Stay hungry, be smart
Sometimes the best ideas are right in front of you. In the current state of the world, we are being forced to stay inside and “self quarantine”. In MY world, however, that means “eat, cook, and eat what you cook”. Since there’s a lot of pasta in my cabinet right […]
I’ll be honest, I had a hard time coming up with the name for this one. Do people even use the word ‘stew’ anymore?? Is this 1956? I don’t know, but coming up with the right name is really the only thing that’s hard about this recipe. And the BEST […]
Sometimes, these super cute and “made-for-the-internet” things turn out pretty damn good. I always see a bunch of these around holiday time; snowman cheeseball for Christmas, pumpkin cheeseball for Halloween – it’s only fitting that we’d get one for Easter, and I’m glad it’s in the shape of a carrot, […]
I’m calling this a Cobb salad, but it’s missing the blue cheese. It should be called Cobb-ish Salad. The main thing you need to know is that it’s really good. It’s filling but without being too heavy. I also am really into this Tahini Ranch dressing. I saw it a […]
Easily one of my favorite breakfast dishes ever is Shakshuka. What is it exactly? It’s a Mediterranean baked egg dish, comprised of a hearty tomato, onion, and pepper sauce, spiced with paprika and cumin. Some folks add feta or goat cheese, then finish it off with a nice sprinkle of […]
This has got to be one of the easiest things to make, yet it somehow looks and tastes really impressive. If you love BLT sandwiches, I imagine you’ll love this dip! It incorporates all the things we love about a BLT, and dresses it up in a big bowl on […]
I have been ordering this dish for years and I still don’t think I’m saying it right. It’s a bit of a tongue twister, but it’s worth the risk of sounding stupid. Because it’s delicious. The main ingredients that make this dish, at least traditionally, are guanciale (pork cheek), tomatoes, and […]
Another year, another social media “holiday”. Though at least this is one I can get really behind. Bacon was the first thing I started blogging about almost a decade ago, and while I agree that it’s seen moments of bastardization (looking at you, Bacon Soda), I still believe it’s one […]
Hello darkness, my old friend. In this case, darkness is being played by Primal Cut. Formerly known as Prime 333, Primal Cut is the steakhouse inside Sapphire NY, the “Gentlemen’s Club”, if you will. What was I doing in there? Well, I’m a gentleman and a scholar. Obviously. In truth, […]
I’m going to miss cooking in my big and beautiful kitchen. But in the meantime, I’m going to make good use of it while I still have it over the next few days… Whilst cleaning out my fridge and cupboards, I decided to challenge myself to cook as much shit […]
