The history of London markets stretches back to Roman times, and today the city still boasts a thriving street shopping culture, with markets devoted to food, flowers, clothing, antiques, and more. In...
Can you tell that we're wild about radishes right now? They're such a refreshing vegetable in the springtime, with their pleasant crunch and gorgeous color, creamy inside and scarlet outside. We threw...
The market on West 96th Street (between Columbus and Amsterdam) dwindles down to a sliver of itself in the winter, but it's back—with radishes, asparagus, and now strawberries. There was even live m...
Radishes are one of our favorite bright spring vegetables. Last year, we almost overdosed on radishes with butter and sea salt (so good), so we started thinking of another option for snacking. The cre...
Strawberry season is starting! We're just trying to get in as many strawberries as we can while they're here, and so we'll be adding them to just about everything. This scone recipe is a riff on one o...
I've been cooking for ten all this week as the full-time staff of Apartment Therapy gathers for a retreat. Some of you are getting ready for your final project of the Kitchen Cure: Hosting a Dinner Pa...
'Tis the season for these delicacies. Blue crabs are starting to outgrow their shells and wriggle right out of them, making themselves vulnerable to being eaten whole (preferably fried, on a sandwi...
It's hard to believe, but stone fruit season is already upon us. First there were the cherries, and now we're being treated to early apricots, plums, and apriums....
Happy Monday, and happy spring! We are curious: has your local farmers' market opened yet? ...
We've been so eager to enjoy the nice weather outside that we just pulled a few chairs onto our porch and called it good. The other day we were looking around and realized that our backyard space coul...
A hybrid between broccoli and Chinese broccoli (or kai lan), broccolini is a leafy green with hearty and complex flavor. From the slender stalk to the flower, the entire vegetable is edible. ...
Inspired by the many comments about sparkling rosé wines that followed my post last week on rosé wines, I felt it only right to give sparkling rosé its day out and deserved spotlight. Almost every ...
Take a look at these mouthwatering club sandwiches from Daniel Boulud's Florida restaurant. A club sandwich isn't usually the first thing we think to make or order off a menu, but a well-made sandwich...
Weird but wonderful, the morel mushroom makes its appearance for a very short season each year in mid-Spring. This incredibly tasty member of the mushroom family is all but impossible to propagate, so...
This week in the Kitchen Cure we're talking about menu planning. Yesterday I promised I'd give some suggestions for seasonal menus from around the country. Leave us your suggestions in the comments,...
This salad doesn't look like it has much going on except greens, but I promise that there are little radishes and seeds hiding under the leaves — and their crunch is such a treat!...
We know that some of you don't drink alcohol, and even if you do, sometimes it's good to have a non-alcoholic drink for dinners and parties. Like a baby shower, for instance. Here's a current spring f...
Garlic is such a staple in our kitchens that we sometimes take it for granted. In spring, however, with the Hollywood farmers' market full of young, green garlic at every turn, we pause to acknowledge...
It's rhubarb season and no doubt everyone is making pie! But there's many other things you can do with rhubarb: relishes and chutneys and compotes, sauces both sweet and savory, ice cream and sorbet...
We find that spinach salad can be a polarizing dish. There are people who love them and those who only want their spinach sautéed or sandwiched between an English muffin and a poached egg. We t...
This is the first in our new series of guest posts from fellow bloggers and cooks. This first guest post comes from Leela Cyd. Welcome Leela! There is a certain, ahem, restaurant that resides in mall...
Elana is looking for some help with a Mother's Day menu. Here are her criteria: I need a good Mother's Day Menu. I am having my mother and father and my mother-in-law and father-in-law over for dinner...
The warm days of spring have finally arrived, and all the wines stores have received their deliveries of rosé wines. As I mentioned in my rosé wine post last year, I simply adore rosé w...
In the past couple of weeks we've offered a few ideas for eating artichokes while they're in season. Faith showed us how to cook them in the slow cooker, and we gave you three ways to stuff them, w...
Have you ever tasted a new ingredient and wondered how you ever lived without it? This is how I felt after my first encounter with arugula blossoms at the Echo Park farmer's market last week. At first...
