The Onion Papers are agglomerations and digressions from things I cook, eat, read and observe — a celebration of forms and imagination, flexing language — a recipe book and almanac in drafting.
Here is what you can expect from The Onion Papers:
TOP Kneading Club: annotated recipes, sent on Mondays. Topics include reading, writing, foraging and how bodies and the land are connected.
TOP Stories: dispatched to all subscribers every other Thursday. Topics and forms vary with my mood and the seasons.
TOP Peels: a monthly entry about things I’ve consumed and noticed.
TOP Pantry: an index of all the Onion Papers recipes and reading lists. The occasion to think and cook together.
Some examples from my newsletter include The Humble Dough, Cucina Pantesca, Three Tokens of Time, and In Praise of Eating in Bed.
I also like to write about places such as the woods and foraging, Vendée, Paris, Livorno or Various Ends of the World.
