A Rhubarb and Walnut Frangipane Galette
I think I may have jumped the gun a bit this year. It’s not even April and here I am with a recipe for rhubarb. It’s just that the stalks were so bright and pink and colorful in the store, I couldn’t ignore them. I really couldn’t. Anyway, I’m not too mad about it. And…

When Words Fail: Red Fruit Galettes
If words fail you: close your mouth. Open your ears, your eyes always. Let your hands do the talking. Your hands will tell you if you are hurt, if they cannot do the work. Your hands will tell you if you are soft, full of love, caressing butter into flour. Your hands will cry for…

Vanilla Bean Cheesecake Tart with Roasted Rhubarb
Let’s make cheesecake! In tart form! I’m a big fan of tarts because they look super elegant and are simple to make. I specifically love a cheesecake in tart form. The towering height of a classic cheesecake (such as this one) is too rich for some people, and a tart scales it down, yielding a…

Whole Wheat Rhubarb Pie Bars
It’s that time of year again. Trees, newly clothed in pink blossoms, shed their skeletal selves. Grass emerges, sparkling new and green, from beneath relentless streams of rain. Rhubarb finds its way into my kitchen and has me spellbound with its pearly, pink power. I want to make a pie, a purely rhubarb pie, but…

Did I tell you guys I started working in a restaurant? I touched on it very briefly in this post, and it’s just for July, which is almost over(!), but I feel like sharing a bit more about it and finally have a little time and head space to elaborate some more. I’m the new…

Rhubarb and Rye Galettes
It’s officially Spring! This means cherry blossoms, rainstorms and… rhubarb. My one true love. Every year, I go a little bit overboard when I see rhubarb at the grocery. Something about those tart pink stalks just screams hope to me- they’re a sign that winter is truly over, and I’m always excited thinking about all…

Raspberry Rhubarb Galette
I held the pink stalks in my hands, wondering what to do with them. Should I make another jam? Roast them with honey? Use them to top a cake, maybe one with ricotta, frangipane? Possibilities stretched endless and I, wary of condemning the fruit to a trite, strawberried fate, dawdled. The rhubarb stalks, the ones…

Rhubarb, Cinnamon & Lavender Breakfast Puffs
I have to tell you something about rhubarb: it is my favorite. So much so that I planted rhubarb last spring, so much so that I even buy frozen rhubarb during the winter, so much so that when spring comes, and the stalks are pink, gleaming, I put it in everything. Even in breakfast puffs. Breakfast…

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
In honor of Pi Day tomorrow, here’s a recipe for one of my favorite pies: strawberry rhubarb. Strawberries have long been my favorite fruit; their sweetness, color and magical ability to turn any dessert into something delicious get me every time. But I only recently discovered rhubarb. Long stalks of mouth-puckeringly tart fruit streaked green and…
