I am a recent fan and have been reading every entry with amazement. And now I am about to make the Chocolate & Pear cake but I am not too sure how much a stick of butter is? Are you able to let me know what this would be in g? Thank you

J & T – Can I please make a reservation at Tristan’s restaurant now? You always manage to make me smile. Thank you.

Oh Ashley, THANK YOU for posting Tristan’s recipes! We both are smiling and we will try the cake with caramel sauce! Yum! The chicken chili looks wonderful too. Have you tried the chili with a little beer cooked in it, topped off with a mountain of melting cheese and sour cream? In the winter we need lots of emotional foods here to off-set the cold, snowy days!

Tristan is working on a new recipe he read about. It is venison roast with garlic and lavender stuffed in slits and dry roasted in the oven. Since we have lavender that doesn’t die out in the winter, he wanted to cook with it. We’ll let you know how that works!

Thank you and Gabe for sharing so much of your family with our family.

Wishing you a warm and happy winter!
Your Biggest Fans in Ohio!
Tristan and Janice

The beet pasta is sooo good – and so delicious. It has earned a spot in my “best recipes” notebook. Yum! 🙂

This sounds exactly like my husband and me! I’ve always been an adventurous eater. The hubby? Not so much. Does that deter me from cooking creative, exotic, awesome things that I feel like cooking, and serving it to him for dinner? Nope. He’s such a trouper, despite the questionable looks and “icky” veggies pushed to the side of his plate. Love that guy!

“wince in sheer agony if his sandwich has come in contact with mayonnaise.” I think I just died. Thank god I’m not alone.

I love how candid your posts are! It’s funny how you have to compromise on food when you’re married! My husband doesn’t like mushrooms…and it’s the saddest thing ever. So whenever I go out to eat without him, I BINGE on mushrooms. His deal is steak tartare!

More for me! I used to hate beets because my only interaction with them was the canned variety or poorly roasted ones. After eating them at some great restaurants and in season I love them now and they are one of my fav’s! Tell Gabe we will take him out the next time he in the Bay Area for some great Beets and Tomatoes (if they are in season).

Oh, I grinned while reading this post! I married a man with highly sensitive tastebuds and am still trying, after 17 years, to avoid feeling frustrated. I want to experience all varieties of foods, while he prefers to eat the same, safe dishes. It must be so disconcerting for him to live with someone like me. Poor dear.
These recipes look and sound delicious. I think the color of the beet sauce would frighten him right out of his socks, though.

The chocolate pear cake looks divine! I am so going to have to try this.

I’m lucky that my boyfriend has a broad palette and is willing to try anything. It’s really great when I want to try out new recipes on him. The only no go zone for him is asparagus…which I can live with.

The pasta sounds so good and really creative! I just got some Himalayan pink salt, HimalaSalt, from Sustainable Sourcing https://secure.sustainablesourcing.com and I think I’ll try it out in this recipe. Thanks for sharing!

I think we should have a beet party. Randy doesn’t like them either and I LOVE them. I give him a lot of credit though, his “don’t like” list has gotten significantly shorter in the years we have been together. Both recipes look divine!

This post makes me smile. I have had beets that taste like dirt, yes indeed. I usually enjoy beets, but not the ones that taste like dirt. 🙂 Mark won’t touch beets, cucumbers, or pears, so unforutunalely these recipes won’t be breaking out at my house. And if I must add, walnuts are the last nut I will try. My mother OD’d me on them as a child and I don’t fancy them now…Loving the clips and pics I see from Gabe!
