Butter Steamed New Potatoes
New potatoes are harvested while still relatively immature, while "old potatoes" are left to grow to their maximum size. New potatoes have a thin layer of high-grade protein just under the skin. The best ways to take advantage of it is to consume them unpeeled. I love potatoes and am always trying to find new ways to prepare them. This method infuses butter into these delicate, small potatoes.

Hummus
This Hummus recipe is perfect. In 1977, Julee Russo and Sheila Lukins opened and ran a gourmet food shop in New York City called The Silver Palate, the first gourmet carry-out shop in Manhattan. It happened to be around the corner from my first apartment, which was 333 square feet facing North with a reflection of the Empire State Building in the window across the street. (I was trying to put a spin on my teeny tiny studio apartment!) In the 1980s they wrote The Silver Palate Cookbook, which had an enormous influence on me. I got really serious about cooking during this time.
