The weekend is a blink away and summer mornings are perfect for ambitious brunch plans. So what better way to celebrate a Friday in July than with a delicious and surprisingly simple brunch recipe? This Mapo Tofu Frittata may seem complex and yes, it does require a few ingredients that you may or may not be familiar with. But I promise this frittata is as easy to pull off as any other. It just has more fire and moxie than its more pedestrian peers. The truth is complex flavors don’t always require complex techniques. So let’s dive right in.

Shrimp Toast with Green Cocktail Sauce and White Bean Hummus

Jump to Recipe

When I shared the teaser for this Shrimp Toast with Green Cocktail Sauce, there were many comments about the uniqueness of my food. I am and was flattered but I don’t think the praise is entirely deserved. This toast, while pretty, is a visual inventory of what was in my fridge at the time of its conception. The green cocktail sauce a desperate attempt to justify buying my weight in tomatillos. The white bean hummus merely an expression of my undying love for, well, hummus. Basically, my brain darts around in a million directions, and I let it. And then I attempt to make it look intentional in the aftermath. It’s all culinary smoke and mirrors.

I know, it’s been, like, a week since I posted my Seared Ribeye with Chili Crisp Butter and here I am with yet another chili crisp creation. It’s okay, you can think I’m obsessed. I know I am. And if you’ve ever tasted the magic that is Lao Gan Ma’s Spicy Chili Crisp, I’m confident you are as well. So you will forgive me for posting these Chili Crisp Tahini Noodles on the heels of that unforgettable butter. These noodles just demanded to be made. And with the official arrival of summer, this chilled noodle dish is a very helpful and heatwave-friendly meal to have in your back pocket. So repeat ingredients aside, this is all very timely.

Peanut Butter Bombes with Potato Chip Sable Cookies

Peanut Butter Bombes with Potato Chips Sable Cookies

Jump to Recipe

I think it’s safe to say these Peanut Butter Bombes are not good for you in any traditional sense. They aren’t keto or paleo or refined sugar-free. What they are, though, is the taste of joy. A pure and utter indulgence that makes you tingle from toes to nose…that might also be the sugar. There’s no way to tell. I made these with my father in mind. Peanut butter is pretty much his life’s blood at this point and he’s also an ardent fan of caramel and potato chips. So naturally, I turned his favorites into a bombe because a bombe is pretty much three desserts in one. And I will break each layer down in detail and you’ll see these bombes are nothing to fear.
