Here are a few links to most recent press about my latest book, as well as a few interviews I'm excited to share: A Cookbook That's All About the Veggies, New York Times Interview with Cathy Erway on Heritage Radio's Eat Your Words (audio) And interview with Old Tioga Farm (maybe my ...

1. Today and yesterday there was a fox, the same one, I think, and also a "he" I think, although I don't know why.

On my computer, this book lives in a file called "the vegetable book," but you'll see it on the shelf as Eating From the Ground Up: Recipes for Simple, Perfect Vegetables. The book comes out on February 27 (!), so I wanted to share a few details about that here. Between now and then, Rosie and I ...

We are now at the moment when all food is holiday food. Even on regular nights when there's still school and work, it still feels like holiday food because we light the menorah (turning off the Christmas record just long enough to fumble through the prayer), we keep the fir candle burning, we have ...

A few bits and bites today, hoping to grasp something of substance if I can. Most exciting to me, I've finally found a new way to share kitchen music. Years ago I used to post weekly mixes, but I was quietly using some possibly not so legal means to do so. In the back of my mind I've been ...

It was a running race, ...

I went to Europe for the first time in 1997. I was 18, coming off of a failed attempt at college and several months of double shifts in San Francisco restaurants trying to make enough money for a plane ticket. I carried around with me a haze of too much pot smoking, the weight of too many ...

I'm going to say right off the bat here that I've got a recipe for you. It seems I've lost some of you here and on social media with all these march photos, and if you're on the brink of going that way, that's okay--it's your choice to make, whatever your reasons. But if a recipe is what you're here ...

Every year right around this time, I write about cookbooks again. That post becomes one of so many shouting around the internet about THE BEST BOOKS FOR GIFTING, and yet, here I am again, thinking about books for gifting. But today I'm thinking about why we give cookbooks in the first place. ...
