Consider Bardwell Farm in West Pawlet, Vermont
It's also available at the McCarren Park greenmarket every Saturday
Young & Hungry: Three Days of Cheap Eats Equals One Zenkichi Splurge
funny i was just reading about zenkichi last night i thinking i should go there soon for a nice romantic date. thanks for confirming!
Radishes
Radishes are too spicy for me to eat buy themselves, but I like adding them as garnishes to things - tacos, salads, sandwiches. I especially like them on a sandwich with toasted bread, mayo, lettuce and chicken.
canning supplies available in NYC?
Brooklyn Kitchen off the Lorimer L stop in Brooklyn! They were inspired to open their kitchen goods shop in the first place because it was so hard to find canning materials in New York City, so they have plenty of stuff you need.
Let cookie dough rest, and other secrets
i hate sea salt on cookies! nothing worse than suddenly getting a huge hit of salt in my mouth when i'm just going for a gooey sweet cookie.
What to dip my french fries in...
mayonnaise spiked with white vinegar, salt, and pepper is divine with fries. or get fancy and make garlic scape aioli!
Cook the Book: Serves One
nibbles: nuts, toast, popcorn, chocolate chips. not the healthiest. but not much clean up either.
Fiore: Seriously Delicious Budget Italian
that calamari looks terrific. i live in the hood and def need to check this place out.
In Williamsburg, Diner and Its Burger Are Anything but Typical
I live in Williamsburg and love Diner, but my boyfriend has a prejudice against grass fed burgers so we've never tried it. Now I want to and soon! thanks for the tip!
Red Hook, Brooklyn Eats
I've only been to the Good Fork in Red Hook for dinner, and it was good, but check out whether they serve lunch. For a cheap casual lunch, you can go to Fairway and get nice sandwiches and eat them outside with a view of the Statue of Liberty if it's a nice day. When you're at LeNell's make sure you get Hudson Baby Bourbon - it is made at a small place in upstate New York with 100% NY State corn and it's one of my favorite bourbons!
Angelo's Pizza, Midtown
I love Angelo's, I don't care what you say. They also have a location with a nicer dining room (or so I hear bc I've never been to the 57th location) at Broadway and 53rd, near the David Letterman Show.
Cook the Book: Wine Bar Food
oysters of course
Ticket Giveaway: Japanese Food and Drink Demo and Tasting
spicy tuna roll, a guilty pleasure of mine
New Kids on the Block
When I was little my mom raised goats, and every spring, new kids would be born and we'd get to enjoy fresh goat milk and cheese. Mmmm. I didn't know how lucky I was.
Dinner Tonight: Asian-Flavored Roasted Cabbage
That sounds like a great idea, especially because I've been trying to think of something new to do with cabbage besides braising, since cabbage is one of the few vegetables still in season. I'll try it next time I get my hands on some cabbage. Thanks!
Spring-Inspired Ice Cream Sauces: Raspberry Sauce
um the fruit stands have been at the corner outside of my office all through winter. of course they are here year round, because it looks like all of their fruit is shipped in from thousands of miles away, and that's why i never bother with fruit stands.
Dinner Tonight: Kale, Onion and Cheddar Frittata
i keep meaning to make a frittata as a way to use up kale and then keep forgetting. thanks for the reminder! i think sausage would also be a good addition.
Kale: The Leafy Green Monster
I made hummus with kale the other day - a can of chickpeas, a couple cloves of garlic, a couple spoonfuls of tahini, lots of salt, and a few leaves of kale all thrown in the food processor - and voila. It tasted surprisingly great.
I also like kale in colcannon as mentioned above.
The best kale dish I've ever had is at Diner in Williamsburg - a salad of warm chiffonades of kale, a scattering of bacon and breadcrumbs, and a poached egg on top. I would love to try it at home but haven't yet figured out how they got the kale warm and slightly wilted without losing its texture for a salad.
Cook the Book: Win a Copy of 'Cook with Jamie'
My mom is a boring cook - I taught myself to cook once I left home.
Dinner Tonight: Kale, Onion and Cheddar Frittata
I made this tonight, It was delicious, I added some sundried tomatos to It OMG!!!This was so good I will make this over over and over again.I just started eatting Kale and this was a great start to eatting It. Thanks!!!!
Kale: The Leafy Green Monster
I just tried kale for the first time this weekend, in the form of the kale chips recipe that's making the rounds. It was good, though these also DO NOT SHRINK! I made a full baking pan of it, because I expected it to be like cauliflower when roasted - 1/2 a head shrinks down to 2 small servings. This didn't, so there was lots extra. Since I still have half a bunch left, I'll be trying it parboiled and sauteed with bacon.
Kale: The Leafy Green Monster
Another GOOD kale recipe is posted on: http://www.foodnetwork.com/
It's by Alton Brown. He calls it Christmas Soup. I made it yesterday and it is wonderful.

I love the self-referential corn on corn action of the corn ice cream sandwich. I could do without lime macerated cherries. I wonder if the corn keeps its crisp nature.
