April Bloomfield's Asparagus with Parmesan Pudding and Prosciutto

Asparagus, eggs, and prosciutto are the unofficial holy trinity of springtime cooking. And since these three are so well matched, figuring out how to prepare them isn't much of a issue. You could grill the asparagus, wrap it in prosciutto, and top it off with a poached egg, or throw these three guys in an frittata or a quiche. But if you really want to do right by your asparagus, eggs, and prosciutto, you'll want to give April Bloomfield's Asparagus with Parmesan Pudding and Prosciutto a go. More

April Bloomfield's Deviled Eggs

It would be a tragedy to go to April Bloomfield's The Spotted Pig and not order at least one round of her exemplary Deviled Eggs. They're just too good not to try, at least once. The thing is, they're not all that far off from the basic recipe, mayo, mustard and paprika are all there, but Bloomfield's added a few tweaks that round out the flavor, giving them an eggy, tangy richness that makes them so irresistible.

Smoked Fish Hash

There's nothing wrong with a big plate of hash made with whatever smoked, brined or roasted meat you've got sitting in your fridge—but there's something special about a hash made with smoked fish. More

Scotch Eggs

In concept, scotch eggs are incredibly simple—an egg wrapped in sausage then breaded and deep-fried. But as with most truly great foods, the sum is more than its parts. Even those who are normally put off by a hard cooked egg find it hard to resist one wrapped in sausage. More

Oyakodon

This isn't the most traditional recipe for oyakodon in that I just can't resist slightly caramelizing the onions. I also use leftover chicken, the small scraggly bits of dark meat pulled off a chicken carcass are my favorites. Upgrade the water to homemade dashi or chicken stock if you're feeling fancy, but I proudly endorse powdered kombu dashi. More

Potato Chip Torta

This recipe is very simple, but flipping the torta takes a bit of practice. Don't get discouraged, take your time, and be gentle. It may take more than one time, but you'll get it eventually. Once you give this dish a try the practice wont be an issue because you'll be craving a slice every Sunday morning. More

Sunday Brunch: Hangtown Fry

Any oyster lover's search to eat more oysters in the morning will inevitably lead them to the Hangtown Fry. Traditionally this dish is more of a scramble than an omelet, but when I'm cooking an oyster in the morning already, it seems silly to not toss it in some cornmeal and then gently fry it in bacon fat.
