I first ate this astonishing spaghetti sauce in Massachusetts; my brother-in-law made it with lobster. This is my West Coast version, done with crab.

Today is Mother’s Day, and for me that means mom’s clam chowder. Not only is it a wonderful chowder, but it’s also a bowl full of memories.

Fishing for striped bass means far more to me than merely chasing my dinner. Stripers have become a marker for the key moments in my life.

Clam cakes? Yep, they’re a Rhode Island tradition. I eat them every time I go to Block Island. Think clam beignet, or a clam donut hole. They are sinfully good.

I have dug clams my whole life. But nothing prepared me for the thrill of clamming for Pacific horseneck and butter clams. This wasn’t foraging, this was hunting. And I love it.

Fine dining is a high-wire act, a balance between art, technique and flavor. Miss one element, and the dish fails. This dish, I am proud to say, did not fail.

One of my favorite fish recipes ever. It works with all firm fish, but it is especially good with sturgeon.

After half a decade of sporadic search, I have finally caught myself a legal sturgeon. It is not my first. That first fish showed me why sturgeon are so sought after. This one showed me humility.

Even though NorCal has not had a rough winter, I am longing for the green of spring. And this nettle soup was exactly what I needed right now.
