Cook the Book: 'Plenty'
this is a tough one... but I have to say that a whole new side of lettuce opened up to me when I realized I could either grill it or use it in a stir fry!

Cook the Book: 'Street Food of India'
the best late-night street food? found at 4am in la paz, bolivia: beef heart anticuchos, skewered alongside a few potatoes, grilled over an open flame and served with a spicy peanut sauce. heaven!!
Cook the Book: 'The New Portuguese Table'
indonesian and vietnamese.... a smattering of knowledge about both, but would love to learn more
Cook the Book: 'The Tex-Mex Grill and Backyard Barbacoa Cookbook'
sour cream! guacamole! all types of spicy salsas! slathered over a breakfast burrito. booyah.
Serious Eats Giveaway: $50 Gift Certificates from Threadless
i took a bite out of crime and kinda wanted seconds
Cook the Book: Cooking Under Pressure
hands down, food processor... though I have to say that my _newest_ and most consistently useful kitchen tool has been my pressure cooker! wouldn't live without it, especially at high altitude.
Cook the Book: 'Bobby Flay's Burgers, Fries & Shakes'
my fantastic butcher once sold me a blend of ground beef, pork and veal, which made for the most delicious home-made burger I've eaten. save for when I added some chopped bacon right into the blend... gone. died. heaven.
Cook the Book: 'Rustic Fruit Desserts'
homemade rhubarb and strawberry anything! add a hint of ginger, maple syrup and vanilla ice cream, and I'm in heaven.
Cook the Book: 'Beyond the Great Wall'
the fresh seafood that I ate in kribi, cameroun, is to this day (a few years later) one of my most memorable food experiences abroad. I can still taste the simply, deliciously prepared fish that we ate on the pier, made all the more better by eating with our fingers. wow. I'm now living in a land-locked country, and it's killing me!
Cook the Book: 'Simple Italian Snacks'
definitely an improvised antipasto plate... cheeses, cured meats, roasted peppers, olives, pickles etc. easy and delicious.
Cook the Book: 'Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics'
I suppose they're not technically dishes, but essential to any meal: I'm usually the go-to for all things sauces and dressings
Cook the Book: 'Mario Batali Italian Grill'
mustard, olive oil, a sprinkling of sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. delicioso.
Cook the Book: Nigella Express
Pre-washing fresh herbs as soon as I purchase them... a small thing, but let's me add instant fresh flavour in a pinch!
Serious Easter Artisanal Chocolate Egg Giveaway
kielbasa... (which obviously tastes better with a little holy water sprinkled on i!!)
Cook the Book: 'Panini Express'
can't get bresaola, arugula and asiago out of my head... yum.
Cook the Book: 'Roast Chicken and Other Stories'
The first time I roasted a chicken (for company, no less), I got on the phone with a friend of mine who was older and wiser in all things food and drink. It was a painful step by step process for this idiot, made all the more hilarious on the other side of the phone when my friend told me I needed to spread the legs as wide as possible, and reach inside. Little did her mother, who happened to be near her, know that she was having me look for giblets!
Valentine's Day Chocolate Giveaway
Definitely dark. Minimum 70%!
Cook the Book: 'The Bacon Cookbook'
bacon wrapped scallops. heaven.
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Two Peter Luger Steaks
I have to go with porterhouse... though a good rib roast comes a close second
Seriously Delicious Holiday Food Giveaway: Russ & Daughters
truffled egg toast at 'ino!
