Fortune awaits
A peek into the future
Hi!
We’re shooting 4 new episodes of Carla’s Cooking Show this week, including 2 grilling recipes. These will be coming round the mountain when they come (weeks, not months), and I guess I’m excited about them, because here’s some pics.
Summer is my season and I live for it.
1.) RANDOM SANDO
Strong bánh mì energy casting beauty over this sandwich, which couldn’t be more different than what I originally envisioned. But it’s so grubby and good.
2.) PESTO RATIO 101
The ultimate, choose-your-own-adventure, pesto-is-a-state-of-mind master recipe for your dream sauce. Working on a rhyming song to help us all memorize the formula.
GRILLED SALMON FOR ALL
Child said this was the best salmon I’ve ever made, so there’s that.
CORN SALAD THAT WANTS TO BE SCOOPED
The best way to grill corn is also the easiest way. I’ll explain!
If there are any other recipes or ideas you’d like to see me make, sound off in the comments! I’m listening.

OK this is a stretch but I'd love to see you take on tavern-style thin crust pizza. It's beloved in Chicago (the TRUE Chicago pizza, not deep dish) and I would be so curious to hear and eat your take on it. It's much less filling than the bread-heavy deep dish, and lends itself well to any topping and sauce combo. Your sheet pan pizza recipe you did for Bon Appetit is great and I bet this would be cool too. Trying to crack the code of something thin, super crispy, and easy to do at home feels like the key.

I would love to see a great bbq pulled pork
