So, my dear gutter-minded-friends, I’m talking about tarragon and mustard! And the ultimate question—is it a sauce? Or is it a vinaigrette? Continue reading

As I may have mentioned a couple of times, The Goddess loves, loves, loves garlic. Is there such a thing as too much garlic? She thinks not. If garlic isn’t your thing, you need to stop reading right now. Go do something else and wait for the next post. But, if garlic is your thing, then read on, my friend, read on. Continue reading

There is a plethora of origin stories for Caesar salad. The most common is probably the one that suggests it originated in Mexico, in the early 1920’s, made by the Cardini brothers. Mexico…Caesar salad…’Why not try using a more Mexican flavor profile?’, The Goddess wondered…it turns out it was a pretty tasty thought to have! Continue reading

Eggs, garden tomatoes, arugula and cloaked in a light mayonnaise sauce…what could be better to start off a meal? Or for lunch, with good bread? I was reminded of this bistro favorite, in an article in The New Yorker, and I’m so very glad it nudged my memory.

It’s time to fess up. I do love ribs. The Goddess likes to gnaw on bones…it’s a thing. And she prefers her ribs to be slow-roasted in the oven, not on the grill. You knew she was unorthodox, but the ribs don’t dry out in the oven. You can control the moisture and well, they’re just better. And dry rub is the secret to great ribs. Continue reading

Since so many of us grill more over the summer, I thought I would just pass this “custom” BBQ sauce along to you. This is one of those recipes that is ever-changing.
