Personal Favorite Recipes
Cooking is personal. Our food choices, access to certain ingredients, and personal and communal food histories all coalesce to impact what food we make and what we enjoy.

It's a moment in time, a snapshot of the foods in 2022 that I love to make. Whether I have time to cook them or not is a different conversation.
