The Flavor is Beyond Words...πŸ’œ

Hey friends❣️

After 15 years of professional recipe development I don't think I've ever come across a more vibrant flavor...

​Black Raspberry Vinaigrette​

It's berry picking season and I'm sharing a few recipes that can be made with just a handful or two of your precious finds.

The rhythm of summer produce is so satisfying. We're not ready for stone fruits or ripe melons just yet, but oh, the berries! If you're lucky enough to be able to pick your own, it's the ultimate experience, and these recipes won't deplete your hard earned stash.

Are you plucking your fruit from the produce aisle? No worries, that works too!

Using berries as a garnish is one way to make use of small amounts of perfect fruit:

These individual desserts can be customized to any size:

More fun recipes that require just a handful of berries!

​Sweet Corn Polenta with Shrimp 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

My husband loves creamed corn and polenta, so when I saw this beautiful recipe, I had to try it. We loved it! We kept going back to the kitchen for snitches πŸ™‚ after our dinner. We are so thankful there are leftovers for lunch the next day! Thank you for a wonderful recipe!
I also liked the idea of using whole milk to keep the polenta creamy.

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!

Hey friends❣️ So much good food out there...I'm here to help you sort it all out. The Bite Shot Conveying the experience of eating delicious food through a photo (or video) is one of the great challenges for any food photographer, and the bite shot has always been one of my favorite ways to tell that story. Bite shots are intimate, life-sized views that show food at its most tempting, either before, during, or after a bite. They use visual cues to suggest texture, temperature, flavor, even...

Swedish Almond Cardamom Cookies

Hey friends❣️ Happy Sunday! I'm back home and excited for a big week in the kitchen. Send me your requests, I'm focusing on the holidays! I picked up several cookbooks while in Door County, and the one that inspires me most is The Scandinavian Year: Food and thoughts from Sweden, Denmark and Norway. I've bookmarked so many pages to try, it's a good one. Early on in our trip I picked up large almond-y cookies in a Swedish bakery at the very tip of the penninsula ~ and by the time we finished...
