Hello.

Thanks for stopping by. I’m a freelance food writer and recipe developer based in Maine. My first solo cookbook, Repertoire: All The Recipes You Need, was published by Little, Brown in Spring 2017 (order it now!), and I write a bimonthly column by the same name for The San Francisco Chronicle.

I’ve coauthored eight cookbooks, including Baking at the 20th Century Cafe, with Michelle Polzine (Artisan, 2020), The Full Plate (Little, Brown, 2020), with Ayesha Curry, Home Grown: Cooking From My New England Roots (Artisan, 2017), with chef Matt Jennings, Vietnamese Home Food (Ten Speed Press, 2012), with Charles Phan, chef/owner of the Slanted Door, which won a 2013 IACP award in the Chef and Restaurant category; Tartine Book 3 (Chronicle, 2013), with Tartine owner Chad Robertson, Sausage Making (Chronicle 2014), with butcher Ryan Farr, and Home Cooked (Ten Speed Press, 2016), with Anya Fernald. I’m also the author of Short Stack Editions Volume 10: Corn.

My work has also been featured in The New York Times, Sunset magazine, Martha Stewart Living, Rachael Ray Every Day and various other publications and was included in the Best Food Writing Anthology (twice!). Potatoes are my desert island food.
