We will choose a delivery rhythm that fits your household, your schedule, and mine. It can shift as your needs change.

I send your proposed menu about five to seven days ahead. You can request changes before the 72-hour menu cutoff, then I handle the shopping and preparation.

Kitchen philosophy / 005

How I think
about the food.

These are the things I care about in the kitchen. They are guideposts, not rules.

01 / Source with care

I love working with seasonal produce. When it makes sense for your preferences, budget, and what is available, I also look for wild-caught seafood, pasture-raised eggs and poultry, and grass-fed meats.

02 / Let time do its work

I am always drawn to the slow stuff: fermentation, roasting, braising, and letting simple ingredients turn into something really satisfying.

03 / Use what we have well

I try to use what I have well and waste less along the way. For clients who eat meat, that can include complete-use and nose-to-tail cooking, always based on what feels right for you.
