@kjeweler i feel like a dry, hot pan would adequately toast them... here in Korea, they basically grill them over a coals. they're already cooked, per se, after you defrost them, you can toast them.

@mprize we're talking here about Korean dduk which look like this: http://www.maangchi.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/sliced-rice-cake2.jpg

i loooooooove dduk, nothing beats the texture!

i have never even heard of this recipe until i spotted your talk topic, looks really interesting!

perfect mashed potatoes!

yay pumpkin cheesecake!

wahhhhhhhhhh im making these vegan, they'll be delicious! mmm agave nectar ftw!

Cranberries are essential. Mmmmm cranberry sauce with champagne and currents!!!! I think I might have to swap the champagne with some locally-produced sparking wine though :-D

Hmm I beg to differ, my meat-eating friend. Though I now live outside the United States, I could name you at least 10 of my friends whose families still operate family farms. Gradually, they are being put out of business due to buyouts by corporation farms. And when I say put out of business I mean they are put OUT of business; not being managed by a corporation.

And yes, they are evil. CAFO's? Are you kidding? Those aren't evil? Have you blatantly ignored the negative impact these cattle-cities have on the environment? Come on now.

Thankfully there's a burgeoning movement to return to the as you put it in quotes, "family farm." I assure you, they do exist.

Individuals can do much to educate those around them.

oh dear, my fellow wisconsinites.... what were you thinking?! *tear

obviously they didn't understand that pollan is against CORPORATION farms, not the small, local dairy farmer.

I second @jennywenny 's motion. Processed food? Blech.

those look AMAZING. yummmmmmm
