Favorite Recipes

I've studied a wide array of regional cuisines and culinary techniques over the years and one of my favorite things to do is to combine flavor profiles and cooking techniques to create new and interesting dishes or even just new takes on some old favorites. Exploration, experimentation, and innovation are my main motivations, after all. I'll share some of them here, as I find time. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have but as with all matters of taste, your experience may vary. Still, what's life without a little adventure, eh?

Food is best when shared...

I love to cook for the harmonious blend of science and art that is its own motivation, but even more than that, I love cooking for other people. Friends, family, complete strangers who happen to come with someone else.... however they come to my table, my goal is to see them smiling before they leave. Sharing food is sharing love and, in my humble opinion, there are few endeavors so rewarding as filling an empty belly.
