When I went to Australia earlier this year, I overdosed on egg and bacon rolls. I sent an enthusiastic email to Grace about how I was enjoying recreating my own here at home, and she wrote me back th...
I admit that for me, onion rings are synonymous with Burger King. There, I said it! French fries = McDonald’s, onion rings = Burger King. And as with most fast food/junk food, there is a homemade rec...
To me, nothing says May like ramps and asparagus. That’s why I jumped on the opportunity to present cook Anna Watson Carl’s simple, seasonal recipe for Linguine with Ramps, Asparagus and Baby Arugula...
I’ve got a serious case of TGIF this week. I’m ready for the first week of May to be over and for the second week to be way better than this one. So to celebrate, I’m going to find ...
Grace was introduced to the Pie Spot in Portland (Oregon) last summer when she and Amy visited during the Design*Sponge book tour. We all thought it would be great to reproduce one of their recipes, ...
We put great thought into making the In the Kitchen With column full of quick, easy and even impromptu recipes both savory and sweet. Our greatest hope is that you actually try a recipe or two, and a...
I just don’t get enough Indian food here at home unless I make my own! That said, I think mine tastes great, but I have absolutely no basis for comparison, so I always joke with a colleague that if h...
I really liked the work of Australian cookbook authors the Hungry Girls that was featured here on Design*Sponge not so long ago. I immediately got in touch with them to see what we could cook up for ...
OK, here’s the deal: Four years ago, artist Susan Schwake offered us a falafel recipe for the column that we didn’t end up posting. (Sorry, Suzie!) I had tried making falafel and found that the...
I am so excited to present this week’s recipe by stylist Dani Fisher. Dani asked if I’d be interested in a recipe for Passover, and unexpectedly, the recipe included chocolate. It was a w...
I came across photographer Vanessa Rees’ work on Pinterest. I really liked her photos and the food in the images, but I fell in love with her assistant, Marshall. Vanessa and I began exchanging emai...
Chocolate chip cookies are one of those sweets for which people never tire of trying new recipes. This week, photographer Jennifer Martiné shares the recipe for her favorite Chocolate Chip, Cocoa Nib...
Last year, I begrudgingly accepted the shortcomings of the regular white potato compared to the orange sweet potato, which is richer in vitamins. Since turning a cold shoulder on the white potato, I’...
Carrot cake is one of those desserts that I am always tempted to try wherever I see it on the menu. I’m always on the hunt for the perfect recipe, and I’ve already found a couple, from Saveur a...
I am not a voracious cheesecake eater, though I love tasting just one bite to feel the creaminess and perfect crust-to-filling ratio. But that doesn’t always happen, so until now, only Nigella ...
I’m still craving sweets, and it’s still cold out, so I thought this would be the perfect week for a “best sweets” round up from our archives. These recipes are perfect for cu...
I’ve recently been liberated from our yard, where I was snowed in for five days. In knee-deep snow atop inches of ice, fallen trees stood between me and the gate to our driveway, which leads out onto...
I was never interested in spaghetti alle vongole (spaghetti with clams) until I stayed in Naples for a week for work and ate dinner by myself. Without the influence of friends’ orders, I let th...
After last week’s brownies, I thought I’d give everyone a break from the high-sugar, high-fat splurge with a very healthy recipe. Chef Gaby Dalkin has whipped up the perfect dish to restore balance t...
Brownies were one of the first desserts I learned to make using the recipe from the Hershey’s Cocoa label. SOOOOO good. I am tempted to say they are foolproof, but they really aren’t. If a brownie is...
I love dumplings of all types and rarely pass up the opportunity to try out highly recommended dim sum restaurants. Because they are so easy to make, I also like trying them at home, so I’m ver...
Despite plenty of traveling to Germany and Austria, I never really appreciated schnitzel until I read The Accidental Foodie by Neale Whitaker and came across Bill Granger’s recipe for chicken s...
We met Jenny and Teri, the team behind Spoon Fork Bacon, earlier today with their Honey-Rum Fizz. We thought their recipe for no-yeast cake dougnuts was perfect for the holidays too, especially for ...
I can’t decide which was more fun this week: making the truffles or corresponding with Eric “Johnny” Battles, chocolatier and founder of Sweeteeth in North Charleston, South Carolin...
I’ll confess, I’ve been listening to Christmas music since July (“Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” sung by Johnny Mercer and Margaret Whiting, is on now), and I’m about t...
Usually, I would wait until closer to Christmas for a recipe like this, but it is so versatile that I wanted to give you the chance to try it out a few times waaaay before the holiday. By the time Ch...
Since this is the last day before Thanksgiving here at Design*Sponge, I asked Grace if we could do an exceptional Wednesday post on a recipe I’m hoping you’ll be able to use this weekend,...
I live in Italy. I love pizza. I don’t know if one has anything to do with the other, but both are true! I’ve been thinking about a pizza recipe for the column ever since mud australia ex...
My former boss was from Adelaide, and she looovveed to cook, bake and try new restaurants. She knew I did, too, so she always shared typical Australian things with me, like the Green and Gold Cookery...
I love cake. I won’t say any kind of cake, but most kinds of cake. And I am always mesmerized and drawn to tall, soft, one-layer cakes. This week we have a recipe for a simple and delicious plu...
