As I have mentioned before, I don’t like to make separate dishes for kids; whatever we serve the adults we also serve the kids. They don’t always love it, but we make them try it, and it’s all they get.

I am frequently surprised at the things they like and the things they don’t. (My oldest daughter won’t touch mashed potatoes which I really struggle to understand.) Tonight, my six-year-old son ate what was on his plate and then ate the rest of the fennel. All of it. By itself.

Batali and Paltrow published a cookbook based on the show which was the source of this recipe. Continue reading ‘Fideos con Mariscos’

This was the main course for this weekend’s seafood-focused dinner. It takes some time, but almost everything can be done in advance, making it easy to prepare for guests. The lobster-cream sauce for the orzo was fantastic, and it should go without saying that butter-poached lobster isn’t going to be too bad.
