Rhubarb Baked Oatmeal
Jen this looks fantastic!
2010 James Beard Awards: New York, New York
What a great night for everyone! Someday I'll attend, but for now I'll just enjoy the stories and pictures.
The 5 Commandments of Sautéing Food
Love this article!
Chef Boyardee Pizza Kit Pizza: Yes, It's Still Available
I remember seeing the box at the store years ago. I think my first reaction was a gag reflex so I never purchased a kit. Seems like they aren't too bad though, huh?
Serious Cheese: What Happens When a Curd Nerd Becomes Lactose Intolerant?
I'm going through the same thing right now. I don't know how I'm going to live without cheeeeeeeeese. Almost everything in my fridge is cheese!
I feel like I'm going to starve to death right now lol.
have pizza making questions?
Great thread! Thanks. I make a lot of pizzas, but new tricks and tips always help me get better.
In Videos: Michael Bay Eating a Bowl of Cereal (Parody)
That was fun and silly. Can't stop giggling....
Vacation Cooking
This likely won't help now but I thought I'd tell you about it. When I travel I take "The Ultimate RV Cookbook, Recipes for the Traveling Chef" with me. The book is sectioned into three days worth of meals with shopping lists. It makes creating meals much easier when I'm traveling by RV or in a hotel with a mini kitchen.
Cook the Book: 'Food Matters: A Guide to Conscious Eating'
Although I call Bittman's "How to Cook Everything Vegetarian" my green bible, it was an article in his blog which has made the biggest impact on me.
He was traveling on the Northwest coast and attempting to keep a food diary. There was one line that got me and it was something close to this; "I know this day is going to end in a hamburger". And it did, and not a good one evidently. His human side really came through.
Bittman's humanity is what I think of when I open the green bible. It makes this battle to live and eat well seem like more of a collective attempt now.
Help! My Future Housemate is a Vegetarian
My myspace was created for people in your situation. I'm a photographer and cook. If you go through my albums you'll find a couple hundred examples of vegetarian food ideas. Having something visual to look at helps. www.myspace.com/Laura_Flowers
Mixed Review: Barefoot Contessa Homemade Marshmallow Mix
I am reminded of one of my favorite books, "Marshmallows" by Eileen Talanian. It has recipes for all kinds of marshmallows and other fluffy marshmallow related goodies.
The chocolate ones are heavenly but if you make them cover your mixer well. They splatter worse than the rest for some reason!
Am I the only one on the planet who dislikes ___, or loves ___?
I think the only foods I won't eat are those that are spoiled or dangerous when not cooked. My friends and family make fun of me for claiming everything to be "my favorite!".
I would love to try Balut or something similarly interesting.
What to do with: leftovers you don't want
The dogs, the random single friend who stops over, the fridge to be hidden until moldy, or if I'm feeling bold they go in the trash!
What did you end up eating or serving for the Super Bowl?
Steak chili that had been cooking for hours, corn bread, Oreo fudge cookie brownies, and grapefruit and peach (from home canned peaches) martinis.
Hello Kitty Zombie Birthday Cake
This cake is amazing!! I don't hate Hello Kitty, but this cake makes me really happy lol. It's like Hello Kitty gone Nightmare Before Christmas.
The Worst Table in the House: Have You Ever Gotten It?
Yeah ok so that isn't a table peeve, but it is my personal restaurant one. I don't really care where I sit.
The Worst Table in the House: Have You Ever Gotten It?
Bad service! There is rarely a good reason for it unless half the staff doesn't show up, or something freakish like that. Even on crazy insane busy nights I was able to keep people happy, drinks filled, and rush hot food to a table as fast as the cooks could get it out. I just moved faster, gossiped less, and my pockets were nicely padded with tips for my work.
Serious Cheese: Super Bowl Beer and Cheese Fondue
Lol I hope those baby bottles in the background are for babies and not some kinda new saucing technique!
The cheese looks phenomenal as do those bright orange fondue pots.
Do You Always Eat Breakfast for Breakfast?
I had a beautiful panini with Italian fontina, swiss, roasted asparagus, and ham for breakfast this morning with a cup of coffee. That's breakfast food right lol?
Bacon-Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches: A Lunchbox Favorite with a Twist
My brain just exploded.... I must unleash these on our city hall for the next cookie day. Do you think they will arrest me?
