Rue le Sel: October 2010
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 31, 2010. On the apple uptake. I’m a bit late on the apple uptake, I know. While I’m giving you recipes for tarte tatin, the recognizable orchard bags full of the season’s best Macouns and Empires are slowly being replaced by mounds of their less fresh, less crisp cousins. But you can still find the good ones, you can. So let’s get on with it then, here is your tarte tatin – not fresh from the oven, but not far off – as promised. Adapted from Smitten Kitchen. 1 ½ cup flour. Place the crus...

Rue le Sel: March 2011
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 27, 2011. Get in the kitchen already. I’ve been thinking about the art of repetition lately, of routine, about how it is less than an art sometimes. Or, about how if it was. An art, it would be akin to medieval madonna and childs, the ones that dominated thirteenth century Christian art with reds, and yellows, and the hard lines like Modigliani’s, but less inspiring and about 800 years older. And it would be the Madonna by the guy who was only copying. The important guy who painted it first.

Rue le Sel: June 2011
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 1, 2011. Rue le Sel is getting an update. And a new name. And a new space. It's been a few years here, and though it tried not to, this little space began to feel a little tired, its wrinkles started to set in. And since we (read: I) are a big proponent of change around here, I thought a complete overhaul would only be appropriate. The blog and I can now be found, disguised entirely under a new name and look, here. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Hi there. I write this.

Rue le Sel: January 2011
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 28, 2011. I haven’t been cooking a lot lately. The idea is, presumably, if you're the kind of person with a recipe-centric blog, that the recipes you share ought to be good, intricate, impressive. The idea is also that you should be cooking these, often. Do I have the wrong idea? Clearly, when I make something that fits into the above criteria, I want to share it with you. But what about everything else? I do tend to eat more than once a week. Kale Salad with Apple and Red Onion. Note: Th...

Rue le Sel: May 2011
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 6, 2011. I am having a month. Is that an expression? It’s like, oh, I am having a day. Days Except for it’s a month. Here’s a good example: this morning I walked outside, and my car was gone. Just not there, at all. And then I realized, after many moments of reflection, that I had almost certainly parked directly in front of someone else's driveway. Smack in the middle, blocking any hope of them leaving this morning, unless their car was actually a plane. I would have towed my car too. They a...

Rue le Sel: July 2010
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 27, 2010. Veganism is something I kind of shy away from. If you know me, you are well aware of my borderline sanity-threatening obsession with cheese. I am simply not willing to give that up. We can peacefully coexist, veganism and I, it’s just not my cup of proverbial tea, much like socks with individual toes or cutting the crusts off sandwiches. These vegan cookies are damn good. You shouldn’t judge a cookie recipe by its dietary life decisions. Try it if you don’t believe...6 - 7 ounces ...

Rue le Sel: The love affair
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2011/03/love-affair.html
Thursday, March 10, 2011. This food is the holy grail. Of food. It’s almost like the culinary world’s femme fatale, disguised neatly in a power business suit. But then, then you look down, and there are red, six-inch heels. Bright red. Just the perfect amount of flair to make it no longer just neat and professional and technically executed, but creative, slightly mysterious. And suddenly, the food has the power to make you do strange things, like buy a twenty-six dollar glass of sparkling wine. All manne...

Rue le Sel: Me and this little site
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2011/02/me-and-this-little-site.html
Wednesday, February 23, 2011. Me and this little site. I suppose this took long enough. Rue le Sel now has an about / FAQ page. Just in case anyone reading is not my mother, or father, or brother, or another such close blood relative, you can learn all about me and this little site. You might even learn about things painted on my bathroom wall. It's over there (Right now I'm pointing to the right side of your browser), listed with the Recipe Index. Check it out. Have a lovely evening, and talk to you soon.

Rue le Sel: September 2010
http://ruelesel.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 12, 2010. I guess I've been so busy lately, with making granola bars and dreaming about road trips, that I've forgotten to tell you all that I have a trip of my own planned. I'm off and running, destined for good food and good wine and better company, to Europe. For six whole weeks. Until then, stay well, and stay hungry. Talk to you soon. Links to this post. Wednesday, September 1, 2010. Until you get to wherever you're going. Every family has their vacation traditions. For my family, ...
