While perusing through my pile of recent magazine recipes I came across one from Food and Wine for “Crunchy Pork Kimchi Burgers” and I thought well, this sounds weird, but oddly good at the same time. Then I went to the Northampton Tuesday Market and there was a vendor sampling...
Autumn has arrived in New England. I personally lucked out in that I went away to Maine this past weekend and saw the leaves turn, then fall, and now I’m back home (a wee bit south) and get to see it all over again. This particular season is so wonderful:...
This meal was inspired by a recipe posted on WHF for Asian Sauteed Cauliflower. I say “inspired by” because, of course, it grew into something very different. The stand-out element here is the dressing that you make for the vegetables. It’s a little salty and a little sweet, and it’s...
Here’s a recipe that would be great for your 4th of July festivities. A dry rub that you can make ahead and smother some ribs in and let them hang out in the fridge for a day or two before you slow cook them, then grill them off to perfection. ...

As always, this week I was on the lookout for fantastic new recipes to try. The twist was that they had to be both hearty (since temps this week are in the 20s) and healthy (as I’m training for a race). This one fit the bill so I gave it...
