Ed Levine's Serious Diet, Week 133: Have Peaches Saved My Bacon?
I have been away from Thinner for almost two weeks now, so the potential for serious diet mayhem and backsliding was huge. I've been dreading this morning's weigh-in ever since I left for San Francisco. Why? Because I was terrified that I would give in to the notion that eating for the book would become a compelling excuse to overindulge food-wise. Let me give you an incomplete list of where and what I ate in the Bay Area.Gluten-Free Tuesday: Purslane
It's amazing how many of my meals start on Twitter. Rarely, however, does a food suggestion from Twitter get delivered to my door. The other day, a friend mentioned that his favorite summer salad involved onions, ripe tomatoes, and purslane. I wrote back: "I've never even eaten purslane before. That sounds intriguing." A few days later, he showed up at our house with purslane and the ingredients for a simple salad.Happy National Peach Month
It's August, and in many parts of the country, that means it's peach season. It's hard to resist a basket of sweet, fuzzy fruits at the market (and harder to resist devouring them on the way home). Of course, you can't really improve upon a perfectly juicy peach eaten out of hand, but tell us: What's your favorite way to use ripe peaches?Market Scene: Marietta Square Farmers' Market in Marietta, Georgia (with Recipes!)
I enjoyed strolling through the Marietta Square Farmer's Market in Marietta, Georgia, over the weekend. This market is heavy on artisan products—they had everything from Old World-style baguettes (snagged one), goat cheese (that too), meat pot pies, decorated cupcakes and cakes, and several vendors with jams. Check out the photos and my many original recipes for peach salsa, peach scones, chilled peach soup, chipotle peach jam (can you ever have too many peach recipes?) and fried green tomatoes.Market Scene: City Hall Farmers' Market in Boston
Note: On Mondays, one of our various Market Scene correspondents checks in with what's fresh at farmstands, what's coming up, and what you better get while the gettin's good. This week, our Boston correspondent Penny Cherubino of BostonZest checks in. Photographs by Penny Cherubino Bostonians who live downtown, have more than 25 farmers' markets within easy walking or public transit distance. The City Hall Farmers' Market is one of the most convenient. It's located on the plaza outside Boston City Hall at the Government Center subway station. It's also close to many places that bring people into the heart of the city. Peaches were on my shopping list with a whole new use in mind. Neelam Batra, author of 1000...In Season: Peaches
When ripe, peaches ae rich and heady jewels that are best eaten fresh, but since it can be difficult to polish off the dozen or so that come in a tray, here are some of our best peachalicious recipes--in salads, with pork, or puddingified.Market Scene: Brookline Farmers Market in Brookline, Mass.
Note: Each week, one of our various Market Scene correspondents from around the country checks in with what's fresh at the farmstands in a particular region. Today, Penny Cherubino (Boston Zest) drops by from Boston. The Brookline Farmers Market has been a part of the Coolidge Corner shopping experience for thirty-one years. It's a place of full-flavor shopping with produce, cheese, eggs, ice cream, bakery, specialty foods, beef, turkey, pork, lamb, and fish vendors.

Photo from Big Red Kitchen via Photograzing If you glance at this photo and see a pile of summer peaches, look again. Robin Sue from Big Red Kitchen shares her recipe for miniature peach cakes, which really could pass for the real thing: yellow cake for the base, buttercream frosting for the crease, and colored sugar to create the "fuzz," plus a cinnamon stick stem and peppermint leaf. More photos on her site, here....Peach And Chocolate Chip Pancakes
Bananas, blueberries, and apples are all pretty standard pancake additions, so why not peaches? Olga at Mango & Tomato stirs cubed ripe peaches and mini chocolate chips into her usual pancake batter. It's pretty hard to look at this picture and not smile. We're getting into stone fruit season—any other peachy breakfasts out there?...Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
