This is a terrific lunch or first course. I serve it as is, or smeared on crackers or toasts. It’s delicious, light, and has a lovely texture; sort of silky on the tongue. If you like sushi, you’ll love this mixture. Continue reading

Fennel and fish are terrific together. The sweetness that develops when you sauté fennel is a beautiful thing. And it just works so well with fish…this one is a corvina fillet. The Goddess just had to add a bit of orange zest; you know how she is. Continue reading

Is this really Sicilian? Perhaps, if The Goddess lived in a Sicilian village she would be making this dish, with many of the flavors—tomato, capers, olives, garlic, orange (there it is again!) and some fennel—that are so prevalent in Sicilian cooking. This turned out to be delicious, so she will be making this frequently. Continue reading

The recipe title is quite a mouth-full, isn’t it? We enjoyed this wonderful dish, at a dinner party in Puerto Rico, over 25 years ago. From the first bite, I was completely smitten with the flavor and the texture. It was creamy, salty, all gooey with cheese and truly delicious. It was about the best fish I had ever eaten. The hostess told me she would gladly give me the recipe. I don’t think she wanted to share the recipe, but I was bulldog-tenacious and wouldn’t give up. I begged and begged her for months, until we were down to pretty much the day before we were leaving the island, when she finally relented. Sometimes Goddess’s have to be persistent. Continue reading

The key to really good tuna, is to purchase the freshest tuna you can and then, not over-cooking them. They should be red in the very center and pink at the very least, with no more than 1/4-inch edge of doneness, less if possible. The truly wonderful part of all this is, tuna steaks can be cooked and on the table in less than 10 minutes! Continue reading

This is just yummy and a terrific weekday meal. It’s also great for a dinner party. It’s fast AND delicious; it can be a one-pan wonder. It works with any fish, but I think I like it best with a white fish, as opposed to salmon. The sauce positively sings when used with sea bass…we’re talking arias here. Continue reading
