Trout Roe on Buttered Toast with Lemony Herbs

Trout Roe on Buttered Toast with Lemony Herbs

To me, trout roe is like a more flavorful, prettier caviar.

Spicy Marinated Anchovies with Potato Chips

Spicy Marinated Anchovies with Potato Chips

Kettle or Cape Cod potato chips are both stellar national brands, but I’d never kick a Ruffles or Lay's out of bed, either.

Creamy Sesame Turmeric Dip

Creamy Sesame Turmeric Dip

My favorite thing to eat it with is a box of Ak-Mak crackers, but anything you like to dip, please dip away.

Garlicky Beet Dip with Walnuts

Garlicky Beet Dip with Walnuts

I can give you a head start and tell you that roasted carrots, sweet potatoes, and eggplant are all winners here.

Brown Butter–Buttermilk Cake

Brown Butter–Buttermilk Cake

Brown butter and all the bits (the dark brown caramelized parts at the bottom of the pot) get swirled into a thick buttermilk batter and then iced with even more brown-butter business.

Blueberry Cake with Almond and Cinnamon

Blueberry Cake with Almond and Cinnamon

Use whatever you can find, because even an okay blueberry, when baked, is a pretty spectacular blueberry.

Lemon Shaker Tart

Lemon Shaker Tart

I’d never go so far as to say I have a specialty, but I will say that this lemon tart is my favorite dessert in the world to make, bake, and eat.

Pistachio-Plum Crisp

Pistachio-Plum Crisp

Use cinnamon in place of the cardamom. Go ahead, make this your own. Be free—express yourself!

Rhubarb-Almond Galette

Rhubarb-Almond Galette

When baked in a galette, rhubarb maintain their lovely shape, showing off that vibrant pink color for all to admire, no longer hiding behind seedy raspberries or just-in-season strawberries.

Everyone’s Favorite Celebration Cake

Everyone’s Favorite Celebration Cake

It’s a holiday cake, a baby shower cake, a wedding cake, and a just-because cake.

Caramelized Honey with Figs and Ice Cream

Caramelized Honey with Figs and Ice Cream

Caramelized honey is like taking regular honey up to eleven. It’s Honey, Part 2. It’s “Honey, Now with 90 Percent More Honey.”

Honey-Yogurt Pound Cake with Raspberries

Honey-Yogurt Pound Cake with Raspberries

When traveling, the type of dessert must be thoroughly considered, and I can tell you that this cake was born to travel.

From the book that gave you Anchovy Butter Chicken and The Cookies. Published in 2017! Were we ever so young?

From the book that gave you Slow Roasted Chicken with Tomatoes and Brown Buttered Salmon with Red Onion, Capers and Dill, it’s Nothing Fancy. Published in 2019! Imagine!

Something from Nothing

From the book that gave you Blueberry Cornmeal Tart and Old Fashioned Strawberry Cake. Published in 2023, this is the third book in the collection. Mostly desserts, yes, but also some baking that is quite savory (Tomato Tart with Crispy Capers and Garlic, savory scones, etc).
