For some time I’ve been telling myself that I should devise a way to indicate, at least for my own information, those meals that worked out particularly well, meals, or plates in some cases, that were absolutely scrumptious. I’m going to try something out for the first time with this post: I’ll use a red asterisk above …

goat cheese, tomato; fennel-grilled tuna; treviso; ice cream
We had a guest, almost a last-minute guest, last night. I did however have enough notice to be able to purchase 3 servings of fish at the Union Square Greenmarket earlier in the day, and also one beautiful head of radicchio larger than one I would normally bring home. It all went swell. It was …
grilled: steak, balsamic-marinated treviso, eggplant & olives
I used 3 different grill pans in putting this meal together. That may be a first. It may also have been the first time I included some form of garlic in each element of an entrée, although probably not. But I forgot to include the color. The image is embarrassingly monochromatic; I hadn’t thought about the aesthetic effect until I …
broiled sea perch with anchovy; tomatoes; roasted treviso
I love this fish, and have sung the praises of sea perch on this blog more than once before. The only hesitation I ever have in dealing with it comes while I pause to decide which recipe to use. Last night I went with the one which involves anchovy, because the rest of the plate pretty much said ‘Mediterranean’. six red …
mushroom ravioli, herbs, treviso, balsamic, parmesan
I had only a small window through which I might put together a dinner on Tuesday, so I assembled a simple sauce for a filled pasta I had been keeping in our small freezer compartment.

roasted squid with oregano, chile; roasted treviso
a wonderful pairing, even before the wine was poured The meal was a treat, and had I not purchased all the ingredients myself, I might have had a hard time believing that all ingredients together probably set me back only 11 or 12 dollars, and that’s for two people! Even considering that it was a dinner prepared at home, …
duck breast, kartoffelklöße, treviso with balsamic

The recipe for the duck breast has become a classic in our kitchen. duck breast from Pat LaFrieda at Eataly, the fatty side …
walnut, ‘blue-ish’ cheese, radicchio rigatoni, mandarin zest
It was to be a pasta evening, and I found a Food52 recipe, ‘Pasta with Gorgonzola, Radicchio, Walnuts, and Orange’, that really appealed to me, and then I happy to reailize I had virtually all of the ingredients called for, with one near exception being that almost the main one: The formula asked for gorgonzola …
marinated, breaded swordfish, potatoes; tardivo, balsamic
Dinner was good, very good. While we were enjoying it I thought to myself, surprisingly good, but if I had considered our routinely good experiences with the terrific fresh swordfish we can get in Manhattan, I couldn’t have been surprised. one beautiful 16.5 ounce swordfish steak from American Seafood Company halved, marinated on an ironstone platter …
new year’s eve prosciutto; truffle agnolotti, pepper, chicory
And Champagne of course. The picture above was taken in the subdued light of the dining gallery, which I normally can’t trust to be bright enough for an unblurred image. It worked this time, but I didn’t trust it for a second shot, so I took a picture of the pasta while it was still …
