Josh Ozersky in 'Edible Brooklyn'

There's a funny picture of Josh posing in the article with two knives. I wonder if its to ward off possible salt thieves?!

I don't think anyone should feel ashamed. If you have that many salts I think it's time to embrace your fancy pantsness.I don't know that I would kick my pepper out of it's mill though. I would just spring for another mill to keep it fresh ground.

Pickled Ramps

These look fantastic. I can't wait to pick some up and try this recipe and the ramp compound butter. Wow, I hope Raphael hasn't created a stampede to the ramp stand at Farmer's Market...

Wow. The second pic looks like a fried mystery bin. Maybe, the money is a prize... if you can identify what's in the metal pan. Step right up... look into the black oil and see your future.

'I Need an Agnolotti, I Need an Agnolotti, I Need an Agnolotti'

It really gives you an truly intimate sense of what it was like in TFL kitchen back in the day. It's an amazing article .One that could only be written by someone who was there personally and understood how serious & committed you need to be to achieve greatness. I can almost imagine the looks on the cooks faces as they stood there off the line watching him (probably with jaws dropped) as he single handedly replaced them all.Lucky, is the chef that gets to inspire while they have a great sous chef to be the tough one or "equal opportunity a.." and "make the magic happen".Thanks for posting this!

Best 'Top Chef' Headline Ever

It might be topped by just about anything that comes out of Anthony Bourdain's mouth when he is a guest judge. I wish he were on more often.

This clip is hilarious. Thanks. I must admit any shortage of butter makes me uneasy. Butter=happiness. There is no substitute for that.

Wow. That's almost exactly the same recipe that Tabla's Chef Floyd Cardoz has been using for years (it's also in his book "One Spice Two Spice"). And actually, the flavor profile (mustard seed, coriander and fennel) looks pretty Indian as well. Wonder if there was some uncredited sharing going on here?

Seriously, that looks like my husband.
Weird, my husband looks nothing like Rick Astlely.
