I don’t know about you, but I have long anticipated this moment: the comprehensive SFCC RECIPE INDEX!! It’s become a bit willy-nilly keeping track of all the recipes I’ve published (more that 100!) since this newsletter’s debut over two years ago. So I dedicated a block of time early into the year to create this super handy - and alphabetically organized - resource: it contains all the links to bring you straight to delicious recipes for every occasion, every season, and every meal. The links are all clickable, as are the images (which will guide you to the related recipe). Then, just scroll down to access the recipe. I’ll be swapping in new photos now and then, in hopes to draw you deeper into this impressive archive—especially you newer subscribers, who may not know what you’ve been missing!

This recipe index is essentially a living cookbook. As such it will be updated regularly with all the new work I produce. Come here if you’re looking for that shrimp + corn pasta salad, or the mushroom escabeche that can go on everything, or the summer-perfect brick-grilled spatchcock chicken. Every single one of them is right here. I hope it helps you thrive, and makes cooking even easier.

There are *so many exciting dishes* to fall in love with here. As I created this catalogue, revisiting older recipes, it brought back many fond memories and renewed excitement - I’ve bookmarked a bunch that I’d lost track of (and will be making time to return to!). This is the repository for anything you may have missed, or if you haven’t subscribed since the early days. A reminder that while various recipes are free to all subscribers when they’re first released, all recipes go behind a paywall after 3 months. These posts represent years of work and this is the best means I’ve found to keep producing for you, cover the cost of ingredients, and sometimes, even the time it takes to develop and write it all… breaking even is essential to keep the lights on!

I hope this index supplies you with a bounty of wonderful food for you and your family, all year ‘round. If there are any recipes that have become your own repertoire favorites, let me know in the comments. :)
