The Cuban is my favorite sandwich of all time and I respect it deeply. However, sometimes, in summer, I occasionally skip roasting a hunk of pork and reach instead for herb-roasted turkey from the deli. Is it authentic? No. It is however, delicious. #linkinbio #TurkeyCuban #Cubansandwich #instagood #roastporkvsroastturkey
Plantains, starchy members of the banana family, become so crunchy when properly fried that potatoes turn away, ashamed of their own inadequacy #linkinbio #friedplantains #extremecrunch #instagood #snacksofinstagram
What’s in my drawer, part 1
Here’s a version of the classic broccoli-cheese casserole that is nowhere near as heavy, salty, or fatty as the one your grandmother used to make…OK, my grandmother used to make. #linkinbio #broccolicheesecasserole #betterthangrandmas #instagood #verycheesy
My coconut cake is an Easter must-have. With a 7-minute frosting, it’s a no brainer. #linkinbio #cakesofinstagram #happyeaster #desert #instacake #eastersunday #coconutcake #7minutefrosting
Carrots, allspice, cinnamon and nutmeg all wrapped up in a slightly sweet layer of cream cheese frosting. Also, breakfast. #linkinbio #carrotcake #cakesofinstagram #instagood #instamoist #creamycreamcheesefrosting
Due to their extremely fine grind, 00 flours absorb water more rapidly than most all purpose or bread flours. This means we can go with a hydration rate of 60% (the total weight of the water divided by that of the total flour), which translates to a less-sticky dough that’s easier to work with. #linkinbio #instafood #instagood #myfavoritepizza #altonperfectspizza

Once upon a time on a show called Good Eats, we made – 5 Pepper Deviled Eggs. Flavor overkill? I think not. #linkinbio #easteregg #familygathering #goodeats #theeggmaster #5pepperdeviledeggs
Roasted chickpeas tossed in salt and sumac make a healthy and easy snack. This application is inspired by a curiously crunchable concoction called “leblebi” found in the region around Corum in Turkey. #linkinbio #chickpeasnack #highlysnackable #instagood #snacksofinstagram
These butter flake rolls are worth the time and effort. #linkinbio #happyeaster #instagood #easterdelish #familygathering #butterflakerolls

Gumbo is little more than a roux-thickened stew with rice, and yet to call it nothing more than a roux-thickened stew with rice is to utter culinary blasphemy. #linkinbio #Cajunstyleshrimpgumbo #noblasphemyhere #instagood #instafood
Buttermilk gives this classic Indian dairy-based beverage a decidedly Southern spin, but for a bright and delicious morning smoothie, freeze the leftovers in ice cube trays…just trust me. #linkinbio #peachgingerbuttermilklassismoothie #georgiapeaches #peachlassi
Pretty much my favorite greens dish. Sometimes I just have this with a fried egg on top for dinner. #linkinbio #familygatherings #eastersunday #instagood #easterdinner #lemonsesameglazedgreens
Topped with a fluffy meringue and baked until golden brown, this baked banana pudding is a sweet Southern staple. #linkinbio #easterdinner #instagood #familygathering #eastersunday #bakedbananapudding

Morning
The carrot and its cousins celery, parsley, caraway, dill, and fennel all share a unique flavor compound: Petroselinic acid. By seasoning carrots with, say, fresh parsley, not only can we build a portfolio of contrasting flavors, the intensity of the carrot flavor itself is amplified…that’s right…to 11! #linkinbio #easterrecipes #easterfood #instagood #familygathering #gingerglazedcarrots
Enjoy this apricot brandy straight up or in any number of classic cocktails like a Golden Slipper or a Yellow Parrot. (And yes, you’ll earn extra credit if you get the reference.) #linkinbio #apricotbrandy #complexbrandy #Jawsthemovie #abcocktails #quint
Nothing says “summer” quite like a rum-based beverage. This classic hurricane cocktail is one of my go-tos. #linkinbio #summercocktail #itsfiveoclocksomewhere #rumbasedcocktail #hurricanecocktail
