About this Cook
I live with my wife in the Pacific Northwest.
My favorite things to cook
We lean toward relatively simple dishes that for the most part use fresh local, seasonal ingredients. We haunt the farmer's markets around town.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Not too many really. Gradually, over the years, my wife and I sort of set out on our own, developing our interests together. It's been fun. And filling.
My cooking tragedies
Plenty. I manage to reduce my total number of serious screw-ups by steadfastly refusing to bake.

Beef Tenderloin Asturias
We loved this. We found the calabres cheese at the Spanish Table and, while we were there, picked up a couple bottles of Spanish red (a Rioja and a Ribera del Duero). They were both good matches. But we kept gravitating toward the Rioja, which had been too much wine the night before with the Pollo al Ajillo (also on Allrecipes) -- the Ribera was the better match with the chicken.
