Green (immature) cow peas "shakshuka", with plenty of garlic, some onion and very lightly cooked tomatoes. Flavored with cumin, lots of sumac, a little chili, lemon zest, a touch of anise and coriander. Eggs cooked very soft and served over labneh, with a warm pita to soak the juices as they mix with the cheese.

One of the (very few) spoils of a long business trip is that you might have a "free" weekend to enjoy Tokyo. It has been 13 years since I studied in Japan and in my free day I have to first pay homage to my spiritual home Kyoto and have a Kansai institution: Tenkaippin's Kotteri Ramen. An ultrathick chicken broth with extra-chewy noodles and all the works. And two draft beers at 2 in the afternoon. God, how I have missed this ...

Roasted butternut squash and sweet potato ravioli.
Filling flavored with toasted almonds, nutmeg, black pepper, and a little amaretto.

Sauced in browned butter, with crisp fried sage, roasted hazelnuts and a little parmesan.

 

 

Please put me on the list of people who want to have dinner at your house. That is absolutely gorgeous. And the cow pea shakshuka over labneh was inspired!

Perhaps we could make a deal. @kayb could have the cow peas and I would take care of everything else.
