Classic Cookbooks: Elizabeth David's Ratatouille

I've never seen coriander seeds in ratatouille before - sounds delicious. I think part of David's appeal was precisely because the food she wrote about and the way she wrote about it was so entirely different from everything else in England at the time (and for many years to come). It's far from the Jamie Oliver/Nigella Lawson school, but I can sometimes see in their approach the winking of David's influence.

Sack Lunch: Turkey and Coleslaw Sandwich

I've never heard of coleslaw on a deli sandwich before, but it sounds genius! I can't wait to try it. I never know what to order in a deli because the usual stuff looks scary, but this sounds so good.

Photo of the Day: Smurf Gelato

That used to be my favorite ice cream when I was a little kid - up until age five or six, I think. Urbino, the town near where I spent my summers, had one ice cream parlor back then and this was the only "manufactured" flavor they had. Heaven.

Eating for Two: Swiss Chard with Tomatoes and Chickpeas

Another amazing sounding recipe from that book. (And just perfect, too, because I have a pile of farro leftover from last night in the fridge.) Are you subtly telling me I need to add it to my collection? :)

Essentials: Fish Tacos

I love this book's version of fish tacos - I made them last summer and Ben hasn't stopped requesting them since. (I used tilapia, but since I don't own a nonstick skillet, there were some stickage issues with my stainless steel pan...)
