Cook the Book: 'Into the Vietnamese Kitchen'
I want to cook more using fresh, local and organic, ingredients where I know the farmer (or at least the guy at the Greenmarket), the butcher, the fish monger, etc. Moreover, I want to learn to apply ethnic techniques (Asian, Italian, etc) to their preparation!
Cook the Book: Fresh Lemon Mousse
Roasted chicken! Simple but true - some people have trouble keeping moist but fully cooked. I brine mine if I can and slather the meat under the skin with herbs and olive oil. I stuff the bird with lemon, garlic and herbs. Crazy simple and basic.

The dough looks great. I've been looking for a great at-home pizza dough!
Please forgive the ignorance, but what is baker's yeast? Is it different than the yeast packets one buys in the supermarket and if so, where can one find it?
Also, where do you recommend getting "oo" flour? I assume I can get it at Eataly or Amazon, but are there other places in NYC you recommend?
