GRILLING FROM FOOD FOR THOUGHT WITH CLAIRE THOMAS

I love the smell of smoke: fireplaces, barbecues, dragons, anything that produces smoke gets my immediate attention and an obvious comment.  “Smells like winter,” or “Smells like summer,” or “Smells like slaying season.”  And as much as I love eating things cooked over an open flame, I do very little cooking over an open flame myself.  It’s such a dad […]

A CLASSIC CAESAR SALAD GRILLED // VIDEO

SUMMER SALAD

Summer is just the best. Such a boring thing to say, I know, but isn’t it though? So in a fit of experimental laziness, I combined my favorite things about summer (stone fruit, heirloom tomatoes, and fresh herbs) in a bowl and called it a day.  The result? sweet, earthy, tart goodness. The tomatoes have enough sweetness to not get […]
