Looking for light

December 1, 2010

Trying to find light in our new space. Hello everyone! I have not had time to take many pictures yet. There are lots of boxes still to unpack. But one key thing. I feel very lucky to have a new kitchen where I already love to cook. Inspired. That's the first and only picture I so far took. There has to be beginnings, non?

I am sure you have all the space and drive to cook with your new and amazing kitchen... I am so excited with your entire new share coming. I think your blog is already one of my favorite and I am learning a lot from you.

How do you serve the Romanesco broccoli to your daughter? I tried to get my children excited, just because of its wonderful look... but they did not particularly enjoyed it (and they like broccoli) Oh well, next time? Bonne installation!

It looks amazing. You have the touch of an artist :) Also I must add that nature is really awesome sometimes. Those forms and patterns... a truly higher power. Thank you, Itai Matos (TFIM)

When I lived in France I used to see those greens in the market all the time - the ones that look like they came out of some psychedelic poster from the 60's - but never knew their name in English. I've been searching for them and now - thanks to you - I know! Romanesco broccoli, here I come! Thanks so much!

Merci merci. Gaelle, I added the romanesco to a riz pilaf with coconut milk, ground coriander, cumin and saffron. And grated red kuri squash.
Terry · December 6, 2010

Rachel · December 1, 2010
Is that romanesco broccoli? I just learned of it for the first time yesterday and would love to try it. Where's it available this time of year?
Miri Leigh · December 1, 2010
Oh yes, beautiful light. I can't wait to see what comes next. Happy housewarming.
Béa · December 1, 2010
Thank you! Thank you! Loving it! Papillotes, so happy you liked the gratin. Merci. Have been making a few more since then! Rachel, unfortunately, romanesco broccoli is *not* easy to find. I bought these at the last farmer's market in Copley Square :-( I am still hopeful we can find some more. Any one else knows where to get it?

I don't know the English word for this vegetable, but in French it's "chou Romanesco". I really like this one. To eat and to look!
Papillotes · December 1, 2010
Gorgeous light! And the photograph is beautiful, as usual. I have tried your "gratin dauphinois" for Thanksgiving, it was absolutely delicious, thank you.

To new beginnings... I really like the contrast in colors, hue's of barely mind and pinks... where did you get your colander?

J'ai hâte de voir toutes les merveilleuses (et surtout délicieuses !) choses que tu vas nous préparer dans ta nouvelle cuisine ! Et au fait, je pense que tu as déjà trouvé la lumière ! :)

Lovely photo! Good luck with the rest of your unpacking!
Erika · December 1, 2010
When I saw the title of your post, I was sure it was going to be related to the first day of Hannukah. Very timely sentiment! Here's to all of us searching for new light.
Alka · December 15, 2010
