About

Well hello there, welcome to 84th & 3rd — it’s lovely to meet you!

As you’re here instead of over having cake I’m guessing that you’d like to know something about me, or perhaps something about what you can find on the site, so let’s jump straight in.

84th & 3rd

My passports (yep, multiple) say Jennifer Jenner, but you can call me JJ. I’m a food photographer, food and prop stylist, commercial recipe developer, and videographer. Originally from the east coast of the US, I lived in Sydney, Australia for nearly 20 years, and am currently based in Los Angeles, California.

I shoot, style and develop recipes for a wide variety of clients including FMCG brands, chefs, restaurants, nutritionists, cookbooks and magazines, and, thanks to over a decade in advertising strategy, I still provide social media consultant services on a limited basis. You can see my non-blog related work / professional portfolio over here if you’re interested. I also used  to make pottery, yes, really.

But I know you’re really here for the food — and let’s be honest, so am I! Above all else I’m passionate about real, unprocessed food. Growing up in an Italian family with a mother who had a “throw it all in a pot” approach to dinner has instilled in me a creative and experimental approach to cooking. I embrace a concept of substitution over sacrifice and truly believe that food should be fun, healthy does not mean boring and brunch is always a good idea.

Food inspires me, really. I think in recipes, discuss over breakfast what to eat for lunch, and have been known to detour miles out of the way for specific dishes. I’m pescatarian and dairy-free because I physically feel better eating that way. And while I’m not gluten-free, or vegan I cook in those styles quite a bit (it’s delicious and a far more interesting challenge).

A few side notes

  • Tea always, green if possible.
  • Coffee occasionally (unless I’m in Italy or Japan, then every day), and always black
  • Veg-aquarian (or pescatarian if you must) — it’s a texture and health thing, not an ethical choice, so while I don’t eat meat I do cook with it (and I try to source it from ethical producers)
  • Perpetual ingredient reader — food should be grown by farmers not chemists
  • Chocolate — 7 times out of 10, then lemon, almost never caramel
  • Yoga — vinyasa flow to be exact
  • No, you can’t call me Jenny
  • Worrisome addictions include travel, cookbooks, brunch, cake and vintage dishes

Where did the name 84th & 3rd come from?

84th & 3rd is an ordinary corner, not particularly remarkable, in the most remarkable city in the world. We lived only meters from that corner on the Upper East Side of NYC and it was there that a seed was planted, a dream of doing something that I love and being able to share it with others. 84thand3rd.com is that something.

What’s your order? 🍳 … When the middle litt What’s your order? 🍳
…
When the middle little insisted on buying quail eggs over Christmas, but due to allll the other food we never cooked them, I simply couldn’t let the little guys go to waste. 
🥚
Could I have made one dish? Of course. Did I instead prepare quail eggs four ways, bake mini loaves of brioche, make mini waffles, dig through the prop closet for the smallest dishes, and set up an entire table? Of course I did. 
💥
Swipe to the end for reference on the size of the eggs and loaf.

My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dou My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dough from a couple weeks ago and voiced by the middle little (who is about as different from her younger sister as you can get!) 💥.
🍕
Sometimes this combo gets prawns too 🍤. Most of the time I don’t bother mixing the ingredients in a bowl and just layer them on top. The cheese is a hard goat cheese (because I can’t do 🐄). The ‘spices’ 🌱 is Sicilian oregano. The measurements are random at best - a handful of this, a splash of that. 
🍕
If you have a fave veggie or seafood pizza combo I’d love to hear it. Because as Ms.S says, voila, yummy yummy pizza!
Flowers for your Friday, that is all.

Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy o Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy of my go-to Half-Spelt, Sourdough Discard Pizza Dough recipe 🍕 (the one I’ve been teasing for years), AND a new voiceover by little Ms Marmalade herself 👧🏼.
☀️ I mean, I’m not saying the sound on this video will brighten up your day by an infinite amount, but I’m not, not, saying that either ✨. 
—-
The full recipe with all the info is over on my site (⛓ in profile and all that jazz), along with a longer version of the video. Because a 5yo singing - SINGING - about rolling dough into balls is ah-mazing. 
—-
Ingredients, for those wondering:
* whole spelt flour
* white 00 pizza flour
* water
* sourdough starter discard
* active dry yeast
* kosher salt
* millet flour (for shaping)
⏲ All the times and weights are in that aforementioned post - plus opts to bake right away vs letting it all ferment for a day or two... There’s also a list of equipment I use, and my personal flour and pizza oven faves. Now go have a pizza party! 🍕🎉
Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means it’s about time I (finally) shared this 🍗 🍇🍊 image from a test shoot collab well over a year ago 🙈. I actually made these Cornish Hens for Christmas last year too and they’ll be on the menu again this year. It’s a perfect holiday feast solution for a small group with only a few meat eaters, but also if you simply can’t be bothered to tackle a turkey!

There seems to be a common thread this year of people asking in stories if it’s ok to start decorating for 🎄 already - my answer, every time, is ‘the world is on fire, time has no meaning, go for your life’. Am I wrong? (I’m not, haha) I may even put up a tree here more than 3 days before (I do keep it up until Easter though, so who knows 😜). Are you getting festive already or do you have hard and fast rules about these things?
Oooh, chocolate chip cookies! 🍪 💥 Your favou Oooh, chocolate chip cookies! 🍪
💥
Your favourite almost 6yo is back again, and this time it’s cookies. They’re vegan and gluten-free but that’s beside the point really, they’ll be ready to bake in less time than it takes to preheat the oven, and gone the second they cool. For a peek into our VO ‘process’ 😆 hold out for the end 🔈 - the outtakes we’re too good to not include.
🍪
For those wondering what everything is:
- 2 c almond meal
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla 
- 1/2 c choc chips or chopped choc
- 180C/355F ~12 min
⚡️ Happy baking, kids! ⚡️
Lemon Marmalade 🍋 made with lemons from our tre Lemon Marmalade 🍋 made with lemons from our tree and sweet limes from my cousin’s tree, narrated by the littlest little niece (5 1/2) who is apparently a natural at voiceovers - you’re going to want to put the sound on for this one 🤣😍.
-
Basically 4 cups each chopped lemon, white sugar, water - and if there’s any interest in an actual recipe I’ll even do a post on le neglected blawg.

Hope this brings a bit of sunshine to your day ☀️🍋🥰 (let me know what your favourite part is - mine is ‘put it in the ooooveenn??’)~ xx JJ
Me: I should do some kind of 2021 wrap up reel as Me: I should do some kind of 2021 wrap up reel as my first post of the year, or maybe some celebratory New Years thing from the archives...

Also me: Look! I put stuff on toast, it was delicious, you should make it!

For those keeping score: a combo vaguely inspired by cilbir turkish eggs, but lazier and dairy free, and on toast 🤷🏼‍♀️. Homemade spelt sourdough, vegan (cashew) yoghurt, jammy (7min) eggs, chilli crisp, toasted sesame seeds, kosher salt, coffee. 

And for the visual but not literal people: 🍞🍦🥚🌶🍂☕️

...now I think this is where I ask you to share this post! And save it for later! And inquire what’s on your plate! Does that sound right?! Great! If you need me I’ll be eating toast (and playing today’s Wordle 😆) and shooting client videos 📹. Have a good one kids, stay safe. x~JJ.
