Vegan slop-sloppy joes.
October 1st marks the first day of the eat local challenge. It’s day one and I am already chalking this years challenge up as an epic failure for me personally. Mainly the neighborhood supermarkets are slightly scary, and definitely are not even close to being on the organic bandwagon yet. [...]

A slightly higher brow approach to Wellfleet’s bastard fish.
I can still remember getting pushed out of bed by my dad before the sun was even up. We would make it from Dennis to Wellfleet before the sun eventually pushed through on those grey Cape Cod mornings. My grandfather had an old center console boat at [...]

It’s all about the sauce.
September 6th, 2008 · 7 Comments · Uncategorized
This sauce was born very quickly out of the desire to eat only what was on hand.
It turns out what was on hand was at least quality home grown ingredients. We had an abundance of tasty cherry tomatoes I used for this sauce in addition to field tomatoes and home grown oregano and basil.
Oven [...]

I made a quick deconstructed cannoli.
1 cup ricotta~1/4 cup confectioners sugar1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract1 tablespoon lemon juice1 tablespoon lemon zest for garnish
Tasted great like a lemony cannoli filling pudding, but would have [...]

Fiori di Zucca
Sometimes it pays to be late. The vendors at the Union Square Greenmarket were packing up just as I arrived. I saw these zucchini flowers being tucked away and knew I had to act fast. I lucked out, the vendor gave me her 12 remaining flowers for $2.00 which is [...]

Biker’s Bounty
August 5th, 2008 · 3 Comments · Uncategorized
Over the Williamsburg bridge and through the woods…
I mean through the boroughs.
Just thought you might like to see the bounty. It’s a nice 10 mile ride round trip by bike to the awesome Union Square Greenmarket. Unbeatable selection of freshness from upstate.
I had one casualty on the ride back, I lost [...]

蕎麦! (Ice cold summer squash & soba on a hot summers day!)
August 4th, 2008 · 3 Comments · Uncategorized
Ice ice baby…
Is the buckwheat soba noodle under appreciated because of it’s bleak brown color? Maybe it’s not as bright and lively as it’s brother Mr. Udon or as common as it’s cousin Mr. Ramen but Sir Soba does have some advantages.
I think they have a bit more flavor than other noodles with [...]

pocket change.

Let’s just say you go to see a show, it’s late, you’re hungry, you’ve got some coins flopping around in your pockets, you stop.
I don’t want to know what rogue ingredients were in this $0.63 biscuit and gravy combo.
The biscuit did taste surprisingly like a home made bisquick biscuit. The dipping gravy, oh the [...]
