Grilled Yellowfin Tuna
March 10, 2010
"This is definitely a late winter type of dish," says Chris Albrecht, executive chef of Eno Terra in Kingston. "I particularly like the celery root purée that is the base of the dish and the richness of the lentils. We have a wood burning grill, which gives a nice smoky flavor to the tuna, but any grill will get you part of the way there."...

"This dish has gotten a lot of positive feedback from our guests and on on our Facebook page," says Chris Albrecht, executive chef of Eno Terra in Kingston. "It takes a lot of prep time, but the reward is fantastic. You're taking the best of the risotto world and presenting it in a way that is very pleasing and easily shared.

Cheers to Haiti
February 26, 2010
Let’s face it. This “snowicane” sweeping across New Jersey right now is nothing compared to the disastrous earthquake that hit Haiti in January. Last night, at the Benefit for Haiti Relief at the Chandelier Room in the W Hoboken, I was reminded of this. And that’s a good enough reason for me to brave a little snow....

Spinach Pappardelle
February 24, 2010
"It's very easy to put spinach or some other green in the dish in itself, but I chose to incorporate it in the pasta to make it a little more lively and colorful," says Chris Albrecht, executive chef of Eno Terra in Kingston. "The oxtail is very rich. You could substitute short ribs or even beef brisket. Cippolini onions and sunchokes (Jerusalem artichokes) are very high in nutrition and flavor. All the ingredients are available now and even throughout the summer."...
