Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Fried Sage

Many recipes play up the sweet taste of this root vegetable by adding sugar, but this recipe highlights the sweet potato’s savory side with sage. While dried sage could easily overpower this dish, fried fresh sage is entirely another story—it imparts a beguiling, savory grace note.

Chicken Tagine with Olives and Preserved Lemons

We've heard and read much about the health benefits conferred by a variety of "super" foods such as blueberries, pomegranates, spinach and tomatoes. It’s no coincidence that these foods are vibrantly colored. The beneficial antioxidant compounds they contain are actually found in the pigment component of these fruits and vegetables.

    Holiday Heartburn

    What is GERD? When you suffer from heartburn, your stomach acids and enzymes are moving backward from your stomach up into your esophagus. You feel the "burn" because your esophagus does not have the same protective lining as your stomach. This reflux occurs when the "stopper," (called the lower esophageal sphincter) between your stomach and esophagus relaxes momentarily—because it is faulty or injured, or because you put pressure on the stomach by straining, bending over, or eating a large meal.
