Cook the Book: Molto Batali

I like cooking for my elderly parents. They both appreciate the meals I prepare, and I like making them something different from the norm. And, my mom will do all the clean-up!

Garlic Dill Pickles

Great recipe! I have made three huge batches of garlic dills this summer, and I highly recommend some experimentation with the flavors!

I use white vinegar (not cider vinegar); I use fresh dill (lots of it); Kosher salt; I slice in quarters and halves or in slices. Some had more peper, another batch was more garlicky. I doubt sincerely that I would be able to make any pickle recipe without tweaking it just a little bit.

The batch I made this last weekend are a little more mild, and Ilike them, but have just gone back and added some more pickling spice. They're a work in progress!

Favorite grocery store...

There was (is) a grocery store/market in the Sogo Department Store in Hong Kong that fascinated me. I could spend hours there wandering about and come away with only a few items ....

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

Fresh ham, or Irish rashers with country fresh eggs for breakfast. Or, bacon cooked just right .. crispy but not burned. Yumo!

And, even the dogs get into the pork fat thing, with a teaspoon of bacon fat on their kibble. Talk about happy dogs!

Who Are Your Favorite Farmers at Farmers' Markets?

I love shopping the farmer's markets and road-side stands in my area. The quality and freshness is always wonderful. But the prices! In this day and age when money is tight, how can I justify $2.89/lb for South Carolina peaches when I can buy the same at the local Asian market for $.99/lb?

Cook the Book: '660 Curries' by Raghavan Iyer

A very dumpy restaurant in Lagos, Nigeria: pickled onions and cucumbers, wonderful butter chicken, and the smell of bug spray ever present. I really liked that restaurant, but won't be traveling back to Nigeria any time soon.
