I continue to dabble in the land of gluten and dairy (ie. normal people land) – no substitutions or restrictions. This week, I decided to cook up some couscous – a grain that I had never really enjoyed as a kid…but am very much enjoying as an adult – specifically after discovering it is the …
I’m sure there are advanced techniques for soup-making…French words to describe the different stages of simmering, expensive spoons and funnels and strainers. Clearly, I have no idea what these fancy methods involve – which is why I would like to share my own preferred soup-making technique: put everything into a large pot and let it simmer until …

Macaroni Grill, I’m lookin’ at you!). In fact, these days I have an Italian restaurant routine: I begin by dunking each piece …
After a week and a half of whirlwind travel through Italy and France, I’ve come to a conclusion about eating in Europe: the simplest foods – from local produce to a quick snack at the corner bodega – are the most satisfying. This is obviously a subjective observation, based only on the handful of countries …
