I don’t regularly photograph my lunch. I mean, you’ve seen one peanut butter and jelly sandwich, you’ve seen them all. And everyone knows how to make them. No fun.

Have you ever opened a food magazine, seen a photograph of a dish and knew you had to make it as soon as possible or you’d die? That is what happened to me with this recipe from Saveur Magazine issue No. 127. I read the ingredient list and I was a goner, and on my [...]
