Cook the Book: 'Whole Grains: Every Day, Every Way'

Bulgar wheat! Fast like couscous, but healthier, versatile like rice, and good to put into salads.

Weekend Book Giveaway: 'The Elements of Cooking'

learning to trust your own judgment rather than referring to the recipe 500 times.

Weekend Book Giveaway: Service Included

From my days as a waiter:

It was a very busy dinner service, Saturday night at a very fancy French-American place in Virginia

Two ladies in their late 20's were having a very very slow dinner, sharing a soup, wanting their shared entree to be held, etc. So slow that we went through two turns as they were still eating their entrees. They must have occupied that table for about three and a half hours.

Turns out that they were taking all of that extra time reading each others tarot cards!

Cook the Book: 'Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant'

Sauteed greens with a piece of whatever fish looks good at the store, it's easy, fast, and you can do it in one pan. Plus you can put whatever kind of spices so it can be Indianish, Lebanese-ish, French, or whatever.
