Golden Beet Risotto
In my first cookbook, one of the sections was family recipes, made up of some of my favorite foods from my childhood. In the time between the first cookbook and the second, something happened which really changed my family: Ayana and I got married. My …
Blue Hawaii
I am a real sucker for tiki drinks, and the Blue Hawaii is one of my favorites. It’s relatively simple as far as tiki drinks go, really only requiring one things that you aren’t likely to already have in your regular rotation, blue curacao. This orange liqueur which is, of course, vibrantly blue in color, not only gives it that delightful hue, but is actually the entire reason that this paticular cocktail exists.

Caribbean Icebox Cake
I haven’t actually decided on the final order for the sections of the cookbook, so right now we’re just going through in alphabetical order, which means that section number two is Caribbean recipes. Caribbean food is, I think, a deeply underrated collection of cuisines. The …

Panzanella
If I’m being perfectly honest, I hate making salads. Especially in the bus, with our tiny counter and tinier fridge, it is such a hassle. One little bin of greens, enough to have salad with dinner for a few days, takes up about half of …

This month’s recipe round-up has some seriously good eats in it. Chorizo sandwiches stuffed with cheese, Spanish-inspired tuna patties with a seriously amazing aioli, a flavor-packed Thai green mango salad, and a light and refreshing ginger-glazed tofu bowl featuring probably the best tofu you’ve ever eaten.
