This tart comes from a recipe I first learned of at a baking demo that the lovely (and aptly genius) Kristen Miglore did for her beautiful book Genius Desserts back in 2018. The original recipe, by way of Karen DeMasco of ABC Kitchen fame, is for a ...

jeremy’s cheese bread (pao de queijo)
A number of Thanksgivings ago, my brother introduced us all to a new cheese bread recipe he'd found. An easy version of Brazilian pao de queijo, it was light but chewy, crisp on the outside but surprisingly stretchy within, gently cheesy and just a touch sweet. For my Chinese family, it reminded us of more of an airy, savory kind of ...
sriracha & roasted broccoli pesto
When we were considering whether to renovate, I remembered that Adrianna at A Cozy Kitchen had a great experience partnering with KitchenAid, and reached out with all fingers crossed to see if KitchenAid might be interested in collaborating here, too. Imagine my ...
buttered eggs on toast with radish & parsley
Ever since I found their story a few years ago, I've been awed by Sonja and Alex's journey to parenthood. Sonja's poignant, thoughtful words and their constant light throughout their experience have been humbling and inspiring; it gives a whole new perspective to this stage ...

So it was really and truly ...
whole wheat milk bread & little sliders
spicy salmon onigiri
I'm pretty sure you don't really need a recipe to know how to make these little snacks, which are as simple as they are delicious and are nothing more than rice and lightly dressed salmon wrapped up snug in seaweed. But I'm also convinced that there can never be enough words said about those really easy but wonderful things that are magically more ...
curry puffs
This week we've been reveling in finally getting around to all the things that had fallen by the wayside in the last month or so. B2 led the charge on some direly needed spring cleaning, from finally unpacking our bags from LA right down to dusting everything in sight and ...
