Mixed Review: Trader Joe's Beer Bread
[Photographs: Lucy Baker] After the pomp and circumstance of Thanksgiving—the colossal turkey, the countless pies, the fancy china that must be hand-washed—it's nice to enjoy a relaxed meal or two in front of the TV with a plate on your lap and your feet on the coffee table. What could be better than watching the game with a big bowl of chili, or a pile of nachos smothered in seven-layer dip? All that spicy beef and gooey cheese calls for a hearty bread for sopping, crumbling, and wiping plates clean, so this week I tested out Trader Joe's Beer Bread Mix ($1.99). It's the stuff of Homer Simpson's dreams. The first step was choosing the right beer. I recalled...Weekend Cook and Tell Round Up: Your Bread
Focaccia by ElizabethS. [Photograph: The Manhattan Food Project] For last week's Weekend Cook and Tell we challenged all of you to break out the yeast and flour and try your hand at bread baking. Who knew that so many of you are such accomplished bakers? Here are some of our favorite fresh-baked responses: ElizabethS made good use of her free time by attempting to replicate the perfect focaccia she ate on her Italian honeymoon. This upside-down tomato basil bread was avaryne's first attempt at bread-baking and the results were sinfully delicious. hmw0029 made a light oat bread with pumpkin puree and sunflower seeds for the week's sandwiches....Bread Shoes

Note: Our own Erin Zimmer just returned from ten days eating and drinking her way around Greece and will be sharing her adventures with us all week as Snapshots from Greece. —Ed. I didn't spot a single hot dog cart in Thessaloniki, but there were a few umbrella-shaded vendors selling koulouri, or biscuit-like rings covered in sesame seeds. They are bagel-shaped, or maybe bagels are koulouri-shaped, considering these date back to the Byzantine era. Unlike bagels, they yield more of a crunch than a chew, along the lines of biscotti....Serious Cheese: Grilled Cheese, Georgian Style
Photograph from Goulven Champenois on Flickr The combination of crusty dough and melted cheese has spawned some of the greatest foods in the world. Pizza and grilled cheese come first to mind for many Americans, but the United States can hardly claim ownership. Indeed, thousands of miles across the world, in a land wedged between the Black Sea to the west and the Caspian Sea to the east, the bread-and-cheese meme has perhaps reached its apex in the form of the Georgian food khachapuri—literally, "cheese bread."...Bread Baking, In Pictures
