Do you ever gaze across the produce in the grocery store or the farmer's market and wonder how you'd prepare something new? Look no further. Here's a beginner's guide to proper preparation times.

I developed this recipe specifically for those times when I'm dining solo. It's not that it can't be expanded to feed two or more, but I like the fact that it is my special, alone-time treat. It is truly one of my favorite meals: good, basic, hearty eating that fills me up and makes me ready for whatever life is throwing my way. It's suitable for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I am very happy to share it with you today. More
Scott renovated his kitchen entirely on his own, figuring it out as he went along. You'd never guess it from spending time in this delightfully bright space, a classic with a modern twist. He's certainly made the most of this funky layout with the use of strategically placed pantries and a keen sense of organization. Scott is also one of the most inventive cake makers I've ever met. This man's got a gift and no friend's birthday is complete without one of his outrageous confections.
Our readers have been requesting more fish recipes, and so today I thought I would revisit this extra-simple, extra-fast recipe that delivers huge flavor in a foolproof package. Fish cooks so fast; this dish is so convenient for those last-minute meals. It was one of my first "grown-up" recipes, a quick meal for busy evenings after work. I would turn to this frequently when living alone or with roommates. It never failed to please, with the pungent, aromatic flavors of cilantro, ginger, and sesame. More
People often ask me how much I cook, expecting me to say that I'm in the kitchen chopping and baking every day. But the truth is that I only cook two or three times a week. My not-so-secret secret is leftovers with a capital "L". I say make it once and eat it twice — or more! More

If you're eating solo here are a few tricks you can use to keep yourself cooking smart, healthy meals, and stay on budget too. More
Q: I bought this clay pot a while ago at a thrift store, but really have no idea what it's used for. I've searched all over the internet, but I can't find any answers. Can you shed some light on what this vessel is all about and what can I cook in it?!

From deep charcoal to dusty white, gray is a versatile option for color in the kitchen. It's a refreshing take on neutral that's slightly off the beaten path for kitchen colors and can be taken to a level of dramatic sexiness, if you so desire...

One welcome question I heard from readers for Reader Request Week was, "More on pressure cookers please!" Pressure cookers are a very undervalued appliance in many American kitchens, although they are more widely used in other parts of the world. A pressure cooker can cook dried beans in under 20 minutes, a pot roast to tenderness in 45. Sounds amazing, right? Do you have a pressure cooker, and if so, what do you like to cook in it?
