Shad season is here. I'm happy, because I like shad roe a lot. I'm also happy because something I wrote about it got published in The Christian Science Monitor(pen name Ren Bejtman). (Can I wear a funny author's hat now and smoke Sobranies?)
Here's my story . It had a recipe with it which was edited out, for Shad Stuffed with Sorrel Sauce.
I'd love to hear your shad story too - catching or cooking!

If you had the opportunity to learn one thing about food, cooking, or any extension of those subjects (the connections are endless: writing/reading; sociology; politics; agriculture; art; media; restaurant operations etc) from the expert of your choice, what would that one thing be (and who would your chosen expert be)?

Michael Pollan comes in swinging on this issue in in this article in the NYT. He's getting closer to a KO in many ways, to my mind.
In the next post, some quotes from the article.

My daughter's friend visited us for dinner the other night. It was great fun, because she brought some dumplings she and her mother had made (Chinese dumplings - the family is from Southern China) and wanted to show us how to cook them, as my daughter had mentioned how much she loved dumplings.
As I seem to not be able to keep this within a 1500 character message, this will be continued in the next post. :)

You may be a day behind the South Koreans but this idea is simply too wonderful to pass by.
It was a Black Day for love in South Korea on Monday with lonely hearts trying to ease their pain by diving head first into bowls of noodles.
Beautiful. :)
