There are a few negi miso recipes out there, including a really simple one I use in my yellowtail collar (Hamachi Kama) recipe and shortrib donburi recipe, using just miso and chopped negi scallions. It retains the bite of the scallions since it uses raw …
I’ve been meaning to get this recipe up but it kept slipping my mind. I wasn’t able to taste test it until a month and a half after making it. Salted duck eggs are a traditional Chinese dish that preserves the eggs in a salt …
Now that my Misfit Market subscription allows me to customize my box, it makes it so much easier to plan the meals I’m going to make. One of my favorite dish (or snack—I’m not opposed to eating a big ol’ bowl of this by itself) …

As my ducks egg-laying season gets off to a late but present start, I’m treating myself to my favorite way of eating eggs–namely, the yolk, and always raw. This one is different from my single-side sear short rib donburi in that you can use thinly …
Asparagus season is in full swing in my garden which means the sweet, nutty, why-does-my-pee-smell-weird spears are a common sight during mealtimes. In general, I like them simple, roasted with a little olive oil and lemon, a turn of the salt and pepper grinder. Very …
