Chris’s “Perfect” Margarita

Ingredients

  • 1 lime
  • 2 – 3 ounces tequila blanco
  • .75 ounces orange liqueur (Couintreau is my favorite)
  • .75 ounces simple syrup or Agave
  • Club Soda / Seltzer
  • Ice
  • Salt (if you’re so inclined)

Directions

  1. Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake until the outside of the shaker gets frosty
  2. Strain into rocks glass over ice (with a salted rim!)
  3. Add a splash of soda
  4. Enjoy (responsibly) preferably in a hammock whilst barefoot

Supremely Creamy Hummus

From Leah Koenig’s Modern Jewish Cooking
Serves 8

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil + extra for a heavy drizzle at the end
  • 1 large garlic clove, roughly chopped
  • 3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • Kosher salt
  • 2 (two) 15.5oz cans chickpeas drained, with liquid reserved
  • Za’atar or paprika for sprinkling

Directions

  1. Combine the tahini, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and 2 tsp salt in a food processor and purée until slick and smooth.
  2. Add the chickpeas and continue processing, using a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary, until a chunky paste forms, about 1 minute. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in 1/3 to 1/2 cup/ 80 to 120 ml of the reserved chickpea liquid to loosen the hummus. Continue processing until the hummus becomes whipped and very creamy, 2 to 3 minutes. When in doubt, keep blending for extra creaminess. Taste and add more lemon juice or salt, if desired.
  3. Serve the hummus at room temperature drizzled with heavy pour of olive oil and sprinkled with za’atar or paprika. Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 week.

Burrata, Peach, and Basil

Ingredients

  • 1 fresh, ripe yellow or white peach, washed
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 6 to 8 basil leaves, torn if large
  • 6 ounces burrata
  • sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Directions

  1. Slice open the peach, remove the stone, and tear or cut it into large pieces. Place the peach in a bowl, drizzle with oil, and season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Stir in the basil.
  2. Tear the burrata into large pieces, arrange on a serving plate, and spoon the peach mixture on top. Let stand for 10 minutes, then serve.
