Eating with Dieters

I don't think she's choosing healthier foods.

She would always go with the lower calorie one, despite its nutrition content. ..

Weird parental food preparation

One day i was sick due to a flu, and my mother wanted to make me chicken soup

i guess we ran out of whole chicken in my house, cuz when i looked down at my soup, a chicken foot was sticking right out.

@lemonfair—I was about to comment on the "if you still have one" too! Of course we've all had a meat grinder at one point in our lives; whether or not we kept it is the only question!

Lately, I fill up a plastic cup with milk, stack a bunch of Chocolate Chip Dunkers from Trader Joe's on a plate, and eat until my heart is contented with soggy milk-infused elongated cookies.

Even though I'm not the biggest mayo fan I do like some pimento cheese. My dad made some the other day with a dab of blue cheese in it. It was HEAVEN!

I love the direction in the recipe to use a meat grinder "if you still have one." We used to have meat grinders, before we had food processors. I still have one but it's been in the cellar for 20 years and I'm quite sure it has rusted beyond use and maybe beyond recognition.

For years I went to Martha's Vineyard in August and entertained
using a cookbook I bought at a local bakery--Scottish Bakehouse
Cookbook by Isabella White. I used it until the pages came unglued
and put a rubberband around it. Julia inspired me to just use a
cookbook as a starting point and create your own style. Thanks, Elaine

Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything is the dirtiest (aka most used) cookbook in my kitchen, I always find inspiration in Tom Valenti's Soups, Stews, and One-Pot Meals.

The French Chef, of course! When we were married 38 years ago, my husband-to-be's next door neighbor gave us a Swing Way can opener and a copy of The French Chef. I have been using both all these years, but the French Chef has many more miles on it. I was 19, had never cooked and knew back then, in a very un-feminist way, that the way to a man's heart was through his stomach. It worked! I love this book and always will.

Urban Italian: Simple Recipes and True Stories from a Life in Food, by Andrew Carmellini. I'm a vegetarian, but there are still plenty of recipes for me to try. I repeatedly take it out of the library. Please, someone buy me this book for Christmas!

An autographed copy of Craig Claiborne’s New York Times Cookbook. One evening after a school dance, friends descended on my parent’s home and one of them piped up, “Where’s the eggs benedict?” I popped into the kitchen and shortly produced something resembling poached eggs with Hollandaise. (One egg never made it past the side of the stove.) From that first effort, I prepared several other winning recipes like Knockwurst in beer. Fast forward 15 years and dozens of other cookbooks and I am co-author of Passport to New York Restaurants and auction correspondent for Wine Spectator.

My favorite cookbook is the 1950's edition of the Betty Crocker Cookbook. It has wonderful recipes for baking, especially cakes. Although there is a "revised, modern" Betty Crocker Cookbook, the 1950's edition was reissued unrevised some years ago. It's worth getting if you like real American home-style baking.

The James Beard Cookbook ~ my very first cookbook from which I learned that there was more to cooking than my mother's standard operating procedure of putting a hunk of meat under the broiler, plopping frozen vegies into pots of boiling water, and pitching potatoes into the oven to bake.

As a girl I read and reread Joy of Cooking but I also loved to read the more fantastical Bull Cookbook. (Bull Cook and Authentic Historical Recipes and Practices) by George Leonard Herter and Berthe E. Herter. In addition to world history and culinary pratter, the book includes recipes on everything from fried snapping turtle and scandinavian fish tongues to dressing a game bird, making jerky and dandelion wine.
