I promised more summery recipes so here is one to make the most of the short apricots’ season.

I started taking ballet when I was 2 years old, and my mom started taking me to see The Nutcracker every year not too long after.

A sweet and savory dish prepared with beef, ginger and gobo simmered in mirin and soy sauce until the meat completely absorbs the sauces.

Spicy, sweet and bursting with the flavor of tomatoes and basil.

A crunchy fresh spinach salad that is jeweled with ruby pomegranate arils, and juicy plum slices.

Back in 2010, my family and I went to a Thanksgiving buffet where we enjoyed the most amazing onion soup.
