Pesto Pizza Crostini
Admittedly a bit plebian, this creation was borne from a long-ago 1980s (!) evening that featured too many cocktails...followed by the return home to an almost-empty fridge. Comfort food: salty, creamy, savory, crunchy. No regrets the next morning.
Green and Red Endive Boats
Last year was my first Christmas away from home. At the time, my boyfriend was still living in France, while I was in graduate school in New York--not an ideal situation, let me tell you. Since he had visited me here over the summer, I was making the trek there for the holidays. We spent a week with his family in La Rochelle, a sea-side town famed for its oysters. Christmas day dawned bright and cold and with picnic baskets in tow, the whole family walked the short distance to the beach. Out came Champagne, boudin blanc and chevre and lardon toasts. There were also slivers of crisp endive, which my boyfriend's mother (an excellent cook) had topped with creamy Roquefort. I thought the slightly bitter endive made great vessels for party food, and when I got home, I started playing around with my own ideas. A week later, my boyfriend got word that he would be transfered to New York. We will return to France together for Christmas this year, where I hope to come home with at least one new recipe!
Honey & Goat Cheese Stuffed Grapes
I love goat cheese and I love grapes, so a few years ago I decided to combine them in a fun and tasty way to make an appetizer. They are now "expected" especially by my girlfriends at most get togethers. They take a little work up front byt they can be made ahead of time and they just explode with flavor! Enjoy!!

Thyme Roasted Carrots with Goat Cheese
Tangy goat cheese and lemony thyme pair perfectly with the caramelized carrots.
Tomato and Feta Salad
No oil, dressing, vinegar, or salt. Requiring only three ingredients, this refreshing tomato salad is deliciously simple and great in the summer. Use two medium basil leaves and one rounded tablespoon of feta per tomato. Although room-temperature tomatoes provide more flavor, a more refreshing salad can be made by chilling the final salad for a half hour before serving.

Quick and Easy Naan Pizza
This brainstorm came together as my husband and I drove home one night not quite knowing what we were going to do for dinner. We were tossing around ideas to replace bacon for a BLT (we recently became pescetarians) and it evolved into a sort of fresh pizza based on what was cheap, available and in the fridge at home. Easy on the clock and the budged, with a big helping of yummy. -corkage
Grilled Cheese with Asparagus
Grilled cheese is never ordinary. Even if it is a hamburger bun turned inside out and grilled with white American cheese it can be the right thing at the right time. It is damn near the perfect foil for all kinds of flavors and it is just waiting for the imagination to take it for a magic culinary ride. There are no rules just things you might want to consider. Country style loaves are great but often when grilled they want to cut the top of your mouth, or at the very least act as sand paper on bare skin, the option is a potato country loaf which is going to be tender and grill up nicely. The idea of using anything other than butter is somewhat appalling but you could see olive oil as an agreeable option on the right occasion, even rendered animal fat could be a good choice. Pan choice of course is important and cast iron always works well as does medium heat. Medium heat takes longer but it will in most cases assure melty gooey cheese and a good brown crust with a good crunch.

Homemade Mascarpone
Every time I make this, I'm surprised at how much better it tastes than store bought domestic mascarpone. When sourcing your heavy cream for this recipe, do try to stay away from ultra pasteurized cream. I have found that it inhibits the thickening. Adapted from my Lemon Posset recipe.
Goat Milk Ricotta Cheese
Making your own ricotta cheese is ridiculously simple. In this recipe, switched it up by using fresh goat milk, which you can get in most grocery stores now.
Almost Unadorned Ricotta
I don't want to sound flip with this recipe, but reeeeally good ricotta should shine. To fancy up the presentation you could grate the tiniest bit of Meyer lemon zest over top just for show.

Burnt Caramel Pudding
So far, one of the best parts about living in Boston is my proximity to Toscanini’s burnt caramel ice cream. I’m not even that into ice cream but this flavor, with its slight bitter edge to cut the richness, is crack-like. I attempted to capture it in a pudding, and after incinerating a lot of sugar, I think I finally got it.
