Cook the Book: Ad Hoc at Home

If I tell you, do you promise not to take all the seats?

Coppi's Organic in DC. Ligurian Italian cuisine, all cooked either on one gas burner or in the wood burning stove. Simple, straightforward, fantastic food.

Cook the Book: 'Tacos'

I can eat tacos any time, any where. Unfortunately, the most memorable one recently was a chicken one I had on the only snow day this winter that gave me food poisoning. :-(

Cook the Book: 'The Food You Crave'

Fava beans in the summer!

And when I am sick, like now, I make a soup with veggie broth, orzo, spinach, red pepper, diced tomato, onions, garlic, and a lot of fresh lemon juice.

Cook the Book: 'How to Pick a Peach'

Pick just one for each?!?!

Cooking will have to be fava beans... just slightly blanched then cooled.

Raw is spinach.

Cook the Book: 'Vegetable Harvest'

I have a balcony where I grow some tomatoes and basil.

I want a yard full of fava beans. Rows and rows of fava beans (did anyone else notice how scarce and expensive they were this year??).

Some other stuff would be cool too if there was any room left... I pretty much love all veggies (and the fruits that pose as veggies) so the fresher the better!
