When am I going to finally go to Thailand and eat their delicious food? It is one of my favorite cuisines. Suffice it to say I am definitely not going any time soon since I am in full book mode right now! I don't think I've mentioned in the last 5 minutes that my book is coming out on June 13th. ...
Deconstructed Salmon Sushi Bowls Recipe
Yippee! It's Copper River salmon season! I love, love, love wild salmon, but the best of the bunch is Copper River, which is available for a very short time May through June. It's the most silky, rich salmon ever. It's also the most expensive, but worth it, in my opinion. In honor of the season, ...
Roasted Fish with Chermoula Recipe
Happy St. Patrick's Day! I am hoping you made something naturally green this morning, like these Green Muffins or Green Pancakes, and rejected green-dyed bagels.

Mediterranean Fish in Parchment recipe
You see that beautiful piece of fish down there? That is my idea of a perfect dinner -- simple, healthy, light, delicious, seasonal, easy-to-make. If my family didn't thrive on an ever-changing dinner menu, I would love to eat this twice a week with a fresh salad and a glass of rosé. ...
wild salmon patties recipe (gluten-free and paleo)
Happy new year! I’m just curious, are you on a cleanse? Which one? There are soooo many, I’m not sure if you’ve noticed. I have noticed, because I live in LA and I teach cooking classes all the time and once I resume teaching tomorrow, I’m going to hear all about what cleanses my students are ...
