If I told you this was the only lasagna recipe worth making, would you believe me? Well, let me give it a shot. Imagine dozens and dozens of whisper-thin sheets of fresh pasta brushed with the most vibrant red tomato sauce imaginable all intersecting layer after layer of warm, oozy, fresh mozzarella. Where the sauce and cheese and pasta touch the pan, particularly in the corners, everything gets crunchy and caramelized. I'll fight you for a corner piece. This isn't a lasagna path for the faint-hearted. Fresh pasta straight from the Pasta Shop A while back some of you were asking me about this recipe.

Headnotes: I used to make this from scratch. Preheat your oven to 375. Make your sauce: Place the olive oil, salt, pepper flakes, and garlic in a pan. Fill your biggest pot full of water and bring to a boil. Thin out your pasta using a pasta machine. Pre-cook the pasta: Fill a large bowl with cold water and a few glugs of olive oil. Pull it all together. Serves many. Print Recipe.

Salad

Teriyaki Chicken. I always feel like a tourist when I got to a Japanese restaurant because if bento boxes are on the menu, I’ll scan the other choices, but will invariably choose the teriyaki chicken. I know, I know. It’s the “safe” choice – but I can’t help it. I love anything grilled, especially with a salty-sweet marinade punched up with fresh ginger, then charred over a blazing-hot grill to seal it into moist, juicy meat. I may have an overload of adjectives in my food vocabulary (case in point: the last sentence of the previous paragraph) but I don’t have a grill, but shortly after I received a copy of Japanese Farm Food, I saw a grill pan on one of those ‘flash’ shopping sites in France and I snagged one. And after waiting six weeks, it finally arrived.

Funny how they don’t seem to want to send it to you with the same urgency that they want you buy it. I met Nancy Singleton Hachisu at Food Blogger Camp in Mexico a few years ago and I guess I said something to her about writing a book. Kimchi Sui Mai.

Recipage. Peanut sesame noodles. The fact that today is a startling 78 degrees with low humidity and the sun is streaming in wide ribbons through every windowed wall is leaving me as torn as I have ever been between my simultaneous urges to Take Walk! Frolic Outside! Drinks Beers on a Terrace, Somewhere! And come home late tonight with my skin smelling like summer and my forehead re-freckled and fall into a deep sleep, my legs twitching like a puppy who dreams about catching frisbees… and, you know, bake some things for tomorrow’s Seder.

Hrm, is it actually any question what will win? Nevertheless, I haven’t even told you about my Single Girl’s Dinner from Monday night. I had cold peanut sesame noodles for the first time when I was 13 and had recently decided to go vegetarian. Let’s see, if you were coming here for the first time, you’d learn that that I don’t want to do my work, I complain a lot to my husband and I’m lazy.

Peanut Sesame NoodlesAdapted from Gourmet, June 2002. Buckwheat Tabbouleh. Happy April Fools! Did you play any practical jokes on anyone yet? Please do tell. :) I must say I did something pretty cruel to Eric! I’m not the practical joke kind of person, but this year I was feeling extra devious. I whipped up a couple of super salty cookies last night (I literally dumped the salt in and made sure they were gag worthy!)

He spotted them this morning and took both the cookies and the oat square to work, naturally. At least he has a delicious oat square to wash it down? Before I turned into an evil wife at the strike of midnight, I was a good wife helping Eric measure in our backyard… What were we measuring for? We are putting in a SWIMMING POOL this spring! This is the model that we selected below after months of debate and number crunching. [Source] We are trying to decide what kind of rock display we want for the waterfall and if we want a big slide too.

What do you think? [Source] Ok, ok we aren’t really putting in a pool, but did I fool you? [source] Bahahaa. Ingredients: The Amazing Incredible Broccoli Surprise Sauce. I love the niecelets in ways I cannot put words to, but there is one thing about them that tries my soul. They are both, to varying degrees, picky eaters. So much they often refuse to try any new food item they have not tasted before. They see something new and immediately say NO. I tell them they don’t have to like it, but I do want them to try it. One bite. This past weekend I tried to convince one of them to taste a bite of waffle dipped in golden syrup. But in the battle of the picky eaters, I may be winning. If you haven’t read Laurie Colwin, you really should. Apparently, on page 60 of Home Cooking, Laurie Colwin told us the secret to getting people to like broccoli. This is what Laurie tells us to do: “Now to broccoli. I owe credit here to Ashley Rodriguez, who wrote about this recipe back in 2009 on her gorgeous site Not Without Salt.

