Video: How to Eat a Chicken Wing
But this technique requires two hands and I prefer to have one clean hand available.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
The first time I had this in Seoul, I was in love with it. It's a perfect antidote to the flu, too.

'Iron Chef America' Competes at the White House in January
It is my understanding that the produce in the White House garden had toxic metal contamination and was inedible. They won't be eating anything from that garden.

Would You Eat This Lobster?
If it comes with some melted butter, I have three words for you: Serve. It. Up.
Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby Renamed 'Hubby Hubby' in Support of Gay Marriage
I'd prefer my food not come with some sort of political agenda. I'll stick with using my ice cream maker.
Bogey's Pizza & Guns, a Combination Pizzeria and Gun Shop
As someone who loves pizza and guns, I'd love to be able to grab a slice while waiting on the pesky background check, which can take a while some days.
What's Your Favorite Food Court Stop?
I love Cold Stone Creamery.
Critic-Turned-Cook Gets a Beer Lesson
I love wine, but I am a home brewer and I absolutely love brewing up some good beer to go with my cooking. Home brewed beer is typically very high quality and relatively affordable. It's quite a bit of work and sanitation, but it is very fun to show off home brewed beer to guests. Tomorrow, I'm throwing a pork shoulder and whole chicken on the smoker and my guests will be finishing the last of my homebrewed summer ale and I'll be debuting my vanilla weizen.
What Fictional Foods Do You Wish Were Real?
Chocolate salty balls
Small, Portable Grills for Urban Cookouts
I have a Weber Q200, which fits into a reasonable sized duffel bag and runs on small propane cannisters. I use mine for tailgating and it easily fits in the trunk of my mid-sized sedan, alongside with a full sized cooler. I would definitely recommend the Q200 or the smaller Q100 for urban barbecuing if you don't have much space and have to store your gear in a closet or a storage space.
I'd much rather dispose of a small aluminum drip pan than have to deal with the mess of disposing charcoal.
Grilling: Basic Barbecue Sauce
Looks almost exactly like the barbecue sauce I make, except mine does have liquid smoke in it as well.
Cook the Book: 'Serious Barbecue' by Adam Perry Lang
Nothing beats a slow roasted pork shoulder, cooked on indirect heat with a nice dry rub of herbs, salt and pepper and brown sugar. I always make my own tangy barbecue sauce and homemade rolls. The pork always comes out tender, juicy and delicious and the "bark" of the meat is extremely flavorful.
Top Chef's Spike Mendelsohn Opening D.C. Pizzeria
You have to go outside DC to get the best pizza. Primo Italiano in Reston, VA just outside DC has the best pizza by far.
I also strongly recommend Crozet Pizza outside of Charlottesville if you are ever in that area. You need a reservation because they only cook one pizza at a time.
Cook the Book: Grilled Corn on the Cob
This is worth trying, but I would never leave the husks on. As another commenter stated, it defeats the purpose of cooking on the grill. The corn will steam if you soak it and cook it in the husks. It's much better if you just completely shuck and cook directly on the grates until the corn starts to char to your liking.
I recommend using a garlic-habanero butter, as well, but I will try this recipe some time.
Grilling: Tomatillo Salsa
This was delicious, but I would chop the onion a little finer next time I make it. I made it a bit to chunky, but the roasted flavor was superb.

Wrap the whole thing in ground sausage, sort of like a scotch egg.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
I love my Korean clay pots (use mine for kimchi Jjigae). They make "one pot" cooking easy.
Video: How to Eat a Chicken Wing
I'm from Buffalo originally and I learned early on (from my Pops) that the only real way to eat a wing is to put the entire thing in your mouth and work it around for a while until you pull out a clean bone.
De-boning a chicken wing? Get real.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
Great post! Soon dooboo is the perfect bubbling bowl of spicy umami goodness! I want to buy a Korean clay pot, but do I need to season it like a wok or cast iron skillet? and is there any proper way to clean it? oh and one more thing, what's your favorite stock to use for soon dooboo because i made it one time with anchovy broth and it was too bland.
Would You Eat This Lobster?
What a great marketing opportunity. Keep the Big Boy Alive! Put this lobster on display and l make the best of it.

