Cook the Book: 'The Food Life'

There is no really good supermarket where I live! There is decent produce at El Mariachi Super Mercado, and an excellent Asian market is Super Cao Nguyen, but there is no winner among the general purpose supermarkets around here. I usually shop at Crest for the prices and the decent selection of local products, but I prefer to buy most of my food from the local farmer's market and coop.

Bob Tuschman, why does Food Network repeat Iron Chef America several times during the week and yet let the new series of the original Iron Chef (Japan) go to Fine Living (where I can't watch it unless I double my cable bill)?

Cook the Book: The Cornbread Gospels

Usually only have it at home for some reason. Like others have commented, Jiffy in a box is just as good or better than mine turns out.

For me, it's my husband. He's a whiz in the kitchen and I have learned so much from him. Best of all, he's a mentor that's readily available!

My mom at first. She would let me make mini pies in pyrex cups when she made full pies so I could make and eat my own.

My mentors were first, my Mother, and recently, Bobby Flay. He gives a good example of tweaking a recipe every Throwdown!

Ina Garten's or Jacques Pepin's books are the cookbooks I turn to when I need a special recipe.
