Welcome
I cook the way my grandmother did: good ingredients, not too many of them, and a little patience. Every recipe here has been made in my own kitchen, usually more than once.

From the kitchen
A whole roast chicken with crisp skin and a bright lemon and herb butter. The Sunday dinner that makes the house smell right.
1 hr 30 min total
Shrimp, garlic, lemon, and a little chili, tossed with pasta in the same pan. Twenty minutes, one pot to wash.
25 min total
Five minutes the night before, zero minutes in the morning. Creamy, not gluey, with whatever fruit is around.
5 min total
Crisp edges, soft middles, and flaky salt on top. Brown butter does most of the work.
