French in a Flash (Classic): Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée

You've completely lost me Kerry. What purpose does the towel serve? Is it or isn't it removed before adding the water to the baking dish?

Where Do You Get Your Favorite Pizza?

My favorite classic New York style pie is at Di Fara, hands down. Both the square pie with pepperoni, or plain round pie are impossible to beat. Neopolitian style I'd have to go with Co. in Chelsea as my favorite. I think their crust is just as good as Motorino, and I love the creative toppings they have. The popeye (fresh spinach) pie is simply amazing, as is the pie with shaved asparagus, tomme de savoie cheese, quail eggs and black truffles.

Condiments in Japan: So-su (Sauce)

Hydrolyzed protein is another way of listing MSG on the label without making it obvious.

Poll: What Lean-To-Fat Ratio Do You Prefer When Making Burgers?

When grinding my own I shoot for at least 70/30 meat/fat ratio, if not even higher with the fat. And of course I cook them exclusively in a skillet using clarified butter. If you want something low fat, don't eat a damn hamburger. Rather than destroy a great meal by attempting to lower the fat, I'd rather just east some well cooked chicken.

Gluten-Free Tuesday: Smoked Paprika

@skinnyfatty - I buy all my spices from Kalustyans in NYC (www.kalustyans.com). They have over 6 different varieties of smoked Paprika alone. I recommend skipping the clear glass jar and buying the cheaper plastic "pack." It's cheaper, and you don't want your spices in a clear jar regardless.

For storage I picked up a bunch of opaque brown glass screwtop jars from specialtyjar.com for less than $1 a piece. Your spices stay fresh longer, and you don't have to overpay for your spices because they come in a jar.
