It’s homemade ricotta that takes all of 30 minutes and each second of time is well worth the incredible flavor. You’ll never want to eat any store bought type ever again. Milk, lemon juice, salt and a cheese cloth! That’s it....yum! And not just for Italian food, spread it on dark rye bread, add a spoonful to ground turkey or bake into an almond cake. Delicious! @tablenspoon

Breakfast, lunch or dinner , this is good for anytime of the day or night.

A classic Quiche Lorraine with bacon, cheese and eggs cuddled inside a crispy, light (and buttery) puff pastry. And as a side dish, use up extra fresh vegetables in a huge crunchy salad with Sherry vinaigrette dressing. How I love this simple classic ! What’s your favourite classic easy meal? @tablenspoon

Do you watch the Great British Baking Show?

I’m not a great baker, more of a cook, but watching the Great British Baking Show inspires me to try new things. My donuts were a bit of a disaster but here I have chocolate molten cakes with a center of peanut butter that was done as a technical challenge on the show. But ALL you do is take a regular molten cake recipe and add a tablespoon of peanut butter to make it goo-out with the first bite. Yum! I also made cannoli with homemade ricotta flavored with chocolate chips. Fresh ricotta makes takes any recipe with in a whole other direction!

Is it terrible to take a family tradition and radically change it?
——
Ok maybe I’ve not ‘radically’ changed it but I think both my Italian grandmothers are looking down at me wondering what is underneath the traditional Bolognese sauce. In my attempt to still enjoy dinner without too much sacrifice I cooked spiral zucchini to replace the pasta without skimping on anything in the delicious sauce. A little less carbs during the week may just allow me to shed a few pounds...or maybe not? Regardless it is a wonderful meal and if I didn’t think tooooo hard I almost (just almost) didn’t miss the pasta. For the best bolgnese sauce see recipe on my website. @tablenspoon

Isn’t the feeling of someone making and enjoying one of your recipes the best?

My friends sent me this photo on Saturday of my recipe for chicken shwarma and a bulgur wheat, eggplant and pomegranate molasses dish that they made in @tablenspoon online for the Cornell95 cooking reunion. It was not only great to connect to former classmates but fun to make a few recipes virtually together. Though we were all slicing, chopping and mixing, we definitely managed to joke and poke fun at each other. What a great way to spend time with friends from all over the world.

Want to set up one for a reunion or team building? DM me! Better than a cooking class, no one is center of attention, you all talk and participate while maybe learning a few tricks from each other in under 1 hour 30 minutes through my tested and timed menus and recipes. @tablenspoon_cookingclub

We can’t go to Italy so why not enjoy the flavors?

Veal with fresh lemon, olive oil, butter and splash of dry white wine was an easy and delicious dinner. The veal is dredged in flour and then cooks in minutes in a sauté pan. Best of all you can cook in advance and then heat sauce and meat together before serving. Complement with a fresh salad and maybe Parmesan coated orzo or pastina. @tablenspoon

Have you missed cooking with friends?
——
I have. But now that things are slowly starting to be less restricted, we were able to have two (vaccinated) friends join us for dinner. Best of all we cooked together and reminisced about times together in NY and CT while making a Persian feast- including these cinnamon & citrus almond pastries from @sabrinaghayour.
——
Time has kind of stopped over this last year tbut you can always tell true friends when despite not seeing each other in years, you pick up right where you left off- shared wonderful memories and authentic connections create the best of friends...and what’s better making a great meal together!
——
Hope you get together with your good friends soon. @tablenspoon @tablenspoon_cookingclub

It’s been awhile but now it’s time to share such an easy and delicious meal, fish with potatoes and green beans all floating in a pesto broth. The fish can be halibut, sea bass, or cod. The homemade pesto packs flavor into each and every bite! Recipe on website. Happy cooking.
