I hate Anisette Cookies with the fiery passion of a thousand burning suns.
Yeah, I said it. A food blogger started off her own blog post by saying "I hate these cookies." However, my husband adores them. He loves whenever I make them. #TheThingsWeDoForLove
He can't get enough of all things anisette, anise, or licorice. If you're anything like him, then YOU'RE WELCOME for this recipe.
If you don't like licorice or anise....
I’m gonna be...
Mushroom Risotto is my new make-at-home culinary obsession. (Much to my mushroom-hating husband's dismay.)
Once you make this dish, you're never going to order risotto in restaurants again. There's no need to when you can make it better at home.
Why is Mushroom Risotto the book-inspired recipe for Ghoster?
Well, this is awkward. I can't tell you why Mushroom Risotto is the book-inspired recipe for Ghoster. The inspiration for this dish...
You guys, I am SO EXCITED to be sharing one of my favorite recipes with you today: Quick Chickpea Curry! Who else loves a good hot lunch? (Did anyone else read the words "hot lunch" and have a flashback to lining up in their elementary school cafeteria? You are my people.) I'm not a fan of raw or chilly foods, so if given the choice, I prefer my lunchtime meals to be piping hot. Now that I’m working remotely on a permanent basis – which...

I can't believe I've just tried Chicken Saltimbocca for the very first time. Much like with Bara Brith, this is another moment when I can't believe I've lived this long (in Northern New Jersey, no less. With Italian genes.) without ever tasting this classic Italian dish. Why is Chicken Saltimbocca the book-inspired recipe for Sunrise by the Sea? When it came to choosing a book-inspired recipe for Sunrise by the Sea, I was spoiled...

Don't run away! I know this looks like a salad. Let me reassure you that you're looking at a big ol' honkin' plate of Loaded Turkey Nachos. That's right: there's meat under there. (That's what he said.) Why are Loaded Turkey Nachos the book-inspired recipe for Party of Two? Tartlets, you don't even know how difficult it was choosing my book-inspired recipe for Party of Two.

The Summer of Salads continues with make-ahead marvel Caprese Farro Salad.

Before I do anything else, I have to thank my blogger buddy Jill at NJFoodventure for letting me use her family recipe for this Italian Sprinkle Cookies post. Why are Italian Sprinkle Cookies the book-inspired recipe for The Supreme Macaroni Company? Like any respectable book centered around an Italian-American family, The Supreme Macaroni Company abounds with food porn. We’re talking seafood, pastries, cookies, pasta…you name it,...
Creamy Pesto Pasta is another book-inspired recipe that was in the works long before I had a book to pair with it. Creamy pesto sauce, IMHO, is so much better than regular ol' pesto sauce. My favorite local Italian restuarant makes a version that's literally had me licking the bowl after I'd wolfed down all the pasta. ' Why is Creamy Pesto Pasta the book-inspired recipe for In Five Years? I've been angling to make my own version of Creamy...
