Gilding the Lily since 2006
Golden borscht with rye Semmelknoedel, fresh dill, marigolds and lovage blossoms. Last week our @imperfectproduce box included a golden beet so large that I could’ve hollowed it out and rented it for $75 a night on Airbnb. I also had some yellow bell peppers, white …
Split mung bean and pea soup with bacon, caramelized parsnip and leeks; topped with crème fraîche, shaved salt-cured duck egg yolk, and a pistou of Thai basil, cilantro, mint, dill, garlic chives, and Meyer lemon. The peas are split and fresh (English). Eat the season! …

Super fast manduguk for lunch, made by simmering sliced chonggak radish, tteok (rice cakes) and frozen store-bought mandu (dumplings) in homemade chicken/pork stock with a spoonful of instant dashi, a teeny bit of soy sauce, and a dribble of sesame oil. Sloppy shredded omelet “noodles” …
