What is your favorite condiment? I like mayonnaise, especially when I make it myself, and I’ve never said “no” to a really good, really sour kosher dill pickle. And, you know, I do love ketchup (the Trader Joe’s organic ketchup is the winner, sorry Heinz with your cute labels but, oh dear, high fructose corn [...]
Southern vegetarian recipe
My husband loves this stuff. As for me?

How to Cook Everything Vegetarian
Have you read Mark Bittman’s cookbook, How to Cook Everything Vegetarian?
No, of course, how could you? I mean, the thing is huge. So what I do is I use it like an encyclopedia. Want some tofu ideas? Head over to the tofu section and flip. Interested in asparagus? More flipping. Mushrooms? Flip, flip.

Even more, you might be wondering why I am giving you a recipe from it. A vegetarian recipe. A vegetarian recipe from Jamie Oliver, no less!
Well, you can’t paint all cookbooks bad because of one bad recipe. Besides, [...]
Vegetarian recipe for roasted garlic and garlic bread
Bread may just be the most perfect food in the world.
And the most perfect bread is garlic bread.
The problem is, I don’t want to use all that butter (yes, it is yummy, but it is also killer fattening). The solution? Roasted garlic. I have a recipe for it. And, good news, it is crazy easy!

Recipe for a grown-up tea party
Sometimes, just sometimes, I want a little treat.
Now, I’ve been making French yogurt cakes for years. But, then, I thought, wouldn’t they make for sweet little cupcakes?
There were a few trials and errors (my earlier versions tended to be way, way too sweet). But these, I think, are perfect.
They are insanely easy to make (and, [...]
