seafood pot au feu

sardine escabeche
Sardine what now? This week’s French Fridays with Dorie recipe sent me straight to google to try to get a hint as to what the heck we were supposed to be making. Somehow escabeche has never crossed my plate before … Continue reading

fish soup
When I was a child my mother had a rather strict clean plate rule, which meant no getting up from the dining room table until everyone had cleaned their plates. I sat through many university-worthy lectures on the poor starving … Continue reading

I got a bit of a late start with the October recipes, but with this post I am catching back up with two in one week. First up, last week’s French Fridays with Dorie recipe, Monkfish and Double Carrots. Many … Continue reading

gateau basque and cod confit
This past weekend I got to know the oven in our new place a bit better. My initial observation is that the thing is teeny, tiny, but the temperature seems to be sound. Well, at least I think so. My … Continue reading
