Tuna Noodle Casserole

May 10, 2012January 15, 2013   Adam Zolkover

My post about fried rice, it seems, has gotten me thinking about weeknight food. It’s gotten me thinking about those fast, easy recipes that serve when time is at a premium, but also that more than serve: that please, that offer comfort, that turn into favorites in a peculiar way that more elaborate, once-in-a-while dishes […]

Pasta with Mushrooms and Asparagus

April 18, 2012January 15, 2013   Adam Zolkover

Fair warning: this way leads to pasta with a cream sauce. If you object to considerable quantities of dairy fat, you may want to find a different food blog to read choose a healthier recipe from the queue — like this one for kale pesto. Alternately, you may want to leave the cream and nutmeg […]

Macaroni and Cheese, with Greens

February 23, 2012January 15, 2013   Adam Zolkover

Seeing as how this is a mid-week post, you’ll forgive me if it is a little bit short. I was planning to save it for the weekend, but I looked back at my mac-and-cheese pictures, and I thought: how can I keep this to myself? How can I deprive you (dear readers!) of something this […]

Pasta with Collards and Bacon

January 26, 2012January 15, 2013   Adam Zolkover

When is he going to make another post about collards? I know, I know — that’s the question that’s been on all of your minds. You can’t resist those broad leathery leaves, dark green in both look and smell. You can’t resist that bitter taste, or that extensive history, or that big shiny 1000 on […]

The Unbelievable Nardello

August 12, 2011January 15, 2013   Adam Zolkover

Most of the content I’ve posted here so far has come in the form of recipes.  But it occurs to me that ninety percent of the cooking that I do is recipe-free.  I start with a couple of ingredients that I think would go well together, I cook them up in some predictable way, we […]

Stinging Nettle Gnocchi

July 31, 2011   Adam Zolkover

“This should be the weekend of stinging nettle,” Sarah told me.  “Find something to do with it.” Months ago, when we were planning our garden for the year, Sarah told me that she would like to get away from growing only nightshades.  For the previous two summers, it had been eggplant, and pepper, and tomatoes […]

Squash-Blossom Pasta Sauce

July 5, 2011July 28, 2011   Adam Zolkover

I’ve posted a recipe for squash-blossom pasta sauce before, but I’ve done some revising, and wanted to post it again. This came out perhaps better than any other iteration I’ve tried. I would highly recommend it, especially if you are like me and have some overly enthusiastic summer squash dominating your garden. 2 yellow squash, […]

A Tale of Two Red Sauces

October 12, 2009July 28, 2011   Adam Zolkover

For almost a year, I’ve considered writing some reflections here about tomato sauce, how to make it, and how to use it to make lots of other yummy things. I’ve dithered and delayed and thought to myself — this is too long and involved to write today. And now, after my experience eating in Greece […]
