"I met Suzy in 1999, when I moved to New York after college and she had just relocated from Portland, Oregon. We ended up as roommates in Brooklyn, and it was in that apartment in Fort Greene that we discovered the joys of cooking together on Sundays. Suzy's mom, Sally, passed this recipe down to her and, in turn, Suzy taught it to me. We still make it together to this day, nearly twenty years later...."
