Recipes for Gathering

The best tables aren't the most impressive ones. They're the ones people want to stay around.

This is food for passing across the table, making a little more than you need, and inviting someone to pull up a chair. Nothing overly complicated. Nothing that requires the good dishes. Just generous recipes made for sharing.
