Latest greatest meal cooked at home:

homemade pizza - my favorite new one - a kind of ode to the lower east side - thin crust (Alice Water's crust recipe) baked with a thin layer of herb ricotta - then fresh out of the oven topped with smoked white fish and garnished with lots of purple scallions from the green market and a splash of lemon juice
