Yum Pumpkin Bread I have tried so many pumpkin bread recipes, mine, other people’s, and have been disappointed with the results. Pumpkin’s quiet charms can become even more hushed when mixed in with batter. Pumpkin bread can be dry. Or soggy. Or heavy. Or oily. But rarely is it pumpkiny. So one day, I took…
Mexican Chocolate Love Bites
Halloween’s come and gone. It’s never too late for treats, though, especially these sweet wonders inspired by Mexico’s Dia de la Muertos, the Day of the Dead. I wanted to share an excerpt from my forthcoming book Vegetable Love: 105 Erotic Recipes from Artichoke to Zucchini. We’ve come to think of aphrodisiacs as Viagra —…

Raspberry Coconut Fool
Everybody’s Fool The Brits are in a bit of a bind at present, but think of all they’ve given us — Shakespeare, the music that shaped my life from the Beatles and the Who to punk, Monty Python, literature from the metaphyical poets to Zadie Smith and my food heroes Jamie Oliver and Nigel Slater….
Steviva KetoseSweet Lemon Poppy Tea Cake
Happy 2019. I’ve learned two things — 1) The healthiest thing you can do for yourself is to eat more greens. 2) People don’t want to eat more greens, they want to eat sweets. Sweetness wins. It’s a win for everyone when the sweetness comes from a source that doesn’t mess with your weight or…
