This was really superb pork, but then so was everything else on the plate. And yet this was still March, and we were in the midst of a pandemic. Barry and I live very well, with the help of others, and we will survive, with the help of others, even in the midst of our …

bresaola; smoked pork chops; roasted red turnips; sprouts
There was a lot of red, and off-red, but, in our defense, it was Valentine’s Day. The color began, even before any of the food had arrived, when I put this Transvaal native Gerbera daisy and its red-painted ancient iron cachepot on the table (like almost everything else connected to the meal, the plant had …
lemon-braised pork chops; roasted futsu squash; collards
Using what has long been my standard recipe, I can arrange pork chops with fixings appropriate for any season of the year, from farms and waters in the New York City area. On Sunday it was time for an autumn take. I’m reading an unintended smiley face on the squash. Also unintended, I ended up looking …
lemon/habanada-roasted pork chops, tomatoes; collards
Our favorite chops. The tomatoes and the collards are pretty fine too. two 9-ounce bone-in loin pork chops from Flying Pigs Farm, thoroughly dried, seasoned with sea salt and freshly-ground black pepper and seared quickly in a heavy enameled cast-iron pan before half of an organic lemon from Whole Foods Market was squeezed over the top (the …
smoked pork chops, scallion; braised cabbage; potatoes
For a number of reasons, both of cause and effect, it wasn’t quite a German meal, but it had its pretensions. a small amount of a mix of lard and duck fat, stained, which had been kept in the freezer after 2 previous meals, heated over a low flame inside a heavy vintage oval tin-lined copper pan, …
smoked pork chops in Weinkraut; cress; roasted radishes
We both agreed that this was absolutely the most delicious smoked pork we had ever had – in any form. I’d say it was almost entirely about the virtue of the supplier, Flying Pigs Farm, but I would also have to add that, over time, I’ve learned a little about how to best enjoy this …
lemon-roasted pork chops; pea shoots; radish/parsley root
I really think the approach I used here, and have used many times before, is the best way to treat a good pork chop – or two – and, as with the best recipes, its simplicity makes it possible to invent any number of variations. Last night however there were no twists, not even a last-minute fresh herb, really (this …
lemon-roasted pork chops; mustard greens; pickled beets
This was the first fully-prepared meal I have been able (allowed) to put on the table since cutting off the tip of my index finger in a kitchen accident on the 7th, and I relished every bit of it. In preparation, I went to the Greenmarket the day before, fairly late, as I had only to pick up …
pork chops, lemon, micro radish; peppers, scallion; tomato
It was cool that night, so I had no hesitation in firing up the oven to cook some lemon pork chops. The recipe is a favorite, normally enjoyed only in cool weather, and we’ve enjoyed these dark red (‘black’) cherry tomatoes before, but this variety of sweet peppers was new to me. The peppers were Juicy, sweet, with …
pork chops with lemon, micro beets; ozettes; asparagus
This turned out to be a pretty sturdy meal for the first day of May, but the temperature never got much above 50º, so it wasn’t very far out of line with the real weather. In fact, I was able to use a 450º oven to cook 2 of the 3 items on the plates and still not really heat …
