Grape leaves are delightful, not only for stuffing but for wrapping fish or chicken, leaving you with a moist and fragrant dish. I love to serve this fish as a main course on Passover lunches, and give my family and guests a break from the rich meat dinner fare, but of course you can cut [...]

We all find ourselves, occasionally and sometimes not so occasionally, in situations that bring us apart from the comfort of our kitchens and the amenities that surround us daily: a vacation week, a business convention, a year away in college, even a week under the weather. All too often, a quick look at the room [...]

Move over Bagels and lox! Ingredients: 1 bunch thin asparagus, tough ends removed, cut in inch sections 2 heads Boston or other good quality salad [...]

Not nearly as complicated as the finished dish would suggest. My mother likes to joke that the gauze-wrapped fish looks like it just came out of the operating room, but there will be no hint of this alarming association at the table, as you will have removed all the patient’s bandages first! You might want [...]

A chowder almost always signals the presence of potatoes, and a hearty creamy-chunky texture. This one has an added appeal: a lovely pale yellow color. Make this soup only with fresh corn please, when it is tender and sweet. Did you know the cobs impart great flavor to soup? I am including a fish as [...]
