The Crisper Whisperer: What's a Cucuzza?

Wow. I haven't heard that word in years. As an Italian American who grew up in NewJersey, cucuzza referred to all summer squash. One of our favorite summertime lunches was zucchini sauteed, then stewed in a tomato sauce. Delicious!

The Crisper Whisperer: How to Use Up Your Misfit Vegetables

A bountiful Greek salad is a great way to use up odds and ends. Fresh cucumbers, radishes and grape tomatoes tossed with some romaine lettuce.-Add kalamata olives and feta cheese and you have a filling lunch or supper. Sadly, I just unsubscribed to my poorly-run CSA. Besides being given pears from Argentina and oranges the first week, the recent half-head of lettuce and one baby leek pushed me over the edge!

Dinner Tonight: Roasted Italian Sausages with Grapes

I just love roasted red grapes. Tossed with olive oil and salt and roasted in a hot oven, they are great with pork chops or chicken breasts. I can taste the smooth sweetness of the grapes complementing perfectly the spiciness of the sausage. I'll definitely make this on the weekend. Thanks.

Cooking with a Friend: Cassoulet and Kale Chips

I enjoy following your posts. As a former personal chef, this is the type of cooking I did for my clients. I would cook several meals at one time for them in their homes; package them in portions for two or four; and store them in their fridge or freezer for them to eat throughout the week. Having homemade food ready to go on a work night is great for you both, and you have the bonus of spending time together. Sounds like fun.
