In Season Now: Figs! 💜


It's Fig Season!

Growing up, my only exposure to figs was in Fig Newtons. My grandmother turned me onto fresh figs many years ago just before she died, and I've loved them ever since. They're so sweet and luxurious, and they remind me of her every time I eat them.

Slow roasted citrus salmon

Hi Reader, There are a few ingredients I always keep on hand because I know they’ll make almost anything I’m cooking taste better. What's my favorite secret ingredient? Dijon mustard.
