My south Jersey born & bred husband loves that stuff! I'm kinda grossed out by it.

SE Staff Picks: Maggie's Secret-Ingredient Oatmeal Cookies

This has nothing to do with the recipe, but holy crap Sweet & Sour Tongue! My mom used to make that. Seriously disgusting stuff--I had trouble even sitting at the dinner table with that big...tongue staring at me.

Extra-Flaky Scallion Pancakes

Just had these for dinner alongside a noodle salad--fabulous! Totally forgot to add salt, though, so without a dunk in the sauce they were a little bland. Next time I'll include it with the flour.

A Sandwich a Day: Best Pizza's Meatball Sub

OK, wow. Sandwich acquired, and it is gooood. It may in fact be a dangerous thing to live around the corner.

I am ridiculously happy to live around the corner. Lunchtime tomorrow can't come soon enough.

Gadgets: Sur La Table's Oil Mister

Another useless Misto here. I actually wrote to the company when it first started to squirt rather than spray, a few weeks after purchase. They told me to empty it out, fill to the fill line w/warm water, add a bit of dishwashing liquid, and squirt until it changed back to a spray. That works, for about a minute--a shpritz or two after I put oil in it, it goes right back to squirting. Bah.

How to Make Granita

Hey, it's granita season! I just posted a Strawberry-Balsamic one, and there's a Watermelon-Lime in the freezer right now. For both of those, I skipped the simple syrup--the fruit was super-sweet on its own. Next on the agenda: Straight-up Chocolate. http://wordstoeatby.blogspot.com/2010/07/strawberry-balsamic-granita.html

Equipment Shopping: N.Y. Cake & Baking Distributor

Another hater for NY Cake. I usually go to Sugarroom, in Sunnyside: http://www.sugarroom.com/eng/store.htm. Small, but the owner couldn't be nicer and they usually have what I'm looking for. I also heard about a place called Pattycakes in Jackson Heights, but I haven't had a chance to check it out yet.

How to Make No-Knead Pizza Dough (No-Knead Pizza 101)

Funny, I just blogged about Lahey's pizza dough yesterday! But the recipe I used, his Basic Pizza Dough, seems to be different from yours--it has only a single two-hour rise, and it wasn't sticky at all; in fact it was quite stiff. Loved the results: http://wordstoeatby.blogspot.com/2010/06/jim-laheys-mushroom-pizza.html

Openings: Vertuccio's, a New Brick-Oven Pizzeria in Williamsburg

Ordered from them last night which, granted, isn't the best way to judge, but the pizza was terrible. Artificial-tasting, goopy cheese, burned crust--and I don't mean burned as in nice charring. I mean BURNED. Whoever's making the pizza has no idea what he's doing.

Seriously Italian: Mint in Italian Cooking

Love this post. I'm not Italian (though my husband is) but I loves me some mint, so I'm thrilled to discover all these new-to-me ways to try it. Thanks!

Cook the Book: Noodle Kugel

Whoa, this is almost exactly my mom's recipe. I recently asked her to email it to me for Shavuot--for comparison's sake, here's hers (the topping is essentially the same):

16 ounces broad noodles
1 pound cottage cheese
1 pint sour cream
1 cup milk
1⁄2 cup butter, melted
1⁄2 cup sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1⁄2 cup raisins or cherries or crushed pineapple, drained

We always had it with pineapple and it was fantastic that way. The similarities fascinate me--she couldn't remember where she got it; I guess it was quite popular at some point.

But since I grew up kosher, I have to say that pairing this dairy kugel with brisket is a shonda ;)

Sunday Brunch: Kosher Salami and Eggs

This was one of my dad's specialties growing up--yum. It's even better if you saute a diced onion with the salami.
