Friends, good morning from Vermont ☀️☀️☀️ I am here for a mini family reunion, our Greek Easter postponed from April, when nobody's schedules would align. Yesterday, my cousin made spanakopita, we grilled lamb chops, and the kids dyed eggs for the Tsougrisma, the post-dinner egg-cracking game. My cousin's husband Ian — yes Ian!* — won and has been granted good luck and prosperity for the year. I've been watching World Cup games all day long and hanging with Homer: This week, I had planned to share an updated version of a very old recipe on the blog: Nigella Lawson's Cheater's Danish Pastry/Croissant Dough. I used the recipe recently to make croissants, and I had forgotten how easy the dough comes together and what beautiful results it yields: More soon! Below, I've shared a few ideas should you be cooking for Father's Day. I hope you've all had a wonderful weekend, and I am wishing all the dads out there a Happy Father's Day 👋 *We are My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Review of the Week

Friends, hello! Greetings from Queens via Denver, where I am/was for soccer, with various children. Culinary highlights have included First Watch avocado toast and salads (in Denver) and Matsunori hand rolls (in Queens). I love these trips for the time with my children and the food explorations they offer, but — and I hate to complain — after eating every meal out for nearly a full week, I am so looking forward to being home for a Sunday night dinner in. My salt-swollen joints are looking...
Friends, hello! I'm popping into your inboxes a few days early this week to share some ideas for the July Fourth weekend ahead, starting with a very, very simple pasta salad. Last summer, I shared the "recipe": rotini + ciliegine mozzarella + cherry tomatoes + pesto. It takes no time to throw together, and everyone loves it. Last weekend, while visiting my sister for a small family reunion, she made the same salad but swapped in tortellini for the rotini. I hadn't eaten tortellini in ages,...
Friends, hello! Last week, I had mentioned I was in the process of updating a very old recipe on the blog: Nigella Lawson's Cheater's Danish Pastry/Croissant Dough. When I first discovered it, I found it revolutionary because it did not require the laborious lamination process used to make traditional croissants, yet it produced a pastry with that characteristic rich-but-light, exceptionally flaky texture. Unlike traditional recipes, this one calls for cold butter, and the dough comes...
