Once upon a time, I gathered snails and cooked up escargots from scratch. In honor of yesterday being National Escargot Day (what? you didn't celebrate?), we dug into our archives to share my account of that slimy adventure. If it inspires you to follow in my footsteps, be sure to share the results with us—#ediblecommunities on Instagram will get our attention.
I'll be setting aside some time this weekend to happily reacquaint myself with Melissa Clark's Dinner: Changing the Game—it's the June selection for our Cookbook Club, and I want to get a headstart on the fun. I have my eye on the garlicky calamari and the farro salad, plus the Japanese omelet, which I'm thinking would make a tasty brunch. Get your copy here to join in.
For those of you with a three-day weekend ahead, I hope it's everything you planned it would be. If that means farmers market visits and fresh spring produce and delicious meals with people you love, all the better.
