Blueberry and Peach Prosecco Soup

They are sweet, delicious, and full of antioxidants. And there’s no dessert that I love more than a berry and fruit salad, such as this Blueberry and Peach Prosecco “Soup.” It’s a seasonal favorite at our restaurant Del Posto in New York City.

Spicy Wok Clams and Leeks By Ming Tsai
When I come across a flavor I really love, I like to spread it around, and the best way to spread the great flavor of Indonesia’s spicy sambal is with crème fraiche.

Homemade Granola
By Annie Copps
Monday through Friday, I eat breakfast on the go—usually a cup of coffee and a bowl of yogurt with granola. Store bought granola can have some hidden ingredients, too much salt, and sugar as well as extra calories that may not be the best way for you to start the day.
Cooking
The Daily Drink: Homemade Granola
Sure, you think of granola as a breakfast food and breakfast, to most people, means coffee. Nothing wrong with that pairing!

Wake up and smell your herbs! Fresh herbs are simply wonderful. The use of fresh herbs has exploded in the American kitchen today. I recall that as a young apprentice in Italy at my aunt’s apron strings, for every herb we had in the garden, there was a pot on the stove to match.
