Vernon Street Kitchen

Some things never go out of style. Take the caprese, for example. It's simplicity embodies Italian food beautifully. While you can play around with endless variations, the ingredients must be fresh and of high quality. Try incorporating fresh summer berries and mint, or pistachios and crispy pancetta! ... ... ... #caprese #mozzarella #italian #italianfood #simple #quality #summer #salad #healthyeating #summerrecipes #saladrecipe #healthyrecipe #sanfrancisco #california #italy

Posting admittedly has been at a standstill around here lately. Partially because I've been training a new full time sous chef, but also because of the state of the world. On May 25th, George Floyd was murdered by the Minneapolis police. Since then, I haven't had the mental energy to post some cute springtime recipes to snack on. As we all continue to grow and learn (hopefully!) I wanted to express that Vernon Street Kitchen proudly supports the Black Lives Matter movement. A...s complicated as the situation is, it really boils down to what is right, or what is wrong. The culinary correlation, is that training a sous chef is more than just the food, it's about teaching the basics properly so that core values are implemented every single time. Tall task, but so incredibly neccesary when times are tough. #blacklivesmatter #bebetter #dobetter @ San Francisco, California

Marin Sunday Market up in San Rafael. Rolling into store fruit season (along with the rekindling of the debate on how to pronounce "apricot"). Tons of beautiful spring greens and herbs. Strawberries on strawberries on strawberries. Lucious @thehummusguy lemon hummus. @zolocoffee Farmhouse Colombian dark roast. And one beautifully marbled, thick cut, acorn fed pork loin from @stonerootfieldandsea. To be continued...
