Tataki Tactics
Tataki Tactics
I find it hard to believe, but there are still people out there who, when the topic of sashimi or sushi is mentioned, swear they would never eat raw fish.

A Dessert That Tastes As Fresh As Summer
Most people think of ice cream as one of the perfect summer desserts. And I wouldn't argue with them.
 
The Simple Pleasures of Cherry Tomatoes
The Simple Pleasures of Cherry Tomatoes
One of my mottos as a chef has always been "Keep it simple." I think that today, too many cooks -- both in restaurant kitchens and at home -- try too hard to complicate things. But when you have great ingredients to start with, simple is best.

With the Fourth of July coming this weekend, most people right now are thinking about grilling.
