At a fav NYC restaurant, Yakitori Toto, here is one of the meals I crave in the summer. Fresh, homemade udon noodles are chilled and served over a platform of connected ice cubes with shaved scallions and a light soy dipping sauce. We drink a chilled, strong, piquant sake. Plus a few charred skewers of chicken oysters too.
Every tool we make has to do more than one job. Lucinda on where that rule came from, the Super Spoon, and a 100-year-old potato masher called a Beetle.
A dish from Al Forno in Providence that Lucinda never forgot, and finally made from memory twenty years later: creamy double corn polenta with a crater of tomatoes on top.
