Seafood Shakshuka

Most people familiar with shakshuka think of eggs as the common denominator, but here I pay tribute to shakshuka made in the style of Egypt’s Mediterranean cities, where seafood and local fish stand in for the eggs. While I do take liberties with the spices I use in this recipe, the method of braising the…


A Wholesome Grain Salad

There is something intrinsically gratifying about a hearty grain salad. Fresh and chewy, brimming with greens and chopped vegetables, it’s nutritious, versatile, and satisfying. This bulgur salad is tumbled with lemon, spices, and fresh herbs, along with chopped peppers and grated carrot for juicy sweetness and crunch. It’s spread over a bed of greens and…

How Americans Used to Eat

A colleague recently introduced me to a treasure trove of information about American eating habits in the 19th and early 20th centuries: The Buttolph Collection of Menus. Housed at the New York Public Library, the collection was a gift of Miss Frank E. Buttolph (1850-1924). The earliest menu dates from 1843, and contributions after Miss…


Beat the Weather With Spicy Tacos

The bleaker the weather, the brighter the food, I say. It’s the new year, and January can be a cold, wet, and dark second act following the holiday festivities. A perfect antidote is to create light and vibrant food to ward off the seasonal blues and balance out any celebratory excesses. These Baja-inspired tacos piled…

The recently suspended products include biscuits, candies, alcohol, and other beverages. According…


Why I Cook

You might agree when I say that life feels uncertain right now. There is a new normal replacing many assumptions and expectations we had taken for granted. Some of this is organic: We evolve, kids grow, parents age, and paradigms shift. Some of this is external: Our world as we know it changes, affecting jobs,…


America’s Seafood Industry Getting ‘Crushed’ by High Tariffs and Inflation

Fishermen are catching a lot more than seafood in their nets this year due to ongoing tariffs resulting from the U.S.-China trade war and sky-high inflation. The resultant effect has crippled the majority of America’s seafood industry by making it less competitive. Much of this is due to the amount of offshore processing done in…


Learning to Love the Shishito

It wasn’t love at first bite, but I finally warmed up to the shishito pepper. The name is an abbreviation of “shishitogarashi,” which is Japanese for “the tip of this pepper looks like a lion’s face.” This description is as fanciful as looking for faces in clouds, but you don’t need to imagine a lion…
