Homemade Pasta Dough
Four simple ingredients, a glass of wine by your side and a little Pavarotti in the background is all you need to make a gorgeous homemade pasta dough.
Greens and Nasturtiums
The beauty of a dish often lies in its simplicity. There is very little that needs to be done to greens gathered directly from the garden.
Classic Pasta Carbonara
This recipe, unlike my earlier Currin’s Carbonara, is the pared down traditional Carbonara and is one of the most classic Italian pasta dishes
“Eggy Toast” with Caramelized Pears
This was a weekend standard for breakfast growing up. Hard to believe, but I was well into my teens before I knew that eggy toast was really just French Toast with a funny name.
Mediterranean Cucumber, Tomato and Red Onion Salad
This vibrant mélange of sweet, crunchy, tangy and herby love from the garden is perfect for a hot summer day lunch or as a supporting side to your cold roasted chicken or grilled garlic/Dijon flank steak.

Anytime Frittata
The whole point of this dish is that you can make it anytime, with almost anything that you have hanging out in the dark recesses of your fridge or from what needs to be harvested from the garden.
Chicken Stock
Making your own stock is the best way to turn a part of the animal that often ends up in the trash—the chicken carcass—into an incredible treat.
Cozy Black Bean Chili
With an array of fun toppings, every serving is a big bowl of happy. Homemade cheesy cornbread is the ultimate complement.
Grilled Chicken with Sauce Vert
The summer table for me is the perfect canvas for the marriage of garden, grill and a light bodied, red or white wine and of course, bubbles are always welcome. This recipe of a simple grilled chicken breast served with the classic French green sauce, is perfect for an al fresco evening under the stars.
