Cook the Book: Cowgirl Cuisine
When I go home, I always ask my mom to make oxtail soup and nian gao (chinese rice cakes), among other tasty tasty things. we always ate nian gao at chinese new year, and her oxtail soup is just the tastiest stuff ever. I have fond memories of eating bowls and bowls of it.
Cook the Book: 'Pure Dessert'
brownies. soft chocolately magic.
Morimoto's Cookbook Can Be Yours This Weekend
sakai for the original, mario for the american version. i am always drooling before the end of the show.
Favorite "unlikely" food combos?
my roommate in college always told me peanut and roast beef go really well together in a sandwich. it's actually not half bad!
Cook the Book: 'Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant'
when there isn't much in the fridge, i just end up scrambling 4-5 eggs and mixing in whatever's around (cheese, meats, veggies). my friends tell me it's kind of gross and probably bad for me, but i really like it!
Cook the Book: 'The Breakaway Cook'
dill - it amazes me and i can't get enough
Cook the Book: 'Cucina del Sole'
pizza margherita always makes me happy :)

Who's your most/least favorite food personality on Food Channel?
i love mario! his food always looks amazing, and he's so knowledgeable and fun. i'm so jealous of the people who get to chat with him at the counter and EAT.
like everyone else, i can't stand sandra lee. the worst thing is turning the channel to the food network and seeing her! "change the channel! change the channel!"
Question of the Day: Snap! We love crisp food.
i really like the crispy rice at the bottom of one of those really hot stone bowls you get at korean restaurants. after a tasty meal, i use my spoon to break it up and eat it like chips.
Eating in China- any tips?
i spent a summer in beijing and found that almost all the food i ate was delicious! just avoid really touristy places and take a walk around. if you see lots of locals eating somewhere, that's always a good sign. but i found most of the quieter restaurants were still really tasty. my favorite dishes in beijing were actually all the eggplant dishes. they are oh so oily, but oh so soft and delicious. just as a side note, it took me a few weeks to adjust to the amount of oil the people in beijing cook with. i mean, i'm chinese and eat chinese food everyday, but never with so much oil in the U.S. my stomach wasn't so happy at first, so you might have to be prepared for that!
Cook the Book: 'The Perfect Scoop'
my favorite frozen dessert has to be the banana ice cream at holotta ice cream in honolulu. it has the perfect texture and flavor, and no other ice cream has come close to it.
Cookbook Giveaway: 'Super Natural Cooking'
i love fresh fruits too, especially pineapples and oranges
Have you tried any new ice cream flavors lately?
i tried asparagus ice cream. it was not too tasty though, probably because it tasted very much like asparagus. yuck! i did have the most amazing life-changing banana ice cream though. it was at a place called holotta ice cream on oahu (pearlridge mall).
Cookbook Giveaway: 'A Twist of the Wrist'
canned chicken broth. i love the comfort of soup, but i don't have time to make actually make my own chicken broth. sometimes i can use it in stir-fry sauces too for some flavor.
'On Top of Spaghetti' Book Giveaway
i have a special place in my heart/stomach for vegetarian lasagna. homemade sauce, lots of cheese, and a nice assortment of tasty veggies: irresistable!
Who's your most/least favorite food personality on Food Channel?
I used to watch a lot of FN back in the early days. I enjoyed Jack McDavid, Mario Batali, Sara Moulton. Now, I never watch FN. The turning point, for me, was when Rachel Ray became a "star" (gag).
Now if I want to learn something about cooking, I tune in PBS, and watch Jacques Pepin, Lidia, or the two ladies on America's Test Kitchen.
Who's your most/least favorite food personality on Food Channel?
Least: Ina Garten; from her voice to her food, personality, friends, etc. . .she drives me insane.
Most: Giada Di Laurentiis, I have a girl crush on her.
Who's your most/least favorite food personality on Food Channel?
I have to agree with many comments here.I have studied culinary arts for years and these housewife cook wannabees do not know the difference between a good Veloute and a bowl of gravy.
Where does the food netwok find these people?
Sandra Lee gets so excited over her booze,you would think she was an alcoholic! Rachael Ray acts like the host of Sesame Street with her ignorant, goofy, childish sayings. Paula Dean serves so much fat in her food, it is more rich than her fake,overpronounced accent which is comparable to fingernails on a chalkboard.Giada dresses like a street walker and tries to sound italian with her fancy pronouncing og food.What happened to credible culinarians? are all we are left with are women's day readers like these four women who think they are teaching cooking? please!!!
Who's your most/least favorite food personality on Food Channel?
My faves: Alton Brown, Anne Burrell, Ina Garten
Likes: Jaime O., Tyler F. Micheal Chirello (sp?)
My not so faves: Ray Ray, Sunny Anderson and the Neeleys...I started out liking Ray but her overexposure did me in...I haven't seen a thing on Sunny's show that I would make, and I can't stand her delivery, and the Neeleys...I like things they make but that lovey dovey crap really turns me off...and of course Sandra goes without saying...
Who's your most/least favorite food personality on Food Channel?
My favorite is Ina and my very least favorite is Giada. Can Giada's tops get any lower without this show being rated as porn? I have nothing at all against showing some cleavage, but please...this is a cooking show, and if her cooking isn't good enough to stand on its own, they should take her off the air. Actually, I tried several of her recipes and thought they we just "okay". Her books are loaded with photos of her rather than of the food, and she is way too full of herself. She should stop the annoying Italian accent when she pronounces Italian food items. She was born and raised in California for goodness sakes!

Chik-Fil-A's original chicken sandwich. Honey and hot sauce make it maybe the best thing ever
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Baron VonFunburger's Haunted Castle Cavalcade
With chronic low blood pressure, fast food has helped my health more than hurt it. I think of myself as a fast food fry expert. Top of my list are Steak n' Shake's, and fresh, hot McD's fries.

Fries. Dunno why, I've had good non-fast food fries, but there's just something about them.

are five guys and chipotle/moe's/qdoba fast food? they're all a cut above. when it comes to your less expensive fast food, i'm all about an arby's roast beef with a jamocha shake on the side.
