View this post on Instagram Roasted ‘bull’s blood’ beets, red d’anjou pears; ‘purple frills’ mustard leaves, fennel fronds, Korean sesame and red perilla from the garden; cambazola cheese; walnut oil and brown turkey fig shrub; @jacobsensaltco Pinot Noir salt and grains of paradise. Aka a …
Larb ped made with @maryschicken Pekin duck breasts. I smoked them over trimmings off my peach tree just long enough for the fat to render from the skin, then peeled the skin off and crisped it up on the grill (with a pan underneath to …
These photos don’t do these dishes justice, but the venison was unbelievably tender and juicy. The pilaf is staying in my permanent rotation. Had a few homies over for dinner last night, and after thinking it over for a few days, I ended up abandoning …
I had a couple of leftover bierocks from a shoot today (upcoming in @pomomagazine — stay tuned!), so tonight’s dinner was merely a matter of tossing together a nice little Rettichsalat mit Speck. This is just a bowl of matchstick-cut black radishes with @nueskes bacon, …
Revisited this winter salad for dinner, padding out the toasty kamut with a little more asparagus, black radish and radicchio (added a little more pistachio and a dash of red wine vinegar), and served with a simple seared chicken breast seasoned with za’atar and orange. …

The boy wanted Spaghetti-Os, so I fixed myself a Miyazaki-style sushi salad (krab, iceberg, kewpie) bolstered by a little omelet and cucumber-hijiki sunomono, plus a little rice (shrimp-nori furikake) and miso. It might look light, but I got all turnt on @gueropdx for lunch today …
I love fish cakes. There’s some casual thing about them, all getting sand in your shoes and an itchy sunburn on your shoulders, needing Noxzema and iced tea. Their beachiness could be as literal as the fact that cod comes from the ocean (our local chilly …
Yes, this is what I have to show for my weeks of absence. It’s all I can muster. I don’t know why I feel like I have some ‘splaining to do every time I take off for awhile, but I guess that’s just how committed …
