Recipes & notes
Everything we've cooked and thought worth writing down, newest first. Seasonal where we can manage it, honest where we can't.
A Pot of Beans, Properly
Dried beans, an onion, a little time. How to get a creamy pot with broth worth saving — no pressure cooker required.
Why I Stopped Following Recipes and Started Cooking Instead
