Josh,

You mentioned this book and I requested it through our library system. Favorite recipes?

Amy,

The white bean/rosemary casserole is to die for, and yet cheap & easy too. I have a simplified version on my blog. The picture on the blog is from the "Hake San Sebastien" recipe, white fish with white asparagus. Eh. I made a bunch of substitutions, though, maybe the original recipe was stunning.

That was all I got the chance to make. Let me know if anything else works for you. We're still planning to go to his restuarants here in the city.

Josh,

Just looked at the recipe. It sounds awesome. On my list to make this week.

Josh,

I made the gratin last night. It was very good, but I think I would do it a little differently next time. I should have listened to my instinct which said not to puree all of the beans.

Amy

Amy,

Yeah? I liked it pureed. I've made it twice.

Tell me how it is semi-pureed when you do it.

Amy,

Since the farmer's market had fresh anaheim peppers for $1.50/lbs, I made the piperade as a brunch dish. The change I made to the recipe is that I poached the eggs in the pepper stew instead of stirring them in. Very good eaten over bread, if a bit spicier than anticipated.
