🙌While playing around with Scallop Crudo recipe testing at Mom’s house tonight, I turned the rest of the black seabass into something cozy and delicious.

Seabass in Mustard-Caper Leek Sauce — made with leftover corn, basil, and tomato salad, all brought together in a mustard, white wine, caper, and leek sauce.

On the side, Morning Glory Farm zucchini sticks—roasted until tender and finished with a sprinkle of Parmesan Reggiano. A perfect late-summer plate, straight from the garden and sea. 🌿🐟🍅

✨ Back up at the farm in New Hampshire for a couple of nights, cooking on the oven I first learned on — a 1960s Magic Chef that still works like a charm. ✨

Absolutely loved bringing Martha’s Vineyard ingredients home, where it all began, and inviting my mother over to the house tonight for a nice dinner. A full circle moment, cooking again where it all started.

Pan-seared Black Sea Bass and Scallops with a Mustard Shallot Sauce, served over Morning Glory Farm Zucchini. Fresh, simple, and from the heart. 💛

✨ A sweet surprise in Fairfield, Connecticut! At The Beehive, my goddaughter Elizabeth and her boyfriend James walked in and spotted Cooking on the Vineyard by Julia Blanter — and flipped right to page 204, where The Chappy Kitchen is featured! 🙌

Clearly, Elizabeth is proud of me, and my son Burke couldn’t resist showing me off with his comment too. Fun to see the cookbook pop up in another bookstore and know people all over the country are discovering Martha’s Vineyard’s artisan cooks, stories, and recipes come to life.

✨ Successful drop-off today! Uncle Neil’s Mustard made its way to Siena Farms at the Boston Public Market 🌿🧡 Always so special to see their beautiful farm share boxes in action.

Made it to both locations — downtown and the South End — before catching the freight boat 🚢 … almost home!

🚢 Crossing with a purpose! On today’s Steamship Authority ride, I was delivering Uncle Neil’s Mustard to our friends at Siena Farms on Waltham Street in Boston. (If you haven’t looked them up yet, they’re an incredible family farm bringing the best of New England produce into the city 🌱).

As I always do, I got in my laps—3 miles, port to port—when I bumped into Alex Powers on deck. She asked if I had a copy of The Martha’s Vineyard Cookbook by Julia Blanter, which I was so honored to be published in earlier this year. Alex wanted to bring it to her friends up in Maine as the perfect hostess gift.

Luckily, I had one with me! 📖 And to make it even sweeter, I was able to send her off with both a copy of the cookbook and a jar of Uncle Neil’s Mustard I had been photographing during the crossing. A true Vineyard-to-Maine connection, with mustard and memories sailing right across the Sound. 🌊💛

🎉🐴 This weekend we saddled up for a very special rodeo-themed birthday! One lucky lady celebrated her 60th surrounded by family, friends, and of course plenty of delicious deliciousness.

From overflowing cheese + charcuterie boards to vibrant veggie platters, dips, spreads, and sweet bites — we made sure both the two-legged AND four-legged guests had a reason to celebrate. 🤠✨

Here’s to another memorable Chappy Kitchen gathering filled with joy, laughter, and plenty of flavor!

Vineyard Scallop Fettuccine with Mascarpone Mustard Corn Sauce

From sea to plate in the most delicious way. These unbelievable scallops came straight off the Menemsha Rose—my favorite fishing vessel delivering the freshest catch on Martha’s Vineyard. Thanks to the incredible work of , my go-to nonprofit to support, I get to cook with the very best.

Tonight’s creativity turned into a plateful of joy:
• Gluten‑free fettuccine pasta from The Maker Pasta Shop & Café in Vineyard Haven—they let you “make it gluten free by substituting GF fettuccine”  
• Soigné’s sweet summer corn salad folded into a luscious mascarpone + Uncle Neil’s mustard sauce
• Perfectly seared scallops to top it all off

When cooking, creating, and even getting “stuck” leads to this kind of dinner… I’ll take it every time. 🌊🍝✨

🌿🐟Seared Fluke with Tarragon Corn Salad & Parmesan-Herb Zucchini Duo 🌿🐟
When your zucchini rings spark a little creative mischief, you end up with something magical… The centers reminded me of tater tots, so I tossed them in a parmesan-herb mix and baked them to golden perfection. Paired with our sweet tarragon corn, juicy tomato & feta salad, and the freshest local fluke—this dish is pure island on a plate. All herbs, veggies, and fish sourced right here on our beloved island. You can’t get more farm-to-table than this.

📸 Today’s kitchen distraction…
When procrastination leads to perfection: Crispy Calamari perched on an Herb-Parmesan Zucchini Ring.

The Chappy Kitchen harvested the zucchinis right here on Chappy 🌱, and the squid came fresh from our amazing friends at 🦑. Locally sourced, island proud, and oh-so-delicious.

Food that tastes extraordinary is made with love and passion.

Founded by Katherine (Katie) Kidder in 2015, The Chappy Kitchen brings good food to you. Our farm fresh fare celebrates the bounty of local farms, access to fresh seafood and poultry, and the joy that can only come from a home-cooked gourmet meal.

Growing up on a farm in Keene, New Hampshire, Katie knew from an early age that local and fresh were always the best. She built her culinary chops working alongside her mom, cooking, jarring, canning and preserving the fresh flavors, and alongside her dad caring for the animals from her family's farm. With a bounty of gardens and bevy of farm animals around her during childhood, it only made sense that she would make food her career.

Shortly after feeding her whole neighborhood freshly made meals from her grill during the recovery from Hurricane Sandy, the concept of delivering fresh food to people’s homes was born.

The Chappy Kitchen allows residents and visitors to Chappaquiddick to enjoy local fare at home or on the beach. We change our menus weekly to celebrate the season’s best. Whether you want to come home from a day at the beach to a ready-made gourmet dinner or enjoy a beachside picnic during the day, The Chappy Kitchen will deliver good food to you, expertly prepared and ready for you to enjoy. Our gourmet delivery service is the hassle free way to enjoy the freshest fare the island has to offer.
