Happy Mother's Day! Today I'm sharing a recipe with a special ingredient that both my mom and I love. And I'm also announcing something that is, honestly, a bit of real self-care for me this Mother's Day: I'm taking a recording hiatus for the next few months. I won't be recording new episodes during that time, but don't worry. There will still be an episode from the archives in your Recipe of the Day podcast feed every single day, seven days a week, while I'm gone. Thank you so much for listening over the past 4.5 years. In that time, I've recorded more than 1,570 episodes, and I've truly loved cooking along with you. I'm taking a few months to recharge, and then I'll be back in your kitchen and in your headphones again soon. Thanks for listening!

And this tip can be applied to a whole bunch of other grocery items, saving you an insane amount of money.

To keep on the orange juice theme, I'm sharing a tasty, easy recipe for Orange Chicken that makes just enough for two people and can be ready in 15 minutes. I also talk about two other budget-friendly formats for acquiring orange juice.

I've been home alone for the last few days and discovered that if I don't have a plan for dinner, I will just not eat until I get so starving that I make a big, overly cheesy grilled cheese sandwich. In this episode, I tell you what I did on Day 2 of alone time so that I didn't end up starvingly stuffing cheese in my mouth at 10pm again. I also have a tangent about garlic powder, and I'm share a very simple, tasty recipe for thin-sliced boneless short ribs (flanken-style ribs). This is something I make all the time but don't have a written down recipe for. But really, it doesn't need one because it really is just that easy.

My own family's Easter menu is the focus of today's Recipe of the Day podcast episode. There's the usual ham, deviled eggs, scalloped potatoes, and veg. But then also two extras that really make it feel like Easter to me, and I'm going to tell you more about making them. First up is Paska, that beautiful braided Ukrainian bread. My family's version, which goes back to my great grandmother, has saffron and golden raisins. Today, I'm not telling you how to make it though. I am instead lamenting about flour in Florida and hoping for a solution. Second is something I only ever make at Easter time, although I don't know why, since I love it so much. It's a traditional Ukrainian meat dish called studenetz. You've probably heard it called something else, but I prefer to not use that name. "Studenetz" has a more musical ring to it, and people are more likely to taste it and to like it when it has that title!

Halibut cheeks? Yes, really. In this episode, I'm talking with Sena Wheeler from @senasea-seafoods about which Alaskan fish are in season in March. It's a conversation that also touches on fresh versus frozen, seafood safety, and how to cook it perfectly too. Sena also shares a recipe for halibut cheeks and talks about why this cut is so prized. They're tender, sweet, and a real treat if you can get your hands on them. I also have a quick update from my own kitchen as I get ready for an upcoming vacation.

Waste less, cook faster! I'm sharing a simple kitchen habit that cuts down on food waste while making prep and cleanup a bit quicker too. In this solo episode, I talk about a small shift in the way you handle ingredients that can save time and keep good food from ending up in the trash. It's an easy change, but once you start doing it, you'll wonder why you didn't always cook this way. I also share the version of Tuscan soup that I make for my family all the time but have never actually written down. Instead of potatoes, I use farro, which adds a hearty texture that almost mimics the Italian sausage so every bite is extra delicious.

I grew up making these in my parents' deli, and the secret to a great Reuben is simple: warm up the filling, dry out the kraut, and lightly toast the inside of the bread so it never turns soggy.

This dish became a house favorite before it ever had a name. In this episode, I'm sharing the story behind it and why I'm finally writing it down after years of making it from memory. I talk about how the idea started with something Marty ate constantly during a summer in Israel and how he asked me to recreate it at home. From there, it blended with one specific version of pan con tomate that we fell in love with in Barcelona, and over time it evolved into something somewhere in between that I call Tomato Water Salad.   This is part of a bigger trend for me right now, paying attention to the things that I make without a written recipe and capturing them so other people can cook them too, especially my teenagers as they learn their way around the kitchen. Tomato Water Salad is simple, fresh, deeply tomato-forward, and still the best tomato dish I make to this day.

No guest this week. Just me in my kitchen. My interview laptop is still broken, so instead of talking to someone else, I'm talking to you. In this episode, I share the meal I make all the time but have never written down. It's not on my sites. There's no official recipe. It's just something I do when I want a treat of a dinner and don't feel like overthinking it. It's a pan-fried chuck eye steak on a bed of garlicky salad, and the salad gets tossed with the steak juices right from the pan. That's basically the whole trick. It's simple, really good, and exactly the kind of thing I make for just me or for me and Marty. I also talk a bit about the random kitchen wisdom that sticks with you, like how my grandmother always kept canned milk around, what I realized about shelf-stable milk when I was living in Belgium, and why UHT or evaporated milk just works better for me right now. It's a very me-centered episode. A little rambling, a little practical, and all about making dinner in a way that fits real life. Links:This is not the exact salad I make, but it's sort of close. I actually put red wine vinegar and a bit of olive oil in a bowl, use a rasp (micro plane) to grate in a clove of garlic, whisk, add spring mix, toss, taste, add more vinegar or more oil or more spring mix, toss, add coarse kosher salt, toss, taste. This is how I cook chuck eye steaks, sort of. I don't put butter in the skillet. Instead, I put grapeseed oil on the steaks themselves. I also try to season the steaks with kosher salt and a good sprinkle of garlic powder at least an hour before cooking them. If it's less than an hour, I skip the garlic powder because it won't have time to hydrate and tends to burn.
