Maple and Miso Salmon
Miso paste is made from fermented soybeans and is a key ingredient in Japanese cooking and forms the base of the staple dish, miso soup. It adds a huge depth of flavor and I always try to have some in my refrigerator. The salty miso paste mixed with the sweet maple syrup is a match made in heaven. I absolutely love this combination of flavors.

Mustard-Roasted Fish
We spent the most relaxing weekend at a friend's house in La Jolla, CA. We cooked, ate and didn't do a lot, which was just perfect. We found this incredible fish market called El Pescador and bought this Rock Cod, which is a small wild caught deep water rock fish, similar to red snapper. I made Ina Garten's VERY simple (5 minutes to prep and 10 to roast) Mustard-Roasted Fish. Serve it with your favorite roasted vegetables, baby potatoes, and a chilled Sancerre for a meal your friends will love.

Caviar Croque-Monsieur
Guest Blog
Here is a recipe from my friend Jessica:
This is the most indulgent thing we’ve ever made. Picture it, New Year’s Eve 2018: here we are, me and my husband, totally without invitations. So as we’ve done before, we decided to go it alone at home. So why not splurge on something decadent and expensive? If it’s just for two, right? Well, this is one for the ages. Spend a little money, open some champagne, and enjoy the fanciest grilled cheese sandwich you’ll ever have!

Bridget Jones’s Pan-Fried Salmon with Pine Nut Salsa
This Pan-Fried Salmon with Pine Nut Salsa is what Patrick Dempsey’s character tells Renée Zellweger’s Bridget Jones that he would have brought her on their imaginary second date in Bridget Jones’s Baby. ‘From Ottolenghi,’ says Dempsey, ‘delicious and healthy!’ The recipe didn’t even exist on their menu. Ottolenghi put it is his cookbook called, Ottolenghi Simple. I actually do not like olives or capers, but I have to say, it is absolutely delicious. I am even going to make it again.
