Good morning. Tejal Rao has an thrilling piece of restaurant criticism in The Occasions this week, about discovering nice cioppino in San Francisco, a metropolis so awash within the seafood stew that it will possibly typically seem cliché.
Naturally, there’s a showstopper of a recipe (above) to accompany her phrases, a cioppino to make the case for cioppino forevermore. And if the celebrities align appropriately, I’m hoping 1000’s and 1000’s of you’ll make it for Mom’s Day lunch on Sunday.
The recipe’s tailored from the one at Anchor Oyster Bar within the coronary heart of the Castro neighborhood, with a long-simmered marinara sauce thinned out with clam juice after which full of no matter glorious seafood you may procure. (That mentioned, Dungeness crab within the shell is necessary, not less than in accordance with Roseann Grimm, the chef and proprietor of the restaurant.) I’ll be sincere: It’s a good quantity of labor. However in the event you put in just a few hours on Saturday, mother might be thrilled on Sunday, and also you’ll reap the rewards for that.
Discover different Mom’s Day recipe concepts right here and right here. However you may’t go flawed with a Dutch child, or buttermilk pancakes, eggs Benedict or a quiche Lorraine. Or crispy hash browns and eggs!
In fact, some mothers are in all probability like mine, who fiercely decried the vacation as an instrument of the flower-industrial advanced. For them, prepare dinner one thing rather less on-the-nose than brunch. There’s that cioppino, for example! Or Tajín grilled hen, wherein the spice mixture of chiles and lime seasons a garlicky chipotle glaze that has a touch of sweetness. That glaze chars fantastically over boneless, skinless hen thighs for a straightforward weekend win. (It will work properly with grilled shrimp or tofu, too.) Make some yellow rice to go together with it, and perhaps a pot of no-recipe beans.
And you may all the time bake: a strawberry scone loaf; baked carrot cake doughnuts; a hummingbird cake.

Now, it’s nothing to do with sourdough or red-braised pork, however my colleague Willy Staley’s Occasions assessment of Amy Odell’s new biography of Anna Wintour is required studying. It is going to be on the examination. (An anecdote he recounts about how trend editors typically “intentionally misattribute make-up that was utilized in a trend unfold to a devoted advertiser, to maintain them blissful,” jogged my memory of one thing I noticed throughout my very own time in shiny magazines: fragrance credit on trend pictures.)