Chichi can come over anytime as dungeness crab are in my front yard here in Oregon so to speak.Should I try crab or clams?
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
@b0tn0t - I agree, the tubes are much better. I always use the Korean soondooboo tubes.
'Iron Chef America' Competes at the White House in January
Just to clarify, the NY Times article states that Michelle Obama is not competing, but rather revealing the secret ingredient which is omg spoiler alert....organic produce from the White House. I would have liked to see Michelle Obama go head to head with any of the three. But nope, the white house chef is battling on her behalf, I guess.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
Designruby: Yes, use your enameled cast iron. Whenever I am serving guests and I run out of tofu pots, I bust out my little Descowares and they do the trick. I wouldn't use a raw cast iron pot, though - that spicy broth would wear down your patina.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
NWcajun, you're extremely welcome. I am jealous of your being in Oregon. Forget ribeye! You could put geoduck and dungeness into your soondubu! I have always wanted to catch dungeness and dig for my own geoduck.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
can this be made without a claypot? I want to make it for me and my husband, can I do it in a cast iron pot or a enamel coated cast iron dutch oven/pot? I have everything to make this at home already, just need to figure out the cooking part...
Thanks! This recipe looks yummy!
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
I love soondubu but mu husband doesn't so I will definitely be making this at home for lunch when he's not here. I can see this being a last minute life-saver many times this winter.

So I suppose that just anyone can compete then? This is so ridiculous.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
Back from lunch and it was F#$&*@ng Fantastic!! Picked up a small chunk of ib eye at he market in my building and have everything else at home. And you're right, the homemade Soondubu paste was perfect. Thank you again.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
I have an old clay pot/bowl in my basement from a noodle phase I went through and I am going home to have this for lunch. It's cold here in Oregon and this looks perfect!!! Thank you

Hmm...I usually don't have a problem just using my finger and poking out that meat that gets stuck between the two bones.
However, after watching this and reading the comments, I think I may go with pulling the small bone out then proceeding with the eating with the big bone still in.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
thanks chichi.
your recipe made me go get the soon tofu at the restaurant right next to the korean market, as it will be a few days before i'm able to make this between work and all.
i'm now on the search for a heat diffuser. :)
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
Jennalynn: That's right - add the soondubu paste.
harmonica: Do you have a heat diffuser? It's a plate you can use to temper the heat of the electric stove. Mine looks something like this:
I have a gas stove, but clay pot experts recommend using a heat diffuser on top of an electric stove when cooking with clay pots.
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
so i saw this recipe and promptly went out to the korean market (bloor street, toronto) and got a clay pot for this. it occurred to me that i'm not sure if the pot (which looks pretty much exactly as it does in the pictures) can be used on the my apartment's electric stove. does anyone have any suggestions or advice?
Seriously Asian: Korean Soondubu Jjigae (Soft Tofu Stew)
I just got back from a trip to my Korean supermarket with a tube of extra soft tofu... I'm going to make this tonight.
I have one question. At step 5 in the directions you say "Add the tofu paste". Did you mean the Soondubu paste?
Thanks!

there's a wrong way to eat a chicken wing?
Video: How to Eat a Chicken Wing
For me, the fun of eating wings is the gnawing around! And trust me, I get all the meat out.
Video: How to Eat a Chicken Wing
I have my own technique. I push the middle section of meat up and bite it out, then rip the wing at one end to unfold it with the "hinge" at one end. Then eat the meat off of each bone. No cartilage consumption (blech) and I get all the meat off the bone.
Video: How to Eat a Chicken Wing
nice technique! but that's kinda like the infomercials where they make the conventional technique look impossible. like the woman who can't fry an egg without making a huge mess or using a ton of oil. i eat chicken wings without this technique and I don't leave all that meat on the bone.
Video: How to Eat a Chicken Wing
I've eaten wings like this for years. I usually just pinch the cartilage to separate it from the bones and use it as a handle to dip in blue cheese or hotsauce, then just bite the meat off and toss the cartilage bits. Quicker than eating other ways and much easier to dip. Sometimes the big bone doesn't always come out, so its almost like a drumette at that point.
Video: How to Eat a Chicken Wing
this is a great idea if you don't mind spending a full minute mashing the chicken between your fingers before you eat it. i'll stick with taking bites off the bone.
