GREEN LIGHT Go ahead and use those broccoli stalks. YOU’VE PROBABLY heard of the “nose-to-tail” approach that uses all the edible parts of an animal, not just the familiar steaks and chops. Not because I’m a vegetable rights campaigner, mind you, but because we’re trying to eliminate food waste. And fortunately, with many vegetables, the part you usually throw away (or hopefully compost) can be the most delicious. The Italians are broccoli champions, with regional varieties growing in every home garden.
WHETHER IN THE CABINET or the veg bin of the refrigerator, onions are in every kitchen, right? I usually have a basket of them on my counter, ready to be chopped and sautéed and eventually stirred into whatever soup, stew or pasta dish is on my stove. For much of my career as a chef, I thought of onions as essential, yes, but not exciting—the backup singers of the food world. But several years ago, I had an epiphany that forever changed my thinking about the onion’s place on the plate.

The lockdowns were still in place, and boredom had replaced the initial shock of it all. Thanksgiving was around the corner, but that year the feast would be just for my husband, David, and me plus a neighbor. That year, David arranged our garage so it functioned as an intimate yet socially distanced café for three. As for the menu, I’ve never been a fan of traditional roast turkey—let’s be honest, it’s kind of bland and dry—and for three people, even the smallest turkey wouldn’t make sense. I needed an alternative that was practical but festive enough to bring some much-needed cheer.
