Amity Island Shrimp Boats | Jaws

This year marks the 45th anniversary of Jaws, the sharky summer blockbuster that terrified would-be beachgoers in theaters in 1975. Based on the novel by Peter Benchley and directed by Stephen Spielberg (who was only 27 at the time!), the film with its iconic soundtrack and clever editing became an instant classic....

New York Style Pizza | TMNT

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles feels very New York, from the living and travel beneath the streets, the garbage truck that shoots sewer lids (that’s a thing, right?), and the pizza. Oh, the pizza.  New Yorkers are passionate about their pizza. As a Southern girl, I first became familiar at a...

SUSPIRIA-inspired Snow White Roasted Vegetables and Sausage with Red Wine Reduction

In the same way folklore transforms over time, 2018’s Suspiria is a thorough retelling of the classic 1977 Dario Argento Giallo horror. Though both films tell the twisted fairy tale of a beautiful, talented and determined American ballerina coming to an elite, witch-inhabited dance school in Germany, the space between...

Cinderella Cassoulet

Shake and quiver, little tree, Throw gold and silver down to me. This cassoulet is “authentic” the same way Cinderella in various film adaptations is “French.” Which is to say not really, but I think it definitely captures the spirit. It’s hearty and simple, made with common ingredients so it...

Vegetarian Shami Kebab Burgers with Shiitake Bacon & Pakora Fries | Ms Marvel

Spicy, savory shami kebabs make awesome burgers, and go just as well with ketchup as they do with green chutney. It seemed like the perfect thing to make as a main course for our Ms Marvel menu, Pakistani food that an American teenager can get excited about. And since on...

Linguine with Clam Sauce | Weetzie Bat

You are in my blood. I cant help it. We can’t be anywhere except together. Weetzie Bat by Francesca Lia Block is a glittery glam fairy tale, full of enchanting characters living deliciously on a sparkling sun-soaked LA backdrop. Though it views the world through neon pink colored glasses, it...

Rye Popovers with Welsh Rarebit Sauce | Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

I adored Tim Burton’s 2016 film Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children based on the book of the same name by Ransom Riggs. I can attribute most of my love to the film’s charming and spookyl atmosphere, from the Burtonesque settings, to the paranomal abilitied children I’ve described as X-Men...

Codfish Pudding | Peter Pan

Just always be waiting for me. I reread Peter Pan by JM Barrie, a book I loved as a child, a couple of years ago; it was just as sweet and funny as I remembered, but it’s now layered by my adult experience. There’s some unfortunate misogyny (poor Wendy), and...

Leg of Lamb with Mint Pesto | Twin Peaks

Twin Peaks is weird, wonderful, and absolutely full of food. Beyond the iconic cherry pie and damn fine coffee, characters are constantly cooking, eating, and waxing poetic about their favorite meals. It’s so full of brilliant food scenes and mentions in fact, that I have a full Twin Peaks Archive...
