Slow Roasted Tomato Gazpacho

When I had the first opportunity to travel out of the country, I chose Spain, or rather, Spain chose me. I was in my mid-30’s, completely independent, at the precipice of changes in my food career and gushing with a sense of wonder at the fact that as a single, young woman, I could just … Continue reading →

Most people think of chicken soup to help soothe what ails you, whether it be a cold, or just plain feeling in the dumps.
