pastilla just showed up and I need to introduce it to all my friends. This is the dinner party showstopper to end them all. Layers and layers (and layers) of buttery phyllo dough snuggle up and encase a savory filling that is oh so full of goodness. Cinnamon, garlic, red wine and cardamom mingle with a mix of rabbit and chicken until they are all in love with each other. And then it's all doused ... continue reading...

Easy Brussels & Friends Egg Nests

Oh hey there cutie -- get in mah belly. As if we needed another reason to love the holy egg and lauded sprout -- here is one in the form of little egg nests that are almost too adorable to eat.  This is an extremely simple and endlessly adaptable recipe for your everyday breakfasting needs. I might have taken them to work the next day and microwaved them (gasp!), gobbling them up on a paper plate with ketchup like the fancy lady I am. I definitely might have gotten egg and ketchup on my ... continue reading...

Rye Old Fashioned with Chamomile & Lemon

two rye fashioned cocktails with lemons

It's OK to drink on Monday because it's Monday and Mondays are gross. Half the time Tuesdays are just as wretched as a dastardly Monday. Wednesday is "humpday" and cause to celebrate. Thursday is almost Friday. Friday IS Friday(!!). Saturday is party-day. Sunday is brunch-day. Not that I condone drinking every day of the week..I work at a hospital and wouldn't recommend alcoholism as a great lifestyle. No the point is that if you see this here cocktail and want it now but it's not the ... continue reading...

Carrot Top Pesto Flatbread

Sometimes rabbit food can be a good thing. When the weather turns Springy just like a scene from Bambi all we want to do is go frolicking with our furry forest friends without a gluttonous meal weighing us down. This carrot top pesto flatbread solves that problem -- and is the perfect excuse to buy the prettiest carrot bunches that you see at farm-stands but then worry that you'll end up wasting the lovely little tops. FRET NO LONGER, PESTO SAVES ALL. This comes together ever so ... continue reading...

Dirty Shrimp & Mezcal Cocktail Sauce

ingredients for dirty shrimp cocktail

Being food-obsessed usually means you may have strong, somewhat obnoxious opinions about any and all food-related topics that you staunchly present as facts. (Which they very well may be.) A well-done steak is a waste of good meat. Don't refrigerate your tomatoes. There is no point to pre-ground pepper whatsoever. (Stick to your guns people.) One such argument that I shan't ever back down on is that pre-cooked frozen shrimp are The Worst. They are bland, they are mushy, they are evil. ... continue reading...

Grapefruit Aperol Punch

two grapefruit aperol sprtiz cocktails with rosemary sprigs

Let's keep this short and sweet. I hate mixing individual drinks. When I'm doing a dinner party I try to have most things done ahead of time. Does that happen? Not always :) Mostly because I changed my mind halfway through and decided we don't want salad today we want roasted sprouts instead. I haven't yet washed the food processor or put on makeup and I'm trying to remember exactly how many gluten-free friends are coming. My go-to cooking outfit is an XL men's black tank top that acts as a ... continue reading...

Rhubarb-Glazed Pork Belly

bowl of pork belly and farro with rhubarb glazed pork belly on the side

If I had to choose one meat to cook with for the rest of my life it would be an easy decision: PORK. Duh. That animal is chock-full of delicious bits. Ribs, chops, cheeks. It's a true nose-to-tail animal that welcomes us to fully take advantage. It has my vote on pork belly alone. Pork belly is everything. It has a texture like no other cut: half meaty morsel half melty fatty heaven. It's the mother of all bacon. Rhubarb and pork together is a lovely combination. The puckery tartness ... continue reading...
