This month’s recipe is a special request from our followers on Instagram! We were asked to make Tartiflette on our Lacanche range, and so we did! It gave us the opportunity to try out the signature oval gratin from Falk Copperware.
Penne Arrabiata
. Penne Arrabiata is a popular Italian pasta dish that has become a favorite in many parts of the world. The dish is characterized by its spicy tomato sauce, which gives it a fiery kick that is sure to awaken your taste buds. The name “Arrabiata” comes from the Italian word “arrabbiare,” which means “to anger” or “to make angry.” When cooking for a large number of people, marinara sauce is usually the popular choice. Even so, it’s worth branching out to other options for a more elevated dining experience. Arrabiata sauce has a more sophisticated flavor profile and is just as easy!
Seared Steak
. “Searing is Scientific!” With any scientific endeavor, the proper tools are essential for success. Welcome to this month’s blog post! Today, we are searing a Ribeye steak and serving it with a side of roasted potatoes and broccolini. We’ll also talk about the Maillard reaction, and how it is responsible for creating the complex flavors, aromas, and textures associated with many cooked foods.

When talking with her, you get the sense Nicole’s commitment to organic experiences has played a significant role in shaping her identity. She is very in the moment; being lost in conversation with her is a joy. She has so many stories to tell, and she tells them quite well.

Measure of Her Powers
A chat with Jackie Kai Ellis
In my line of work I get to visit amazing people, their gastronomical world, passions, homes, and of course their Lacanche experience.
Recently I traveled to France to meet writer, pastry chef, and designer Jackie Kai Ellis at her Parisian home. After reading her touching memoir and following her beautiful feeds on Instagram, I was excited to meet her in person. On a sunny afternoon we gathered in her kitchen for some cooking, chatting, and eating her exceptional pasta dish on the balcony.
Ackerman Heritage House
The absolutely stunning Ackerman Heritage House in the Napa Valley was built in 1888 in downtown Napa by famous Bay Area Architect Luther Turton.
