Better Than a Space Heater: Lamb and Squash Tagine for a Cold Winter’s Night
Which is better: summer cooking or winter cooking? I vote winter cooking, with an emphasis on “cooking.” In the summer, you don’t need to do much: slice a peach, add some arugula, a splash of olive oil, a sprinkling of vinegar and you’ve got a salad. In the winter, that won’t cut it. You’ve really…

Too Good to Be Vegan: Squash, Chard, Chickpea, and Saffron Stew
Vegan cooking can be thankless. Just by labeling something “vegan,” you’re instantly aware of all of the things you’re not including: chicken stock, sausage, Parmesan cheese. But sometimes you encounter a recipe that’s so good, you don’t even realize that it’s vegan until after you’ve made it. That’s how it was with this easy vegan…

What Soup Are You Cooking on Repeat?
Hey food blog friends, now that I’m up and blogging again I wanted to hear from you! What soup are you making the most these days? Here’s mine: I made it for lunch last week and I made it for lunch again yesterday and it’s so good. Step one: sauté an onion or two in…

Spicy Fennel and Squash Soup with Candied Pepitas and Balsamic Pears
Garnishes are a game-changer when it comes to a pureed soup. What could pass easily as baby food, becomes something much more substantial and more interesting to eat when you add lots of little bobs and bits. I’ve noticed, when I’ve gone out to fancier meals, that pureed soups are almost always presented as a…

Mustardy Chicken Thighs with Farro, Brown Butter Squash, Kale, and Bacon
Last night I was in the weeds: it was five o’clock, we had dinner guests coming at seven, and I had eight chicken thighs, a bag of farro, two Delicata squash, kale, and some bacon. Two Google searches later — one that landed me on a Thomas Keller recipe for Farro and Black Rice with…

Seared Butternut Squash with Crispy Curried Chickpeas
Some married people cheat when their husbands go out for the evening; I eat chickpeas.Craig doesn’t like chickpeas. He’ll eat them if they’re ground into a hummus, but presented in its original form, he’d almost rather eat anything else. I, on the other hand, adore them for their versatility: you can stew them, you can…

I Roasted Some Vegetables And They Were Good
It’s so funny to think about how recipe-obsessed I was when I started cooking. I mean, seriously, if a recipe called for a teaspoon of salt, I’d practically count the granules. Now I rarely cook with a recipe and it’s hard for me to imagine following a recipe to the letter. Which is why getting…

Summertime Pasta with Squash and Corn
Looks can be deceiving. For example, the picture you see above probably looks pretty good, but not the kind of thing you’re going to e-mail to all of your friends with the subject “!!!!” and the message, “OH MY GOD WE HAVE TO MAKE THIS.” That’s a shame because, the thing is, if you could…

Kabocha Squash Risotto
Usually I have a gage in my head that lets me know how good the dinner I’m making is going to be. At some point, while prepping this Kabocha Squash Risotto (based on this one in Bon Appetit), I figured it would be pretty good but not great. Several reasons: the squash, which you pan-fry…

Roasted Squash & Fennel Soup
Dealing with expectations is a tricky endeavor for every cook, whether at home or at a four-star restaurant. Granted, the four-star chef has a harder time: diners at a four-star restaurant expect impeccable service, pristine surroundings, and food at the cutting edge of what food can be. At home, things are a little different. You…
