• Barbecue in the kitchen

  

  It's still a bit early for a cookout. So we grilled capocollo in the kitchen and served it with a simple, crisp, light salad. Some might say this dish should be paired with a local red wine, like a Primitivo or Negramaro. I chose a rosé wine from northern Apulia instead. It has bright coral…

• Bringing Home Fresh Produce from the Food Market

  

  From my visit to the food market this morning, I brought home a bouquet of artichokes. They're beautiful, aren't they? And then there are strawberries, which have a sweet scent and say "eat me."
