The Sunday Night Dinner In Astoria: Sardine Dinner

Sardine Dinner

This was grilled sardines, grilled escarole with bagna cauda, Gurhan's eggplant salad, skordalia, salt boiled potatoes (good God, y'all), Turkish flat beans and cucumber salad. Grilled peaches were an improvisation -- hot grill + peaches + homemade vanilla Ice cream makes EVERYONE happy!

Praise For "Forking Fantastic!: Put The Party Back In Dinner Party"

"I love these girls and their tasty, delicious, no-nonsense cooking."
- Jamie Oliver

"This eccentrically enjoyable book by two strange and wonderful women may well be the cookbook America needs right now. Fun, deliberately unintimidating and filled with interesting-even ingenious-recipes, it inspires the non-professional to raise their game-and have a good time while doing so. Both book and authors are clearly good for the world."
- Anthony Bourdain

"We all know that something special happens when a bunch of people sit down together to share a meal and for some reason there are too few family suppers happening. This book will help you relax, remind you to slug some wine for courage, and inspire you to corral some friends and friendly strangers. Like the best hosts, their book is full of great stories and is generous with advice and encouragement. Cheers to more Sunday night suppers-on any day, at any hour!"
- Naomi Pomeroy, Chef/Co-founder, Ripe Family Supper; Chef/Owner, Beast

"For too long, food writing has made actual cooking seem intimidating and complicated. Tamara and Zora's style lead you along with wit and humor and lots of great tips to the point where you will be having great convivial dinner parties with interesting food every week without even having to think about it."
- Sara Jenkins, chef and co-author of Olives and Oranges
