It feels like spring today, which makes me fantasize about the yummiest salad I’ve eaten in ages. I was paging through the salon’s copy of House Beautiful a couple of weeks ago while some of my kids were having haircuts, and I stumbled upon this fresh and swoonful recipe. I made a mental note, and 24 hours later when I decided I absolutely had to make it, I had no luck finding the recipe online (it has since been uploaded). So off I went to try to track down the magazine, and luckily at my second stop, there was the lovely green cover of the March issue.

The recipe was provided by Chef Gabrielle Hamilton of…


Bagna Cauda Salad

This salad gives me a big dilemma. Honestly, I can’t decide whether it’s more pretty or more delish. (“Less filling!” “Tastes great!”) But I do know it’s one of the best recipes I’ve come across in a long time. I had seen it on Food52, Amanda Hesser’s website, over a month ago, printed it immediately and stashed it in my recipe binder. And then I promptly forgot about it. Last weekend, I was flipping through the binder for my go-to spaghetti with clams recipe, and there was the Bagna Cauda Salad, staring me in the face. Hmmm, I thought, what could be bad about adding a nice crunchy salad dish to our garlicky pasta dinner? Bagna cauda…


Quick Salt Pickles

These are the delicious accompaniment I mentioned for those spicy Korean wings. I swear, if you can make ice cubes, you can make these. And if I write any more, it will take you longer to read this than to pickle these veggies!

Radishes with Butter and Salt

Less a recipe than a blueprint, this is a simple, colorful, do-it-yourself snack to pick at with cocktails.

It’s a bit of a misnomer ““ you’re not putting butter on the radishes, you’re putting it on the baguette toasts. The crunchy, bright radishes are resting comfortably on a bed of sea salt, a few flakes of which stick to the cute, two-bite veggies as you pop ’em in your mouth. Temper the pungency with a yummy buttered baguette slice, and you’ve got a light, satisfying, pretty accompaniment to a nice glass of chardonnay.
