Cook the Book: 'The Barcelona Cookbook'

Really loved Zarzuela in SF and Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba in Chicago. They'll do until I make it to Spain. :)

We grow and preserve all kinds of things, but I'm a sucker for regular old homemade pickles.

Cook the Book: 'Serious Barbecue' by Adam Perry Lang

The chickens and pork shoulder I smoked for Derby Day were superb. They disappeared as fast as I could pull them.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box

The boring old ham my family makes this time of year. Wouldn't make it myself, but it wouldn't be Christmas without it.

The smoked turkey I did for Thanksgiving this year. It was a thing of beauty.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box

Something I had from a street cart in Italy. I was afraid to ask what it was, exactly, but I can still taste it seven years later.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: D'Artagnan Boneless Heritage Ham

Good thick country ham on a bun, purchased at a little festival cart. A little mustard if I'm in that sort of mood, but usually not.

Do I have to choose? Right now the broccoli rabe is sounding good, but I'm feeling all healthy and garlic-deprived at the moment.

All of the dressings sound good, but it's my favorite part of the meal anyway, so I'm biased.

Cook the Book: 'Chocolate Epiphany'

A really top-notch brownie, warm and with some vanilla ice cream.

Cook the Book: 'The Best Barbecue on Earth'

Fond though I am of good old American BBQ, I'd have to branch out to the Caribbean or to South America.

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: 'Margaritas, Mojitos & More'

Mint and limes, but occasionally stalks of lemongrass. (I make some cocktails with lemongrass syrup.)

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: 'Roast Chicken and Other Stories'

I've found that when I travel within the country and people hear that I'm from Kentucky, they usually think of the Derby or occasionally basketball or bluegrass music. When I travel outside the US, though, they only know about the fried chicken.

Snack to the Future: The Col-Pop, an All-in-One Chicken Nugget and Soda Cup: The Colpop

It needs a little hanging cup on the side (like the cupholders that used to go on car windows) for dipping sauce.

Love fresh salads the most, but really love salads that include a bit of fresh fruit! From strawberries and raspberries to blueberries and apples. Yum!

my favorite summer recipe is chocolate pie, i just make some chocolate pudding and put it in a pie crust with whipped cream on top, then chill it, it's nice and cold on a hot summer day!

My favorite summer recipe is a cold veggie pizza. Not with tomato sauce and stuff, but a croissant roll crust with a cream cheese dill spread on the crust and then broccoli and cauliflower and whatever other veggies you can get cut up small. Finished up with a nice bit of cheddar cheese on top.
