ANTIPASTO AT MOMA

This past week I went to MOMA to see the various exhibits (Marina Abramovich, William Kentridge, and Cartier-Bresson) and stopped into Cafe 2 for a snack.  Here is a picture of the three appetizers chosen from the Antipasto List: Fregola Salad which had a nice creamy lemony mayonnaise with olives, zucchini and baby tomatoes; Grilled Artichoke on sauteed spinach (the artichoke was not grilled as far as I could tell) and there is some baby arugula on top; Calamari salad with black chickpeas and a tomato sauce. Everything tasted very good. Only cost $10.

GREAT HORS D'OEUVRES AND APPETIZERS CLASS

This spring I taught a Continuing Ed class at a West Nyack venue called BOCES. We had twelve participants and made a lot of food. It was a great bunch of people and hopefully they got to take away some useful tips and techniques. Here are some photos (I've tried to add captions but there is something about this system that has me unable to do so. I'll try again another day.):
