Each week we round up our favorite posts and recipes from our friends at The Kitchn.

This week, The Kitchn shows you how to make potato chips in your microwave. It may take a while and you have to watch your chips closely, but it's easy to do and doesn't use any extra oil.

Also on the Kitchn, how to make peanut butter popcorn, all about cheese mites, five ways to prepare tempeh, and vegetables that are better after a frost.

• Fall Snacking Recipe: Peanut Butter Popcorn: Make some sweet, peanut buttery popcorn for a great fall treat!
• The Cheesemonger: You Mite Like to Know: That craggy, rough rind on your cheese may have been made by cheese mites. But that's not a bad thing; cheese mites are coveted among knowledgeable cheese makers, as they are a sign of proper age and elevage.
• Five Ways to Prepare Tempeh: Don't know what to do with these soybean cakes? Here are five suggestions for how to cook it.
• Food Science: Vegetables That Are Even Better After a Frost!: Some summer vegetables from the cabbage family are better after the frost because they produce more sugars in the cold, causing their bitter flavors to taste sweeter. Break out the Brussels sprouts and kale as the weather gets cooler.
