You won’t find wafuu in sushi bars, but it’s a beloved comfort food often served in Japanese homes and as a lunch shop special.  Think of it as the Japanese equivalent of mac and cheese. An enormous sweet potato sat on my kitchen counter.  It was among the last offerings from my CSA before season…

Quinoa with Mint Pesto and Spring Greens

I’d intended to make this post about Passover and Easter, the two holidays coming up this week. Nature has had other ideas, signaling to me in my favorite kind of way. As the birds and the bees flit about collecting seeds and pollen, we too begin to enjoy more of nature in our food. Fresh…
