  • We are full swing into renovations (!!!) and still managing to cook here and there, but the one thing I didn’t spring for was a portable burner. Currently wishing I had one to make some of this runny fried egg, ginger stir-fried lettuce goodness from @hettymckinnon’s #familythecookbook on this cool October morning. 🍳 Wishing you a cozy start to your week!
  • Reminiscing about long ago Boston date nights + a recipe for squid ink pasta aglio e olio inspired by @thedailycatch on the blog this week ✨🦑 We had this for the first time almost seven years ago—a pile of springy, inky linguine tossed in garlicky olive oil and bits of fresh squid, nestled in a skillet laced with a golden, deeply savory fond from bits of anchovy and Pecorino, it’s so good that I’d go the 3,000 miles all the way back to the North End just to have it. But, as it turns out, 30 minutes and some good squid ink pasta will make a pretty darn good version at home, too—no ✈️ necessary. Happy happy Sunday ✨
  • This feels like a special Mid-Autumn Festival with the four of us in our new house. It’s starting to feel so much like home in almost all ways, but the one thing I hadn’t done until this ☝🏼 was take any food photos! Now it really feels like home. (Even if I didn’t make the mooncakes!) And now I’m even more excited for the work that we’re going to do on the kitchen (more on that soon if you’re interested!!!!) so so soon 😱 Lots of things going on these days but in this season of family, feeling so thankful for ours. 🍂 Happy #中秋节 and #Chuseok to all my friends celebrating tomorrow! Mooncakes are from @keewahla 😋 homemade recipe in the archives! 🥮 OMG JUST DISCOVERED THIS MOONCAKE EMOJI 🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮
  • The blog got a new look last week thanks to the best ever, magical wonderful @meyne_co!!! I’ve been digging around in the sandbox of old posts enjoying how new and shiny they look. This one popped up and I’m pretty sure it’s perfect timing for the decidedly NOT fall weather we’re still having in LA. Cold udon in sesame dipping sauce (three EDIT: lol four years ago! Post-Japan honeymoon! We were babies with no babies!) in the shiny new-but-old blog archives. ✨
  • Not the end of summer yet!!!! I might not actually be making these blueberry hand pies right now (best recipe ever on @kingarthurflour ✨) but it’s the spirit of the thing, I think 🙃 Happy long summer weekend!
  • Work trip ✅ Weekend on the couch ✅ Double chocolate mochi ice cream with black sesame fudge sauce on the blog ✅✅✅ Happy Sunday, friends!! ❤️🍨
  • Where to start with this dish?! It’s from @hettymckinnon’s third beautiful plant-based book #familythecookbook, and it stars stir-fried lettuce, which is at odds with every way you might think to enjoy lettuce (unless you are Chinese 😜) but is so actually magical, the core still crunchy but edges silky, sweet from the quick cook and savory from the soy ginger sauce. It transports me back to my childhood and my mom’s kitchen so instantly. With ginger fried rice, spicy warm yet delicate, and a buttery sunny side up egg, it’s the very best quick lunch, Sunday breakfast, healing meal for an unsettled tummy, everything. I just wrote a whole novel but that’s how much I love Hetty’s recipes—as much about the memory behind the dish and the people it brings together as the food itself. Family is such a gift for our little family learning to eat more plant-based and less meat, and doing so deliciously 🌱✨ Recipe is #ontheblog this morning!
  • Channeling my best @thaliaho on what’s evidently #nationalicecreamday 🍨🍫🥳 Happy Sunday!
