French onion soup is an utterly delicious thing. It is elemental in its goodness: It is made of just a few basic things (onions, broth, salt, pepper) and yet it transcends those simple building bloc...
We're visiting family in Texas this month and, thanks to CSA-style deliveries from Greenling, we have been inundated with Napa cabbage. What can one do with a head – or three – of this cri...

Have you been following David Lebovitz's truffle hunting escapades? It's fascinating! We've heard stories of truffle pigs snuffling around tree roots and the infamously chaotic markets where all the t...
We're in the throes of deep-winter eating and there are definitely some days when it's hard to find cooking inspiration in the produce section. This recipe, which was passed along by a friend, came ju...
Q: What is a good lunch to pack for a Valentine's ski trip that requires an overnight stay in a hotel beforehand? We will have a camping cooler. I want it to be tasty since its our first trip to Tahoe...

Pulled pork is definitely a summer picnic kind of dish, but lately we've been craving it like mad. And it seems we're not alone! We've spotted several pulled pork recipes in the past few weeks that we...
Last weekend, as many of you know, it was absolutely freezing here in the Northeast. I wanted to cook something that would have me over the stove for a good stretch of time. A fish stew sounded good, ...
Welcome to February! Last month we asked you what recipes were on your must-try-list, and then last week we followed up and asked you which of those made it into your kitchen after all. I got to one o...
It's the season for root vegetables, and one of my favorites is the colorful watermelon radish. Green on the outside and pink on the inside, it adds some color to my salads, is pretty to look at, and...
Rich, long-simmered stews are as satisfying to eat as they are to make. It's all about building layers of flavor and then stepping away from the stove to let the low heat gently do its magic. You don'...

We truly wrestled with whether to share this report from Sunday's Hollywood farmers' market. On the one hand, we know many of our readers (and writers) live in colder climes than California, and str...
Q: We recently received some daikon radishes in our winter CSA box. We live in an area in which Asian ingredients are hard to come by and I don't especially like them raw on salads, etc. Do you ha...
We could hardly wait to make the quinoa-avocado salad we spotted in the most recent issue of Fine Cooking. Eagle-eyed readers will note that the grain in our picture isn't exactly quinoa - craving ove...