I never made it to the salad. My first thought: Will the niecelets like this? And then to taste. Carrots, broccoli, it’s all good. How to make your own (gut-friendly!) cream cheese. This could possibly go down as one of my favourite recipe shares ever. It involves one ingredient. It’s satisfyingly wholesome and River Cottage-y to make. It produces no wastage AND results in two invaluable edibles. And it’s super superfood-y and gut-goodish. I could go on… I’m talking about homemade cream cheese. The stuff from the box is terrible.

The cheese: * spread it on biscuits and toast with a sprinkle of rock salt on top * mix in some fresh herbs and oil, or pesto, to make a dip * put a blob in an endive leaf and top with some smoked salmon or grilled sardines and chives The whey: Make sure you keep the stash of whey. . * store it in the freezer to use for fermenting your own saukerkraut and probiotics (as I say, more to come.)* add a tablespoon to your smoothie in the morning. Homemade cream cheese Pour the whole tub of yoghurt onto the centre of the cheesecloth or muslin. Bunch the ends like you’re tying a sack (remove the strainer) and hang over a bowl. Wannabe Recipea: Mmmm Sauce : Peas and Thank You. The Best Millet Recipes | Easy Healthy Recipes. Unlike quinoa, with which I had an instant love affair, millet and I had a rough first introduction. I scorched the bottom of the pan but thought the top part was salvageable.

Eager to have my first taste of this "new" grain, I sat down with a big scoop of it. Not only did it taste burned, but it was pasty and beyond bland, downright awful. I ended up feeding it to the chickens. It was a long time before I found the enthusiasm to give millet another try. I absolutely love millet now. I know now what went wrong with that first batch of millet I made - I followed the directions too literally. It's worth every minute of your time to get familiar with millet since it's one of those top-rated grains you're probably hearing a lot about these days. I'm constantly on the lookout for new and delicious millet recipes, trying a new one at least once a week. If you love potato cakes, you'll love Millet Croquettes. You can use up other leftover millet dishes this way. Millet Croquettes 2 servings. Cooling cucumber and yoghurt soup. Here are a few food rules I subscribe to: eat stuff in season, when it’s cheap, and in contrast to what’s going on with the weather.

The first two edicts are self-explanatory. The third might need some detail. I eat in a “roughly Ayurvedic” way. I’ve written about how this works here. It’s mostly about eating to what your body needs, taking into consideration your “type” or “dosha”. I’m a vatta with a fair bit of pitta in me too. And, so, today, as we (here in Australia) sweat out the last of the summer heat, a simple cooling and hydrating recipe for the pitta in us all. Cucumbers are the ultimate cooling food and are a very good source of vitamin C and caffeic acid, compounds that help the body prevent water retention, a problem that I am battling right now.

A few notes: * Avoid peeling your cuces: the skin is full of fibre and is a good source of potassium and magnesium – all of which help with the hydrating process. . * I use chicken stock that I store in ice cube trays in the freezer.

One of my more memorable meals in New Zealand took place at the Maranui Surf Life Saving Club in Wellington. Wellington sits at the base of the North Island on the expansive and picturesque Lyall Bay. On a clear day you can see the South Island and all the miles and miles of rich turquoise-colored water in between.

I've never seen water quite like it - a seductive, alluring, tease of a blue making you crave a swim. Don't kid yourself, the water is cold enough (in December) to chill the marrow in your bones. The Maranui Surf Life Saving Club sits perched on a pleasant stretch of beach in the belly of the bay. My little friend Jasper likes to collect beach glass near the boxy building where he informed me the pickings are good.

Lots of blue and green glass, and the occasional (and most coveted) heart-shaped beach glass. The waters off the southern tip of the North Island are no joke and the club has been providing surf life saving services for nearly 100 years. Preheat oven to 375. Baked Pasta Casserole Recipe.
