If you haven't had quiche lately, it is time to remedy that situation. I could eat quiche for breakfast, lunch, and dinner without ever growing tired, but quiche is an especially good dish for a big Easter brunch or other spring-time gathering. You make it the day ahead, slice it just before serving, and then pass out the plates. This fool-proof recipe has yet to disappoint. More
Most people know about fava beans, but did you know the greens are also edible? Tender and succulent, they are a lovely way to enjoy fava flavor without the laborious process of preparing the beans (though that is one of our favorite spring rituals, too). More
It's been an interesting few weeks in my house, to say the least. My fiance, in an effort to get back to "fighting weight," gave up beer and refined sugar for Lent. (As for me, I gave up French fries. It's been tough. I really really like French fries.) His abstinence has been hard on the both of us: I lost my number one recipe tester and he's forced to watch me eat sweets from the sideline. More

Late winter and early spring are a tough time for me, personally. I am weary of wintertime, and while the weather softens, there isn't anything new to show for it at the market yet.

What dishes do you enjoy the most in this slow transition from winter to spring? More

What is summer cooking, to you? For me, it means keeping things as simple as possible. In the summertime, I want meals that come together in one big pot, easy to cook and easy to reheat later. I want meals that taste like the garden, fragrant with herbs and bright flavors. I want hands-off meals, so I can retire to the back porch with a cucumber gimlet while my supper cooks.
Well, this braised chicken dish fits all those requirements beautifully. More
