I think tequila would pair better with the honey than vodka, don't you think?

Essentials: Feeding Your Friends (With Migas)

Just last week I had a "panini party" with friends - very low stress but a lot of fun. We put the press on one end of the table, set up platters of meat/cheese/veg and made a little activity out of it. Really a lot of fun.

Did Robb Walsh Find the Best Burger in Texas?

I like that theory, a lot. I have noticed my local Whole Foods has started stocking jalapeno cheddar burgers in the meat case and while I've yet to try the beef version (the turkey ones were fantastic) I bet there is a lot of truth to his theory.

Cook the Book: 'Roast Chicken and Other Stories'

Once upon a time in Southern California, a middle-aged mother tossed a chicken on a beer can, having seen it done on the Food Network just days before. After just a few minutes, the backyard was filled with black smoke. The back fence still has scorch marks!

Essentials: Roast Chicken

I think its fascinating how strong people feel about their roast chicken recipes! I've tried most of the methods listed above and been pretty happy with the results every time, though my go-to is a Jamie Oliver adaptation - sage, chopped pancetta, salt and pepper mixed into butter and shoved under the breast skin and then roasted till done. It's delicious.

Ningyo-Yaki: Molded Japanese Cakes

I was in Tokyo many years ago and there were literally dozens of people standing outside a shack where they were making these cakes. Obviously, we got in line thinking that it had to be good - why else would all these people be waiting? Unfortunately, I'm not one for red bean paste and ended up feeding mine to the pigeons. But they certainly were cute!

Cook the Book: Oven-'Fried' Sweet Potatoes

a-ha! I've been trying to make sweet potato fries at home for the past few weeks and can never get the crispy results I've seen in restaurants. I'll try turning down the oven and letting them dry out. Many thanks!

Dinner Tonight: Curried Sautéed Cauliflower

I like the idea of sauteeing the cauliflower. I usually roast mine: link because its so much easier!

I'm also a big fan of turmeric because I like the yellow color so much. Will have to try this method as well!
