In our current travel issue, Nancy Matsumoto takes us behind the polished oak counter and into the kitchen at Brushstroke, Chef David Bouley’s foray into the art of Japanese kaiseki. This intensely seasonal, small-plate dining dates back to the 16th century, having evolved out of the tea ceremony.
Artisans
Sometimes words just can’t capture the richness of a meal or the perfection of a composed plate. But often, a photo can.
New York City is no stranger to artisanal foods. We’ve got fancy jam, fancy mayonnaise, fancy pickles, fancy peanut butter…and now, fancy ketchup, too.
We food lovers have abandoned squishy pre-sliced sandwich bread for crusty, yeasty loaves of sourdough and passed on saccharine supermarket yogurt for the gloriously decadent creamline stuff found at the Greenmarket. So why should we settle for drab colas and over sweetened ginger ales with only aromas of the pungent root? Thanks to artisan-minded soda makers, we don’t have to.
From pretzels and pletzels and pizza to shrimp rolls and chopped liver and duck blinis and banh mi, we ate well at Good Beer last year. More beer and food anyone?
It’s condimentary. Sir Kensington’s Ketchup is tailor-made for brawny burgers like Little Owl’s.
The quirky couple behind the Greenmarket’s best small-batch bakery.
In our latest issue, Rachel Wharton goes inside Mike Jacober’s Morris Truck for a peek at the making of market-driven grilled cheese.
Join us at the Fifth Annual Taste of Greenmarket on Wednesday, June 27, 2012 where we’ll feast on fancy fare inspired by the summer’s bounty at our local Greenmarkets and sip seasonal cocktails, all in honor of pioneering women in agriculture.
With help from NY1, we took a peek into a 23-year-old bakery in Inwood to learn more about bizcocho, or what the Dominicans call cake. This spot is particularly beloved for its tres leches.
