Serious Eats: colleen7583's Profile

Thanks! I forgot about budget =) I'll be dining solo and spending my own money, but would like to do one higher end meal. I don't know quite where I'm staying yet, but love New York and certainly won't mind bouncing all over the city.

Which pizza stone should I buy?

Thank you all so much! I'll keep an eye out for the tilesor a thicker stone. The tiles might be harder to come by since I live in DC and don't have a car, so Home Depot isn't super accessible. Maybe it's time for a Zipcar membership!

Hot Dog of the Week: Puka Dog

Puka dogs are wonderful! These and Leonard's malasadas are some of the foods I miss most since moving back to the mainland.

Cook the Book: 'Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies'

My best: a 12 layer cake I made a couple of month's ago for a friend's engagement party. Think Smith Island cake, except with white almond cake, raspberry jam and whipped cream filling, and Swiss meringue buttercream frosting.

I arrived on Madrid on my 22nd birthday and had friends take me on a tapas crawl. My first tastes of chorizo, serrano ham, and myriad other delicious Spanish foods.

Cook the Book: 'Beyond the Great Wall'

Spain was the first European country I ever visited. I arrived in Spain on the afternoon of my 22nd birthday and that night friends took me out on a tapas crawl. It was my first experience eating in a foreign country and gave me my first tastes of Serrano ham and chorizo, something that forever changed the way I look at food. One of the best birthdays ever!

Cook the Book: 'Simple Fresh Southern'

I have made my great grandmother's carrot and zucchini o-shaped loaf for my in-laws for the past three years. I surround the loaf with and put in the middle tons of roasted broccoli - definitely a crowd pleaser, as it goes fantastic with the turkey and mashed potatoes and all the other classic sides!

Impossible to have just one, so the two would be cornbread dressing and Emmitt Smith's Sweet Potatoe Casserole.

My favorite "side" is the nut bread that my mother used to make for her entire married life. She found the recipe in a newspaper in 1948. It is chock-full of walnuts! Thanks!
