Uni with Butter on Crostini – Thin slices of baguette, brushed with olive oil and toasted until crisp are then rubbed with raw garlic. This is topped with a thin curl of butter and a healthy slab of sea urchin. To finish, a few glowing orbs of salmon roe along with a couple grains of coarse sea salt add some contrast to …

Plopping a whole chicken on top of an open can of beer and then roasting it on a grill might sound odd but once you try it you’ll be hooked!

This side dish of savoy cabbage is one I’ve been making for as long as I can remember, it’s my absolute favorite way to eat cabbage. Simple, rustic, quick and easy, but the taste is phenomenal!

I still make it her way today, but replaced with...
Need a gluten-free and dairy-free pumpkin pie? No problem. The Big T. Thanksgiving. Nothing sends shivers of trepidation up a gluten-free or dairy-free girl’s spine like the mental image of Grandma’s sage pungent white bread dressing or shimmying slabs of Aunt Ida’s pumpkin pie. It’s a butter and wheat flour gorge fest with...
This recipe can be adapted to any firm fish that you like. It goes equally as well with salmon, swordfish and a nice fillet of cod.

Place your...
