This bread crumb chicken has become a favorite around here, both piping hot right out of the oven for dinner and cold straight from the fridge for lunch. I made a few changes to the original recipe to make it work better for me: I used fresh bread crumbs in place of panko and roasted at a slightly higher temperature for the entire time. After 40 minutes, the chicken emerges beautifully golden with a coating begging to be devoured....

Surprise Aunt Marcy: I’ve been making it too!

Nearly every time I pick up the weekly farmshare, I am reminded of the saying, “What grows together, goes together.” At the height of the summer, each produce box looks designed to make ratatouille. When the basil is exploding, so are the tomatoes, giving us no reason not to make Caprese salads every night for dinner. When the cilantro is abounding, so are the chilies, leaving us no choice but to make large vats of pico de gallo and sit around the bowl with a heap of chips....

A few weeks ago, I stopped by my aunt and uncle’s house in Vermont en route home from a soccer tournament with my daughters. It was a Sunday, late in the afternoon, and we couldn’t stay long, so we made the most of it, sliding into stools around their big farmhouse table, ready to receive all the nourishment time would allow. Within minutes of arriving, my aunt had toasted us thick slices of peasant bread and slathered them with butter....

Having generally not loved the salads I had served them up until this point, this was both a shocking and welcomed discovery. They were eating my mother’s Greek salad, and as I watched them gobble up chopped Romaine lettuce leaves, halved cherry tomatoes, and slivered red onions, I wondered: How? Why? As I thought more, I realized it had to be the dressing, which my family credits to my Great Aunt Phyllis....
I had watched volunteers at SFN stomp in the mud and cobble together an oven in two days, and I couldn’t stop dreaming about the pizzas, thin and crisp with a blistered bubbly edge, that emerged from that wood-fired oven.
