  • Shaved Carrot Salad

    Shaved Carrot Salad

    Today we are giving the humble carrot a major glow up. We are in the camp that carrots are mostly a filler ingredient. In a mirepoix for our Short Ribs Bourguignon? Sure. As the star of their own show? Not so much. We wanted to challenge ourselves when brainstorming our Valentine’s Day menu to think…

  • Herby Roasted Potatoes

    Herby Roasted Potatoes

    This is a simple recipe to up your side dish game. When we get overwhelmed in the kitchen, the first thing that falls by the wayside are the side dishes. We love this recipe because once the potatoes are in the oven, you can forget about them for 40 minutes and focus your attention on…

    Beef Short Ribs Bourguignon

    One of our favorite dishes that we had when we went to Paris was Beef Bourguignon at a restaurant called Atlas in the St. Germaine neighborhood. We had it the first night on the trip and haven’t stopped talking about it over a year later. Atlas’s recipe was different than a traditional beef bourguignon recipe…

  • French Onion Soup

    French Onion Soup

    We recently went to dinner at a friend’s house to see him after he had spent time abroad in Paris.

In contrast to our punny Golden Globes…

  • Tofu Peanut Noodles

    Tofu Peanut Noodles

    hen Tuck’s parents first started dating, Tuck’s dad did not eat Asian food. The Neistat girls (Tuck & Tate’s moms) believe they were Asian in another life, that is how much they crave dishes like pho, sushi, and Chinese dumplings on a regular basis. So, you can imagine, that when Tuck’s dad refused to eat…

  • Everything Bagel Coleslaw

    Everything Bagel Coleslaw

    We have a bone to pick with coleslaw. Here’s the deal. We love coleslaw. It’s crunchy, cold and is a really a good condiment/side dish for a lot of different sandwiches. The problem that we have found is that it is often prepared too sweet for us to enjoy. Raisins in coleslaw? No thank you.…

  • Instant Pot BBQ Pulled Pork

    Instant Pot BBQ Pulled Pork

    Pulled pork has become a go-to week night recipe in our house. You can make it in the Crock Pot or Instant Pot and you really get your bang for your buck with this one. We love it because it is pretty hands off and produces a quantity that is large enough for a crowd…
