Is it possible to make ice cream without a maker? Definitely. Most custard based ice creams can be made without an ice cream maker if you incorporate whipped cream (fresh heavy cream, whipped… not artificial whipped cream) into the recipe. If you make this recipe the day you […]
Right now, most of the tomatoes at the market are almost inedible. But, this dish is a good way to make the most out of a bad batch of tomatoes. This soup is extremely hearty and makes a perfect meal with a slice or two of rustic bread that you’ve […] Strozzapreti & Maltagliati Both of these pasta “shapes” take more than one form. Maltagliati refers to any misshapen or badly cut pasta form. Most frequently maltagliati is made by cutting hand rolled pasta into a variety of shapes.

In my family, there are at least a dozen variations of this dish. It’s a dish that has lived on my family’s Christmas Eve (Feast of the Seven Fishes) table for longer than I’ve been on this planet. This is a version I make if I don’t have hours to […]

This vanilla porter adds a tiny hint of sweetness to the shrimp, while the crushed red pepper adds heat. A splash of sweet & spicy Tiger Sauce makes the perfect condiment. Or, a simple dip can be made with sour cream, mayo, Tiger Sauce, sriracha hot sauce, black pepper, and […]
Traditionally, blini require a yeasted dough. So, this is a buckwheat pancake with wasabi flying fish roe. This batter was so lovely to work with… gorgeous density, texture, and a nice puff when cooked. The perfect, nutty flavor makes them edible straight off the griddle (no gilding required), if you […] |
