Dear Constant Reader, My summer has been all about peaches. For the past several years we’ve gotten two case of peaches over the course of the summer. Most of them just get eaten, but I cook a thing or two… There’s always jam. It’s like putting summer in a jar. When the NY Times Monthly Bake column featured this Peaches & Cream Victoria Sandwich, I knew I had to make it. A gaming day at the Manor was the perfect occasion. A week later a friend’s party was a reason to make Peaches & Cream Pie.…

I dream about being the type of cook who wanders through a farmers market, gets inspired by whatever is in season, and runs home to make something simple and delicious without consulting a single recipe. The reality is that I am extremely recipe-bound. I shop with a detailed list, rarely impulse-buy, and often have meals planned weeks, sometimes months, in advance between recipe development and content planning. Ask me to freestyle a farmers market dinner and I immediately forget every…

Their new Anything Bagel is designed to disrupt the traditional seed hierarchy.For decades, the Everything Bagel reigned supreme with its predictable combination of poppy seeds, sesame seeds, garlic, onion, and coarse salt.

Eric Kim’s Oi Sobagi (stuffed cucumber kimchi) has one of my favorite headnotes in Korean American – in it he describes having to translate his mom’s onomatopoeia-based directions (like song-song-song-song, the sound of scallions being sliced) into an actual repeatable recipe. To make it, cucumbers are quickly blanched, cut into 3-inch sections, and quartered lengthwise, keeping the base intact so they hold together. Each one is then stuffed with a vibrant mixture of garlic chives, scallions,…

Aside from maps, I would say my next biggest obsession is coffee. For the last couple of months, my favourite bean, Finca La Bolsa, has been out of season and unavailable from my local roasters. I've therefore been using the opportunity to experiment with beans from different regions, different taste profiles and different processing methods.For some reason, it has only just dawned on me that there might be some coffee maps I can use to help me discover new beans to add to my coffee…
