Cooking is a commonsense practice, not alchemy. Listening and watching closely while you cook will reveal a richly shaded language understood by all the senses - the degrees of a simmer, the aroma of a roast telling you it is done, the stages of elasticity of kneaded dough, the earthy scent of a vegetable just pulled from the ground - it is everything to mind these details. This is cooking. ~ Chez Panisse Cookbook

Fattoush + Cherry Crumble
Last week I saw a recipe for Fattoush and when I ran across another one yesterday I decided to make it. Fattoush is a salad that uses seasonal vegetables and stale flatbread as a base. I improvised and just used what I had - spinach, radishes, cucumbers, spring onions, chickpeas, and pita bread. I made a dressing out of tahini and Greek yogurt with a bit of lemon.
