The Food Lab: How To Make The Best Chili Ever
Great article! And very nice flavor thought process. And I am glad you eschewed ground beef and went with chopped seared short ribs. True bolognese sauce is made this way also, the braising breaking the beef down so that it falls apart into beautifully textured little strands. Ground beef does not easily allow for this and, as you mentioned, rarely ever browns. For my chili I like to try to get a little pork in there somewhere as well. But I will definitely use your chili pepper puree process in the future. Thanks!
The Food Lab: Is Good Pizza Really All About the Water?
Excellent article. Thank you for being so rigorous with such an important topic. I actually conducted my own pizza experiment with 'all purpose' vs. 'double zero' flour. Check it out here: www.demianrepucci.com Thanks again. And keep up the great work!
What's the Worst Burn You've Endured While Eating?
Eating dim sum in Hong Kong I bit into a soup dumpling that shot molten broth onto the roof of my mouth. Everyone at the table, including my wife, was laughing at my pain contorted face. They stopped laughing, of course, when I showed them the quarter-sized blister that then blew up there. But I guess it was a good excuse to eat ice cream popcicles for the next two days.

That's good news! I was just thinking about haggis. The wife went to St. Andrews so I have had lots of haggis here and in the UK. I love it. Although I will agree with other comments in that I could do without the lungs ('lights' as they are called in the UK). To me the best haggis is the heart/liver variety. Happy Burns Night!
