The best chickpeas I’ve ever made ✨ These are The best chickpeas I’ve ever made ✨

These are a recipe of just herbs, soffritto, a few palms of salt and a lot of olive oil, but broth comes out richer than any brothy bean I’ve ever made, and I still can’t figure out the secret of it other than time (maybe it’s the parm rind I added WHO KNOWS)

This recipe is adapted from Gianinna’s instructions at @tenutacavasecca and I’ll have my written version on my site later tonight!

Happy 1st Birthday “Justine Cooks” 🥹😭 T Happy 1st Birthday “Justine Cooks” 🥹😭

The cookbook that taught me how to write a da*m good recipe. The book that taught me hard things are worth it. The book that taught me food is made of so much more than a recipe, it’s made of the people who cook it. 

It’s been a joy to watch you all use, transform, and love this book over the past year. It has given me a sense of purpose that I’ve never had before, and know how much I mean it when I say I’m eternally grateful. 

Thank you to @food52 and @foodbaby.bklyn for hosting me a banger of a birthday party. Thank you to @vitalfarms for supporting the fun (and being the best). Thank you to everyone who came and to everyone who cooks from my book. It means more to me than you know.

Can’t wait to see what this book is like when she’s a two year old, I’ve heard the toddler years are horrible. 

Photo cred! @kelseycherry
Small (big??) update, we’re doing it again!

I’m hosting a trip next year with @viarosaitaly, this time to Puglia, and the link for the itinerary and the booking is in my bio.

This past week I had the pleasure (honestly, joy) of traveling with 12 women to Ortigia, Sicily. We covered a lot of ground, but it was the connection and inspiration I felt while surrounded with such like-minded women that was the best part. (If you are reading this girls, ily, and thank you for letting me talk so much about White Lotus). 

Thank you @eminchilli and @viarosaitaly for making our seven nights incredible. Can’t wait for next year ✨
Honeynut Cookies with Pistachio Chocolate and Cran Honeynut Cookies with Pistachio Chocolate and Cranberry Swirl! Because it’s November and if it doesn’t taste like the holidays I simply don’t want it.

Hot Honey Carrot Tart with Rosemary Brown Butter R Hot Honey Carrot Tart with Rosemary Brown Butter Ricotta 😍 It sounds like a lot - but really you only need to brown the butter and the rest of the assembly is easy because of @delmonte’s Hot Honey Carrots #sponsored

The carrots are delicious but they also make this recipe so convenient. You need two cans to cover the tart, and their flavor is perfectly savory-sweet to hold up to the brown butter ricotta. If you need a last minute holiday dish or something to bring to a Friendsgiving, I love this recipe for it 💚

Full recipe is on their site!
