The idea for Salmon Wellington popped into my mind when I was sent some Black Truffle Paté and Truffle Oil by Crafted Kosher- a company that is no longer in business. The term “Wellington” usually connotes tournedos covered with liver paté and puff pastry. I replaced the beef and liver […]
This recipe for Chicken, Pineapple and Snow Pea Kebobs was born out out of my frustration over not having an outdoor barbecue. For years, I’ve watched my friends grill outside. My husband and I are sort of “vetted and bonded” professional guests. We don’t have a summer house. Many of […]
