Sopaipillas: Little Fried Pillows of Deliciousness

These remind me of when I had beignets at Cafe Du Monde, in New Orleans. They were the most delicious things I had ever tasted, of course the atmosphere didn't hurt either. How can one bite create a memory that can last a lifetime? Thanks Lisa for the memory.

Food Fight: Food Network Awards to Debut Sunday

I still love watching the Food Network here in Montreal. I will admit to watching the Barefoot Contessa episodes in repeats as well. Ina Garten is great and I love to watch her cook. I find that it rejeuvenates my desire to cook recipes that I haven't cooked for a long time and I have now prefected making scones that are so deliciously light and fluffy (love that buttermilk)that my family all ask for them and I have even make Challah Bread!!! Next recipe will be the coconut cupcakes adapted to mini cupcakes. I can't and won't live without the Food Network!!!

No time? when I buy a BBQ chicken from the market I store the carcass in a freezer bag and pop them in the freezer to be used later to make chicken stock. Nothing smells more like home than making chicken stock.

I really enjoy reading about Ina Garten and am looking forward to seeing her new kitchen and new episodes of cooking segments.

Meeting Mario

Very nice interview Adam, I enjoyed reading it very much, especially your question on dealing with criticism. You can do one better than Mario and learn to put the critics words in perspective. Laugh them off, and keep doing what you enjoy. Je t'aime beaucoup. Merci mon ami.

I can completely relate to you. MY grandmother's family is from New Mexico and I can still remember the first time I had these delicious little treats. I didn't know what they were and I didn't want to try them but I did anyway and I have been in love with them since them. We never have to worry about them going cold or to waste.

@ corinne "Why am I craving lobster at 8 AM??"

i'm pretty much craving lobster 24 x 7... that and steak... and cream puffs... and ....

Nice video but that's way too much mayo from what I could see. You really want just enough to hold things together. Also, invest in a nutcracker so you won't have to use your knife blade (!) to break the claw.

AGTV: (Lobster) Roll Your Own

Awesome video, and a reminder of the wonderful lobster rolls I enjoyed on the Maine coast last year (I want to move in and live at Harraseeket Lunch in South Falmouth, Maine). I love the simple combination of ingredients in your lobster roll.

One small thing...you were hitting the lobster claw with the blade of your knife? Auuugh! Maybe the back of the knife might have been better :-)

From Serious Eats

AGTV: (Lobster) Roll Your Own

I don't know how you can chop up all the lobster for the roll without stuff handfuls of tail and claw meat in your mouth and threatening people with a knife if they try and stop you. thats how I make a lobster roll.

You're awful, awful cute Adam!

Oh, by the way...it was done early because there is NO WAY that that was a 2 and a half pound lobster. But that was a darn fine looking lobster roll.

Sopaipillas: Little Fried Pillows of Deliciousness

I was reading Bill Buford's book Heat this weekend and he writes about learning to make pasta in a small mountain town in Italy. He feels a loss because He no longer has contact with the women and her aunts that taught him. He writes, " It is, I concluded, a side effect of this kind of food, one that's handed down from one generation to another, often in conditions of adversity, that you end up thinking of the dead, that the very stuff that sustains you tastes somehow of mortality." This passage touched me and I immediately thought of it as I read your piece. Always enjoy reading your stuff!

my siblings and i used to eat this all the time in new mexico when we were little. they're the best when they're still warm and melt-in-your-mouthy (not greasy), drizzled with honey and cinnamon. is this a southwestern thing? in my mind it is.

Food Fight: Food Network Awards to Debut Sunday

when are these awards being aired? went on the website and din't find a thing.
so no mention of the james beard award, they will make their own awards for their own idiot hosts. let me guess...rachael ray - biggest mouth, most annoying. giada...how low can my neckline be before i burn them in a sauteeing accident?
i hate the food network. so disappointing, since i enjoyed them a lot when they first started.

i have been using a pressure cooker with no discrenable difference (i think), and i have stock in like an hour. i have been thinking lately of duck stock ie magret, confit & stock!

but the best is this: ikea sells these giant ice cube trays. (the ice cubes are giant, not the trays). if you freeze the stock in them each is 1/2 cup. this is super handy. of course, because i am insane i vacum-pack them by the 6. i would hate to frostify our fine work.

Adam, this is a huge step in your development as a cook! Now that you have done this, you can really play around with the recipe and put your own personal spin on it next time. When I make chicken stock, I always roast the onion, celery and carrots first to get a really rich, sweet flavor and a beautiful deep color. Pick and choose from all the comments and do what suits you and have fun. Congratulations!

For me, the difference between stock in a box, and homemade is the gelatin. Homemade stock has that nice gelatinous texture that makes everything you cook with it have a better mouthfeel. I had to make soup today, and because I'm both sick as a dog and housesitting, I had to use stock in a box. It was still pretty good (carmelizing the onions a lot helps) but it didn't have that same texture as my stock in the freezer at home in Montana.

I've never thought about it before, but they definitely do have the same sort of feel, although there's something about ina that just seems friendlier (not that nigella comes across as unfriendly).
