Posted on August 31, 2012 by scarpettakate

That, friends, is one homely mess of vegetables. I almost didn’t share the recipe with you, it being rather underwhelming in the looks department, but the flavor (oh man, that flavor!) was so worth it that it seemed a bit … Continue reading →

Roast Pork

Posted on June 8, 2012 by scarpettakate

Oh, honey. Sit down for a minute and let me tell you about this roast pork. The juicy, well-seasoned, flavorful meat. The woodsy bits of herbs and crispy, unctuous, oh-dear-Lord cracklings. (I mean, come on. Cracklings.) Your butcher will do … Continue reading →

Roasted Carrots

Posted on April 27, 2012 by scarpettakate

I have to admit, I haven’t always held carrots in the highest regard. They’re useful in starting off soup and an inoffensive addition to a crudité platter, sure, but the only stand-alone dish I could recall was the mushy coins … Continue reading →

Roasted Cauliflower

Posted on February 24, 2012 by scarpettakate

Oh, do I love my cruciferous vegetables. Who knows when that happened, exactly, since my six-year old self would shudder to think that a few decades later I’d be making googly eyes at the broccolini and freaking out over kale snacks … Continue reading →

Mustard-Rosemary Rack of Lamb

Posted on April 23, 2011 by scarpettakate

Once upon a time, I was a vegetarian (see above photo: oh, how far we’ve come). Though I didn’t miss the meat as much as you might expect, I had occasional (stabbing, ravenous) guilty-pleasure cravings. Every vegetarian misses bacon, but … Continue reading →

Toasted Chickpeas

Posted on January 29, 2011 by scarpettakate

I’ve already professed my undying love for favas and cannellini beans, and I don’t think I’ve ever met a hummus I didn’t like. But plain old garbanzos? They’re okay, I guess. A bit chalky and mushy to my taste, and … Continue reading →

Butternut Squash Soup

Posted on December 1, 2010 by scarpettakate

I don’t like to think of myself as a finicky sort of person. I have lots of opinions, of course, but at the end of the day I don’t think I’m really all that picky about most things. If I … Continue reading →

Roasted Branzino

Posted on November 27, 2010 by scarpettakate

On the weekend following Thanksgiving, a condition we might refer to as Leftovers Fatigue typically sets in. The siren song of starches and turkey sandwiches suddenly grates the ears. The idea of pecan pie makes my teeth ache and my … Continue reading →
