Fried Egg-Toast in Fresh-Tomato Sauce
I often make this for a quick breakfast with a friend. You may also use an equivalent measure of grape tomatoes, halved.

Tamarind Wings
This recipe is inspired by a salsa featured in a Mexican restaurant we visit when in Los Angeles. It is sweet/tart, fruity and a little spicy. These wings are very easy (and addictive). You can wing it with a greater or lesser number of wings as the recipe as written gives you more salsa than needed.

Addictive Ume Plum Vinegar Salad Dressing
This ume plum vinegar dressing recipe is fruity, sharp, and delicious. Use the Ume vinegar sparingly; a little goes a long way for a highly addictive sauce!

"Moroccan Guacamole" Toasts with Fried Egg
What's not to like about a fried egg and "Moroccan guacamole" avocado toast? Together, they make a pretty rich combo. Whip up this easy breakfast recipe!

Roasted Tomato-Garlic Toasts
This "recipe"--more a guideline--came about as a way to get dinner on the table without fuss, and is an example of my exploration of roasting any and every kind of vegetable. The sweet flavor of best-quality late-summer tomatoes is concentrated and enriched by putting in a fairly hot oven and keeping it there till nicely browned. You can vary the quantities as you like. Not much more to be said--it's yummy, addictive and very popular around here.

Wine-Poached Pears Baked in Custard Cream
I wanted a simple homey dish of pears baked in cream. I flipped through Martha Stewart's Pies and Tarts: a pear tart provided the basis for the poaching liquid. I had an open bottle of wine to use up. There wasn't nearly enough in there--is there ever?-- so I opened a second bottle of same. This in itself was cause for celebration, so I raised a glass and sampled some. Immediately things fell into place--oops! I forged tipsily ahead. For the cream sauce I referred to a new book on my shelf, Gâteaux from the Fait Maison series for a sort of crème Anglais, sans eggs. Here is the happy result. Let me know how you like it!

Sossie Beile's Little Cherry Crumb Bars
Heavenly! That's the first thing that comes to mind when you try this Recipe With Cherry Preserves. Light & not very sweet, perfect with a cup of afternoon tea.
The WFP: Greek Mahogany Potatoes
The idea for this recipe comes from Avgolimono soup. Some recipes are more about guidelines than about measurements. This is one of those recipes.
