In Season: Broccoli, and Cooking It Creatively

the best broccoli dish ever is roasted. cook's illustrated has a great recipe that brings out a whole new character in the vegetable.

i believe i met this dog at a san domenico truffle hunt in central park... if memory serves he did a decent job locating the white truffle!

Where Would You Throw an Impromptu, Perhaps Illegal, Dinner Party?

friends of mine threw a brunch - complete with proper silverware, wine glasses, cloth napkins and tablecloth, on the williamsburg bridge in nyc last january (it was a freak 60 degrees). everything tasted better outdoors... even when adventure dining on a bridge, civility is paramount!

Broccoli + hollandaise sauce =)

My kids now do at my mom's house what I used to do...eat broccoli with a Kraft single melted over top...

the "sexy broccoli" from the nytimes earlier this year is quite delicious as well. it's never really cooked, but the toss with vinegar seems to do the job:

glad there are more simple broccoli lovers around. I just bought some from the market and it looked greener and smelled better than ever. no more frozen broccoli, at least for a while!

I kind of only like the stalks...

But my husband kind of only likes the florets, so it works out :)

Fleet Eater--yes, you did meet Brass at the San Domenico truffle hunt in Central Park. In fact, his appearance there was written up in the NY Times account of the event. Brass has also appeared on Good Morning, America, in a segment on dogs watching the Westminster Kennel Club dog show. He has definitely had more media exposure than the average beagle.

Hm. Maybe work a take it a bit more, so she doesn't take ANYTHING without permission? I'm not sure if we could even train Bennett that well. He really likes pleasing us, but I'm sure if he had to choose between us and food, the food would win! :)

Good luck. I know how hard it can be.

Center ice at the Shark Tank in San Jose...BYOC (bring your own coat). Preferably NOT during a game (ducking from those pucks would interfere with my wine drinking).

Ponte Santa Trinita in Florence. It's one bridge down from the Ponte Vecchio and has these little triange struts over the side that you'd never know about if you weren't really looking. My roommates and I took a couple of bottles of wine out there one night this past May, the last week before we came back to the States. It's incredibly gorgeous -- you can watch the sun go down and the city slowly light up, the kayakers in the Arno River and the people walking along the bridge proper.

I miss Italy =(
